That sensationalist headline is entirely false and doesn't represent the study's findings. The study is extremely suspect as well if you read it.
And it also says that consuming meat and dairy was good for seniors, so it doesn't support veganism or vegetarianism even if you accept the study.
-
That's not a fact at all. There are reasons to choose a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle but health isn't one of them.
-
Seul, time has already told. We have a lot of clinical evidence that eating things like humanely raised, grassfed cattle and wild caught salmon is good for you. I have read extensively on this research and know what I'm talking about.
There's nothing wrong with being vegatarian or vegan, but there is something wrong with making unsupported claims and using junk science to support your lifestyle.
There's also something wrong with the way Adam chooses to proselytize and judge others who don't share his values.
-
The last I'll say on the topic is that I don't believe that's true. There's a lot of epidemiological evidence that animal proteins/fats/cholesterol play an important role in the health of our nervous system among others. People with low serum cholesterol, for example, have been shown to have less intelligence as they age, physical shrinkage of the brain, and are more susceptible to diseases like dementia and Parkinson's.
From a health perspective inflammatory foods are the ones to be avoided.
From an ethical perspective, I can respect, but disagree, with vegetarians and vegans. And I can do so with civility.
-
Obviously civil disagreement isn't something you're capable of. Disappointing. Nice to animals but haven't figured the human thing out eh?

We have very few rules around here, of which the primary one is to be polite. I think we'll lock this thread for a bit until people can remember how to do that.
