"Middle-age adults who regularly eat a double burger, fries, and a diet soda for lunch or dinner increase their risk of incident metabolic syndrome by 25% compared with those who limit red meat to two servings a week."Now for your surprise.

'We had expected to see a benefit because we have seen a beneficial relationship in other studies,' she said."It is all about Calories in, Calories out.
