00:00Eating poultry regularly linked to higher mortality risk, study suggests.

00:05Chicken is a cost-effective, nutritious protein supporting neural and cognitive health.

00:11However, a study warns that consuming over 300 grams weekly might raise gastrointestinal cancer risk.

00:18The article highlights the potential lifespan impact of excessive poultry intake, stressing moderation in dietary habits.

00:24The study aimed to address gaps in public knowledge about poultry consumption and its potential lifespan impact.

00:36Current American guidelines suggest 1 to 3 100-gram poultry servings weekly, including chicken, duck, goose, turkey, and game birds.

00:45Published in Nutrients, the study found that consuming over 300 grams weekly increases mortality risk, particularly in men.

00:54Data from over 4,000 participants, including demographics, medical history, and lifestyle, were analyzed.

01:02Participants monitored for 19 years showed a 27% higher mortality risk with over 300 grams of poultry weekly.

01:10Men doubled their gastrointestinal cancer death risk.

01:13Among 1,028 deceased, 59% of meat intake was red, 41% white, with poultry making up 29% of white meat consumption.

01:27The study on poultry's effect on lifespan had limitations, like unspecified preparation methods.

01:33Nutritionists argue poultry is less risky than other meats, focusing on production and preparation, especially oils used.

01:42Shelley Loving advises using avocado, coconut, or extra virgin olive oil over inflammatory refined oils like vegetable or soybean.
