This person clearly has strong believe in &quot;meat is healthy&quot; and tries to find proof of that, and provides multiple links to healthy meat blog posts. I mean, with such attitude one can confirm anything.<p>But for some reason overwhelming majority of scientists claim that consuming meat in quantities we do in North America is not good for health and environment on multiple dimensions: cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, infections, kidney disease, liver disease, cattle waste, deforestation and many others.<p>HH &amp; authors attitude towards this article really reminds me some cringe movements like anti-vaxers or some other shit, where people choose what they want first and then find confirmation for it.

Recent Harvard research found that we need to replace beef and dairy to avoid climate catastrophe.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.tandfonline.com&#x2F;doi&#x2F;full&#x2F;10.1080&#x2F;14693062.2018.1528965?af=R&amp;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.tandfonline.com&#x2F;doi&#x2F;full&#x2F;10.1080&#x2F;14693062.2018.1...</a><p>Harvard&#x27;s finding is consistent with the drawdown.org research that found plant-rich diets are a top solution to climate change. (4th of 80).<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.drawdown.org&#x2F;solutions-summary-by-rank" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.drawdown.org&#x2F;solutions-summary-by-rank</a>

Interesting article, I was under the impression that the link between heart disease meat consumption was more strongly established. It&#x27;s important to note that this article is from 2013, so I wonder how much has changed since.<p>Joe Rogan hosted a nice debate between two scientists in the field, one of whom was a strict vegan: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=ULtqCBimr6U" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=ULtqCBimr6U</a>.

So are there any foods that are uncontroversially known to predispose people to heart attacks? It seems that just about everything is contentious in nutrition science these days.

This is what’s so wonderful about nutrition.<p>There’s something for everyone! Just decide what you want to eat, search until you find evidence in favor of that diet, and then stop looking.

This article is written in a very biased unscientific way and I wonder why it got so many upvotes. I get that people like meat here but.

Homo sapiens has been eating red meat for 200,000 years. It is very unlikely it is net harmful to us.
