The consumption of cold red meat has been associated with breast cancer. However, access to this data is limited. On the other hand, it has been suggested that antioxidants may have a protective effect, but in this case, the evidence is also limited.
It is from this situation that interest arises on the part of the French SU.VI.MAX study, which, for the first time, analyzes the probable effects of antioxidant supplementation in relation to deli meats and breast cancer.

The results of the aforementioned study indicate that breast cancer increases with the consumption of cold cuts, excluding cooked ham. In addition, it indicates that this association becomes insignificant among people who take antioxidant supplements, which is a novel fact.
A diet rich in antioxidants, especially through the intake of fruits, grains and vegetables, would be the best recommendation for women who are lovers of deli meats. @isbe_inspira in @mundiario
