I eat red meat on average about 2 to 3 times a week.
Should I cut down on it?

It does show to increase heart disease or whatever, but a lot of things increase cancer/heart disease risk.

Nutrition science is super wishy washy because it's all paid off by various food industries, so the best choice is everything in moderation.

If you have a family history of heart disease, maybe cut it down/out, otherwise you should be good.

When the who did their research on whether red meat was a carcinogen, out of the 29 studies published 15 said red meat was NOT carcinogenic, and 14 said it was. Keep in mind many of these studies involved rats and mice injected with known carcinogens before the trial began. We aren't rodents and we aren't injected with ass cancer so take that as you will.

What people have yet to explain is HOW red meat gives you ass cancer. Like how do the properties of muscle meat of a mammalian ruminant interact with the human colon to cause cancerous legions/growth.

>> No.16113271

These "studies" showing red meat and cancer are purely associational because they are epidemiological surveys with very small effect sizes. When the link was tested in actual clinical trials the biggest ones being the red heat heart disease link and the red meat colorectal cancer link they failed. So no there is no evidence showing red meat causes cancer or cardiovascular disease

I've been asking this same question for awhile now and havent found much.

From memory...
There is alot of speculation about nitrates becoming nitrites (I might have that reversed) in the colon, but I'm pretty sure that's related to cured meats.
And I honestly dont remember how solid the research regarding nitrites=carcinogen was and the weekend is too beautiful to bother atm.

>RESULTS:
>Fifteen prospective cohort studies (251 261 unique participants, 16 416 cases) met the eligibility criteria, comparing the highest intake (median 137, 35.2 and 78 g/d) with the lowest intake (median 65, 9.7 and 25.8 g/d) of total sugars, fructose and sucrose, respectively. Although there was no association of total sugars (RR 0.91, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.76–1.09) or fructose (RR 1.04, 95% CI 0.84–1.29) with type 2 diabetes, sucrose was associated with a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes (RR 0.89, 95% CI 0.80–0.98). Our confidence in the estimates was limited by evidence of serious inconsistency between studies for total sugars and fructose, and serious imprecision in the pooled estimates for all 3 sugar categories.

>Some nutrition experts say that the WHI Dietary Modification Trial doesn’t really lay to rest the low-fat hypothesis because the women in the study only modestly lowered their fat, from 38% to 29%. Had they reached the trial’s target of 20%, benefits from the low-fat approach may have become more apparent, these nutritionists suggest.
>It is possible that the participants in the low-fat group may have actually overstated how much they reduced their fat intake. This has happened in other studies, as shown by comparisons between self-reported changes and biochemical measures of dietary change. Significant reductions in fat intake are usually reflected in a decrease in HDL (good) cholesterol and an increase in triglycerides. Yet in the WHI trial, there were no differences in blood levels of HDL cholesterol or triglycerides between the low-fat and usual diet groups. This casts doubt on the degree of fat reduction achieved in this study.
>Two other limitations of the trial are the study population and duration. The trial included women who were aged 50 to 79 years at the beginning of the trial. By this time in life, it may be too late for changes in diet to reduce risks of cancer and other chronic conditions. In addition, it takes years for the effects of dietary change to be seen, and so it is possible that eight years wasn’t enough time to see the true impact of a low-fat diet.

Glucose tolerance and hyperinsulinemia improved (P < 0.001). Weight reduced by 0.9 ± 0.2 kg (P < 0.001) and fat-free mass by 0.6 kg (P = 0.04).

Saw this reply on a reddit thread (literally a study on mental ill patients, most of which left the hospital):

"The Minnesota Coronary Survey compared high polyunsaturated with high saturated fat diets in patients hospitalized for mental illness. The participants were given the assigned diets only when they were patients in the hospital. Because hospitalization for mental illness became less common and less prolonged after the study started, as a national trend, the patients received the assigned diets intermittently, contrary to the intent of the researchers, and for a much shorter time than planned. The researchers originally enrolled 9570 participants in the trial and intended to study them for at least 3.6 years to be able to adequately test the effect of the diets. However, the trend toward outpatient treatment of mental illness resulted in ≈75% of the participants being discharged from inpatient care during the first year of the study. Only about half the remaining patients stayed in the study for at least 3 years. The average duration was only 384 days. The incidence of CHD events was similar in the 2 groups, 25.7 and 27.2 per 1000 person-years in the control and polyunsaturated fat groups, respectively. A recent reanalysis of this trial restricted to the participants who remained in the trial for at least 1 year also found no significant differences in CHD events or CHD deaths.39 We excluded this trial from the core group because of the short duration, large percentage of withdrawals from the study, and intermittent treatment, which is not relevant to clinical practice. Another concern is the use of lightly hydrogenated corn oil margarine in the polyunsaturated fat diet. This type of margarine contains trans linoleic acid, the type of trans fatty acid most strongly associated with CHD."
