I do not agree, nor have I ever agreed about leaving out red meat and eggs.

I still stand by that. Red meat is the only source of the type of high

quality iron that is easily absorbed by the body, other forms simply are not

absorbed that well. Also, red meat is an excellent source of B12, which is

one of the nutrients that I used to have a problem with, if only because of

undertreatment with the thyroid hormones. I have never yet had an iron

deficiency problem, through all of this, though I have had a folic acid

deficiency, when still undertreated. There are other forms of iron in

things like beans, etc....but none of them is absorbed like this form of

iron. Those who don't eat red meat always need an iron supplement, if their

labs show anemia or close to it. Yes, it has saturated fat, but all things

in moderation. I still eat one serving of red meat once a day in order to

feel good. If I don't, I don't feel good at all, after a couple of days

without it. I also have low cholesterols, always, higher in the good ones,

lower in the bad ones, with normal to low triclycerides.
