And there's studies that show that when you eat the processed meat, that is more likely to damage the DNA of your gut epithelial cells.
And that's probably the beginning of the path to precancerous lesions.
Red meat that's unprocessed doesn't really do that to the same degree, if at all.

You can eat it with vegetables.
And that significantly mitigates the formation of any of these potentially carcinogenic compounds.
So we're kind of back to this, I think, very reasonable, very sensible perspective that, hey, look,
These are foods that humans have always eaten throughout our history.
Like eat some plants, eat some meat and eat very few processed foods and you're going to do fine.
