My cleaning lady and her family have gone on the Hallalulah Acres Diet [a strict vegetarian diet] and have decided that meat is the source of all evil. This is a religiously based diet that is premised entirely on one passage in the Bible to the detriment of many others which contradict her interpretation.

They have been taught at church that meat causes cancer and every ailment known to mankind, including back pain!! I know there are studies that link meat to a higher incidence of cancer, HOWEVER, those studies alway include processed meats that contain nitrates. Does anyone have an article/study that I can use to convince her that meat is not the cancerous killer she believes? Can you point me in the right direction?
