@pfowler20 you know that your food-animals are just injected with B-12, right? Our soil is so depleted, and most animals raised for food are not eating grass ANYWAY, so they are given B12. So, it’s better to just take a supplement if you’re concerned with B12.
Wow this is very encouraging. I wish that other woman would have stuck with it so she could have come out all thin and stuff. too bad. Who won?
Hey, check out Brad’s Raw Chips. The chips are made using organic vegetables grown by local farmers in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Blended with raw flax seeds, buckwheat groats, and spices. They are truly the healthiest chip in the world. Check out my channel for more news and information!
@dddux I don’t think I’ve ever heard it put better. Cheers back to ya!
@pookiroo Are you blind? They lost A TON of weight. Its amazing.
Hey there,
Im a personal trainer, nutrition and health researcher & experimentalists.
People are educated in the myths of so called health and nutrition and unfortunately there health suffers due to this. We are exposing the protein & supplementation myths & scams so people can achieve great health.
We believe great health is a choice & we are helping bring forth the revolution of SELF care so people can educate themselves & have great health. I wish you well on your quest. Peace, Paul.
Raw food Kitchen! are the best.
Awesome!!!
I don’t think they look that great…
We may be omnivores, we may be carnivores, we may be rat eaters for all I care… All I know is that I am as healthy as I can be, I look fabulous and slim, my skin looks impeccable, my muscles are hard and I have enough energy for the two of me. Depression also gone. I think these facts speak more than enough for themselves? You want discussion? This ends the discussion. Eat your meat and live your normal, short and unhealthy life. Nobody forces you to eat veggies and fruits. Cheers! :)))
why are those people look so shocked that she lost so much weight? She ate fruits and veggies, that’s gonna make you healthier and the weight is going to drop off automatically, i don’t believe back in the bible days people ate as much meat as we do now, probably very little. i think they mostly ate fruits and veggies. so many diets pills and drinks, and powders and books and so on. and all we need is fruits and veggies., i think we are being conned, lol
@MichaelnChristine
I do know from the reading that I have done the human digestive system for the most part has not adapted to eating animal protein, due to the makeup of pretty much all humans. If one is to eat meat, one must eat it close to raw and by itself not with any other type of protein (ie. plant protein) nor with starches as the pancreas works on one substance at a time not both at the same time.
@lorettab77 I notice you have no response to the use of animal products in your farmed organic produce. How are you less culpable and more holy then those of us who ate the meat that provided you with the carrot? I agree with the morality of veganism, not the biology. You have a pancreas that produces meat digesting enzymes but not enzymes for breaking down cellulose, the major component of plant matter. Why? Adaptation to eating meat. It’s a fact, and I don’t work for anyone but me.
@Treklady Firstly you don’t have canines, you have cuspids. Secondly they aren’t carnivores teeth, they are omnivores teeth. It isn’t a 0 or 100 proposition. A lot of animals eat a blend of things.
@cucumber202, i have seen a documentary where they showed how some animals and humans eat a particular fly that is high in protein, higher, supposedly than any other known meat. The fly may they were eating may be the air borne equivalent of Krill, which whales eat.
However, it may be that longevity will come from more advances sources of nutrition. And that in modern society, a big brain can be achieved from a plant based source, if the person is able to get necessary nutrition to support it, and having the time to train and enhance it’s power, with knowledge and mental skills exercise.
The comment “it was because we became hunters that we were able to develop a large brain” can be a bit misleading. It has to do with the amount of time hunting may take over the time it could take to find equivalent energy/protein/minerals/nutrients from non animal sources. And the variation in that is different per region and season.
My canine teeth are not like that of any other carnivore I know. Take my dog for example. Her canines are way sharper then mine. Meaning her teeth were actually meant for ripping into flesh, ours are not. Even if you look at the rest of any carnivores teeth, they are all sharper than ours. We are definitely flat toothed. More for grinding then ripping.
@elegiacsolitude What are your next ten words? I don’t feel like any of us should be against meat, organic farming or any of it. We should be looking for whats better and supporting that. Organic is 1000x better then factory farms and corn/soy subsides, better then GMO. Buy organic unless you find better then organic and then buy that. I am against Monsanto…other then that I am groping for a better answer. Like the rest of the world I suppose.
That’s why I’m against organic. I am 100% against animal farming, and the growing of organic food directly supports animal farming.
My family’ve been farmers up until recently. You can buy big bags of bone/blood at any farm or garden supply store. They measure manure per acre by the ton. For salad that is usually chicken/turkey or in coastal zones composted fish. I feel for Veg*ns, I just find it insulting to be told I am unnatural for eating meat since we have no indication we ever did anything else. But we evolve, if vegan really meant less suffering I’d be there. It doesn’t, it just is easier to hide it from yourself.
bone and blood meal? In soil? Where did you get this info? I’d like to read it.
Based on what? Vegan is great, its a perfectly fine option. It is a moral distinction some choose to make but it is not based on our biology. However, let’s be fair, even as a moralistic choice its lacking. For instance it impossible in most of the US and Canada to be a raw food vegan without importing food from south america and china, hardly eating locally. Also all of the manures used on a large organic farm require the meat industry. Bone and blood meal? Soil additives in organic. etc…
The American diet is truly SAD (standard American diet), and nope we are not meant to be omnivorous.
You want to go vegan more power to you. But meat doesn’t have to mean commercial meat. Our digestive track is acidic, we do not have a rumen. Evolutionary biologists, who are not part of a conspiracy, have shown that it was because we became hunters that we were able to develop a large brain. You have canines. The shape of adult molars is not similar to cows, they are not grinders they are breakers to get to bone marrow. Ethically vegans maybe right, however biologically we are omnivores.
