Speaking as the son of a cattle rancher, I can tell you right now that the beef we produce is not unhealthy in the least. As with all things, if you eat too much meat, perhaps you will gain weight due to fat content, but that can be said of many things. Beef in and of itself is not bad at all for you.

As a seperate response I totally agree with you. I think the new healthy diets are just people learning to eat correctly. Herbivore, omnivore and carnivore which seem to be referred to presently as vegan, vegetarian, and american.
The vegans say you can live on fruit, vegetables and water which was argued for a long time but then they added things like "5 or 6 small meals a day and lots of exercise". Decades ago in school I learned that herbivores diet was not as efficient and they had to eat all day to sustain themselves. No problem, they are figuring it out.
The vegetarians say fish, fowl, fruits, vegetables, milk eggs. 3 meals a day and light exercise. Very ittle red meat. OK thats basic omnivore rules. The basic habits that sustain rats or bears or apes. Pretty much what Man was expected to be.
Carnivores eat one big meal. Once a day or less. They have little physical activity. Some roughage at other times of the day (in other words plants make ok snacks).
Health problems IMHO are from people trying to mix and match. Its difficult to try and mix the meal arrangments with the exercise arrangments with the food arrangments from different Groups.
