Eating chicken puts consumers at a higher risk of a rare form of blood cancer, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, as well as prostate cancer in men, according to researchers from Oxford University.
The research involved tracking 475,000 middle-aged Britons over a period of eight years between 2006 and 2014.
Their diets were analysed alongside the diseases and illnesses they suffered with.
Around 23,000 of them developed cancer.
'Poultry intake was positively associated with risk for malignant melanoma, prostate cancer and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma', according to the paper published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health.

Windmills cause cancer
That's not good news.
Just like black plastic AR guns, we need to ban Assault chickens! They can kill you!
Dam we are all screwed! It's either chicken or beef in the supermarket. If you want a daily dose of mercury then it fish. Even vegetables are sprayed with toxic chemicals that won't wash off, so there is nothing out there that is safe to eat period.
With all of the acid type chemicals our local poultry company uses to combat salmonella, this is probably a true article. If it will burn your skin off it probably isn't good to ingest it.
Shouldn't listen to lunatics.
Huh, I thought it was red meat? I thought it was coffee? That's why I don't go to California, everything there gives you cancer :-)
So genetically modified food does cause cancer, go figure... Just like we said...

I guess you're an expert on acids? I suppose you'd rather have salmonella poisoning?
Thanks for trying to spread rumors about something which you know nothing about.
Good let Christians gobble up that Chick Fil A and the other ones that Popeye's.
This research was paid for with demonrat doners trying to make Christian Chix-filet lose their thriving business.LOL
Do more testing with a different group of people,
they'll find different results.
Old age causes cancer. We should eliminate old aged people.
Chickens consume feed daily that has been processed using the neurotoxin Hexane.
I’m screwed!
I raise chickens for Perdue
I eat Perdue chicken
I spray the weeds around my chicken houses with Roundup
Anyone know a good cheap lawyer?
Is neurotoxin Hexane bad for you?
If it is how come they still sell it at Walmart
There is no such thing
Who funded the study? PETA?
Well I guess I'm a dead man. Been eating chicken all my life. Wonder how I made it to 70 eating all that chicken.
Research from oxford university in London says that eating chicken causes cancer, but doctors say that it doesn’t mean you should worry too much. Because all of us know eating a little amount of craven is good for health. It includes some protein sources which make your body healthy.
