vegans and health.........

[Accord R33]

i HATE vegans. "i dont want to hurt the cute little animals, blah blah blah" Havnt they ever heard of the food chain? just becuase we as humans happen to be at the top of it doesnt make us a bad species.

do you think less of a tiger or lion when he visoucly kills a helpless gazzel? probably not. why are we any different?

Yeah.. i think quite a few of those people.. or at least the ones that are vegans... but eat this and that, just do it for attention. I have known a few like that, and thats all they do it for.

And since we are not cows or horses, we cant be as healthy as we could just by eating grass. but hey.. if they wanna be immature.. let them.

true, its not that i dislike them as people, i just cant stand when they try and force their diet on others, or think less of people who eat meat.

its the same way i feel about religion

My Grandfather and Grandmother both passed away, having never and I mean never
eaten meat their whole entire life !!!

They were both as healthy as anyone their age(s) and could count on one hand just how many times
either one of them was ever sick .. and still have a few fingers to count with ..

My Grandfather lived to be well near a hundred, while my Tutu lived into her mid 90's ...
They grew alot of what they ate .. alot ..
My Granfather was a pretty good size dude .. almost 6 foot, and very strong most of his life.
He did everything that there was to do .. mostly by himself .. constantly had a bag of fresh
washed grapes in one hand as well. Never drank a soda, and sugar was out!

I grew up a very strict vegan, but after my first taste of meat, fish, and chicken ... well
Lets just say .. the *Hawaiian* came out, and I learned all I could .. about marinade's ..

My Friend went vegan for about 4 months and her finger nails started deteriorating. I belive if they are uncareful it could be dangerous. As for them being more healthy? I don't think they are, there is no meat in candy bars or chips.

Also, If they won't drink cows milk because they think it is robbing the young of their milk, then 1. The cows would die if they were not milked, and 2. They should no eat carrots becasue then the rabbits would have no food.

those poor horses and gorillas with their vegan diets. they're so scrawny and unhealthy, with no muscle mass.


most people that are vegan simply eat the wrong foods, and alot probably have eating disorders, too. that doesn't mean that a proper vegan diet is unhealthy.

I used to have a friend who was vegan. Yes he looked unhealthy, pale and had clammy hands sometimes, I definately agree that you need meat to get those irreplacable proteins. And I hate those people who say "oh humans were never meant to eat meat" and all this evolution bullshit, well were eating meat so thats evolution.
