Experts from the National Cancer Research Center in Japan found that men who are lovers of red meat: pork and beef, have a 1.4-fold increase in the propensity for diabetes.. For 5 years of the study, experts studied the data of 64,000 people, whose age ranged from 45 to 75 years..

Scientists have concluded that those men who eat an average of 108 grams of meat every day are 1.36 times more likely to develop diabetes in them than those males who eat no more than 23.

In addition, it was found that men who prefer beef and pork to other types of meat are 1.42 times more likely to suffer from diabetes..

According to Japanese scientists in their report, this phenomenon is due to the fact that in the blood of red meat lovers, the level of iron rises, which leads to the production of insulin in smaller amounts.. At the same time, it was also found that in women, the increase in the likelihood of diabetes with the amount of meat consumed is not interrelated..
