👉 ABOUT EATING MEAT

Apostle Paul said :

In Romans 14:21, ESV: “It is good not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that causes your brother to stumble.

By now, you’ve probably heard that eating meat is bad for you.

The World Health Organization made headlines last year when it declared processed meat a “carcinogen” that increases your risk of colon or rectum cancer by 18 percent. But it’s not just processed meat that poses a health risk — science has known for a while that eating all kinds of animals, including “white meat,” is bad for you. Like, really bad. I myself had a vague idea that eating too much meat wasn’t great for my health, but since I used to only eat “a little” meat, and usually organic at that, I sort of thought of myself as exempt. Well, not so much. While cutting back on your meat consumption in any form is a great step to take, the fact remains that eating any meat — hormone-free or not — poses several serious long-term risks to your health. It’s worth knowing exactly what the health risks of eating meat are, so that you can make an informed decision for yourself about how much of a risk you feel it’s necessary to take by continuing to consume animals.

“Be not among drunkards or among gluttonous eaters of meat,— ( Proverbs 23:20)

Mounting evidence continues to suggest that eating too much red meat — such as bacon and hot dogs — is linked with health problems. A new study finds that changes in your red-meat-eating habits can be tied to your risk of early death. An increase in red meat consumption of at least half a serving per day was linked with a 10% higher risk of early death in the study, published in the medical journal BMJ on Wednesday. Replacing red meat with other protein sources may help you live longer, the study found.
