A new study investigates the link between processed meat, sugar-sweetened beverages, and trans fatty acids, to diseases such as cancer, heart disease and type 2 diabetes.
I agree with you, but using a relative that does something unhealthy that got old to prove a point is not really scientific nor right.
We absolutely know that smoking causes cancer is a really unhealthy habit, yet we see people that smoke reach very high age. However the average smoker lives a shorter life.
But I can conclude that its not so dangerous as to lead to imminent death / disability within 30 years. So how “unsafe” is eating processed meat anyway?
The article makes like you’re doomed to develop colon cancer if you mom ever fed you a single bite of hamburger helper as a kid. Obviously, that’s a ridiculous conclusion.

You’re right, its a suboptimal example.
