Honestly, if everyone just ate only red meat then the greenhouse gas emissions from the healthcare industry (which dwarf those of the beef industry) would fall by 80%.
This idea that RED MEAT IS BAD is one of the worst ideas to have ever taken hold in the mind of a society. This anti-meat perspective/attitude is just poisonous.
- spdif899 3y agoQuite the claim without a source - you're implying that almost the entirety of American healthcare costs are due to people eating vegetables, chicken, pork, fish?
- jononomo 3y agoNo, I'm okay with people eating eggs, chicken, fish, and any other animal-based food. Almost the entirety of the American healthcare costs are due to people eating ultra-processed food, which are rooted in grains and seed oils and sugar. Just cut out every plant-based calorie from your diet and THRIVE. Vegetables are not as bad as sugar, grain, and seed oils, but they're just full of fiber and anti-nutrients, so they're not beneficial to human health. Red meat also has more vitamins and micro-nutrients that vegetables, whose vitamins are in any case often not bioavailable. It is honestly almost impossible to put the beneficial effects of the carnivore diet into words -- it would sound miraculous. Just try it and see for yourself. (And note that it is the diet we evolved on).
