Q- Going back to protein, what is it about red meat that doctors say is bad for you? A- Well you know fatty meats or red meats are typically higher in fat and the fat is generally a higher saturated fat than say, poultry. It would be the saturation of fat in the meat. To make a blanket statement that red meat is bad for you would be overkill. It certainly wouldn’t be healthy to base your diet on red meat alone and consume unlimited amounts of saturated fat, but then again we talked about the bioavailability of the protein qualities and meat proteins in particular even though they may contain higher levels of saturated fat have an extremely high biological value. That means that the protein in the meat is going to be absorbed in the body much better than some other sources of protein. An example would be the protein found in wheat flour or cake flour or our bodies can’t always use bread that contains protein very well, but the meat protein contains all the essential amino acids and can be utilized by the body. It comes down to an understanding of not throwing out the baby with the bath water, if you eat a cut of good beef just be aware of the amount of fat and balance it out the next day.
Q- What are some of the other sources of protein? A- Eggs are a tremendous source of protein. The egg white has an abundance of all the right amino acids and is easily digested and absorbed into the body. Egg whites may have the bioavailability of 100% because it is a reference protein. Meat protein is very close to the egg protein as compared to some of the grain proteins. The yolk contains quite a lot of fat but is also a good source of protein. In clinical trials some individuals have consumed a dozen eggs every day his cholesterol level was fine or below normal and then there are other people who seem to be predisposed to that kind of fat. Some people don’t have any negative forms of fat as compared to others. Q- How about an all vegan diet, is it healthy? A- Actually it is. There was a pretty significant study done that was widely published. They tried to study the influence of consuming alcohol and smoking and make a fair comparison. What I remember from the study is that they concluded that if you were a vegetarian you would live an average of seven years longer. There is something to be said for it but it comes down to knowledge and balancing. You have to be cautious when going to a vegetarian diet and knowledgeable about it. Like it’s harder to get the adequate amount of B vitamins on a vegetarian diet and you have to know which foods to eat to get the right amount of vitamins and minerals. So you have to be knowledgeable when going into it. CHAPTER 5. Carbohydrates
