High
consumption of red meat and processed meat has been associated with increased
risk of several chronic diseases. A meta-analysis was published in the American
Journal of Epidemiology Feb 1 2014 t summarizing the evidence from
prospective studies on red meat and processed meat consumption in relationship
to all-cause mortality.
Pertinent
studies were identified by searching PubMed through May 2013 and by reviewing
the reference lists of retrieved articles. Prospective studies that reported
relative risks with 95% confidence intervals for the association of red meat or
processed meat consumption with all-cause mortality were eligible.
