Hi Robin,
The data against red meats is, in every research report I've read that
finds problems associated with red meat consumption, based on
information gathered about processed meats. These researchers seem to
think that it may all legitimately be called "red meats" despite the
fact that much of it has been highly processed and contains all manner
of chemicals and allergenic additives.
The anti-fat mantra is based on a lot of B.S. Please read Gary Taubes'
"Good Calories Bad Calories" for a more scientifically sound
perspective. Inflammation is not usually the result of eating fats
whether saturated or unsaturated. Trans fats are another story, but I
doubt that your doctor differentiated between these when he recommended
that you reduce your fat intake. .
Best Wishes,
Ron
