04 Feb 2020 --- Eating two servings of red meat, processed meat or poultry – but not fish – per week is linked to a 3 to 7 percent higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and a 3 percent higher risk of all causes of death.

The study authors affirm their conclusions may have critical public health implications.
