Recent research suggests that not all meat is detrimental to health, with distinctions between processed and unprocessed meats being crucial.

Quality matters, as grass-fed and organic meats may offer more health benefits and less risk. The key to a healthy diet may not be to eliminate meat entirely but to consume a balanced and diverse diet that includes high-quality meats in moderation.
