Red meat consumption, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Followers of diets that promote the consumption of processed and unprocessed red meat may have a high tendency to suffer from stroke, heart failure, coronary heart disease, gestational diabetes, and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

This study explored whether preference for red meats is associated with the development of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes mellitus. Researchers conducted a meticulous meta-analysis on data obtained from 70 studies. 

High dietary ingestion of processed and unprocessed red meat was found to increase the risk of developing stroke, heart failure, coronary heart disease, gestational diabetes, and type 2 diabetes mellitus in this study. Based on the data from this study, we can safely conclude that a high red meat diet may be a contributing factor to the development of diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
