35、early death. The finding goes against other recent research that suggested removing meat from ones diet has few health benefits. The two opposing findings can make it difficult for people to make sense of what can seem to be conflicting messages on food.Duane Mellor, a dietician at Aston University,

37、han 70 grams per day would be sensible.”A researcher with ties to the meat industry published a report on the subject in 2019, saying that people should not reduce the amount of red meat they eat. Some experts criticized the findings because they were in conflict with dietary advice from internation

Norrina Allen, a co-leader of the latest study, said the health risk is small but people should try

39、 to change their diet. “Its a small difference, but its worth trying to reduce red meat and processed meat.” She added that eating red meat is also regularly “linked to other health problems like cancer.”The World Cancer Research Fund says red and processed meat may cause cancer.

Eating red meat is linked to higher risks of heart disease and early death.D. Eating two servings a week of red meat or processed meat has no health risks.( )33. What d
