Ken goes through the red meat hit list.

For our friends who prefer articles and data you can see the same information here. https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/skeptical-doctors

Berry also cites his references in the video description

I think one of the biggest confounders in the discussions, and the reason people keep talking past each other, is there not considering the metabolic context of a carnivore diet.

A pizza with a little meat on it, is mostly sugar, via carbohydrates. And seed oil.

A fast food meal, is mostly carbohydrates, buns, oils, soda, and a little bit of beef.

These two example meals are really unhealthy, the meat is not what's making it unhealthy

If the basis for your epidemiological cohort considers red meat eaters the people eating pizza and fast food, and not the people doing zero carb carnivore. Everything is going to look bad. Because all of that sugar is really bad

Here is a 13 minute video, Dr saladino orders food from McDonald's, then breaks it down and analyzes it. Really showing that yes there's meat in it, but totality of the meal is really unhealthy. "Metabolic nightmare"

But, in a pinch, just ordering the quarter pounder from McDonald's just the patty is clean. So if you're traveling, it's an option

The McDonald's salt packets even has dextrose (sugar) in them!

Salt, Sodium Silicoaluminate, Dextrose, Potassium Iodide.

That was the advice of Barry Sears 30 years ago in the zone diet book. IIRC his actual advice was two hamburgers rather than the quarter pounder

I just put the regular hamburger patty vs the 1/4lb hamburger patty into their calculator.

They both look clean, good option! (7g protein vs 18g protein)
