A new study comparing red meat and vegetarian diets has found that eating red meat is linked with DNA damage that raises the risk of colon cancer. Almost 17,000 people die from the disease each year.
Previous research has also concluded that regular meat eaters are significantly more likely to develop bowel cancer. Another recent study has pointed to the connection between red meat and breast cancer as well.
The current study findings can be found in the journal Cancer Research.
