Analysis of mummified inuit peoples from the artic show that they were suffering atherosclerosis (the first stage of heart disease) or worse. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6N7Sk1ZRohU Other studies have shown that remains from wealthy and powerful ancient people (who ate more meat and exercised less) showed they were far less healthy than commoners (who ate little to no meat and exercised more). |
Incorrect.
The Inuit people for example had undergone a few minor biological "changes" compared to the rest of the general population.
For example, because they weren't consuming things like vegetables, they weren't consuming much in the way of carbohydrates, which means protein is broken down in the liver via Gluconeogenesis, which has resulted in those people having abnormally massive livers to compensate... The downside is when they change their diet to something that is Vegetable/Plant based, they can suffer a myriad of health issues as their bodies haven't undergone generations to adapt.
Now life expectancy for those people is 63 - 67 years for women and men, respectively. - But I am sure you are aware (As you don't look like someone who is a moron) that things like immunisation, hostpitals can substantually raise that life expectancy rate and can have absolutely NOTHING to do with diet... These people live in some of the most remote places in the world, they don't have the modern privelages we tend to enjoy when it comes to health.
Same issues arise with the Aboriginal people in Australia, even if an Aboriginal has a relatively conservative diet, they can still suffer from a ton of health issues even with vegetable-rich diets.
Their main sources of food was Nuts and extremely Lean meat... Which was backed up with a small amount of Grubs and Berries.
| scrapking said: There are no nutrients that we can get only from meat, that's commonly believed but is a complete falsehood. I think it's very dangerous for people to counsel others towards specific diet and lifestyle recommendations based on conventional wisdom, rather than scientific fact. You could actually be recommending they do things that harm them, as you have done here. What nutrients are you referring to? I'd love a citation. |
No. You have misconstrued what I have said entirely. I am stating everything is okay in moderation.

I don't care what someone does to someone else, that's not my circus, not my problem. :P
I'm not responsible for any of that.
But if it get's pushed onto me, I will push back.
| scrapking said: People have different starting levels of cholesterol. Someone that can eat eggs every day without a cholesterol problem likely just has a low starting value of cholesterol. Correlative studies on cholesterol so no relationship between diet and cholesterol only because they fail to take into account that people have different starting levels. However, studies that study people's cholesterol level before increasing their intake and afterward invariably show that eating cholesterol-laden foods increases cholesterol levels in the body. |
Correct. But when you start consuming an obscene amount of cholesterol, your starting amount of Cholesterol tends to be irrellevent.
With that said, I won't reply to the rest of your post, I haven't enough Coffee this morning, Some I agree with, some I don't.
