Who is Colin Campbell? Wasn’t this just recently debunked?
I’ve known dedicated vegetarians who are quite capable of making delicious meals while avoiding animal products entirely, but even they admit that it is very hard work and that getting the correct proteins, amino acids, etc. into their diet is a challenge in the absence of meat.
I’ve benefitted from greatly reducing carbs and favoring animal fat over vegetable oils. Everything in moderation. Anyone who absolutely insists that this or that diet is the only correct way to go for everybody is trying to sell something.
Are you trying to sell something?
And where do you get your B vitamins?
Plants are fine. Grains will kill you.
Plants are arguing with animals????? How rude of them
Look lets keep in simple..
There are herbivores, carnivores and omnivores..
What have humans be for most of thier history that man has been a “man”?
Hint..Your don’t need weapon to hunt and kill a plant, you don’t need fire to cook a plant, and you don’t need sharp stone knives to skin a plant to wear it as clothing..
Meat eating goes hand in hand with going from a grazing animal, to a weapon caring, fire making, tool using, clothing wearing, man..
It just works out that way
I remember back when the did not let plants debate.
Read “Death by Food Pyramid” by Denise Minger. The Food pyramid was set up by the USDA with grains taking up the largest part more because it was less costly and thus wouldn’t wreck the food stamp program. The food pyramid nutritional value didn’t concern the USDA in the least.
Cows eat plants, I eat cows!!
I am reading this article while eating some veggies next to my honey glazed chicken.
If I followed a diet like that, I’d be overweight, tired all the time and unable to do the work I do-that is way too many carbs for me, and not nearly enough protein.
Like most people brought up in the country, I come from a family that gets food from a home garden, free range chickens and grass fed livestock. Sugar and processed grain was considered unhealthy and not on the menu except for maybe holidays, and potatoes don’t grow well here-but there was plenty of fresh corn and winter squash, and brown rice from the grocery store for carbs that have not had their nutrients removed by processing.
Being overweight is rare in my family-it doesn’t happen with family members who don’t eat processed junk and don’t stop working.
I live in the country and still eat that way-no processed food, very few carbs, just grass fed meat, fresh eggs, home grown veggies and some fresh fruit, cheese and yogurt-locally produced, if I can get it. I bake whole grain bread to barter in the winter, and keep a small amount to eat-the only store-bought grain product I eat is an Atkins, special K or granola bar if I’m hiking at lunchtime.
I’m over 60, I weigh what I did at 17, 108-110, and I’m 5’9”. I have a physical job, and I go hiking in the woods here several times a week. I do not use drugs of any kind to this day, and will not do so-living into the 90’s to 100 is not uncommon in the family, so apparently some of us are better off without that stuff.
One size does not fit all-if what you are doing works for you, that is great-but we are not all the same.
