you know there was a there was a study that was done in Europe that looked at nearly half a million people and it divided them into uh a cohort that were eating more than 160 grams per day of uh of protein from red meat and processed meat and it compared them to people that were eating virtually none 20 G per day so again I like when they do this because you're at least taking like the most extremes um and indeed there was a difference but it was relatively small right so even under that setting um there was the difference between a 1.7 uh increase in the uh increase in the risk of cancer uh versus a 1.33 uh uh percent risk absolute risk for um coloral cancer over the period of study so just again what does that mean it means that the difference in Risk between the super high protein consuming meat group and the low group was 0 uh uh 4% of actual percentage points
