I am very much in the valley of despair on this manner, but for me individually (and food is indeed very individual), meat consumption leads to a much greater quality of life, with perceived health benefits.
I went fully carnivore and it lead to various health improvements. While I moved away from it due to my foodie tendencies, I currently do consume mainly animal products.
I plan on doing a vegan experiment as well, but I am just not getting convinced by the vegans I listen to, so I need to do more research. As it stands, I believe eating meat that grew naturally (e.g grass fed beef as compared factory farming) is more healthy and sustainable than veganism.
- aklemm 5y ago> I need to do more research Where will you publish the study?
- cinntaile 5y agoYou were insinuating there are negative health consequences to vegetarianism without providing any scientific evidence.
- oDot 5y agoI was saying that there could be negative effects, which is evidently true since I have experienced some. People should check what's good for them instead of blindly following information they got by osmosis. Especially with regards to health.
- cinntaile 5y agoYeah you said so but we still don't know what those effects are and how your food supposedly caused them. Maybe there are different explanations for why you feel better now. I do agree that this can be very individual, but that is also the danger when people talk about their experience. You won't notice the long time consequences either, by definition.
- oDot 5y agoThat's only a problem if I advise people will go in a certain direction (which is what the original comment did). Instead I suggested people think about their decisions.
