AB - According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), there is sufficient evidence for the carcinogenicity of processed meat consumption in humans, specifically regarding colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. Evidence for the carcinogenicity of red meat consumption is more limited but points in the same direction.A macro-simulation approach was used to calculate age- and sex-specific potential impact fractions in a 30-year period (2020-2050).We estimated numbers and proportions of future CRC cases preventable under different scenarios of reducing the intake of processed and red meat in the German population.Eliminating processed meat intake could reduce the burden of CRC by approximately 205,000 cases in Germany (9.6
