Yes, he was a great scientist, but, he got the cholesterol bit wrong, and that ,unfortunately, is his black mark. But, I don't know how much his actions are directly responsible. Of the amount of fat in red meat, only about 2% of it is sat fat! Other than that, the list of nutrients is complete in red meat. The real problem here is the push to eliminate meat agriculture altogether, by misrepresenting stats about land use and water use. If most ruminants are grazed on land that is not usable for crops ,that alters the argument quite a bit! Maybe, we should use the crop land to raise more cattle? More bang for the buck! Many people couldn't afford it ,you say? If everyone is growing kale and broccoli, can the farmers make a living on that?
