The proof has been there a long time, but some things are just too radical for society to grasp. However, finally there are definitive proof that red meat is bad for you. The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) has publiched a report and there is no doubt anymore.
They don't say you should not eat red meat at all, that would be too radical, even with the proof before your eyes. After all, our society is build around eating meat. Telling people not to eat meat, is like telling don't go to church 100 years ago. But just like most people don't go to church anymore (thank God) we should not eat red meat.
The protein we gain from red meat is not only tough on your body, but on the world as well. In early days when cows walked around peacefully eating grass it was all ok. But it is no longer the case. Food is no longer produced in idyllic farms - food is an industry. An industry that consumes vast amounts of energy, antibiotics, drugs, fertilizers and so forth. The animals are often fed soya protein that has been shipped eg from South America to Europe. We could eat that soya protein ourselves and save 10 times the volume!
WCRF say lack of iron is a reason for women to eat meat. That is an old-fashined viewpoint I'd say. You can eat eg green vegs and fish to keep up your iron levels and if that wouldn't help you can take iron pills. In all, that is much better than eating red meat!
So, be pro-active, stop eating that shit.
