Every time I'm in a medical office talking about diet to doctors and nurses they all say the same thing - shift to a plant-based diet asap. Plus, they are big on avoiding nitrates - essentially an ingredient in processed meat like ham, sausage etc.

couldn't manage plant-based myself, but i only eat two actual meals a day and don't eat processed meats generally, but i think diet is probaby the biggest clue in whats driving the cancer rates, fiat food all around

Understood. I still rely heavily on chicken, but I've reduced red meat to maybe once every two months. I was using pork as a heavy alternative, but the nitrates on most pork products are heavy, so it looks like that's going to get limited as well now.

yeah, seems like modern food is basically a minefield
