Pork

Following the same line as above, pork is an excellent example of meat you want to avoid, if not to eliminate, from the diet. Pork has tremendous amounts of saturated organic fat, which our body absorbs almost wholly. This applies not only to pork itself but derived or processed foods made from pork, like ham, bacon, salami, and sausages. Pork is the first food taken away from the diet of a hepatitis patient. It has been associated with the onset of cirrhosis; it even has been tagged as a trigger for cirrhosis and considered more dangerous than alcohol itself. Some researchers aim to correlate the mortality rates caused by hepatic conditions and the cultural consumption of pork and alcohol in different countries.
