Is red meat like ground beef bad for you??

fufu · 08-27-2006, 06:43 PM

Quick answer - no.

fufu · 08-27-2006, 06:43 PM

Best bet is to buy lean cuts regardless of what beef your eating. Lean or extra lean ground beef for example.

fufu · 08-27-2006, 08:41 PM

I get the organic kind.

Ironandsteel · 08-27-2006, 09:16 PM

I don't know much on organic. Is that considered lean or extra lean

**IainDaniel** · 08-27-2006, 09:18 PM

Get grass fed free-range beef

Vieope · 08-27-2006, 09:23 PM

You must be joking, oh you must be joking. Can you buy the type of beef based on the type of food it eats?

Yes, there is actually a logic to it though, which I don't want to explain because I am going to bed. hehe

Burgers are low in fat if ya get sirloin. Just read the label in the store. Market is very greasy and much higher in fat.

I do burgers cause theyre 1/4 the $ of steak.

Free range??? lol who cares.

Sausage actucally has 20g of protein per link where i shop but 20g's of fat too

I know, the way they prepare that expensive beef made in japan is awesome.

Good night fufu. Die.

Ironandsteel · 08-27-2006, 09:50 PM

whatever the type... lean or extra lean. That's all I know on the subject. And no I didn't just reseach that it's just fact. less sat fat.

Diablo1990 · 08-27-2006, 11:00 PM

The thing is I have googled it and have seen some bad things about it, do you think I will be find and just worrying to much?

Ironandsteel · 08-28-2006, 01:06 AM

I've seen that most people here take diet and nutrion rather laxadasial; I do not so I will reiterate what I've already said. You need not worry but the healthiest alternative is to buy lean Ground Beef or better yet extra lean Ground Beef.

i agree 100%. very true but not the laxadasical (i never knew it was spelled like that) part.

wilwn · 08-28-2006, 02:51 AM

get sirloin steak. it's lean, cheap, and yummy.

blueboy75 · 08-28-2006, 06:37 AM

I actually buy lean cuts of cubed lamb and beef then mince it myself in the food processor.

Yes it makes a huge difference.

Diablo1990 · 08-28-2006, 12:08 PM

If I stir fry ground beef or chicken is that bad or it's ok?

**IainDaniel** · 08-28-2006, 12:18 PM

It is fine depending on the oil you use.

Diablo1990 · 08-28-2006, 12:25 PM

Olive Oil

DOMS · 08-28-2006, 02:18 PM

Just remember that all oil is fat. Just make sure it fits into your dietary needs.

paphieta · 08-28-2006, 02:35 PM

If you have a Trader Joe's around, they sell 96% lean ground beef

Good response Yanick. Sorry for the mis-spelling.

I am stepping in the health thing a little at a time. Each week I add a few more things to my menu, Add a couple more to my breakfast menu. Etc. You go with what you know, then add to it as you learn. I like beef! Start with lean beef and work from there.
