Neu5Gc, a non-human sugar found in red meat, promotes inflammation and cancer progression in rodents, according to a study conducted at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine. Researchers found that feeding Neu5Gc to mice engineered to be deficient in the sugar significantly promoted spontaneous cancers. The study did not involve exposure to carcinogens or artificially inducing cancers, thus implying Neu5Gc as a key link between red meat consumption ...Tuesday, 30 December 2014
