There is no such thing as healthy red meat. There is little disagreement that eating red meat is an unhealthy practice. It is associated with increased risk of heart attack, diabetes, and some forms of cancer. Multiple studies show this relationship.
Consumption of poultry and fish is not associated with the same risks.
Even Occasional Meat May Be Harmful
