Not expecting you to know this but it comes up when I talk about this stuff with my wife. She and many say that lunch / deli meat is not something we should be eating very often or really any processed meat. I wonder if all deli meat is not created equal. I wonder if it depends is a better perspective. Or maybe all of it is really harmful to your health. Do you have info about that?

The info I have comes from Dr. Ken Berry. He has a video on this very topic. Basically - do you have to eat the very expensive, boutique, grass-fed, grass-finished meats in order to get benefit.

And the answer, he says, is NO, absolutely not. You can eat the cheaper stuff, like hot dogs and bologna, if that's all you can afford, and will still get similar or the same benefits.

I really like Ken Berry. There's a lot of carnivores pushing the really expensive organic meats as superior. Ken Berry is explicitly not doing that, he's telling people that aren't necessarily wealthy how they can eat meat more cheaply.

Thanks.

What about a Dexa Scan?

That's not a blood test, it's a bone density test. It wasn't part of my work up, and right now I'm not particularly concerned about bone density.
