Because there isn’t a good alternative to red meat?
Ever heard of plants?
You can’t get the same amount of amino acids that you can with meat without consuming 1000s of excess calories.
Also iron from plants is hardly bioavailable.
Well vegans do it, so it must be available enough
soylent would like to have a word.
I tried it, that stuff runs right through me. It’s highly processed junk.
I get like half my calories from it
You should do a blood test with your doctor, for science!
it will probably be a year before I get around to that
but I'll let you know
Have you tried beyond burgers they taste just like the real thing and so humanity can skip the cruelty of lining cows in a narrow chute and slaughtering them unceremoniously.
Those are junk. Not healthy at all.
Research says red meat isn’t for your heart health
Excessive red meat you mean? Same goes for excessive fried potatoes. Everything in moderation
Red meat is also a class A2 carcinogen byw.
So is glyphosate which is used to grow many plant based food crops.
Hot beverages are another that have the same classification.
Same goes for processed plant based products if you want healthy tasty meals there’s plenty of whole food planted based recipes out there for you to try.
I can’t get the iron I need from plants alone. Plant-based iron has very low bioavailability. I will always eat meat for health reasons since iron deficiency runs in my family.
