Direct quote from the presidents (USA, but same here in NZ) report on cancer and environmental toxins. "Industry has exploited regulatory weaknesses, such as government’s reactionary (rather than precautionary) approach to regulation. Likewise, industry has exploited government’s use of an outdated methodology for assessing “attributable fractions” of the cancer burden due to specific environmental exposures. This methodology has been used effectively by industry to justify introducing untested chemicals into the environment." Very succinct. Particularly when "Less than 2% of chemicals on the market have actually been tested for carcinogenicity (NIOSH, 2007)." Best avoided Meat the way nature intended deainfo.nci.nih.gov/advisory/pcp/annualReports/pcp08-09rpt/PCP_Report_08-09_508.pdf
