“…Meat constitutes a significant part of the human diet due to its nutritional value. Although the meat consumption has a negative impact on the environment and is classified as a probable human carcinogen [2], it is an exceptional source of valuable nutrients, including highly bioavailable essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals [3]. However, its consumption is subjected to consumer concerns, lifestyles, and preferences, as well as cultural and geographical factors.…”

“…Although the optimal amount of proteins for muscle maintenance or gain has not yet been defined [ 167 ], a number of studies have suggested a dietary protein intake of >1.5 g/kg/day as a combined approach to counteract muscle wasting in cancer patients [ 168 , 169 ]. Interestingly, red and processed meat consumption is associated with higher risk of developing multiple cancers and with increased risk of overall cancer mortality [ 170 ], pointing to the importance of defining the optimal quantity, composition, and timing of protein intake.…”

“…While some of this optimism is well placed in balancing diets, the recent realization of the significant contribution that livestock play in the greenhouse gas output has added a further level of complexity to the equation. The advice of dietitians in dictating consumer food choices is also playing an important role in limiting meat consumption due to its link with a range of cancers ( Huang et al, 2021 ) most noticeably in high-income countries, but also now in developing and transition economies. However, this report has also identified a possible role for red meat working in conjunction with the colonic biome to inhibit colon cancer ( Abu-Ghazaleh et al, 2021 ).…”
