You're probably still eating way too much animal products and you'll most likely get bowel cancer and gout if you keep eating like that.
Way to confirm the stereotype lmao

Enjoy cancer
Roughly 4% of people will be diagnosed with CRC in their lifetime. The relative risk of eating 50g/day of processed meat is about 1.2.
If the 4% was the risk of someone who doesnt eat processed meat (its not the true value, a quick scan of your source didnt provide that number but it will do), that means that roughly 4.8% of people who eat 50g of processed meat a day would get CRC.
So with that figure in mind you can clearly conclude that you will get cancer if you meat. /s
