| Aeolus451 said:No, humans are entirely omnivore. A plant only diet is unnatural to humans and will slowly kill someone or permantly cause damage to their bodies unless they take supplements. Our bodies require enough nutruits from meats/animals based products that we need a daily intake of some of it. [...]
Veganism and vegetarianism are unhealthy/unnatural lifestyles for human beings and because of that they require supplements to live like that. Vegans or vegetarians can prattle on all they want about how healthy their diet is but it's a complete utter lie. If someone wants to live either of those lifestyles, by all means have at it but don't try to spread misinformation about it to mislead people into thinking it's a healthy or a better lifestyle compared to living as a omnivore. |
You make bold citations, offer only a single citation (to Wikipedia no less) to a nutrient that *animals cannot make* and that factory farmed animals are routinely supplemented in. You additionally mention:
Vitamin B1, which is rich in the plant kingdom, and found in abundance in foods such as sunflower seeds, navy beans, black beans, barley, peas, lentils, oats, etc.
Vitamin D, which our bodies make from the sun (or is easily supplemented if you spend most of your time in your basement).
Your fundamental tenant that we need meat is a complete falsehood. Why is there no RDA (recommended daily amount) of meat then? Why does almost every government health body on the planet recognize that a plant-based diet can easily be nutritionally complete? Because you're spreading fear and falsehoods, without a single scientific citation, that's why. All the while saying it's the commonly scientifically accepted and well cited claims of others that are false.
Over the course of this thread I've provided dozens of citations. You provided a link to wikipedia, for something that bacteria (not animals) make. So I'll try to ask this politely... are you OK? Your message seems a bit manic, honestly.
