Red meat consumption and cancer:

Red meat has been found to be associated with various forms of cancer in this multisite case-control study of 11 cancer sites in Uruguay. High consumption of red meat was associated with an increased cancer risk of the oral cavity and pharynx (odds ratio [OR]= 3.65), esophagus (OR= 3.36), larynx (OR=2.91), stomach (OR= 2.19), colorectum (OR= 3.83), lung (OR= 2.17), breast (OR= 1.97), prostate (OR= 1.87), bladder (OR= 2.11) and kidney (OR= 2.72). Lamb was also associated with increased cancer risk. Eating a lot of processed meat was also linked to an increased risk of cancers of the esophagus (OR= 1.63), larynx (OR= 1.84), stomach (OR= 1.62), colorectum (OR= 2.15), lung (OR= 1.70) and breast (OR= 1.53).
