[QUOTE="Nelson Vergel, post: 246591, member: 3"] Red meat consumption has been linked to a potential increase in [B]ferritin blood levels[/B], which can lead to adverse health outcomes such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) [[URL='https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0002916522027538']2[/URL]][[URL='https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29381787/']5[/URL]]. Ferritin is a protein that stores iron, and its levels can serve as an indicator of iron overload in the body. A study conducted on the EPIC-Heidelberg cohort found that red meat consumption was associated with increased plasma ferritin levels, which in turn was associated with an increased risk of CVD [[URL='https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0002916522027538']2[/URL]]. Similarly, another study suggested that the adverse cardiometabolic effects of red meat consumption could be mediated by increased iron load due to the heme iron found in red meat [[URL='https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29381787/']5[/URL]]. It is important to note that red meat contains important nutrients such as protein, vitamin B-12, and iron [[URL='https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/326156']3[/URL]], and is an established source of dietary protein and essential nutrients such as iron, zinc, and vitamin B12 [[URL='https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20374748/']4[/URL]]. However, excessive consumption of red meat has been associated with an increased risk of CVD, which can be partly attributed to its effect on ferritin levels in the blood. In conclusion, while red meat is a source of important nutrients, excessive consumption may lead to increased ferritin blood levels and an increased risk of CVD. It is recommended to limit red meat intake and to consume a balanced diet to promote overall health and well-being.
