>>35152905

The energy and recources needed to create equivalent protein in a vegetarian diet (including dairy and eggs) is far less than that of meat. The beef industry is the #1 water polluter in the country.

The only reason to go vegetarian would be environmental (moral, if you want to call it that).
>>
>>35154141

This whole idea of "meant to eat meat" is pants on head retarded. Are you suggesting we were designed then? That a specific goal was in mind when we were created?

If we didn't start out as omnivores, we fuckin are now. Deal.

don't make it too complex savage. Just get informed. The human body is the body of an herbivore. If you want to eat meat you can but don't act like your body is designed to process meat and dairy. If it was than we wouldn't see the correlation between animal products and chronic disease.

For the people saying meat and dairy is shit...

No. I'm pretty fucking sure dairy is shit but meat is not. We have been eating meat for a long time during our evolution but we have not been eating dairy for a long time. Dairy is even proven to be allergenic and immunologic. Lots of anecdotes of this too. Go look it up if you don't believe me. Is meat allergenic or immunologic? Fuck no. Why would a certain food cause problems to people's body if we were meant to consume it?

Why would cigarettes damage people's bodies if we were meant to smoke?
Why would alcohol damage people's bodies if we were meant to drink it?
Why would dairy damage people's bodies if we were meant to drink it?
>>

>>
>>35154561
Meat causes chronic disease. You're misinformed about this subject.
>>
>>35154556
Yes it could. Indigestable meat fibers can mimic the role of cellulose in the diet, and you can get every multi vitamin from an animal product if you vary your sources enough. Is it ideal just because it's possible? No, but neither is veganism, which is the point I'm making. Possible doesn't mean ideal.

You understand that there is enough food for animals and humans right? In fact if we all ate vegan we would actually have food for all the starving people in the world because we wouldn't be giving most of our grain to enslaved animals. Plus its way more land consuming to farm meat than vegetables. Meat isn't sustainable. Watch cowspiracy for more info.

That matters, because there is no such thing as a peg which fits perfectly into a hole called "perfect human diet". We weren't designed for anything. From an evolutionary perspective, the only thing that matters is being able to produce as much viable offspring as possible. We were not "designed" to live as long as possible, even though we want to. And we use tons of unnatural medications and treatments to keep ourselves alive, even though we weren't designed for them. That doesn't make them wrong, but the point is that there is not some sort of single, perfect path in life. Something that's beneficial in the short term could theoretically be catastrophic in the long term. That doesn't make it right or wrong. It just is.

Even vegetarians don't all eat the same plant, and even fruitarians don't all eat the same fruit. We're not a car designed with some specific fuel in mind. Humans are capable of thriving on tons of varied diets, and we're different enough from person to person that the diet that one thrives on could be destructive to another.

Every single choice we make is made up of innumerable costs and benefits. It's not like when you choose your food you're selecting between premium, regular or unleaded fuel. It's not even remotely that simple.

Absolutely nothing of course.

Things aren't divided cleanly into "healthy" and "not-healthy." It's about pros and cons. Smoking can make you more alert, relax you, and suppresses appetite, but the smoke itself is ducking horrible for you and increases risk of lung cancer and COPD. Alcohol can be a good source of micronutrients but alcohol itself is technically a toxin and can cause problems in large or chronic amounts. Some foods can be healthy micronutrient-wise but have shit macros (Fruits) or be too calorie dense to eat on a cut (Nuts). Food is all about context.

Fruits have virtually the perfect macros for humans to thrive, live healthy, and have tons of energy.

Yeah, fiber's good, but the sugar is unnecessary unless you need energy for some activity. Most have fuck all protein and fat, so clearly it's not the "perfect" macros to thrive.
