n this statistical study, I will be focusing on the topic of the 'Red Meat and Colon Cancer' link. The hypothesis researcher Sarah Boseley puts out is eating 90g of red meat per day can increase the chances of developing bowel cancer, which is in accordance with the NHS guidelines. The NHS's specific guideline in Sarah's research encourages us to reduce eating red meat down to '70g or less per day because of the known link with bowel cancer. The null hypothesis would be that there is no link between the consumption of red meat and bowel cancer.
