According to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition stated that the fat-free meat contributes important in a heart healthy diet and the benefits that can be obtained from the white meat. However, you have to be careful when buying meat for consumption, particularly processed meat.
The results were published in the journal BMC Medicine says that eating excessive processed meat can shorten life. Studies involving approximately half a million men and women aged 35 to 70 years in 10 countries on the European continent lasted for 1 year.
The participants were asked to fill out questionnaires about diet consumed over a span of 1 year. Provide researchers with a specific classification questions concerning the consumption of meat. Whether it's red meat, white, and processed. The meats include beef, goat, sheep, horses to pigs. While white meat including chicken, turkey, rabbit, until duck.
Researchers believe that the high consumption of processed meat is said if it exceeds 160 grams per day. The survey found more than 5000 participants died from heart disease and artery disorders, more than 9000 of cancer, and more than 1000 people have respiratory problems.
Sabine Rohrmann, one of the researchers from the University of Zurich stated, "Overall, we estimate that 3 percent of premature deaths each year could be prevented if people ate less than 20 grams per day of processed meats," as reported by Redorbith.
From these results the researchers concluded that the excessive consumption of processed meat can increase the risk of death from heart disease by 72 percent and from cancer by 11 percent.
Distinguishing non-processed meat and processed is 'tricky'. But not the means can not be distinguished at all. Non-processed meat can be regarded as fresh meat, which means it does not matter or other substances mixed because its main ingredient is the meat itself.
Because non-processed meat do not use preservatives, then the shelf-life shorter than processed meat. While the meat is processed and preserved meat has other ingredients mixed uses, including food preservatives, so the relatively longer shelf-life. Processed meats have also been through a variety of other processes, such as salting, curing, and the addition of some chemicals.
