in this video I want to answer the

question is red-meat actually good for

you or bad for you

now if you watch the news where you read

the news or you’re on the internet

you’re gonna hear that it is very bad

for you it’s gonna cause cancer it’s

gonna cause diabetes it’s going to give

you a heart attack

okay because there’s studies that show

that right well the next time someone

tells you that or you hear that or you

see that in some article follow up and

ask either ask the person what was the

study you’re referring to or even if

they actually do a an article pull the

string and actually read the actual

study because what you’re gonna find out

it will be something called an

observational study

okay that’s based on a question here so

it’s like asking a large group of people

over the last five years what they ate

and first of all how do you know if it’s

the red meat that’s causing the cancer

and not all the other foods that they’re

eating okay so it’s actually ridiculous

it’s not even a good study to do to

prove anything okay and also they will

never do Studies on grass fed red meat

okay or organic red meat it’s always

going to be probably on some processed

meat and they’re not going to

differentiate this because if they did

they would find that consuming organic

grass fed red meat does not cause cancer

diabetes or heart problems so they won’t

do that study so the truth is that

studies don’t show this link okay now it

is true that there are certain toxins or

toxicity when you overly cook red meat

or other meat okay but if you don’t

overly cook your meat and you don’t

deep-fry it and you’re doing it medium

rare or rare you’re going to be in much

better shape also if you add mustard to

that hamburger or meat or garlic or

rosemary or pepper basil oregano and

other herbs you’re going to greatly

minimize that toxic effect okay that

being said I want to switch over to

another situation in which read me

would be a problem and that is this if

you if you have too much iron okay too

much iron is very very toxic to your

body so I would highly recommend the

next time you’re at your doctor’s office

have them test iron because if it’s too

high it can be very dangerous also if

it’s too low it’s very very dangerous

because iron is a strong oxidant so it

oxidate things that kind of rust things

out it can affect the the heart it can

affect the brain it can affect the liver

and cause cirrhosis it can even cause

cancer now the problem with iron is your

body has a real hard time getting rid of

iron now if you’re a woman and you’re

menstruating you’re going to be able to

get rid of it every month but if you’re

a guy or you’re postmenopausal you’re

gonna tend to hold on to that iron and

it could be a problem now there are

certain genetic problems that even make

it worse like this one

hemochromatosis beta thalassemia and

sickle-cell in which case donating blood

might be a really good idea because you

can actually get rid of the excess iron

are you gonna feel a lot better now I

put a link down below of a video that I

did to show the symptoms of iron

overload and what you should do but one

of the remedies would be EDTA this is

the key later and this can pull out iron

it’ll pull out other minerals but you

can put other minerals back in just

don’t put back in the iron you may also

want to modify what you cook your food

in like if it’s a iron skillet for

example you might want to replace that

also check your supplements I do not

recommend consuming supplements with

added iron because you don’t need to do

that if you want to get your iron in

your deficient a little bit of red meat

would be fine or actually liver will be

fine but in the supplements they’re

usually giving you the wrong type and it

can be a bit toxic over time also if you

drink a lot of alcohol or you’re an

alcoholic that can exaggerate this

problem even worse or

if your food is fortified now if you’re

doing the ketogenic diet you’re not

doing grains so you don’t worry about it

but if you’re new to my channel and

you’re consuming breads and pasta and

grains and you live in the US or Canada

or the UK those are fortified with iron

and that’s pretty toxic anyway I just

wanted to create a video on red meat

because it’s not a simple answer there’s

a couple parts to it so step one don’t

overly cook your meat step two do

grass-fed organic just ignore these

studies if you’re doing this right here

because they’re not real studies and the

next time you’re at your doctor’s office

just make sure that you get your iron

check just to make sure it’s not too

high alright thanks for watching if
