A controversial study says cutting down on sausages, mince, steak and all other forms of red or processed meat is a waste of time for most people.
the evidence is so weak, they could not be sure the risks were real

The opinion, anyway, will change again. Probably by next year.

The only constant recommendation is that one must take plenty of roughage for bowel-grip.

My Doctor Uncle Bruv (in the days before Muesli) was fond of saying that Al-Bran was the only cereal to buy. With any other one should only eat the packaging as the cardboard has more fibre than the contents.

(Should that not be 'drip under pressure'?)

An afterthought. Why have we started off in Stormy Weather? Is it that the guns of poor nutrition will be brought into the Brexit battle? Are those Froggie devils attempting to unbalance our diet (Copyright: Goons)?

You are almost right. Here is the correct one....

An 'EX' is something that 'was'

A 'SPURT' is a 'drip under pressure' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is safer to start everything in Stormy Weather, then you will not be chastised if someone says Boris is a Pillock. The Moderators re very strict.

Varley & Stephen, You're right. I'll never make a stand-up (K)

Someone remind me, is animal fat good or bad right now (01/10/2019).

Why bother FJ. If the roast beef is approved today it'll be clinically haram again by the time the dripping's set.

Eat drink and be merry. Tomorrow we die.

The irony is both studies are correct, with the original study it implied that with a large number of participants the proportion that ate a quantity of processed meat some would suffer a heightened risk of bowel cancer. The second suggested that on an individual basis the heightened risk was statistically very low.
