Link between red and processed meats and type 2 diabetes found by global study

CNN  

Sign up for CNN’s Eat, But Better: Mediterranean Style. Regularly eating red and processed meats in particular is associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes, according to an analysis of data from 31 study cohorts published Tuesday in the journal The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology. The study is the most comprehensive to date showing the link between processed meat and unprocessed red meat with type 2 diabetes, said senior study author Dr. Nita Forouhi, professor of population health and nutrition at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom, in an email. The team also accounted for factors including “diet quality, physical activity, smoking, alcohol intake, energy intake and body mass index that could impact the results and that may otherwise exaggerate or mask the relationship of meat and type 2 diabetes,” Forouhi added. “Current dietary guidance also recommends replacing red and processed meats with meats such as poultry, in addition to reducing overall meat consumption using alternatives such as peas, beans, lentils and tofu.” Although there is not clear research yet into whether poultry consumption and type 2 diabetes risk are connected, the recent study showed that replacing red meat and processed meats with poultry did result in a lowered risk of developing type 2 diabetes, Mulrooney added.
