Answer to Question 1

An American Institute of Cancer Research and the World Cancer Research Fund expert committee concluded that excessive consumption of salt and salt-preserved foods is a probable cause of stomach cancers.

Answer to Question 2

18 ounces each week. (This would be roughly one 3-ounce portion of red meat six days a week.) Little if any of this meat should be processed.
