Processed meats linked to stomach cancer
"STOCKHOLM, Sweden (UPI) -- A Swedish-led study suggests the more processed meat a person consumes, the greater the likelihood of developing stomach cancer.
"However, the researchers said there`s not enough evidence to call processed meats a cause of stomach cancer, WebMD.com reported.
"Led by Susanna Larsson of the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, researchers reviewed 15 studies on stomach cancer and processed meats -- bacon, sausage, hot dogs, salami, ham, and smoked or cured meat."
