Well, as long as any other fresh meat you cook. Not as long as the processed lunch meat that's filled with nitrates and preservatives, but it's a lot better for you.

Even nitrates are OK they aren't cooked over 130 centigrade.

So air dried and boiled ham is fine.

And if you add vitamin C (which counts as a preservative too) that also stops nitrates becoming toxic when cooked.
