BBC World Service - Business Matters, Processed Meats 'Cause Cancer'

Eating processed meats causes cancer says the World Health Organisation

Eating processed meats causes cancer says the World Health Organisation. We hear from top chef Angela Harnett.  And, Ben Bernanke has reactions to the financial crisis.

Eating processed meats causes cancer - and red meat is also a risk  - says the World Health Organisation. We ask kitchen super star Angela Harnett what we should eat instead. Plus, we hear from Shaylein Mcneil of the National Cattlemen's Beef Association - which represents beef producers in the United States.

The former head of the US Federal Reserve Ben Bernanke has written a book about his eight years in charge. He does not pull any punches in criticising how some governments responded to the financial crisis.

And, as Spectre gets its global premiere in London, we speak to a former MI6 undercover agent and ask what it takes to be a real life James Bond. We also hear about a company which offers James Bond-like experiences for cash rich and adventure hungry clients.

Plus, throughout the show we hear from Toronto-based Ralph Silva of the Silva Research Network and in London, Caspar Berry, former professional poker player turned motivational speaker.
