Is Red Meat Bad For Your Health?
If you have a family history of cancer then you are considered a high risk individual for manifesting the disease in the future but even if your family history is clear you still need to be extra careful.. why? Because the percentages of cancer patients are going up and numbers don't lie.
Several of the most common and aggressive cancers have to do with your gastrointestinal system. The function of your body that processes the food you eat, distributes it around your body as needed, and does its best to dump the leftover toxins. The intake of a Western diet with a high amount of red meat is associated with a high risk for colon cancer. It is possible that the iron carrier of red meat, is involved in diet-induced colonic epithelial damage, resulting in increased epithelial proliferation which supposedly increases the risk for colon cancer. In NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study it was found that people whose red meat intake was in the top fifth of the range of intakes recorded in the study (the highest quintile of consumption) had an increased risk of developing colorectal, liver, lung, and esophageal cancer when compared with people in the lowest quintile of consumption.
Another study suggests that intakes of red meat and dairy products appear to be related to increased risk of metastatic prostate cancer.
Not only will eliminating these foods lower your cancer risk, you’re going to feel (and look) better from the inside out.
Now that we know should we change our diet? We sure need to do so in order to preserve ourselves and our loved ones.
It is now a question of taking action and discipline.

Unless you're the one who wrote this, than it looks a lot like you've plagiarized from the original author of the link above. In addition to that, I highly doubt the validity of these points. Especially The one about GMO's. Don't spread FUD about GMO's. Monsanto may be a shit company, but GMO's are a good thing for the world overall.
GMOs are not bad for health but they are quite bad for overall biodiversity and genetic variability of crops. Old crop varieties are being decimated (not just by GMOs but also other commercial strains) and with them comes a real threat to food security because the ability of crop to resist some disease is in direct correlation with it's genetic diversity. Take bananas - almost all commercial bananas are the same, they are considered very much threatened because of that. Some say they are already extinct but they don't know it yet :) GMs are making this problem much worse and science is doing nothing to solve this problem... its actually causing it.
I actually read a lot of scientific papers about carcinogen foods today and I think that this article was spot on. My point was foods that can cause cancer and we are not aware of. Everybody knows that bacon and fried foods are bad for health, but many people would think that salmon is a healthy food which is not true if it is farmed.
I had seen a research about GMO's the previous year and it said that many neurologist think that they are neurotoxic substances and can cause parkinson's or tumors.
