Red meat vilified again — but should we believe it?

A new study found even 2 servings of red meat per week raises diabetes risk. But the evidence against red meat isn't so clear-cut.

What to know about eating red meat and diabetes risk
A new large observational study found that eating just two servings of red meat per week can substantially increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. But a closer look at the methodology of the study may tell a different story.
To estimate what participants ate, the researchers relied on food frequency questionnaires (FFQs) completed every 2–4 years. FFQs largely depend on an individual's memory and honesty.
People may over-report their consumption of healthy foods, like fruits and vegetables, while underreporting "less healthy" items like ultra-processed foods and red meat. To put it another way, a person may have eaten a lot more of both than they claim, but this doesn't make it into the data.
Great finds
