(31,261 posts)I have never been the type to eat a 1 pound steak. But even six ounces of meat is likely too much for most people. I now occasionally eat a lean beef burger once every few weeks, after staying away from the commercial stuff for years. I limit the size of the pattie to four ounces and eat vegetables on the burger for flavor, no cheese. The result? My bowel movements are regular and soft. My body clears the burger in around 3-4 hours, meaning that if I eat it at 7pm, my stomach is clear by 11pm. My body balance is better, energy better, weight better, strength better, endurance better. My experience is just what I noticed, it doesn't speak for other people, but my experience is why I have become an advocate of limiting meat consumption and figuring out what my body needs.
My body does not like a large amount of animal fat, it does not even like a large amount of plant based oil. Knowing that allows me to tune in a diet that works for me.
