A report from the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) – which slammed red meat as being a killer has now turned on pork, and particularly cured pork.
However, another report trotted out a few days ago warns that the addition of folic acid to food could increase the incidence of bowel, prostate and breast cancer in 20 years.
After years of encouraging pregnant mothers to take extra folic acid, a new report now suggests they’ll all sucumb to cancers of the digestive system and not see their little ones grow up.
The strange thing is that although we mustn’t eat this, we must lose weight, eat no fat, drink little alcohol, and really stop leading such awful unhealthy gluttonous lives, insurance companies have just published a report, drawn from actuarial figures, predicting that half of all current 30-year-olds can expect to live to be 100. This odd world in which everything we do is killing us quickly but everyone is living longer can only encourage a bemused and fatalistic shrug.
