Studies (recent and past) have linked red meat consumption to certain cancers. Are Argentina's cancer rates actually any higher than anywhere else or is it basically negligible?

Looks like it's actually lower than most other Western countries: http://www.wcrf.org/int/cancer-facts-figures/data-cancer-frequency-country http://www.wcrf.org/int/cancer-facts-figures/data-cancer-fre... But I guess red meat is just one of several (many?) things that can affect cancer. For example, it seems that there is an inverse correlation between selenium in the soil and cancer: http://jn.nutrition.org/content/128/11/1845.full.pdf http://jn.nutrition.org/content/128/11/1845.full.pdf
