Hi, all my family members say that meat is unhealthy even though they all eat meat (some of them everyday). I myself only eat meat 1-2 maybe even 3 times a week and only very rarely red meat/non-lean meat. But...
I can understand processed meat but normal steak and stuff, like why is it bad? It seems strange to me because to me it feels like that is what our bodies should be used to after being hunters for several...

White meat being stuff like chicken, turkey, seafood, poultry. Red meat being beef, pork, lamb, etc. Please be thorough, including info about nutritional content or risks of mortality, etc. If they're equal, then would meat eaters feel no need to...
Does eating meat when your body has never consumed meat make your body feel like it's a foreign food substance or does nothing. Would meat take longer to digest in a vegetarian's alimentary canal or no? what's the exact biology that...
Are humans designed to eat meat and is there solid evidence to back up that meat is a carcinogen? It plant based eating actually healthier than Paleo?
A nutritionist straight up told me no meat. I can't live with no meat. If you don't eat meat what types of things do you make? So far I've been doing salads, nuts, steaming broccoli, peppers, and carrots. I have...
I'm interested to hear your arguments against following a plant-based (plant-forward) diet. I don't mean vegan or vegetarian, but essentially an omnivore diet that's centered on whole plant foods (whole-food plant-based, WFPB) and sometimes adds animal-based and ultraprocessed foods. I'm surprised...
I believe the recommended amount is once a week or 4x/month but I’m just curious the amount people actually eat.
Anytime I try to get an answer to this question I can’t seem to find the answer I’m looking for. Most studies that link meat consumption to negative health outcomes test a typical western diet which includes meat, against a...
I watched the game changers documentary and im curious about the plant based diet. Has anyone tried it? If so did any change happen? Was your physical performance better or worse? Im very curious.
Is the only reason Red Meat is not the best for you is because of the saturated fat found in it? Are there other reasons or if you removed all saturated fat from red meat (somehow if it's even possible)...
I say this because the only reason I see being vegan is somewhat healthy nowadays is because of supplements and fortified foods. But I wonder, would it have been possible in our ancient history?
Obviously there's cultures, religions, diets, and personal ideas, but why is it that meat that is available comes from herbivores? Any differences in nutritional quality?
We all know meat contains a high amount of nutrients and a good way to get in a lot of calories but what else does the meat contain that may be harmful for the body and what meats are better...
Research claiming red meat was bad for us was proven to be cherry picked and it doesn't make sense from an evolutionary standpoint.
"Eating boiled meat—not broiled, but boiled in water—is probably the safest.

And I’m not talking about the carnivore stuff and all that. I’m referring to the whole using clean meat as a centerpiece of the diet but bolstered by other animal products like butter and eggs, as well as fruits like...
I’ve been eating more Plant-Based (and in some cases, vegan) recipes and I’ve noticed a lot (and I mean *a lot*) of improvements in my overall well-being…But I’m curious : Being from the US, where much of our food is...
Keto is high fat, low carb, and a decent amount protein. Vegetables are optional. Most people only do keto for a few years and then revert back to their normal eating habits after they get the health results they wanted,...
Hey, i have a question. Im buying pork,chicken etc. pretty often. I never weight it raw, i mean i cook meat for many days of meals, so i want to weight it cooked every day alone. Problem is, calories (protein...

Pork is often one of the last options people pick when choosing between meats. What do you think is the reason (apart from religious beliefs). It’s often one of the cheapest options and there are many lean cuts available.

Anyone have any links to something showing red meat isn’t bad for cholesterol? Or is it bad?
I’m looking to count calories/macros and I want to know whether the nutrition information on meat labels is for cooked or uncooked meat. Can’t find consistent info online about this. Thanks!
I see its low in cholesterol and awfully high in protein in comparison to regular fish like salmon. So what's the catch? (No pun intended)
Please, I am interested only in the disadvantages of replacing meat with mycelium
Curious on the communities thoughts on this subject. As I understand it, Meat-Based proteins are more bioavailable. Though understandably, Plant-Based proteins are better for the animals. Assuming someone wanted to make the switch to plant based proteins from meat, what benefits...
In meat that has an unknown quantity of added water (because the supermarkets want more profit), how can the protein macro be calculated? In my country in the EU, meat has on average 20g of protein per 100g of uncooked...
I am nervous about the hormones, micro plastics, and heavy metals that meat can have. I have no interest in becoming vegan, however I am curious. Which of these meats are overall the most “clean”?

What is different about humans that makes fatty meats perceived unhealthy when other animals in the animal kingdom thrive on eating meat?

From my logic, lean ham and cold cut chicken breast (eaten on bread) should be closer to meat rather than highly processed sausages. This is why I think they could be consumed with the same frequency as meat and...

Hello, I was wondering what you guys think about the keto diet?
