Pork is the meat of the domestic pig (Sus domesticus).
It’s the most commonly consumed red meat worldwide, especially in eastern Asia, but its consumption is forbidden in certain religions, such as Islam and Judaism.
For this reason, pork is illegal in many Islamic countries.
It is often eaten unprocessed, but cured (preserved) pork products are also very common. These include smoked pork, ham, bacon, and sausages.
Being high in protein and rich in many vitamins and minerals, lean pork can be an excellent addition to a healthy diet.

Cancer is a serious disease, characterized by uncontrolled growth of cells in the body.
It’s difficult to prove that pork causes cancer in humans as observational studies cannot provide evidence for a direct cause-and-effect relationship.
Still, the idea that a high intake of meat causes cancer is plausible. This especially applies to meat cooked under high heat.
In itself, pork is likely not a risk factor for cancer. However, high consumption of overcooked pork is a cause for concern.
