Hate to be the Debbie Downer of your video Owen, but this is not healthy. As much as I like cheese, if you ate that entire serving you would be swimming in saturated fat. Salami? Hah! Organic or not, it is the opposite of healthy. And lunch meats. Well, here's an update from newly published research:
According to the results of a large, prospective study reported in the March 23 issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine, there is a:
1.) An increased risk for death with increased red and processed meat consumption.
2.) An increased risk for cancer with increased red meat intake.
3.) A increased risk for cardiovascular death with increased meat intake.
4.) An increased risk for cancer and cardiovascular mortality with consumption of processed meat.
5.) An increased risk of death from injury in men who consume red meat.
6.) An increased risk of sudden death in men who consume red meat.

Red meat included all types of beef and pork such as bacon, beef, cold cuts, hamburgers, hotdogs, steak, and meats in pizza, lasagna, and stew.

Processed meats could include either red or white meats in the form of sandwich meats or cold cuts as well as bacon, red meat and poultry sausages, and regular hotdogs and low-fat hotdogs made from poultry.

Why we should increase our WHITE MEAT intake: White meat has the opposite effect of red meat --> it actually decreased mortality!

White meat included chicken, turkey, and fish along with poultry cold cuts, canned tuna, and low-fat hotdogs.
