The study suggests that TVA could be used as a dietary supplement to help various T cell-based cancer treatments, although Chen points out that it is important to determine the optimized amount of the nutrient itself, not the food source. There is a growing body of evidence about the detrimental health effects of consuming too much red meat and dairy, so this study shouldn’t be taken as an excuse to eat more cheeseburgers and pizza; rather, it indicates that nutrient supplements such as TVA could be used to promote T cell activity.

It's an interesting and weirdly loaded angle to suggest that the only red meat foods are unhealthy (by picking unhealthy foods as examples). Consider this alternative phrasing:
> this study shouldn’t be taken as an excuse to eat more venison, cabbage, and mash.
Is it really the best thing to be finding the correct soup of isolated nutrients to take in a multi-pill, as opposed to admitting that perhaps it can be healthy to include some red meat sources in your diet? Cutting out red meat is clearly not some panacea.
