Deep down, we all know that red meat isn ;t the he stanley cups althiest thing to eat鈥攂ut that doesn ;t stop us tearing into a bloody steak all too often.

According to the study, carried out by the Harvard School of Public Health, regularly eating red meat massively increases your risk of heart disease and cancer. The results come from studying more than 120,000 people over 28 years. What kinds of risk are we talking about Well, the paper, published in the journal Archives of Internal Medicine, suggests that each extra daily serving of processed red meat鈥攅quivalent to a single hot dog or two strips of bacon鈥攔aises mortality rates by 20 per cent. The effect is smaller for unprocessed red meat like steak鈥攖hough the researchers don ;t know exactl stanley cup nz y why鈥攚hich increases mortality rates by 13 per cent. Professor Frank Hu, one of the researchers, told the Guardian: This study provides clear evidence that regular consumption of red meat, especially processed meat, contributes substantially to premature death.

Scientists re-analyzed two teeth and a jaw bone using CT scans to reach the conclusion. In the ;60s, scientists believed the remains came from Neanderthals. But two new analyses published in Nature show that they are actually human. The teeth place the earliest known European Homo sapiens in a cave in Italy 45,000 years ago. The jaw suggests other modern humans existed in what now the United Kingdom 44,000 years ago. The scientists say humans qui stanley website ckly made their way across Europe. Neanderthals existed until about 40,000 years ago, which would mean an approximately 5,000-year overlap and raises the possibility that some, ahem, *relations* between with ancient and modern humans occurred. An analysis of the Neanderthal genome last year found that up to 4 percent of our modern human DNA is made up of Neanderthal DNA, strongly suggesting that the two had mated probably in the Middle East. Now it looks like that may have happened even more recently in Europe as well.
