I literally eat wild game 5-6 nights a week. Elk ... deer... Oryx.... Niagil.... anything wild game is my diet.

1st I ever heard of this problem of red meat.

Yes, you are doomed. You better send it all to me.

It talks about processed and unprocessed. Processed like bacon and ham is definitely bad. I can't make out the medical jargon for the unprocessed discussion.

Causation or correlation? In the short text that was free, there was no accounting for the myriad of other factors that could influence dementia. Factors like obesity, sugar intake, fitness/activity level, environmental pollutants, and on and on - all of these have fairly dramatic affects on the brain. Pretty sure you're safe if you take care of yourself.

this x’s 100! Lots of the “red meat bad” studies weren’t looking at people eating steaks and salads rather people who lived off McDonalds burgers and fries and didn’t exercise…

If you're doomed then I'm really doomed, but what can you do.....I'm not stopping my eating of red meat, processed or otherwise. So there you go.

I'm more worried about pesticides in my veggies.
Nothing wrong with wild game.

We're all doomed. Nobody gets our alive so do what makes you happy.

There are some problems with the abstract that was provided. One is that is an abstract and the full study would be needed for me to make a true determination about the study validity (seems like a waste of time). The second problem is that 77% of the sample for subjective cognitive decline are women. Even the objective data skews female at 65%. The raises some red flags on a cohort study as they are prone to selection bias which has the potential to essentially minimize the ability of the study to be applied more generally. As previously noted there isn’t much about type of red meat (presumably overwhelmingly beef) and what a slew of other factors. Rest easy and keep eating game meat.

I was just reminded... and this is a true story. My grandfather ate hot dogs every day of his life. He lived alone, and hot dogs were easy for him. 98 years old, eating processed red meat literally every day. He died with a perfectly clear mind, 100% intact. Cause of death was internal bleeding, nothing related to cognitive decline.

 

[ScreamingPotato]

I'm not sure there's any red meat in hot dogs. We may not actually know what's in a hot dog, but red meat is probably too expensive.

 

[Sccritterkiller]

We are all doomed, have been since birth..no one here gets out alive..Eat all the red meat you can while your here.

 

[Short Track]

The article certainly wasn't clear. Talked about pork, which clearly isn't red meat. Also using standard deviations as too much scientific talk. It should be for the common folk to decipher.

F it, some actually bad habit will kill me first
