I think there are contradicting studies on this subject. Some say high protein and low carb have actually reversed atherosclerosis but one study says it can cause it. I know the conventional or mainstream theory says that meat and fat are bad but does anyone know the latest research info on this matter or experienced it in real life
Atherosclerosis heightened in mice fed low-carb, high-protein diet

(here this study seems to indicate high carb was associated with atherosclerosis instead of protein)
Dietary fats, carbohydrate, and progression of coronary atherosclerosis in postmenopausal women

(this site claims women reversed atherosclerosis, topic in the middle of the page,HEART DISEASE CAN BE REVERSED)
