No questions regarding the populational risks as the small percentages would shine with the big numbers.
WHO's recommendations remain the same for decades indeed: lower processed and red meat, eat chicken and fiber.
What's your point exactly?
My point is that raising risks of getting hit by a car, or other accidental causes of injury and death beyond the individual’s control, is a deflection.
Cancer is the leading cause of death in Canada.
Full stop.
No one single risk factor is responsible for that. Building the evidence base to be able to both inform individual behaviour but also to inform food safety regulations is important.
