Processed Meats
Bacon, hot dogs, ham, and sausages are a part of many of our daily diets. Still, cardiologists tend to steer clear of them. These products are completely drenched in saturated fats.
And we’ve already learned that sausage and other processed meats have been linked to different types of cancer and heart failure. But what exactly is in processed meat? The term refers to meat that’s been cured, salted, fermented, or smoked to prolong its shelf life.
So even though these foods are fast and convenient, the chemicals and sodium used in them are hazardous to our hearts, especially when we eat them in large quantities.

What about Fiber One bars? Are they ok to have when you are in the go?
Interestingly enough I agree with most of your list, however red meat and processed meats are not the bogeyman they are portrayed as, I am not an expert, but since February of this year I have lost 60 pounds eating red meat processed meats, mostly bacon, pork sausage, lunchmeat, and lots of butter and eggs. My blood pressure has returned to normal, I was prediabetic, I no longer am.
that sounds like a keto diet which can help you l ose weight however this diet will not sustain you in the long run. Read the literature and studies. Saturated fat from those food items is very harmful and has been strongly linked to cancer and cardio problems.

I would like to suggest a book you can get on Amazon called Ultra Processed People. It is somewhat technical but very informative. I had already cut out processed meats before I read this book, but there are so many other processed foods that are unhealthy. I’m a 67 year old woman who would like to live to see her great grandchildren. I do buy uncured meat occasionally but it’s not part of my normal diet.
