Depends on the meat tbh. Red meat ain't doing your body any favors. It especially doesn't do your colon any good. And even the superior pescatarian diet has its downsides given the mercury content in most fish.
This is false. Red meat is perfectly fine. Theres zero hard evidence that it is bad for you, countless scientists have even retracted their previous diagnoses regarding this I might add. Quit blaming the meat for the negatives that are related to what people are cooking it in. Stop cooking your meat in those vegetable oils.
Yeah I can't do any NYT articles. Any other sources or links to the references they use? All the academic journals I've seen thus far states that it does increase risks of colon cancer and having had colon cancer myself I find it hard to believe it being perfectly healthy when my doctor told me to avoid that and other foods with high saturated fat content.
Did any of those journals you read factor in the other foods that Americans also typically eat in excess that are loaded with carbs and sugars and or have been cooked in vegetable oils? Ask yourself this question.
Also throwing this in for good measure, if the poorly conducted studies that are negative towards red meat are to be believed, the people of Hong Kong should be dropping dead like flies. Hong Kong is up there in the world for eating way more meat than just about any other place, and yet, their lifespans exceed that of Americans.
Yes they did. I've read reports published in both the US and UK if that makes a difference to you. Again, there's no going around the fact that red meats are high in saturated fat. Also, iirc there was a surprising increase in young adults with colorectal cancer in China which of course was attributed to the average diet. Additionally a quick Google search shows life expectancy in China is no greater than the US. ---
