After the alarm that has been created regarding the declarations and new guidelines of the World Health Organization, many people are trying to understand if it is possible to eat meat without running health risks, and how much meat to eat.
To find out all about the association between meats, processed meats and the WHO guidelines , I refer you to this article , which can curb your concerns in this regard a little. I will try to make a speech not only on the quantity considered safe, but also on quality, and as a parameter I will use the recommendations of the doctors and the Mediterranean diet as a reference dietary plan.

HOW MUCH MEAT TO EAT? AND HOW MANY CURED MEATS?
How much meat to eat? You can eat up to 300 grams of red meat per week, or approximately 1-2 servings, considering the average cuts of steaks or hamburgers (about 200 g) and slices (100 g). About fifty grams of cured meats per week can be consumed in all.

WHAT KIND OF RED MEAT TO PREFER?
There are two considerations for those who want to eat red meat with an eye to health. Many people, especially after the advent of some dietary regimes such as Paleodieta or Whole Diet, where it is recommended to return to a natural food and not industrially treated, have also become interested in local breeding and the phenomenon of grass-fed animals in Italy., that is, grass-fed animals. Often the same animals are not only guaranteed grazing, but also living conditions different from intensive farming. Why are grass-fed animals considered healthier than grain-fed animals? The speech is complex, I summarize it here: animals treated with cereals may have a higher content of polyunsaturated fatty acids in their meat, and they also suffer the effects of an incorrect diet, that of cereals, when it comes to herbivorous animals. It is difficult for the large animal, but the soy and corn-fed pig will undoubtedly have a higher content of polyunsaturated fatty acids in its meat and liver problems such as to affect the quality of the meat.
When in doubt, prefer beef instead of pork and try to find out from your trusted butcher.
Let’s say that the excess of polyunsaturated fatty acids, or an imbalance of the omega 6/3 fatty acid ratio, is typical of modern diets, and is linked to the risk of cardiovascular health according to some experts. The excess of omega 6 fatty acids, which to a limited extent are protective for cardiovascular health, itself becomes a health problem. This is partly explained by their ease of rancidity. To find out more, search the web for the story of the “Israeli paradox”.
