Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Some high-protein diets allow red meats, processed meats and other foods high in saturated fat. These foods may increase your risk of heart disease. And they can increase your low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, the “bad” cholesterol.

Detailed explanation-2: -Also a high protein diet that contains lots of red meat and higher amounts of saturated fat might lead to a higher risk of heart disease and colon cancer, while another high protein diet rich in plant-based proteins may not carry similar risks.

Detailed explanation-3: -Protein is also a source of energy and is vital to your heart. Consuming healthy proteins from plant and animal sources as part of a balanced diet can help lower your risk of heart disease.

Detailed explanation-4: -Studies suggest that eating proteins like fish, beans, poultry, nuts and low-fat dairy, rather than high-fat meats, helps prevent heart disease.

Detailed explanation-5: -Further, the new research shows that high-protein diets spur unstable plaque-the kind most prone to rupturing and causing blocked arteries. More plaque buildup in the arteries, particularly if it’s unstable, increases the risk of heart attack.
