A new analysis from NHANES confirms that usual intakes of animal proteins were not associated with increased risk of all-cause, cardiovascular, or cancer mortality—and in fact, red meat was linked to lower cancer mortality! Yes, more evidence supports the fact that beef is actually anti-cancer 😎 The authors also found no link between IGF-1 levels and disease risk, contradicting earlier theories that red meat increases cancer via IGF-1. This reinforces what I've always argued: red meat is not only safe, but also beneficial when consumed as part of a nutrient-dense, whole-foods diet. When you start our program, you need extra protein to facilitate and support detox and healing. On a daily basis, you need to consume the equivalent of your weight in grams. If you weigh 150lbs, you need to consume 150g of protein every day.
