I disagree with you, there are far too many hands in the pot at WHO to take them with anything other than a grain of salt: https://www.cancertodaymag.org/Pages/Winter2018-2019/Carb-Connection.aspx https://www.cancertodaymag.org/Pages/Winter2018-2019/Carb-Co...

I've read that vegan propaganda so many times that I knew you'd post it before I posted my comment. Plants create carcinogens to defend themselves from being eaten. https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2013/10/01/228221063/when-edible-plants-turn-their-defenses-on-us https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2013/10/01/228221063/wh... Not to mention carcinogenic pesticides all over vegan food. https://www.businessinsider.com/kale-dirty-dozen-contaminated-pesticides-2019-3 https://www.businessinsider.com/kale-dirty-dozen-contaminate... Your post reminds me of another false vegan trope. Fish is bad for you since it is filled with cancer causing chemicals. Yet, the healthiest and longest living people on earth are fish consuming japanese and mediterraneans. A healthy balanced diet. Not the unhealthy extreme vegan or carnivore diet. But the natural human diet that all humans have always eaten - omnivore diet.

  Okinawan Japanese that had the long life span only ate 3% of their calories from animal meat (fish). And it certainly wasn't the shitty, polluted fish we get today. All blue zones - areas with people living the longest - have similar diets. So you can eat meat and be healthy, literally one meal per month. That's it.
