17 Jun 2020 --- Two new studies have brought the debate on the health impact of meat consumption to the fore once again. A German study found that the less animal-derived food incorporated into a person’s diet, the lower their body mass index (BMI) is on average. Meanwhile, substituting lean, unprocessed beef for carbohydrates in a Western diet had no significant effects on the heart health of test subjects with prediabetes in a US study. NutritionInsight spoke with both papers’ researchers on how their respective results may shape consumers’ dietary relationships with meat consumption.
