Reducing Red Meat May Not Be Worth It

Researchers say link to cancer, heart disease is weak

In a paper published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, an international group of experts says evidence that red meat causes heart disease and cancer is weak at best and most people shouldn't feel the need to cut down. Researcher Bradley Johnston says the panel of 14 researchers analyzed past studies and found "only low-certainty evidence of a very small reduction in cancer or other adverse health consequences." "For most people who enjoy eating meat, the uncertain health benefits of cutting down are unlikely to be worth it," he says.

You don’t say?! A body biologically designed to eat both meat and plants ACTUALLY benefits when it eats meat? Get out of here!

"Problem" is....for every link or expert saying its not a problem, there is a link or expert saying it is a problem.  


Which link is a fella to believe?

 

(And this goes for pretty much any story where something is said to be bad for you or good for you.)

First of all, this is about red meat, right?

Second, red meat has lots of saturated fat, which is bad for you. Now I’m sure it’s still better than most of the highly processed junk we generally eat in this country, so there’s that. But no question lean meats and vegetables are better for you

The sickest I've ever been was from eating bad chicken - food poisoning from that makes you want to die.... I've never gotten sick from cow.

Beef >>>> chicken    :D

Our biggest problem isn't what foods we eat/don't eat, it's that as society "progresses", less of our lives are spent doing physical things.  You never heard of Indians, who had to go hunting daily to survive, of dieing from heart disease.  Maybe the real solution is exercise and getting off the couch.

Venison is red with low saturated fat.  Wrong again.

Yeah because a lot of people frequently eat venison as opposed to say, steak or hamburger :rolleyes:

This.  

Same with diets to lose weight.  

In the case of red meat there is nothing wrong with it.  But no one should suggest go down 2 fat ribeyes a day for health.

It is common sense and very easy logic when it comes to knowing what you can eat or how to lose weight, yet people love to turn it into rocket science.

Some Amish have a natural mutation in their ApoC3 protein that allows them to eat a red meat high fat diet and not increase the triglycerides in their blood and not develop cardiovascular disease.  Scientists are just working on getting drugs to market in 2019 to target ApoC3.  ApoC3 normally greatly slows the breakdown of triglycerides but the mutated version causes triglycerides to get broken down super fast.

Carbs cause cardiovascular disease, not fats:

Is the pendulum swinging back? In what seems contrary to mainstream dietary advice, a small new study shows that doubling the saturated fat in a person's diet does not drive up the levels of saturated fat in the blood.

Rather, the study found that it was the carbohydrates in people's diets that were linked with increased levels of a type of fatty acid linked to heart disease and type-2 diabetes. The results of the study, which followed 16 middle-aged, obese adults for 21 weeks, were published Nov. 21 in the journal PLOS ONE.

LOS ANGELES – When it comes to understanding the impact of diet on cardiovascular disease, mounting evidence suggests that a high carbohydrate diet is associated with a higher risk of mortality, while consumption of fats, including saturated and unsaturated fats, is associated with a lower risk of mortality.

I really sucks when your belief system falls apart, doesn’t it. It is comical how you try to reassure yourself by throwing the same old talking points as fact.

Hint: Everyone is different, some people can eat massive amounts of fats and live to be 100 while others stroke out at 55. We are all different! Look at your family to see what works for you.  One Size Does Not Fit All! Why is that so hard for you to comprehend.

Oh without a doubt. Never meant to dispute that, Phurfur. We’re talking about general rules of thumb here — of course there are exceptions and so forth :dunno:

We are supposed to eat meat and it’s good for you. As are plants and fruits. I can’t stand all these studies that show someone who drank 2 cups of orange juice in 1978 got cancer so there may be a link between Orange juice and cancer.

Oops:

 

surprising new study challenged decades of nutrition advice and gave consumers the green light to eat more red and processed meat. But what the study didn’t say is that its lead author has past research ties to the meat and food industry.

The new report, published this week in the Annals of Internal Medicine, stunned scientists and public health officials because it contradicted longstanding nutrition guidelines about limiting consumption of red and processed meats. The analysis, led by Bradley C. Johnston, an epidemiologist at Dalhousie University in Canada, and more than a dozen researchers concluded that warnings linking meat consumption to heart disease and cancer are not backed by strong scientific evidence.

Several prominent nutrition scientists and health organizations criticized the study’s methods and findings. But Dr. Johnston and his colleagues defended the work, saying it relied on the highest standards of scientific evidence, and noted that the large team of investigators reported no conflicts of interest and conducted the review without outside funding.

Dr. Johnston also indicated on a disclosure form that he did not have any conflicts of interest to report during the past three years. But as recently as December 2016 he was the senior author on a similar study that tried to discredit international health guidelines advising people to eat less sugar. That study, which also appeared in the Annals of Internal Medicine, was paid for by the International Life Sciences Institute, or ILSI, an industry trade group largely supported by agribusiness, food and pharmaceutical companies and whose members have included McDonald’s, Coca-Cola, PepsiCo and Cargill, one of the largest beef processors in North America. The industry group, founded by a top Coca-Cola executive four decades ago, has long been accused by the World Health Organization and others of trying to undermine public health recommendations to advance the interests of its corporate members.
