Is Red Meat Healthy? 

One one end of the spectrum we’ve got people telling us that it causes cancer and heart disease and should be avoided at all costs and then people on the other end of the aisle who say it is a superfood and we should build our diet around it. 

But what is the truth?

In this episode of the podcast we are going to break down the science of this topic and talk about: 

• Define what red meat is
• Discuss the nutrition in red meat 
• Potentially problematic ingredients
• The population based studies looking at red meat and health outcomes 
• Randomized controlled trials looking at red meat and health outcomes 
• Tie it all together and help you take away some important points
