- A new study finds that eating red meat isn’t associated with increased risk of cancer or heart disease.
- This goes against long-held scientific opinion that red meat is associated with an increased risk of certain health conditions.
- But experts say this doesn’t mean you can eat burgers every day, and that more research needs to be done.
We’ve heard it for years: Cut back on red meat in favor of lean meats like fish or chicken. But now researchers say there’s evidence red meat may not be quite as bad for our health as we’ve thought.
