Dude thanks for posting and its good to find another who cares  .
I will be cutting out meat etc from what i eat too. i cant wait to see how much better i feel  . maybe i should document it? like i eat meat everyday morning, night you name it (Well i did before watching this video and doing some reading). Im just happy i now know i dont even need it in the first place and the only thing im doing by eating it is feeding my self a bunch of shit pretty much that has other poor animals paying for me to do that.
