Well-Done Meat May Be Bad For Your Blood Pressure

2018-03-27

Headline may be a touch dramatic. Actually, according to the article:
The study, of more than 100,000 U.S. adults, found the odds of high blood pressure were a bit higher among people who liked their meat grilled, broiled or roasted, versus those who favored more temperate cooking methods.

The same was true of people who were partial to well-done meat. Compared with fans of rarer meat, they were 15 percent more likely to develop high blood pressure over 12 to 16 years.
Still, anyone who gets a steak well done deserves whatever happens to them.

Don’t tell the Special Forces guys who developed different habits in the field.

#13 Ed in Texas -- Turkey ham? Who knew? Not me. Seems kinda wobbly of 'em... not that I'm in any position to preach about food or backbone.

#11 A stupid project to confirm that eating meat (i.e., Bambi, moo cows, chickies, duckies, Porky Pig) are bad for your health. This has some vegan/PETA agenda stamped all over it.

Consider that man ate meat as a primary source of nutrition until about 7000 years ago. Agriculture began on the premise that the alcohol from fermenting wet bread was an effective water purifier.

This don't eat meat shit is getting old.

I like my steak medium rare, I like eating protein from animals and my blood pressure only goes up in the presence of idiot vegetarians trying to tell me that their diet is more "natural" for man than broiled Mammoth or sauted water buffalo.

#10 Not what I'd call crystal clear -

People who grilled, broiled or roasted their meat more than 15 times a month had a 17 percent greater risk of high blood pressure, versus people who used those cooking methods fewer than four times a month. "Meat" included beef, poultry and fish.

#9 Hey ZF! On a parallel note, read yesterday that one of the rabbi's on the european committee that certifies food as kosher stated that in his opinion, pork grown in a laboratory would be kosher. As it didn't come from an unclean animal, etc.
I do know that Israel is second in the world in consumption of turkey ham, right ahead of Saudi Arabia.
The end times are upon us.

#5 Stupid people make my blood pressure go up.

#4 My wife, reading this tidbit, will result in, er, "guidance" from her regarding how I grill (always indirectly).

As a result of her "guidance," my blood pressure will go up; I guess boiled strip steak will be the way of the future.
