The woo part in the GP’s comment seems to be a hidden implication that animal meat is not processed or hasn’t had its nutrition destroyed or not been genetically modified or not been fed “pills that people are skeptical of”. There’s almost nothing “natural” about animal meat that’s sold in stores. And hence the conclusion that some disorders would increase solely because of this is false.
The technical term for your description of the concentration of certain things increasing up the food chain is “biomagnification”. [1]
