The Dangers Of Hot Dogs And Processed Meats

The article Simple Rules for Healthy Eating by Aaron E. Carroll which mainly focuses on what you should and shouldn’t eat more of. It also mentions how putting salt, fats, butter, and oil into your food is a necessity. This article makes me think about how eating heavily processed foods may be causing the worst health outcomes. I agree with what is being said in this article because the author list most of the food products that may be causing you or a loved ones to have health problems. Also, it mentions when eating at a restaurant you should take into consideration that not all of your food may be unprocessed. It also mentions how you shouldn’t judge what other people are eating because everyone has the rights to do what they want no matter

In populations where there was consumption of unprocessed red meat and processed meats, showed higher rates of developing cancer than those who have a high fiber, plant based diet like those of vegetarian or vegan diet. A study conducted in Germany showed that those with a plant based diet had a 40% reduced chance of developing cancer versus those who were regular meat eaters. Processed meat are products including: bacon, hot dogs, and deli meats.

But no less than in our DNA, the sights, scents, and rituals of meat eating are in our cultural DNA" (The War of Delicious pg. 5). Meat in today's culture is no longer healthy for humans, we do not realize this because as it states in the quote, 'eating meat is in our cultural DNA'. Meat is no longer healthy for humans because it is all processed and has artificial materials in it. "On October 26, the WHO officially identified processed meat as a Group 1 carcinogen, meaning the quality of the evidence firmly links to cancer" (The War of Delicious pg.1). Cancer?! Who knew that what we, as humans, were eating could actually give us cancer and could kill us? Some of the reasons processed meats cause cancer are because of nitrates and nitrites, heme iron, and high temperatures. When handling meat we must be extremely cautious when it comes to high temperatures and meats it comes very dangerous because meat that is cooked at high heat can produce carcinogens. What is the cancer risk of eating processed meats? The cancer risk is if you eat 50 grams per day of processed meats. This

In this article Nicholas Kristof, is talking about on how Tyson Foods and other meat factories are harming human health and creating tons of waste around the country. He argues on how companies do not care about the effect of animal growth since speeding up the process for the animals can affect human health. He also states that the farmers struggle to make a living. He states that chicken back then was a “luxury dish more expensive than beef.” Chicken used to cost $6.48 a pound and now it is worth $1.57 a pound, cheaper than before, and that is because the production has increased and so there’s much more chicken available. According to Kristof, the cost went down because “scientific breeding reduced the length of time needed to raise a chicken

Meat, everyone loves meat. Well, except for vegetarians. I for one am a meat lover; if you asked me to choose between a healthy salad and an oily heart attack burger, I would go for the burger. I eat fast food once in a while, and I do like the burgers. At times, I would wonder where the meat comes from since it tastes different from burgers that come from actual restaurants. Many people other than me eat fast food daily and have become a habit for them. In addition, due to the rise in costumers, fast food industries opened many more restaurants, which led to a higher demand of meat. Due to this high demand for meat, meat industries are starting to use various ways to produce meat quickly. However, speeding up the processes can cause meat

We firmly believe that much of the food that harms the health of present-day generations is rooted in a diet that is highly processed, which is loaded with chemical preservatives and a great source of toxicity.

The meat industry has become quite the debate relating to the quality of the meat and its production in the past couple years. Even in the story My Year of Meats, which was during the 20th century, it exemplifies and gives various examples of how meat is potentially bad for your health and our environment. Of course, many would probably disagree on the grounds that “the average American eats 270 pounds of meat per year” (Walsh 1.5). However, is eating meat the only way it can be harmful to us? Regards to those who don’t eat meat, it still has and still will, largely impact their lives because of the way it is being produced because of the emissions and environmental problems that can arise.

Their are these chemicals called Carcinogens that are often found in food. They are not in the food naturally, but i thought it was still important to include into my conclusion since it is something that happens everyday. Carcinogens is a broad topic considering they are also found in cigarettes, it is surprising that they cold also be found in our food. However, Carcinogens like Dioxin are caused to be in your food by the plastic that surrounds some foods and drinks. Preventing this is pretty simple don't freeze your plastic water bottles as this releases dioxins in the plastic and don't heat fat-containing food in the microwave using plastic containers. Other Carcinogens such as Aflatoxins are detected occasionally in milk, cheese, corn, peanuts, cottonseed, nuts, almonds, figs, spices, and a variety of other foods and feeds this is caused by the feed given to the animals or put into the soil to improve efficiency. Another thing about food and cancer is; “ Eating large amounts of processed meats may increase the risk of colon cancer secondary to nitrates added to the food. that is why you see nitrate free lunch meat and hot dogs now.” Also, a report from the American Cancer Society stated that "the regular consumption of charred well-done meat showed an increase in the risk of pancreatic cancer". This could also relate back to obesity causing cancer. Overall

One must admit that a nice wrapper is not a sign of qualitative product inside. Fast food restaurants offer us the food of such kind. It is well-known that eating food with carcinogenic leads to obesity. Here we see how marketers decide what we have to eat, show us the chain of production of our usual food. In addition, fast food is not only harm but also dangerous in terms of sanitation.

Consuming meat products especially processed and red meats can cause many types of cancers and diseases as well as other health concerns. Yet, despite the dangers, meats are easily available everywhere, replenishing it every time it runs low.

Nitrates and nitrites are added to processed meat in order to preserve their color and prolong their shelf life. When exposed to the protein, or amino acids, in these meats, they are capable of forming compounds called nitrosamines when exposed to high temperatures (Healthy Child Healthy World). Cooking processed meat creates the perfect conditions for nitrosamines, which can be lethal carcinogens. More recently, the government has mandated that the manufacturers add Vitamin C, which inhibits nitrosamine formation (National Center for Biotechnology Information). This shows that the processed meats being manufactured daily have been regulated to significantly decrease the probability of the negative effects of chemicals such as nitrate and nitrite. By moderation and awareness, these issues can easily be avoided and even seem insignificant. An individual could manage their consumption of meat and choose organic, lean subsitutes, or even consume more

Meat is home to bacteria, carcinogens and other contaminants that may stay inside you for several years to come. A lot of meat is infamously contaminated with bacteria such as E. coli, campylobacter or listeria, especially if it’s undercooked. To prevent the animals from becoming too sick from these bacteria before their slaughtering, they are treated with pharmaceuticals. Disastrously, this abuse of pharmaceuticals has only lead to the evolution of more resistant super-bacteria which cannot be killed with conventional antibiotics. In the end, when these super-bacteria reach and infect our bodies, we have nothing to fight them with. These are only a few ways we are harmed directly by eating meat.

Heavily processed foods make up 59% of calorie intake in the average American diet. Food is meant to provide nutrients that humans need to live and stay healthy. Modern day processed foods practically defeat the purpose of food because they provide little nutrients and can cause various illnesses in humans. These negative health effects are primarily caused by the toxic chemicals that are hidden in food. Sadly, the majority of Americans eat processed foods without considering the toxic chemicals the food contains.

Studies from UK cancers researched found that 66/1000 of people get or developed bowel cancers, but of a 1000 there are 55 that get bowel cancers from eating red meat according to test run by UK cancers researched. This group is part of who’s international Agency for research on cancer classifies on prassede. Meat altered through salting, curing, or smoke which is part of a group called carcinogen, this group has cancer-causing agents that is included in smoking, asbestos. Red meat isn’t as bad as that but it linking to cancer agents like smoking. They are looking for what red meat has the most chance of causing cancers for example; beef,veal,mutton , lamb are all classified as carcinogenic. IARC studies show in a health tip about how much
