There's a reason why pork is a forbidden meat product, in some Holy books, such as the Quran, Torah and also the bible, although many today ignore these laws. One reason is that Pork is an unclean animal and according to Dr. Lawrence Wilson, pork especially, carries trichina worm eggs or ova that are not destroyed by cooking.
Now, I know that we cannot believe everything we read in the newspaper however always keep in mind that there is always some truth to the news, whether it be only a small or bigger percentage of the truth. There is often a few slippage, among the lies. This may sound negative to some of you, however what it negative is trying to suppress the truth. Being able to see and hear the truth is to have awareness and shed the denial that often blinds us.
For example, I would categorize the recent news, from the World Health Organization (WHO), pretty much close to the truth, since according to their report, it states that just 50g of processed meat a day (less than 2 slices of bacon) increased the chance of getting colorectal cancer by 18%. Processed meats were places in the “Group 1” list, alongside asbestos and tobacco products.
The report also stated that red meats in general were “probably carcinogenic,” while at the same time stressing that meat also has some health benefits (which, Dr. Wilson advises us to eat red meat, preferably lamb, only twice a week, because too much of it, as prescribed in the Paleo diet, for example, can often lead to cancer eventually.)
WHO's evidence review is explained in an article published in The Lancet and you can read more here.
Myself, I have stayed away from pork, for some years, in part due to too many family members, uncles, ants, cousins, dying from colon cancer or else having colon cancer. I know that pork is a very tasty food, but is it really worth eating a food that is not healthy and carries a worm that affects also the brain? read more here
