Meat consumption

The EPIC-InterAct Study (InterActConsortium, Association between dietary meat consumption and incident type 2 diabetes: the EPIC-InterAct study, 2013) identified a higher risk of T2DM among individuals with high meat consumption, specifically red and processed meat.

After controlling and managing other risk factors for T2D (e.g. smoking, physical activity, alcohol intake), the association between meat consumption and incidence of T2D still remained statistically significant.

The Hong Kong dietary survey looked at dietary intake and type 2 diabetes in a Chinese population and found the following, a high consumption of fibre, whole grains, fruits and vegetables is associated with a lower risk of T2D which is confirmed in other studies too.
