One of the topics of particular interest is the consumption of red meat, which, despite its popularity, can have a significant impact on the cardiovascular system.

This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to the Telegram channel “Blog about health”.

Optimal amount of red meat

According to leading experts, the safe amount of red meat that can be included in the diet does not exceed 350-500 grams per week. This amount allows you to satisfy the body's needs for protein and other nutrients, but at the same time minimize the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.

Why should you avoid processed meat?

However, doctors strongly recommend completely eliminating processed meat products such as sausages, hot dogs and other similar products from the diet. The high salt content in these products contributes to the narrowing of blood vessels and fluid retention in the body, which can lead to high blood pressure and other negative health consequences.

Conclusions

Introducing moderate restrictions on the consumption of red meat and giving up processed meat products is an important step towards maintaining the health of the heart and blood vessels. A healthy diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits and sources of lean protein is the key to longevity and an active life without illness.
