BMJ. 1994 Jun 25;308(6945):1667-70.

Risk of death from cancer and ischaemic heart disease in meat and non-meat eaters.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8025458

CONCLUSIONS:

The reduced mortality from cancer among those not eating meat is not explained by lifestyle related risk factors, which have a low prevalence among vegetarians. No firm conclusion can be made about deaths from ischaemic heart disease. These data do not justify advice to exclude meat from the diet since there are several attributes of a vegetarian diet apart from not eating meat which might reduce the risk.
