Here’s a neat, tidy summary of how beef, lamb, and other types of red meat affects fertility from Women’s Health magazine: “The number of times your infertility risk can rise if you’re a hardcore carnivore, a recent study in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology finds. Subjects who ate the most animal protein produced more insulin and had higher levels of the hormone IGF-1, both linked to infertility. Baby-minded? Consider reducing red meat and poultry to one serving daily or swap them with eggs, beans, or nuts.” Although, I must confess that I crave big juicy hamburgers at certain times of the month! But, I think meat in moderation isn't as harmful as eating meat more than 2-3 times a week. Thanks for bringing this up, Leng. Laurie Yes, Leng, I have heard of this!
