Red meat

This is one of the articles I am interested in editing. I am interested in this topic because I have wondered for the sake of my own diet, how much red meat is healthy to eat, in proportion to the amount of white meat that I eat. I did my preliminary search but searching google for topics in nutrition, then narrowing it to the subject of red meat.

Vitamin D deficiency

This is another article which I am interested in editing. I am interested in this topic because I have heard that Vitamin D deficiency is a prominent cause of depression at Cornell. I would like to did some research to assess the validity of this claim, and ultimately contribute to the article to develop its accuracy.

Gluten-free diet

This is another article which I am interested in editing. The reason I am interested in this subject is because the gluten-free diet has been particularly popular in recent years, and I would like to assess the benefits and risks of the diet.

1.) Interestingly, results from two different studies observing Italian men did not show any significant association between red meat intake and prostate cancer. Additionally, the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial, which examined American men also did not find any association between red meat intake and occurrence of prostate cancer. However, what has been concluded from an aggregation of 14 case-controlled and 8 cohort studies is that intake of well-done meat is associated with an increased incidence of prostate cancer, across countries.

2.) Despite the association of red meat intake and prostate cancer, lifestyle factors including exercise can mitigate the progression, and fatality of prostate cancer. There has been found a direct association between BMI and incidence of prostate cancer. Despite this association, the biologic mechanisms behind the relationship between obesity and prostate cancer incidence remain unclear

3.) One possible explanation for why the increased risk of colon cancer that is associated with high intake of red and processed meat could be related to HCA's which are generated during cooking at high temperatures or over an open flame, which had effects on hormone metabolism. It has been demonstrated that his and other compounds DNA damage in prostate tissue culture. Additionally, it has been shown that heme iron, which is found in grilled meat, is significantly associated with high risk of prostate cancer. This may suggest that the frequency with which red meat is grilled or barbecued may contribute to its association with prostate cancer.
