红肉和加工肉（RPM）的摄入量在全球范围内差异很大。在一些高收入国家（HIC），过去十年中RPM消费总体下降或稳定，而新兴经济体的消费随着收入的增加和快速城市化而继续增加。RPM的生产和消费已成为特别是牲畜对环境影响的主要问题，但也因为RPM的高消费与饮食相关的非传染性疾病之间的关联。因此，重要的是要确定RPM消费的社会经济和人口驱动因素。本文探讨了RPM的消费如何随年龄、性别、社会经济地位和不同的全球背景而变化。RPM消费有一些关键的社会经济和人口模式。男子往往更经常和更多地消费RPM，有证据表明HIC存在社会梯度，社会经济地位较低的群体消费RPM更经常和更多。随着年龄增长的消费模式不那么明确。很明显，高收入国家的消费者仍然在消费高水平的RPM，尽管一些社会经济和人口群体的下降是令人鼓舞的，并表明可以制定战略，以吸引那些被确定为高RPM消费者的消费者。在低收入和中等收入国家，RPM消费正在上升，特别是在中国和巴西以及城市地区。低收入和中等收入国家需要找到鼓励人们保持传统健康饮食模式的方法，这将带来健康、环境和经济的共同效益。
Red and processed meat (RPM) intake varies widely globally. In some high-income countries (HIC) the last decade has witnessed an overall decline or stabilisation in the consumption of RPM, in contrast to emerging economies where its consumption continues to increase with rising income and rapid urbanisation. The production and consumption of RPM have become major concerns regarding the environmental impacts of livestock in particular, but also because of associations between high RPM consumption and diet-related non-communicable disease. Therefore, it is important to identify socioeconomic and demographic drivers of the consumption of RPM. This paper explores how consumption of RPM differs with age, gender, socioeconomic status and in different global contexts. There are some key socioeconomic and demographic patterns in RPM consumption. Men tend to consume RPM more often and in higher quantities, and there is evidence of a social gradient in HIC, with lower socioeconomic groups consuming RPM more often and in larger quantities. Patterns for consumption with age are less clear cut. It is apparent that consumers in HIC are still consuming high levels of RPM, although the downward shifts in some socioeconomic and demographic groups is encouraging and suggests that strategies could be developed to engage those consumers identified as high RPM consumers. In low- and middle-income countries, RPM consumption is rising, especially in China and Brazil, and in urban areas. Ways of encouraging populations to maintain their traditional healthy eating patterns need to be found in low- and middle-income countries, which will have health, environmental and economic co-benefits.
