People who avoid bacon, sausage, and alcohol are less likely to get cancer than others. In addition to keeping away from pork and booze, the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) recommends other lifestyle habits which can also reduce the risk of developing the disease.
In updated health guidelines from the WCRF, staying away from bacon and alcohol can lower a person’s chance of getting cancer by as much as 40 percent. A Business Insider report about the WCRF advice noted processed meat and booze, even in small amounts, can lead to many different types of cancer.
Another substantial risk factor for cancer is obesity. The WCRF points out that being overweight leads to 12 types of the disease, including cancers of the bowel, gallbladder, prostate, and stomach. Ten years ago when the guidelines were last updated, obesity was listed as only causing seven types of the disease.
