New health guidelines from expert committee says to reduce meat, eat more plants

I'm not taking health advice from an Axios article. Nor am I taking health advice from the USDA.

what about common sense?

reagan21

12/11/24 6:03pm

Same advice given in the word of wisdom but… he is not going to hear it.

Baron

You can follow the WOW and be in horrific shape.

Samsonite

12/11/24 7:03pm

And? Just saying the advice to eat plants and less meat is not controversial

Baron

12/11/24 7:36pm

That it’s not good advice at all

Samsonite

12/11/24 9:33pm

Generally agree. More protein. Less sugar. Fewer carbs. Were obese because we

Yep. Meat fills you up and gives you nutrients. Less addictive and not as easy to snack all day on. It is 100% not

Samsonite

Over consumption of meat might be hurting us in some other ways - maybe heart

Jay Rick

12/11/24 10:06pm

Eating meat is not bad for your heart. Fat is good for your body. It’s needed.

Samsonite

12/11/24 10:09pm

Cardiovascular disease is correlated with an increase in meat consumption worldwide, not just in America.

In no world apparently can you ever need to have less meat according to Samsonite. He knows more than

Baron

12/12/24 6:22am

I’ll bet you believe in the food pyramid too. Trust the experts!!!

Samsonite

12/12/24 6:23am

No. I believe you can eat too much meat.

Baron

12/12/24 6:27am

Well keep pounding the sugar and processed garbage I guess.

Samsonite

12/12/24 6:30am

Well as anyone knows, saying you can have too much meat does not mean that. The complete lack of logic to reach that

Baron

12/12/24 6:34am

Meat is not causing you to be fat. It’s processed, modern food. I’ll keep saying it.

Samsonite

12/12/24 6:36am

Fine. I expect no less. Someday you may actually respond to words I have said.

Baron

12/12/24 6:43am

Well that's a false equivalency. Nobody is saying eat sugar or processed food.

runnincoug

12/12/24 6:42am

Comes from processed food, sugar, and sedentary lifestyle. 100% not meat.

Samsonite

12/12/24 6:22am

Literally studied in non Western countries where they don't have processed foods.

TN_Coug

12/12/24 6:36am

Meat is not causing the obesity epidemic at all.

Samsonite

12/11/24 7:01pm

Research says meat is associated with obesity.

runnincoug

12/11/24 8:26pm

Carbs, processed food, and sugar. Eat as much meat and veggies and fruit as you want. It’s not hard.

Samsonite

12/11/24 9:34pm

That's your opinion but not what the research says that I just shared

runnincoug

12/11/24 9:52pm

Right. Because government funded research about diet is never wrong. I eat a lot of meat and have 11% body fat.

Samsonite

12/11/24 9:54pm

I don't eat much meat and I'm trim too. See that's why we need research

runnincoug

12/11/24 10:17pm

Meat is not the problem.

Samsonite

12/12/24 5:55am

And your research evidence is....? Opinions matter more then research?

runnincoug

12/12/24 6:43am

I wonder if a lot of that is burgers?

UNLVcougar

12/11/24 10:46pm

I’m sure it’s people eat lots of meat and tons of garbage as well.

Samsonite

12/12/24 5:55am

He’s not taking that either. He prefers his sense uncommon

Ditto. I'm going with this guy!

But we spent what $100 mil in tax dollars to determine this?

No thanks. That's dumb.

That's basically President Nelson's diet.

It was also basically my friend's diet. He died from cancer at 45.

you heard it here first, folks. Plants cause premature death

reagan21

Were his veggies from California? Should have read the label

There a lot of ways to skin that cat…

niqmadu

12/11/24 6:09pm

once you skin it though, I wouldn't eat it. Veggies is the better option

reagan21

My cow ate the veggies. So did my rabbit. I eat them and only

Eating healthy doesn’t make you live longer. It only makes it feel longer

I don't think eating meat is what is leading to obesity.

UNLVcougar

12/11/24 6:33pm

I’m making bacon, eggs, and toast for dinner. 586 calories and macros that work for me today.

Eat more fruits and vegetables? Was Marx himself heading the expert committee???

vagabonder

12/11/24 6:36pm

Plants? With all of their defense mechanisms?

TNT

Should be eating more meat and less sufar and snack foods. Eating LESS meat isn’

Nah. Terrible advice.

Al Michaels is on line two.

...how is this not common sense? I'm baffled at the responses here.

NGB

Meat and if obesity is actually bad are now political issues.

vagabonder

12/12/24 7:22am

I get that, but... veggies = good is the most obvious thing in the world

NGB

Soros wants you to eat plants. Are you going to let him win?

vagabonder

Apparently not

Who said veggies aren't good? Link?

The literal first paragraph of the article is ...

runnincoug

Should be simply eat more meat and more veggies.

kotacoug

But the research doesn't support eating MORE meat.

runnincoug

12/12/24 1:21pm

‘Research’ supported all sorts of things. You can literally find research that

kotacoug

That's how science works... always progressing and testing ideas. Still better

runnincoug

12/14/24 5:58am

This is not a good diet

Skeptical Optimist

12/12/24 7:17am

I think a plant-rich diet and sparing meat intake was recommended back in 1833.

TailgateU

Those are some words ... of wisdom I'd say. 😉

runnincoug

12/12/24 1:22pm

But only in times of famine cold or winter. Is that what you are saying we
