Boy, I am sure convinced of this. When we were vegetarians we were always sick; colds, flu and just general yuck. We quit 4 years ago, and have had very very few colds or any illnesses since. I am convinced that we think better,too. Now when I'm around my family members who are still vegetarians,I notice that they are airheads in addition to being sick a lot!! Also I think too many starches makes people passive.

You know, I think I read somewhere that animal protein is necessary for the brain. Seriously!

When my kids were young, Uriah and I weren't too well off. But the money we had we chose to spend on good eating, rather than luxurious housing or new cars. I always had plenty of meats and dairy products in the kids' diets. Between the three of them I think we might have had two ear infections and a few minor colds in the entire course of their growing up. Seeing a doctor was a novelty to them. It's the same way with just the two of us now. I haven't had a cold in eighteen months; Uriah hasn't had one since heaven knows when. I attribute it largely to the diet. Perhaps it's not that excess protein does excess good, but simply that insufficient protein causes positive harm.
