Here is the [study] (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S240545772400038X) (N=1.8 million)
Conclusions
This MR study demonstrated no significant causal relationships between red/processed meat intake and the risk of the four CVD outcomes examined. Further investigation is warranted to confirm these findings.

Here is an older study (N=29 682) that claimed to have found correlation between redmeat and heart diseases.
Red meat is a superfood that is loaded with everything a human needs to survive, same with eggs and real milk.
I've been eating a lot of meat, eggs, and saturated fats and my physical and mental health has been steadily improving and I'm down to 186 pounds at 5'11" tall. I look and feel better at 35 than I did at 25.
I still firmly believe, after spending time with keto and seeing the effects on people, that saturated fats really are the good fats.
If they weren't, you would never see people actively improve their cholesterol levels by consuming more eggs, more milk, more butter, more bacon even.
Yet we do, constantly on keto.
It makes perfect sense once you examine things from the perspective of survival. If you were out in the wilderness and needed food you would be going for something that's high in calories, nutrient dense, and loaded with fat and protein...aka a deer or whatever else you could bring down.
If red meat is off the menu then eggs and fatty fish can fill the gap. Milk is hit or miss depending on the individual and the quality of the milk. I have whole milk in my coffee and occasionally down a glass and it doesn't bother my stomach, but other folks look at a jug of milk and end up sick.
I've been going with the heavy whipping cream in my coffee lately. Delicious! I like adding butter to my coffee, but it doesn't stir in easily.
I've been putting a slab of Kerrygold butter in mine lately.
Was doing intermittent fasting and eating whatever I wanted. Lost a lot of weight and then hit a plateau where I wasn't gaining or losing.
To shake things up, I'm now doing keto, but really almost 99% carnivore. Made the switch this week.
Only thing I've eaten this week that isn't eggs, cheese, or meat was a side of broccoli and a cup of tortilla soup that came with my 16 oz. ribeye at a restaurant.
Lost an additional 5 lbs. already after cutting all processed carbs and sugars out of my diet and I'm completely full for hours after eating.
Yesterday, I ate 2 hamburger patties, a 3 egg omelet with some white cheddar and a copious amount of butter for lunch, and a piece of fish for dinner, which came out to around 1500 calories.
Once I hit my target weight, I will probably have to start eating about 1800-2000 calories to maintain.
Just make sure it isn't ultra pasteurized.
I have a weird relationship with milk, that relationship also extended to eggs.
Before I went on keto the first time, I was lactose intolerant and eggs caused my stomach problems to boot.
However, after literally just a week on steak and eggs, my stomach became stronger and for years afterwards, even after I stopped keto, milk didn't bother me.
Only now, after I haven't been able to spend much time focusing on personal health due to hectic life reasons, my stomach has become weaker to it.
There are some conclusions I could draw from that about lactose intolerance and what causes it.
How can someone control their cholesterol? I eat healthy most of the time (by most i mean 90 to 95%). I dont eat deep fried, i dont eat out, junk food is almost non existant but because my wife buys it i steal 1 or 2 chips here and there. Yet i still have high cholesterol
What's your cholesterol level? Mine is 220 mg/dL, which is absolutely normal, despite what [they] would have you think! Your liver regulates the level according as what your body needs. Also, it's a statistically proven fact that people with "high" cholesterol, on average, live longer than those with slightly low levels!
I'm honestly not sure. I know inflammation can cause cholesterol levels to rise, so maybe try an anti-inflammatory diet.
To my knowledge there isn't a link between dietary cholesterol and blood cholesterol levels. There's a book called the cholesterol con by Anthony Colpo that covers the subject well.
Cholesterol problems seem to arise from many things, from weight to stress to dietary to some extent.
Some people believe (as another poster said) that dietary cholesterol has no relevance to your levels, but I think that is observably not the case because people have actively improved cholesterol levels simply by revising their diet, thereby tying it in at least some fashion.
It's just that, you should eat things that are high in good cholesterol, rather than bad cholesterol. Things that encourage high HDL (such as eggs) is better than things that encourage high LDL, which from what I understand, seed oils can cause.
Cholesterol is a sign of a problem in the body that it's trying to fix, usually some chronic inflammation. Attacking cholesterol directly is like shooting the firefighters trying to put out the fire.
It is only because of deliberate medical disinformation that you even believe you need to control your cholesterol.
Drugs for lowering it are fruitless, as the body just makes more cholesterol. Besides, cholesterol is a GOOD thing. The body ingeniously uses cholesterol to plug holes stabbed in the arterial endothelial lining by the spiky projections on molecules of sugar and insulin.
Thinking cholesterol is the bad guy because it appears in patches inside blood vessels is like thinking firemen must be arsonists because firemen are almost always seen at fires.
Instead, stop consuming spiky carbohydrate molecules, and there will be far fewer spiky molecules of that, and of insulin released into the bloodstream by Uncle Pancreas.
Hell, just think about what happens when we put on body fat.
What KIND of fat is that?
SATURATED fat.
Our bodies CREATE saturated fat from excess carbohydrates to store for future energy.
That is WHY it is there.
Clearly, saturated fat CANNOT be harmful to us.
Yet which is the one that gets demonized in modern nutritional advice? We're told to eat mostly grains that ruin our stomachs, cause systemic inflammation, malnutrition, and other nasty things while being told to shun healthy fats and meat.
They want us sick, enslaved, and dead so just do the opposite of what they suggested lol.
I'm slim myself and I love telling people "The more fat I eat, the thinner I get" of course it's utterly demoralising that they don't believe it. The other prong of this is eliminating sugars - replace with fats, preferably saturated.
Butter Will Make Your Pants Fall Off

Saturated animal fat FTW
Eskimos eat almost nothing but fat, and some protein...and they have no dental caries, depression, heart disease, arthritis, etc.
There are still interviews of Vilhjalmur Stefansson on YT.
Fascinating stuff about what life was like with the Eskimos.
I thought it was interesting that walking across the icebergs was so easy. Just wait for the next one to float to the one you are on, and step across. Easy to see how people could have migrated across, even without any "land bridge."
Was that the Danish guy who lived six months on rotten fish, eating nothing but that with Eskimos, and ended up preferring it greatly over fresh fish? Crazy stuff
