Just one slice of bacon a day leads to insanity

Eating one slice of bacon every day increases the probability of developing senile dementia by 44%. This is another study on the dangers of processed meat.

Consumption of processed meat in the form of hot dogs, bacon and sausage significantly increases the risk of developing senile dementia, as the study showed.

His findings suggest that even one slice of bacon each day increases the risk of developing this incurable disease by a staggering 44%. And some of us can't think of a day without sausages, sausages or burgers.

However, meat-eaters should not despair, as the scientists who carried out this study also found that eating unprocessed meat, including beef, pork and lamb, can protect against senile dementia.

During the observations, people who received 25 g of processed meat per day had a 44% higher risk of developing senile dementia, taking into account all other risk factors. But those who received 50 g of unprocessed meat were almost 20% less likely to experience dementia.

Scientists from the University of Leeds investigated a possible link between meat consumption and senile dementia based on information from 500 000 people.

Dementia remains an incurable disease, and when it already occurs, it is still impossible not only to cure it, but even to slow it down. In this regard, it is extremely important to engage in prevention and to know about the risk factors of this disease and how to reduce its danger.
