No meat from animals, directly or indirectly, still being animal flesh, is so good for us. If that is all you have, it can keep you from starving. But there are better things that will not contribute cholesterol and lead to clogging up arteries, or any future cancers. Just eating the healthy things for food that are from plants can be so good without such problems to health like those. And I would not fall for that promotion of lab meat that animals are not facing any harm that way. Cultures for it do not go on lasting anyway, fresh sources will continually be needed for any lab meat. Where would they get the animals from? There will be a supply of them kept, still. It would be less harm, maybe, but not ridding harm to animals. Reasons to really be vegan don’t go away. This excerpt is from text I copied by hand from Dr. Matthew Lederman in the Forks Over Knives Plan. I care others who would benefit would know there is this information. “Prevent and reverse the leading chronic ailments, even reverse heart disease and diabetes. Other diseases that are also positively impacted by this type of diet include: high cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity, and overall mortality. Cancer is also significantly affected by this diet. In fact, the foods that make up this diet are the exact same foods that were recommended in the first “surviving cancer” dietary recommendations. There is also evidence that a plant-based diet may reduce the risk of diverticular disease, gallstones, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, and kidney disease. Furthermore, after switching to a plant-based diet, people routinely report experiencing or seeing in others improvements in a range of ailments, including osteoporosis, arthritis, headaches, acne, asthma, sexual dysfunction, reflux, lupus, inflammatory bowel disease, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, dementia, Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis, infertility, insomnia, and sleep apnea.”
