If meat were really so obviously bad for you, then Inuit should be keeling over from atherosclerosis by their 30s or so. They don't.

(If you're unaware, the Inuit diet is very heavily meat-based; there just simply isn't a lot of opportunities for plants in the High Arctic. They're getting sufficient vitamin C from meat, which is actually moderately difficult!)
