I dont think cutting meat entirely out of your diet is a good idea. Keep eating fish at the very least.

i'm sorry to be blunt but this is simply nonsense. see, e.g., the long-running framingham heart study.

Uh?

“In Framingham, Massachusetts, the more saturated fat one ate, the more cholesterol one ate, the more calories one ate, the lower people’s serum cholesterol. . . we found that the people who ate the most cholesterol, ate the most saturated fat, ate the most calories weighed the least and were the most physically active.” - William Castelli, MD, Director, The Framingham Study

“The diet-heart hypothesis has been repeatedly shown to be wrong, and yet, for complicated reasons of pride, profit and prejudice, the hypothesis continues to be exploited by scientists, fund-raising enterprises, food companies and even governmental agencies. The public is being deceived by the greatest health scam of the century.” - George Mann, SsD, MD, Former Co-Director, The Framingham Study
