Yes, bacon is bad for you. How to fit the popular processed meat into your eating plan.

0

It’s undeniable that bacon has an allure about it — it’s crispy, salty, savory and even sweet all at once. Bacon is a powerhouse of umami, the savory and fifth type of taste alongside sweet, sour, salty and bitter. Its combination of fat, salt and smoke enhance the natural umami, creating a mouthwatering experience that’s hard to resist, possibly even addictive. It’s also not the healthiest food to eat.

Despite increasing research and public concern about processed meats like bacon, U.S. adults have maintained their average intake of nearly 190 grams (about 6.7 oz.) of processed meats per week for over 18 years. In fact, the average intake of bacon actually went up over this time period. As one of the top five processed meats consumed by U.S. adults, bacon accounts for almost 5% of total processed meat intake. But how risky is it to keep up this habit? Here’s what the research says.

There’s no sugarcoating it: Processed meat was officially classified as Group 1 “carcinogenic to humans” by the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer in 2015 due to strong evidence that linked it to an increased risk of colorectal cancer, the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in men and fourth in women in the U.S. Specifically, the agency highlighted that each 50 gram portion of processed meat — equivalent to just over four slices of bacon — eaten daily increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 18%.

A 2019 study found that eating 76 grams (about 2.7 oz.) of red and processed meats per day was associated with a 20% higher risk of developing colorectal cancer, compared to those who consumed just 21 grams (or less than an ounce) per day.

Processed meat, with its high content of saturated fat, sodium and nitrates, is also linked to a higher risk for cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and cognitive decline. The Prospective Urban Rural Epidemiology (PURE) Study, which analyzed more than 134,000 participants from 21 countries, found that people who ate more than 150 grams (about 5.3 oz.) of processed red meat per week had a higher risk of death and cardiovascular events, including heart attacks, stroke and heart failure, compared to those who never ate them. Researchers suspect the preservatives and additives in processed meats play a major role in these risks.

When it comes to brain health, researchers presented new findings at this summer’s Alzheimer’s Association International Conference that suggest eating two servings of processed red meat a week — or the equivalent of less than one slice of bacon daily — raises the risk of dementia by 14% compared to individuals who limited processed red meat to less than three times a month. They also noticed that adding just one more serving of processed red meat daily was associated with faster cognitive aging, including in verbal memory, which affects the ability to recall and understand words and sentences.

The same studies presented at the Alzheimer’s conference also suggest that not only limiting processed red meat but also substituting it with a portion of nuts, beans or tofu could potentially reduce the risk of dementia by 20%.

Cutting back on your average intake of processed meats can help with preventing many chronic illnesses. For instance, another recent study found that reducing processed meat intake by 30% or about 8.7 grams per day — meaning eating at least five fewer slices of bacon per week — over 10 years could potentially lead to more than 350,000 fewer cases of type 2 diabetes, 92,500 fewer cardiovascular disease occurrences, 53,300 fewer case of colorectal cancer and nearly 17,000 fewer all-cause deaths.

While regularly eating large amounts of bacon may pose health risks, there are some health benefits too. Bacon is a good source of protein with each cooked slice providing close to 4 grams. It’s also rich in unsaturated fat — not just saturated fat — which can help keep you fuller for longer and aid in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, E, D and K. And while not very high in these micronutrients, bacon still contains many B-vitamins, iron, magnesium and choline.

The exact amount of how much processed meat is safe to consume is still unknown. However, the American Heart Association recommends a maximum consumption of 100 grams of processed meat per week, which comes out to about 13 grams per day — just over one uncooked slice of bacon.

Given what some of the research says, even staying within these guidelines has been linked to potential health risks. That said, for a healthy individual, it’s generally advised to limit processed meats to a serving — or three slices of bacon — about once per week or less. If you have certain health conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure or diabetes, you may want to limit your intake even more, given bacon’s saturated fat and sodium content.

Keep in mind that bacon by itself isn’t likely to cause significant health issues and that your overall diet and lifestyle choices can greatly influence your well-being. Along with limiting your intake, you can also look for lower sodium options, or choose unprocessed cuts of poultry and red meat. (There isn’t much of a health benefit to choosing uncured versus cured bacon.)

