I promise you: if red meat healed your health issues, I would
report the science as it was. Yet, we know that increased red meat
is associated with heart disease, cancer, diabetes and death. These
past few weeks provided 3 more reasons to avoid red meat. These
include the research on the meat rich Paleo diet and increased
levels in the blood of TMAO. It also included more data about the
concerning spread of the Lone Star tick and meat allergies.
Finally, humans are not mice and we do not make neu5Gc. It turns
out we have antibodies to neu5Gc from eating red meat from other
species which is rich in neu5GC and creates inflammation and
atherosclerosis. Overall, eat whole plant foods and your health
will be protected.
