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
