WHO announces that red meat, including beef, pork and lamb, and processed meats are a carcinogen that increase the risk of certain types of cancer, most specifically colon cancer. And while the Twitterers are abundant, what hasn’t been specified is whether it is the actual ‘meat’, or the chemicals, hormones, fillers, antibiotics, and GMO’s used in these products… Because we’ve been eating meat for thousands of years…
But I’m not sure which statement was more deplorably …stated… the one by WHO or the one by our own high school diploma self ascribed medical professional, Gwyneth Paltrow. For despite her multiple vices, she has the audacity to invoke that bras cause breast cancer! Arrogance and a clear lack of education or intellect could possibly be the culprit in such a narrative.
The WHO study focuses mostly on processed meats, but includes red meat to a lesser degree. The thought being that when red meats are cooked at a temperature greater than 400′, a carcinogenic hydrocarbon is created that WHO states is cancer causing. However, they also state they don’t know why… which leads to another new study regarding chemicals in our personal hygiene products.
The key word is ‘chemicals’. And the new test shows that it is a combination of chemicals that cause the carcinogenic reaction, not the individual chemicals themselves. Parabens when exposed to heregulins (a common growth factor gene protein) caused cancer cells to multiply 100 times faster. Bottom line, it is the interaction of chemicals that stimulates cancer.
Looking at the chemicals in processed foods:
A number of the ingredients that can be found in processed foods in the US are banned in Europe, including: food dyes, the fat substitute Olestra, brominated vegetable oil, potassium bromate (aka brominanted flour), Azodicarbonamide, BHA, BHT, rBGH, rBST and arsenic. YUM!
For example, ever read the ingredient list for Bologna? Ingredients: mechanically separated chicken, pork, water, corn syrup, contains less than 2 percent of salt, sodium lactate, flavor, sodium phosphates, autolyzed yeast, sodium diacetate, sodium erythorbate (made from sugar), sodium nitrate, dextrose, extractives of paprika, potassium phosphate, sugar and potassium chloride.
ARGHHH!
And that doesn’t even begin to extract the chemicals and hormones and antibiotics in the ‘pork’, or beef. Do you know what ‘mechanically separated chicken’ includes? Why of course, it is a pink paste that can include organs, sexual glands and bone marrow. Yummy! All the other ingredients are supposed to make the pink paste – taste palatable.
Even more disconcerting is the fact that the American Cancer Society clearly states that they DO NOT know what causes colon cancer. They can offer some risk factors, all of which have absolutely nothing to do with food, they do note that certain tendencies can increase a person’s risk, like being overweight, eating a diet that is very high in meat and meat products, drinking excessively, smoking and a sedentary lifestyle.
Exactly who is WHO and why are they coming out with this catastrophic statement now?
They are an offshoot of the UN established after WWII. Their most recent intervention was with respect to the Ebola virus which garnered them some criticism for their bureaucracy, staffing quality, failing financing and ‘structure’. While they are technically working for global health, their money and direction comes from the governments who pay them the most: US, Japan and Germany.
But WHO is not without its own corruption. In 2010, it was discovered that a Finnish WHO advisor on vaccines received $9million from GlaxoSmithKline, a big pharma corporation. In fact, there have been six WHO researchers who received funds from GlaxoSmithKline, or Roche, or Merck, or Sanofi Pasteur, Chiron, Medimmune, Novartis, RW Johnson, Baxter, and SmithKline Beechum.
There was Dr. Osterhouse, nicknamed Dr. Flu, who attempted mass vaccination only to discover he was backed by TEN different big pharma corporations. In the last eight years, WHO has been riddled with corruption after corruption probe, and their reputation has sunk into the bowels of the toilet. Time and again investigative journalists have found that the organization is responsible for fraud, deception, manipulation and coersion.
And yet, the announcement regarding red meat and processed foods was given a drum-roll by the press who likened their statement to something nearly godly factual when it was drivel at best addressing the issue with all the intellect of – Gwyneth Paltrowism.
I wonder if there is a vaccine on the horizon that WHO will promote, or even mandate, to offset these red meat/processed food effects? I wonder if big pharma has a new and improved drug that will soon hit the markets emphasizing its Vunderdrug attributes of minimizing the carcinogen effects of red meat/processed meat? Hordes of bacon and red meat will be back on the tables laden with hormones and chemicals and antibiotics to desensitize the truth, and we will go back to ‘normal’, albeit with a new prescription drug in our medicine cabinet.
It should be noted that WHO is pro GMO’s, pro vaccines, and let’s not forget that WHO advocated for formula over breast milk! Like all science, it comes and goes, sometimes with a yawn and sometimes with a tsunami. What you can be sure of is there is another agenda waiting…
