NEW VIDEO: Is Meat Bad for You? Is Meat Unhealthy?

Here are our sources: https://sites.google.com/view/sourcesismeathealthy/ Anything relating to nutrition is very controversial unfortunately. So if you want to, you can find sources telling you that every kind of diet is bad for you. We tried very hard not to do that and get a real understanding what the health effects of meat are. We also did not have a particular bias, we have vegetarians and meat eaters in the team. And in general, since our first meat video many of us have reduced their meat consumption or at least try to. There is a video about milk in the making right now and we also just started a video about veganism. Look forward to more diet related videos next year. 

NEW VIDEO: Is Meat Bad for You? Is Meat Unhealthy?

Hey! Which bird is mine? I must know!

Ethics - the answer is in their other video about meat and climate change

For some strange reason I did not get any email on last couple videos.

I also thought absolute risk over relative risk would have been a better idea

Disappointed with the misuse of statistics when discussing red meats and processed meats. It's misleading to talk about an increase in risk without first mentioning the initial chance that's being increased. For example if the chance of getting colorectal cancer were 1 in 10, and a behaviour increased that risk by 50% it would be very alarming, but if the initial risk were 1 in 10 million, a 50% increase would make very little difference in your chances, and many people might choose to ignore it or prioritize it below other concerns. Quoting only a level of increase without the initial risk just serves to scare people without providing useful actionable data.

I loved the video, but the depiction of arterial plaque isn't great. It's further popularizing the notion that you have "fat" in your arteries, when in fact it's more like a wax that is made up of a number of different materials (including some fat, but also fibrin and calcium).

Enjoyed this, thanks. I've reduced my meat intake, now most of the meat I enjoy is also from a small pastured farm where the animals have space to roam.

Hello. Me and my friend Jonah are a Patreon supporter as of 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately, we did not see our name pop up in the description :( We'd like some help with this, as we payed the $5 tier. Thank you for the help. -Hannah & Jonah

Can we please get captions on this video? Not seeing them on YouTube other than auto-generated. Thanks!!

Very difficult topic to fit into such a small video. Felt like there was definitely a bias towards veganism though.

How about the high levels of mercury, micro plastics, radiation in fish? High levels of antibiotics, hormones and salmonella in chicken? The bad things overcome any benefits of meat in general. The reduction of meat consumption may not be the explanation for better health, but the increase in consumption of fruits, vegetables and whole plant foods in general. I’m a bit disappointed that the video, in a way, stimulates the consumption of other types of meat apart from red meat.

Anything is bad for me. At the end why not do bad things just to live shorter? I don't want to become 120 years old.

I love meat
