Here’s something that meat-eaters may want to hear. A study published in Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition last year found that people who eat meat tend to have better psychological health than vegetarians. It found that vegetarians/vegans were at a greater risk of depression, anxiety, and self-harm, compared to meat-eaters. Urska Dobersek, an assistant professor at the University of Southern Indiana, and team reviewed 18 previous studies on the relationship between meat consumption and psychological health. Altogether the studies included 149,559 meat-consumers and 8,584 meat-abstainers from Europe, Asia, North America, and Oceania. Though they found “clear evidence” that meat-abstainers tended to have higher rates or risk of depression, anxiety, and self-harm compared to meat-eaters, they were not clear about the causal relationship between avoidance of meat and psychological health.

Consumption of too much meat, particularly red meat and processed meats that are high in fat, is associated with an increased risk of obesity, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, certain cancers and increased risk of death. A diet that has more plant-based foods and less meat is better for overall health. The Mediterranean diet, which is comprised of primarily plant-based foods with a low intake of meat and dairy foods, is considered to be one of the healthiest diets in the world. People that follow this diet limit their red meat consumption to only a few times per month. Among the many health benefits, this diet is known to help in preventing heart disease and managing diabetes.
