Research shows that eating large amounts of meat and cheese can be as harmful to health as smoking

Is too much meat and cheese in diet as harmful to health as smoking?But according to the magazine CellMetabolism The published research shows that the University of Southern California studies have found that high protein content in diets may harm your health.

Eating hamburgers or other forms of animal protein will increase growth hormone levels in the body.Author of the paper ValterLongo( Director of the Institute of Longevity at the University of Southern California) believes that in the children's stage, IGF-1 Helps promote growth and development, but high levels of hormones can be associated with an increased risk of cancer and other elderly diseases in adulthood.

Recognize IGF-1 After the increase in mortality rate, Longo He and his colleagues began to study ways to naturally lower the body's hormone levels.

Longo Towards FoxNews.com "Our question is, 'Is it OK to reduce the intake of protein?"'"

To analyze the effects of animal-derived protein diets on mortality, the researchers used the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES)Data collected for 6381 adults over 50 years of age.They divided all into three groups: people who took 20% of their daily calories from protein;People who consume 10-20% of their daily calories from protein;and people with less than 10% of their dietary protein intake.

“We see the same impact as we imagined.” Longo express.“We found that there were very different situations in people with low protein intake, with overall mortality, cancer and diabetes patients down.”

Overall, during the study period, people with excessive protein content in their diet were 4 times more likely to die from cancer than people with low protein content, and 74% more likely to die from other causes.

The researchers also looked at the effects of a low-protein diet on a group of mice, analyzing how low-protein or high-protein plays a role in preventing melanoma and breast cancer development.

“We started with established cancer, but we were not expecting that low-protein diets in 10 to 30% of animals can prevent cancer from developing.” Longo express.“We expect progress to slow down, but we don’t necessarily ensure that this effect is: Even if 20,000 cancer cells are injected, these cancer cells do not really appear in 30% of mice and disappear.”

They also pointed out that a low-protein diet can lower mice's IGF-1, Researchers believe this may be the reason why this diet has a protective effect.

Longo Noted, “If yours IGF-1 Lower... cells will be immune to DNA destroy.”

But too high animal-based protein content in the diet seems to be harmful to health, but legumes don’t seem to have that high risk of plant-based protein.However, the chances of dying from cancer in a diet with high plant-based protein content will still be tripled, and the overall increase in mortality is not very obvious.

“Plant proteins have different combinations of acines from animal proteins. All plant proteins are not the same, and each plant has a different combination, " Longo "We have learned that for some of these, their combination will be reduced IGF-1…… and other genes that contribute to geriatric or other age-related diseases.“

but Longo It is pointed out that after entering middle age, some people will find that injecting an animal protein-rich diet has protective effects.Since the age of 64, human body IGF-1 It is a natural trend of reducing weight, resulting in weak body constitution, which is very dangerous for people who are already consuming low protein.

“We think it may be better to eat more foods with lower protein content to increase protein intake after 65, those who start to lose weight and start to lose weight IGF-1 This is especially true for lower people," Longo He also pointed out that the body may not be able to digest and absorb protein very effectively during people's aging process.“But it’s not a problem for people who are already at medium and high levels of intake.”

Longo It is recommended that generally 9-10% of daily calories should be obtained from protein, i.e. 36 grams per pound of body weight.For example, it is safe to eat 36 grams of protein per day at 100 pounds, while 72 grams of protein per day if you weigh up to 200 pounds, so that you don’t increase your risk of cancer or general death. USDA Data shows that a measuring cup of chicken contains about 43 grams of protein.

Longo Warnings are given to people who still consume large amounts of animal protein that the risks they take are comparable to smoking.

Longo "People who eat high protein have a higher chance of dying from cancer than those who smoke today.”
