Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, about 10 million people die from cancer each year. That is a big number. So even small changes in risk matter
Protein is important. Your body needs it to build muscles, repair tissues, make hormones, and support your immune system. The average adult needs about 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight each day. If you weigh 70 kilos, that is about 56 grams per day. Some people need more. Athletes may need 1.2 to 2 grams per kilogram. Older adults may need slightly more too.
Animal protein comes from meat, chicken, fish, eggs, and dairy. Plant protein comes from beans, lentils, chickpeas, tofu, nuts, seeds, and whole grains.

The World Cancer Research Fund reviewed global research and concluded that diets high in fiber reduce the risk of colorectal cancer. They estimate that every 10 grams increase in fiber per day reduces colorectal cancer risk by about 10 percent. Beans and lentils are high in both protein and fiber. So they may give double benefits.
Plant foods also contain antioxidants and phytochemicals. These are natural compounds that help protect cells from damage. For example, soy contains isoflavones. Research has shown that moderate soy intake does not increase breast cancer risk. In fact, in some Asian populations, higher soy intake is linked with lower breast cancer risk. One large research review found that women who consumed higher soy had about a 10 to 20 percent lower risk of breast cancer. But, this may depend on lifelong intake starting at a young age.
What about dairy and cancer. The data is mixed. Some research suggests that high dairy intake may increase prostate cancer risk. For example, some research has shown that men who consume high amounts of dairy have about a 20 to 30 percent higher risk of prostate cancer compared to low consumers. But, other research shows that dairy may reduce colorectal cancer risk, possibly due to calcium. So it is not black and white.
Fish is another animal protein. Fatty fish like salmon and sardines contain omega 3 fats. Omega 3 fats reduce inflammation. Some research suggests that higher fish intake may lower the risk of colorectal cancer and possibly breast cancer. But, results are not always consistent.
Eggs are also debated. Some research has suggested a possible link between high egg intake and certain cancers, like prostate cancer. But, the evidence is weaker compared to processed meat.
Now let us step back. Does animal protein directly cause cancer. Not exactly in a simple way. It depends on the type, the amount, how it is cooked, and the overall diet.
If someone eats a diet high in processed meat, low in fiber, low in fruits and vegetables, high in sugar, and does not exercise, their cancer risk is higher. But, if someone eats small amounts of lean meat, lots of vegetables, whole grains, beans, fruits, and stays active, the risk is lower.
