DINNER IS SERVED
People have eaten beef for thousands of years. But how healthy is to eat beef. In the last few decades many people decided they do not want to eat red meat. They thought it has too much fat and cholesterol. Many nutritionists, people who study healthy and unhealthy food, told people that eating red meat can give them high risk for heart attacks. So, for many years people decided that to eat healthy diet they have to not eat much meat. But then there was more research. Few years ago a man named Dr. Atkins surprised everyone because he claimed that you can eat as much meat as you want and lose weight and lower cholesterol. You just had to give up carbohydrates such as grains, fruits, and most vegetables. Thousands of people lost weight on his diet. But, not everyone thinks it is healthy. So what's the answer.
Here are some facts about beef:
USDA has done research to compare 3 oz of lean steak to 1 oz of skinless chicken breast (both were cooked)
Many nutritionist agree that it is in between. Red meat has more fat and cholesterol, but you can choose lean cuts and cook them without butter and oil. If you add vegetables and grains you will have a balance meal. Nutritionist talk a lot abut balance!
