Dr. Roizen: The Hidden Dangers of Red Meat

A few weeks ago (March 30) the New York Times Had an Op-Ed entitled "Red Meat Is Not the Enemy." I discussed the problem with red meat on YOU: The Owner's Manual Radio Show the following weekend.

This week, a person who wished to remain anonymous sent me a follow-up question on why I still avoid red meat. Here is the gist of my reply to her, and also to another person, who also asked the question (that "other person," by the way, is the ping-pong opponent who often beats me and claims his ping-pong prowess comes from his red meat eating habit)...

Show me red meat that has no carnitine, lecithin, or choline -- the inflammation-causing proteins that constitute it -- and I will agree with you.
