Deep dives
Impact of Meat Consumption on Diabetes Risk
Research indicates that higher meat consumption is associated with an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes. A study involving 2 million adults from various countries found that individuals who consumed more red and processed meats were more likely to develop diabetes over a ten-year period. Conversely, those who consumed the least amount of meat showed the lowest risk levels. This suggests that red and processed meats may not be a healthy dietary choice and highlights the benefits of a plant-based diet that includes legumes and whole foods.
