researchers believe that the meat diet is associated with more mortality than vegetarian. For those who eat more than 160 grams of meat products daily, the likelihood of leaving a living in advance is much higher.

Studies of foreign scientists have shown that modern people need to reduce the rate of consumption of meat that exist today. Experts recommend limiting meat consumption 14 grams a day and more actively consume fruits, vegetables, nuts and legumes. The transition to such nutrition will avoid about 11 million premature deaths per year related to meat consumption-in particular, cancer and cardiovascular disease, experts state.

After 13 years of half a million, the man found out: the likelihood of dying was prematurely higher than those who ate more than 160 grams of meat products daily. Increase the tendency for early mortality among consumers of smoking and overweight. About 10 thousand died of cancer, 5.5 thousand-from diseases of the cardiovascular property. Among the participants who were vegetarians or restricted meat consumption 50 g per day, about 8,000 people died in the same period, 2.5 thousand of them-from cardiovascular disease. Its harm is explained by the features of human digestion: when absorbing such components of meat as choline, lecithin and carnitine, trimethylamine N-oxide is formed. High concentrations of this substance lead to the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.
