Guest guest Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 Sorry, PT: This is way off topic, but I feel I must in conscience respond. Maybe humans should or shouldn't eat me*t - there are differing points of view on this as you know or we would all be vegetarian ;=) The fact is that most humans on this list are vegetarian or inclined to be vegetarian. I do not eat me*t. Animals in the wild do eat what they can find and catch for health and energy - and sometimes for fun ;=) Domestic dogs are, however, a long way from the wild. And their human guardians, with the 'higher intelligence' you credit us with (wow - I know some people . . . *LOL* but let's not go there, eh?), can and do find ways to feed them an excellent diet that does not include me*t. Veterinarians, for the most part, obtain their nutritional information at college from lectures given by Petfood companies. They are disinclined to recommend or approve a vegetarian diet, in the main - and also perhaps because they don't credit human guardians with that 'higher intelligence' and ability necessary to their animals' health. This is not dissimilar to the attitude of many human medical doctors towards feeding a vegetarian diet to children. *We* think our vegetarian diet is healthy for kids; many disagree. Likewise with dogs' diet. Of course these are matters on which there will always be disagreement. However, this *is* a vegetarian list and should be a safe and friendly site for mentioning such things. Again, I apologize for prolonging an off-topic discussion ;=) Best, Pat > I feel that humans shouldn't eat meat because we are of > higher intelligence and have the ability and physical capacity to subsist off a > meatless diet.

Interesting age to start a new way of living...changing location, diet, organic gardening, even my outlook (emotional/spiritual). Inserting a photo taken out my kitchen window.....Amy (cat) and I watching the deer...they have figured out we are not hunters and have lots of fruit trees (the dirt mound is the beginning of my japanese style garden with a small water feature).

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 Hi there:) I was recently invited to this and I am glad to be here, thank you:) Though my Husband and I are really quite healthy eaters, the last few years have had us leaning (more and more) towards a vegetarian or semi vegetarian diet..In addition, although I am an Artist and Writer, I may also be considering pursuing advanced study in Nutrition and similar alternative medicines/therapies. (I share this to share a bit of info. about myself and my family and where we stand in terms of the vegetarian diet etc . ) I am a bit curious as to how, however, I was invited to this group No complaint, truly, I'm just not quite sure how/where my email was obtained or the awareness of our interest in vegetarianism and the like. If any (particularly, perhaps the group leader/moderator) could write us back to share these answers, I'd find that greatly helpful., It would be interesting and helpful for me/us to know how this was done, and I'd appreciate it, when you can reply on it. In any case, thank you again for inviting me and my family to your helpful and important forum. We Wish You All Peace and Health & God Bless You All, P & Hsb.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2003 Report Share Posted October 2, 2003 Hi Don, I did a quick search on google for linseed/flaxseed (was sure that has omega 3) and it does. I'll quote from the site at the following link: http://www.springdale-group.com/speciality_crops/linseed.htm: " Of increasing importance, is the production of linseed for use as a food supplement (sometimes referred to as flaxseed in this context). The seed oil, as indicated above, is a rich source of the omega-3 (n-3) fatty acid, a-linolenic acid (around 60%). This is one of the two essential fatty acids (EFAs) that cannot be made in the human body and therefore is an essential component of the diet. The other EFA is linoleic acid (18:2, omega-6). Both are the first members of the metabolic pathways involving polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). " Linseed can be taken as an oil, but I prefer to have it in it's naturally occuring state. However, to absorb the nutrients you either have to crush the seeds (or bite them individually ; - ) or you can get ones that are already split. I feel it's best to have them freshly crushed. So you need a blender or some other gadget that will grind the seeds. Jak - Don Moore Thursday, October 02, 2003 9:42 AM Last night there was an interesting programme on the mind presented by Prof Winston. He was stressing the importance of Omega 3 in our diet. The example shown was a boy who was 2 years below in mental age standard in reading, after a course in Omega 3 (fish oil) he was transformed into a scholar. Can anyone advise on a good veggy substitute Regards Don M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I have tried to make cookies, but they seem to come out more like cake for some reason. Can anyone tell me what I could do to make them more crunchy. Also I want to try to make a pumpkin pie this month. I hope that goes well. How would I make vegan cream of mushroom soup to use in my green bean casserole?