If you love bacon, just remember to enjoy it in moderation and with a diet rich in vegetables, fruit, whole grains, healthy fats and lean proteins, while limiting overall saturated fat, sodium and sugar.

Alaska Airlines flight attendants reject new contract, union says there’s ‘more work to do’

Alaska Airlines flight attendants rejected a new labor deal that would have come with immediate raises averaging more than 24%, their union said Wednesday, setting both sides up for more talks as a merger with Hawaiian Airlines looms.

The union and the company had reached a tentative “record” agreement in June, which included boarding pay, as well as back pay, on top of average pay increases of about 32% over the three-year deal, according to the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA.

“There is more work to do,” the union said, adding that it will survey members to “determine key issues and return to the table to address them.”

The airline said in a statement: “We remain committed to reaching an agreement that reflects the critical role of our flight attendants and is good for Alaska’s long-term success.”

Airline workers across the industry have pushed their employers for pay increases and better working conditions after Covid-19 put a pause on most labor negotiations. Salaries and fuel are airlines’ biggest costs and talks at some carriers had turned contentious before new contracts were approved.

Pilots at the major carriers have sealed deals over the past two years, while other airline workers have continued to seek better pay.

American Airlines reached a deal with its flight attendants union last month, and members are voting on whether to ratify it. United Airlines is still negotiating a new contract with its flight attendants’ union.

Comprehensive Environment Perception

K10+ Pro features a LiDAR sensor and a PSD sensor, providing a more precise perception of your home environment.

Enhanced Noise Reduction with SilenTech™

K10+ Pro is equipped with SilenTech™ technology, reducing noise to just 45dB during silent cleaning mode—quieter than a library. Its comprehensive environment perception system allows it to navigate furniture flexibly, minimizing collisions and creating a naturally even quieter cleaning environment.

Comprehensive Cleaning with Low Maintenance

Equipped with the latest SLAM intelligent navigation, SwitchBot Mini Robot Vacuum K10+ Pro dynamically plans cleaning paths with up to 3000Pa suction power and cleans for up to 150 minutes on a single charge. K10+ Pro also features a unique four-stage cleaning method to consolidate dust and hair together first, raise the dust and hair up from the floors and carpets, vacuum all the dust and hair floating in the air, and then collect everything into its dust box.

Despite its compact size, K10+ Pro comes with a mini base station that features a large 4L dust bag, allowing users to dispose of trash only once every 90 days. This convenience, combined with its powerful suction and long-lasting battery, makes K10+ Pro a top choice for maintaining a clean home effortlessly.

Australian meteorologist Nate Byrne had a panic attack on live TV. What we can all learn from his ‘masterful’ reaction.

0

On Monday, Australian meteorologist Nate Byrne was giving the morning forecast when he informed the audience he needed to “stop for a second” because he was having a panic attack, as shown in a clip posted to ABC News Australia’s Instagram. Before calmly asking his colleague Lisa Millar to take over, Byrne addressed the audience. “Some of you may know that I occasionally get affected by some panic attacks, and actually, that’s happening right now.”

Millar quickly jumped in and directed viewers to the story Byrne wrote about his first panic attack, which happened while he was on air. “It’s fantastic that he has been so open and transparent about it,” Millar said. Later in the broadcast, Byrne rejoined Millar in the studio, laughing with his colleagues and sharing that he was grateful for their support.

His panic attack sparked a conversation online about the importance of transparency and support around common mental health issues. Commenters praised the news team for how they handled the situation, the “effortless transition” and talking openly about panic attacks. “This is the BEST thing I’ve seen in ages,” one remarked, while another wrote: “This is gold standard on how to handle mental health advocacy WHILST supporting a colleague having a panic attack.”

Whether you’ve never seen a panic attack before or have experienced them yourself, experts say there are some lessons you can take away from Byrne’s experience.

A panic attack is an extremely intense but brief and non-life-threatening period of fear and discomfort. “Panic is really the essence of the fear response,” psychologist Kevin Chapman tells Yahoo Life. “The difference is that a fear response is a ‘true’ alarm; you’re actually in danger and therefore your body is responding to prepare you to deal with threat.”

