You can lose a few pounds
As you probably know, red meat contains more calories than other types of meat, so if you rethink your diet a little bit, you can lose a few extra pounds.
“Most portions of meat are more than the actual protein requirement,” says Sally Warren, PhD, traditional naturopath at Metro Integrative Pharmacy. “A three-ounce serving of beef can be around 170 calories. But a portion of beans can be around 100 calories and tofu around 70 calories.”
Some recent studies have shown that people who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet are more likely to lose a few extra pounds and reach their ideal body weight. So, if you are struggling with weight loss, you should talk to a nutritionist and change your diet.
