7 THINGS EATING BEEF(hotdogs, sauages,burgers,jerky) WILL DO TO YOU

We all know too much of everything is bad

Too much sugar.

Too much carb..

Too much proteins even meat...yes red meat.

A lot of us have uncles, aunties, and grannies who smoked heavily, ate all sort of junk including burger on daily basis but yet just turned 96 years, no sign of cancer, heart diseases or stroke...well I really have one answer to that...all fingers are not equal.

If you are wondering if red meat is good for you...after all , ALL DIE NA DIE as my naija brethren will say, then you should read this.

Iya basira.. please give me one pomo, 2 shaki, 3 roundabout and how much is your meat again...oya add seven (7)

If you do this every day then you have one or all of the following coming.

Your blood vessels become hardens:

A compound found in red meat has been found to harden the blood vessel or clog your arteries.

when this happens , it simply means blood cannot flow easily...I will  say like a gutter filled with refuse, the result is stagnant water( no free flow)

Short Life Span:

Sad but am sure Iya Basira will  want you to live longer so she can sell more. In that case you have to be wise...eat all things moderately including red meat and pomo.

Eating a healthier protein such as fish, poultry lowers the risk of  sudden death.

You can get sick from Colic:

Meat is most likely to contain e.coli,  a micro-organism which is found on beef and raw diary foods. This could cause symptoms of cholera like dehydration, abdominal cramps and kidney failure.

Eating meat ups your risk of type 2 Diabetes:

Diets rich in animal products when consumed daily lead to central obesity and Type 2 diabetes.

Colon and Brain disease:

Meat contains a whole lot of iron which when eaten in  excess can raise the level of iron in the brain and cause a person to develop Alzheimer disease.

Eating a lot of red meat (Suya) daily can bring about Colorectal Cancer:

Cancer cell growth of the colon and the rectum. This is very common to individuals with genetic predisposition to cancer. If your dad or mum have had or has cancer. If you have this gene, eating and digesting meat may trigger a response of inflammation. Fish and poultry wards off these cancers.

Breast and Ovarian cancer:

Meat is full of harmful hormones. These hormones boost breast cancer.

Any one with the above disease may or maynot have a history of daily consumption of red meat above 15g.
