reports research from two preliminary studies indicates that “eating more protein from plant sources or dairy while reducing how much red meat you consume could help you live longer.” The first study revealed that “those who ate the most plant protein were 27% less likely to die of any cause and 29% less likely to die of coronary heart disease when compared to people who ate the least amount of plant protein.” The second study “found that replacing one serving per day of red or processed meat with foods such as nuts, whole grains or dairy was associated with up to a 47% lower risk of having coronary heart disease.” https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/05/health/plant-protein-meat-dairy-wellness/index.html
