Just one sausage a day could dramatically increase the risk of bowel cancer, experts say. Why one Sausage?
The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) warned that eating 1.8oz (50g) of processed meat a day - the equivalent of one sausage or three rashers of bacon - raises the likelihood of the cancer by a fifth, research shows.
Processed meats involve those preserved by smoking, salting and any other method apart from freezing, include bacon, ham, pastrami, salami and hot dogs.
Meat is a good source of protein as well as other nutrients. However, these benefits have to be balanced against increasing evidence that red and processed meats raise the risk of cancers including bowel cancer.
Experts say red meat need not be eaten every day and that 18oz (500g) a week in cooked weight (or 27oz/750g uncooked weight) is sufficient.
That is the equivalent of three steaks, although the definition of red meat covers pork and lamb as well as beef.
