It is very important to keep yourself healthy to live a good life. To approach a healthy lifestyle, there are many types of diet plans and exercise methods available in the market. However, many people believe that eating red meat, junk food, and other carbohydrate-rich foods has a bad influence on people’s health. However, the IFBB Pro bodybuilder, Stan Efferding, has a different viewpoint and shared his opinion regarding this.

Stan Efferding opines on consuming meat

He explains in the video that consuming meat doesn’t affect anyone’s health, although not maintaining the protein level in your body might risk your health as he mentions that “there’s a difference between acute and chronic inflammation or mTOr stimulation and the acute inflammation or stimulation of mTOR doesn’t seem to be a problem”. He illustrated that as people grow old and they somehow don’t eat an intake of protein-rich food, it will affect their longevity. However, to perpetuate this, having protein in any form, whether its red meat or any other meat, will help you.

In addition, he describes that when people grow old; it is common to become metabolically resistant. “They don’t eat enough protein and they suffer from sarcopenia and that can be a bigger problem for mortality risk than consuming red meat or any meat,” said Efferding.
