Actress Maral Farjad Opened Up About Battling Cancer

Many studies have consistently linked red meat and processed meats (cold cuts, sausages and hot dogs, as well as processed poultry products) with colorectal cancer.  The more meat consumed, the higher the risk. A review of studies specifically looking at meat consumption and colorectal cancer risk found that the risk increased 36 percent for every 3½ ounces of red meat and 28 percent for every 1½ to 2 ounces of processed meat consumed each day.
