This study does not differentiate between cooked and raw meet. The link
they are making is between purine and gout. Does raw meat have less purine
than cooked meat?

for raw plant foods to avoid gout.

If cooked meat is the problem, why don't they simply eat raw meat. There is

Are you aware of any scientific evidence that cooked meat aggravates

If not, please stop blaming cooked meat for any and all physical ailments.
Your unsubstantiated claims about cooked meat are annoying.
