Sorry for late reply. You'll find very low cancer rates in cultures that eat predominately meat -- of course they also tend to hunt and are therefore more active, get more sun, live less stressful lives, etc. Combining a high animal diet with processed food seems to be much worse than just a high animal diet. My vegetarian diet was mostly vegetables and minimal processed food, besides faux meat when trying to socialize. I tried going vegan for a year and had so much brain fog that I can barely remember anything that happened. I was eating a lot of home-made cheese, salads, raw foods, and supplementing with B-12 and lots of pea protein. Now I eat high protein, mostly animal, work out, and intermittently fast. I find it works for me. I will keep an eye out on cancer but my vitals are very good and I don't yet see much research on my particular niche diet.
