15Processed or Red Meat
High consumption of processed or red meat is associated with an increased risk of insulin resistance and fatty liver disease, especially non-alcoholic type. Some common foods like deli meats, pork, and beef are typically high in saturated fats that can lead to these health issues. Also, unhealthy cooking methods like broiling, grilling, or frying can produce a great amount of HCAs, a compound that can worsen the disease. Good alternatives include lean meats, oily fish, and plant-based protein such as tempeh or tofu. [15]
