The 10th statement of the Hippocratic Oath states “I will prevent disease whenever I can, for prevention is preferable to cure.” Limiting red meat consumption can help accomplish this.

Kidney Toxins: Linked to Red Meat Consumption?

Death from heart disease and stroke is closely related to trimethylamine oxide (TMAO) in red meat and other animal proteins. These proteins appear to “increase the ability of inflammatory cells in artery walls to bind to LDL cholesterol” and create blood clots.

It seems that meat’s TMAO also contributes to kidney failure, as evidenced by the high levels of TMAO in diabetics who later died of heart disease.

Apparently, TMAO counteracts the body’s natural ability to get rid of cholesterol.

To view more about the problems generated by red meat’s TMAO, see nutritionfacts.org/video/how-to-treat-heart-failure-and-kidney-failure-with-diet/
