A new study has found that eating processed meats such as ham, bacon and sausages four times a week can significantly worsen asthma symptoms. The statement is based on a survey of 1,000 people who said in pre-filled questionnaires about their eating habits that they consumed large amounts of sausages.
A study commissioned by the World Health Organization found that frequent consumption of smoked and processed meats can increase the risk of worsening asthma symptoms such as shortness of breath or chest tightness by up to 76%, the results show.
The main reason for this is the preservatives used in the production of bacon and other smoked and processed meats. The butcher's industry uses mainly different types of nitrates, which cause breathing problems.
The main task of the study was to determine the effect of canned and processed meats on the body, as well as to understand their effect in asthmatics who have passed the age of 35. The researchers also found that high intake of such products can cause asthma symptoms in people who do not suffer from asthma.
Half of the participants had asthma, while the rest were clinically healthy. Exacerbations, asthma attacks, shortness of breath and chest pain were seen in people with the disease during the study. The others also had primary asthma symptoms such as shortness of breath and shortness of breath.
In this type of meat is placed a large amount of salt, preservatives and various flavor modifiers. Most of these products keep the meat fresh and give it a fresh commercial look. However, in addition to asthma, previous studies have found that they also cause various cancers.
Data from the World Health Organization show that consuming only 50 grams of processed meat per day increases the risk of colon cancer by 18 percent, lung - by 20 percent, and brain - by 12 percent.
Last but not least, but logically, bacon and similar products increase the risk of obesity by 50 percent.
