I don't think he is healthy just because of eating meat. He is healthy because of a number of factors.
1. He ate good quality food, that includes both meat and vegetables that he grew for consumption.
2. Farming is hard work so he physically quite fit. In fact even at this advanced age he still rides bike around.
3. Portion control: He never eats more than he needs.
4. He is quite stoic and usually doesn't give shit in the face of adversity.
It's important to eat a lot of vegetables along with meat. I don't think eating anything in excess is good for health.
>> Also, keep in mind that animal protein is not necessarily meat, meat would be a subset of animal protein..
Yes, I understand what animal protein means. I also understand that you're possibly a vegetarian. I was a vegetarian for 13 years but I'd to start eating meat again for personal reasons. I think I feel a lot healthier with a meat based diet. Also, I didn't insinuate that vegetarianism is less healthy. I only reported by observation in my family circle. Most of the people who're eating a pure vegetarian diet have serious ailments. And most people who grew up eating meat are comparatively healthier.
Although, in the current times I don't think it matters much. Most of the food produced are full of toxic shit. And it could be the reason for their ailments not just meat or vegetarian diet. Just to clarify, my family is in India. The quality of food has gone down drastically in the recent years.
- Maursault 5y agoI would recommend you pay very close attention to how you feel in the first three hours after eating, say, a nice sized filet minion. One day it just hit me that meat always kicks my ass. I used to love going to Outback for the steak. Then it occurred to me, every single time I ate meat, digesting it would exhaust me. I'd usually lose consciousness within an hour after eating, and it is ordinary to feel sleepy after eating, but I'm talking about an overwhelming, irresistible tiredness that lasted hours. I'd be out for 2-3 hours, and always woken by GI discomfort. Without fail, meat ultimately puts me on the toilet. Once I realized the result was always the same, quitting meat was an easy decision, yet being a vegetarian is hard (because this society makes it hard, not only to be a vegetarian, this society makes it hard to find anything but crap to eat).
