American farmed meat is not the same as wild meat, nor what is eaten in Mongolia, by the Masai or what early humans ate. One difference is that the fat levels are much higher.
Grass fed will be better than grain finished for health.
observational studies show that red meat is associated with a greater risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer and death
recently, this was traced to (at least) levels of L-carnitine which interacts with bacteria in the body - which is a good search term for you
The real question is whether eating red meat will be worse for you than worrying about eating it...
I don't worry about it, and eat it once or twice a week (45 day aged NY steak last night).
If you feel you are eating it too often, just give some away.
