“Yes, that why all the American Indians, who ate nothing but meat, died from heart disease.”
Do you want to rewrite this??? Freebie for you before embarrassing you with facts...kind of think maize, beans, squash, not to mention forage foods, etc.

No- I stand by what I said. Most were nomadic, with vegetable gardening, even foraging, making up a small percentage of the diet. Vegans they were not by any stretch of the imagination. They did not suffer from heart disease. That came later, after they started a carb based diet, which brought with it extremely high rates of diabetes, and heart disease, way beyond the norm. Do some of your own research and check out some info on the Papagoes of Arizona for a perfect example. Another people group who is exclusively vegan, the Dravidian's of southern India, also suffer from high rates of heart disease.
