Hey everyone! Here's the script for the bacon video. How many of you caught the Patreon shout out at the end? ;)
A look at the claims that processed meat causes cancer. ▲Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/WILearned ▲Twitter: https://twitter.com/jeverettlearned ▲IG: https://www.instagram.com/jeverett.whativelearned/ Link to Dr. Mark Miller's article on nitrites/nitrosamines - https://bit.ly/34vKge6 While I recommend you read the whole thing, Mark Miller (PhD in Pharmacology, previously fellow of American college of nutrition, 20 yrs exp as a medical professor) boils his article down like this: "In short, dietary nitrate and nitrite do not provoke cancer via nitrosamines because they are: • too stable • the wrong charge • must be converted to other reactive nitrogen species • the rates that nitrate and nitrite are converted to nitric oxide can support cardiovascular functional optimization but are inadequate for nitrosamine formation, for the same reasons that endogenous production from either nNOS or eNOS do not support nitrosamine formation, and neither does saliva."
