Avoid red meat” shouldn’t be nutritional advice for Nigerians.
You’re saying avoid meat to people who see meat as a reward—
Not as food. Not as nourishment. But as luxury.
You’re saying cut back on eggs to a mother managing one cube of meat in two days for an entire family.
Avoid what exactly?
The average Nigerian isn’t suffering from meat overload.
They’re suffering from nutrient deficiency—
From relying on ultra-processed carbs, inflammatory seed oils, and empty calories.
Meat isn’t the problem.
Eggs aren’t the problem.
Lack of access to real, nutrient-dense food is.
You want to help people?
Don’t demonize their only source of protein.
Educate them on how to stretch it wisely.
Teach them to pair it with vegetables, good fats, and water.
Show them how to cook with intention, not just convenience.
Because the truth is—
We don’t need less meat.
We need less poison in plastic wrappers.
“Avoid red meat” is lazy advice.
“Eat wisely, nourish deeply, unlearn fear”—now that’s healing.
