Eating more red meat tied to higher diabetes risk (1081 hits)

(Reuters Health) - Increasing the number of hamburgers and other red meat people eat on a daily basis is linked to a higher risk of developing diabetes down the road, according to a new study.

"I think the difference is enough to encourage people at least not to increase red meat consumption, and then think about ways to reduce the consumption," said the study's lead author An Pan, a professor at the National University of Singapore, in an email to Reuters Health.

It's really ironic, but as I'm getting older I like meat less and less; I know I have to have protein but I hate most dairy products! Ugh!
