That being said the amount of protein one actually "needs" per day is pretty low compared to what many eat as well (although you still do need calories to come from some place).

For current food use, the significant relative risks are 2.3 for beef, 2.7 for lamb, and 2.1 for a combined group of highly saturated fat foods. This strongly suggests that the lactoovo-vegetarian diet may protect against colon cancer. " Yet the author of this article stated that: "In 1975, Rowland Philips compared Seventh-Day Adventists physicians, who do not eat meat, with non-Seventh Day Adventist physicians, and found that the vegetarian doctors had higher rates of gastrointestinal and colon-rectal cancer deaths." IN OTHER WORDS, HE CLAIMS THE VERY OPPOSITE OF WHAT THE STUDY ACTUALLY SHOWED !?!?!? In summary, there are lots of variable involved, but lots of evidence that red and processed meats increase the risk for colon cancer. That said, I think that this uses poor logic, explicitly wrong claims (e.g. the Phillips study), and an overall biased agenda to try and prove otherwise. I'm not sure what his agenda is for doing so, but I fear that he may be giving some people a false sense of security with their red-meat-rich-diets. I eat a decent amount of red meat so would love to believe him, but I see no reason to do so.

Too many studies fail to take into account all of the variables, instead focusing on the author's pet ideas. Cheers Scott Exactly!
