Sure, do whatever is right for you. My research into the meat industry indicated that I was actually consuming a lot of stuff along with the meat that just isn't good for you. Sure you can go fully organic, free-range etc, but the meat we eat today is nothing like when we were hunter-gatherers. In those times we ate wild animals that lived free and healthy. As far as I can tell, it is impossible to get that level quality of meat at your local supermarket.
- newnewpdro 7y agoElsewhere you said you occasionally eat fish for the omega fatty acids, what kind of fish? There's been a number of reports describing farmed fish as some of the most toxic food sources on the planet. It's definitely changed my attitude towards defaulting to a fish option at restaurants where its provenance is unknown or at best ambiguous. My goto has become canned wild sardines in water, consumed similarly for omegas in an otherwise mostly plant-based paleo-like diet.
- icu 7y agoMy prio list is as follows: Salmon > mackerel > sardines > herring > trout. I love salmon, but any of the above will do. I also switch it up for variety. Honourable mention is shrimp, which only has 1/4 the Omega of salmon, but is usually the easy option at BBQs (and avoids the annoying conversations about how not eating meat isn't manly). I make sure I go for wild fish, and also buy it fresh (never in packaging unless I'm absolutely desperate).