On the other hand, a panic attack “is what we call a ‘false’ alarm,” says Chapman. “You’re literally having the fear response when there is, in fact, no threat, but your body has an all-or-nothing system, so therefore it’s going to respond as if you’re in a fire.”

Chapman thought the way Byrne and his colleagues handled the meteorologist’s panic attack was “masterful,” adding: “People have this ominous perception of panic attacks, especially if they’ve never had one,” he explains. “The way he conveyed himself and the way his colleagues handled it … they decreased the stigma, and they demystified what happens during panic.”

Echoing Chapman’s sentiments, psychologist Sanam Hafeez says that Byrne and his colleagues serve as a great model for others. “The fact that [Byrne] shared it with them and his audience in advance made the situation easier for him to handle in the moment,” she tells Yahoo Life.

The symptoms of a panic attack include a racing or irregular heartbeat, increased blood pressure, dizziness, difficulty breathing and an upset stomach. You may suddenly feel sweaty and hot or cold. “Two symptoms that are really scary are depersonalization — an out-of-body experience — or derealization, which is the feeling that the things around are not real,” explains Chapman. It can feel like you could be having a heart attack, even though you’re not, and you may have some or all of these symptoms, he adds.

During a panic attack, cortisol and adrenaline flood the body, but only briefly. A panic attack typically peaks within 10 minutes, although many people feel they last “hours,” according to Chapman. That’s because residual stress hormones hang around for a while, but this tail end of discomfort likely won’t be nearly as intense as the panic attack itself.

Chapman says that there’s no correlation between panic attacks and heart attacks. But living with chronic stress can raise your risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke and other serious health issues, according to Chapman and Mayo Clinic.

“Panic is an equal opportunity employer,” says Chapman. That’s because we all have the same limbic system regulating our emotions and reactions to the world around us, and it has the potential to go haywire in anyone. Panic attacks are also common. As many as 11% of people in the U.S. have a panic attack in a given year, according to Cleveland Clinic.

Chapman notes that while women are somewhat more likely to report panic attacks, such incidents may be just as common among men — they’re just not talking about it as much. That’s why Chapman was particularly happy to see Byrne opening up about his panic.

While a panic attack can strike anyone, anxiety is a necessary ingredient. As Chapman puts it, “anxiety always primes the pump for panic attacks. You cannot panic without anxiety being present.” Panic comes on when anxiety turns to overwhelming fear.

It’s a “myth” that panic attacks come out of the blue, Chapman says. In reality, these attacks are usually prompted by one of two triggers, he says.

Thoughts that something might be scary — for instance, being on camera isn’t dangerous but may be nerve-racking — can be a subtle trigger of panic. Or you might have a physical sensation, such as your heart skipping a beat or sudden stomach pain, that reminds you of panic and that becomes a kind of self-fulfilling prophecy. Chapman explains that thinking about an uncomfortable sensation can intensify it, “which leads to more negative thoughts, and that spirals into full-blown panic.”

The subtlety of these triggers makes it feel like they occur “without warning,” says Hafeez. “This unpredictability can make panic attacks particularly unsettling, as individuals might find themselves overwhelmed by fear and physical symptoms even when there seems to be no immediate cause,” she explains.

Panic attacks may feel impossible when you’re in the middle of one, but Chapman always recommends two simple steps:

  1. Breathe. Inhale through your nose for four to six seconds, and exhale through your mouth for another four to six seconds. Repeat this 10 times. “Breathing correctly is a portable tool to help you remain in uncomfortable situations,” like a crowded place that may be triggering your panic, says Chapman.

  2. Focus on something outside yourself. Chapman notes that focusing on your own discomfort and scary thoughts is a hallmark of panic attacks. But you can start to shift your attention to something external to “ground yourself in the present moment,” he says. Try some grounding techniques, like focusing on something you notice with each of your five senses.

If you find yourself around someone who’s having a panic attack, you can take a cue from the ABC News Australia team and help them out. “The best thing others can do is to stay with the person and keep calm, reminding the individual that it will pass soon,” advises psychologist Bunmi Olatunji. “Remember, panic attacks peak at about 10 minutes.”
