Not according to latest studies, there is no safe level of processed meat consumption.

Cold cuts are often processed, rather than delivered raw.

Secondary News Article: https://www.sciencealert.com/massive-review-finds-no-safe-level-of-processed-meat-consumption

Original Study: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-025-03775-8

consuming processed meat (at 0.6–57 g d−1) was associated with at least an 11% average increase in type 2 diabetes risk and a 7% (at 0.78–55 g d−1) increase in colorectal cancer risk.

So eating a gram of processed meat per day would significantly increase chances of type 2 diabetes, and colorectal cancer.

1 gram ≃ 0.03 ounces (British imperial units)

Feels like it would be easier to list what doesn't increase your risk of some horrible illness these days.

[–] Isoprenoid@programming.dev 3 points 1 day ago (7 children)

Fruit, vegetables, whole grains, exercise, some sunlight, some socialisation, an easy creative hobby.

You're right, it is easier to list those things.

Isn't fruit unhealthy except in low quantity?

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 2 points 22 hours ago

Define low quantity. Fruit contains sugars, which can be bad if you have too much, but I find it's hard to eat enough fruit to push my sugar intake above my daily limit. And fruit is generally a good source of important micronutrients like fiber, potassium, B vitamins, etc.
