| As an average consumer, you probably have a vague awareness of the nutritional value of your meats - fish being better than red meat, for example. The issue can be complicated, because all meats have pros and cons, research can come up with conflicting results, and studies can surprise us. For example, research suggests that in terms of cholesterol alone, eating white chicken meat is as bad for you as eating beef.
Still, there's a generally agreed upon hierarchy of nutritional value when it comes to meat, and small shifts in your diet might have greater effects than you realise. In a study of the Danish population, researchers found that Danes could gain more than 7000 years of healthy life annually if they ate the recommended quantity (340 grams or 12 ounces per week) of fish while replacing red and processed meats in their diet.
