The correlation to any of that stuff and cancer is basically meaningless in the scale of one persons life

It's not at all. Red meat is carcinogenic, processed red meats more so. Processed meats are, too.

If you want to reduce your risk of cancer, your best bets are quitting smoking, stopping drinking, eating less meat, and exercising more.

Drinking, like, diet cola is nothing next to those. We know, without a doubt, tobacco, alcohol, and processed meats cause cancer.

There is nothing wrong with red meat, it certainly isn't carcinogenic.
