Meat Consumption and Health: Food for Thought
A partir de revues systématiques de la littérature, ce dossier présente les recommandations concernant la consommation de viande rouge et de viandes transformées
For some time, medical and science organizations have been beating the drum that red and processed meat are bad for you. For almost as long, they have lamented that their efforts to inform the public have not convinced enough people to change their consumption. This month's issue offers us food for thought on why.
The field of nutritional epidemiology is plagued by observational studies that have conducted inappropriate analyses, accompanied by likely erroneous conclusions. Many studies selectively report results, and many lack an a priori hypothesis. Many use notoriously unreliable self-reports of food consumption while failing to collect or appropriately control for data on numerous potential confounders.
