There are NO health problems. How do you explain my grandmother who lives on her own and functions very well at 101 years old. She eats meat everyday. Her husband my grandfather also a meat eater died at 96 also very healthy, but had aspestosis.
I eat meat and have no health issues.
Show me evidence of one human culture that thrived without meat? You obviously do not believe in evolution. Because man has evolved eating meat. That is a fact.
That is a huge statement to make & is completely inaccurate.
What do you mean there are no health problems?
What about the leading causes of deaths these days?
Things like cancer & heart disease?
I am not saying meat & dairy are the sole cause of these diseases but they certainly make their fair contribution.
& I didnt say all ppl that consume animal products die young or wont reach a certain age.
I stopped eating meat when I found out it was the actual animal, I think I was about 6-7 at the time. I stopped eating eggs quite awhile ago, and I'm still working on the dairy. I don't drink/use milk when I have the option, though I'm having trouble finding an alternative(soy milk make me feel sick, especially in coffee:shock
and I don't eat a lot of cheese like chunks of it, but I still feel the need to add it to things(pasta, pizza) but I try to avoid it. I haven't had any yoghurt for awhile either. But there is one dairy containing product I could never give up-ICE CREAM and cheese cake...
vegan guys? What do you do when it comes to eggs and milk that you can't really avoid like bread and stuff? Maybe ad cake to that aswell:lol:
If theres anything I miss it twiggy stick!!!
The Vegan side of things is all still new to me Princessparrot but I would definitely recommend checking out this website:
adaptt.org
I cant stand soymilk either, I have found almond milk is not too bad in smoothies etc but tastes like rubbish on cereal & in tea etc.
Have you tried Coconut milk? it is delicious! & much nicer than normal milk or the alternatives.
I certainly recommend it!
Recent studies have show that meat consumption causes less animal cruelty than the alternative equivalent of grain production. Crop rotation, burning off, water diversion, deforestationand other processes used in grain production do more damage and damage more animals/ecosystems than the admittedly immoral practices meat industries. If we replied totally on grain production for food we would require far more of the space to appropiated for food production.
Admittedly animal cruelty in modern meat practice is poor and should be improved. But the vegetarian alternative is no better.
Do you have links for these studies? I am interested but very skeptical.
Whilst those links have no actually recognised studies. The CSIRO is a recognised organisation.
Lean meat - consumption and production
Lean red meat is not only a good source of protein and energy, but also has benefits in avoiding heart disease.
The facts on eating red meat | CSIRO
I am curious which ones you have watched?
There are plenty of studies available.
& there are many sources of protein and energy that are not detrimental to your health.
You have to realise that in the history of man. There has never been a vegan society. We have evolved as hunters and gatherers. That means we are omnivores.
Good luck feeding your pythons and geckos on fruit, veg and grains. You can't change they way animals have evolved and that includes humans.
Meat is healthy as shown by CSIRO. It should be taken in moderation as with all natural foods.
The fact we have done it for so long doesnt make it any better for us.
Times are changing & more people are becoming aware.
I didnt say that I was going to try to convert my reptiles or other pets to an unnatural diet,
They are Omnivores & Carnivores - obviously I will feed my pets what ever is required of their diet for them to be healthy.
