Engineered meat

[Guest guest]

I'd just like to address one section of Ajay's post,

as shown below.

" Most people who eat meat do so because they feel

that it is a matter of survival. Most don't eat meat

to cause suffering to the animals; it is just that, in

their (flawed) view, the gain to their survival

outweighs the suffering caused to an animal. To them,

animal protein is the only good source of quality

nutrients. "

 

Perhaps that's true for populations such as indigenous

Alaskan natives, but for my friends and relatives who

eat meat, they more likely fall into the category

below:

 

1) They are pretty convinced it's really not that good

for them, are trying to cut down, and have seen family

and friends dying of cancer and heart failure and do

make the connection of poor health with eating meat.

 

2) Again, the people I know who eat meat, do so

because they're accustomed to it, or they like the

flavor/texture, etc., and believe that serving those

needs and desires outweighs the possible deleterious

effects on their health. They don't believe they

couldn't survive without it, they just don't want to.

 

3) They would say they love animals (mostly dogs and

cats) but they make a conscious or unconscious

disconnect between their beloved " pets " and (farm or

wild) animals sold as food.

Hi,

 

I beleive there is one more reason why people eat

meat, dairy and eggs.

 

A lot of people believe that meat and eggs are not

neccesary for their survival, but they are still

required to maintaine their health. And this is

especially true for dairy.

 

And nobody can really prove that those people are

wrong.

There are stories that tell how some people were

healed by becoming a vegan and there are completely

opposite stories, that are as truthful.

There are sientific reseraches proving that vegan diet

is the most healthy one and there are other sienctific

researches (not neccessary sponsored by meat or dairy

industry) proving that some (not as much as it is

ussually advertised) animal protein is required to

maintane proper health.

 

Cheers,

Lena

Lena, while I realize that you were simply stating these studies...and that you certainly don't agree with the advertising hype about pro-meat.....that contradict the values of a plant-based diet...We must all keep in mind that regardless ot the health (pro -or con) aspects of meat-eating, that there are many other reasons that a vegan lifestyle is "the healthiest diet of all". For the PLANET, THE ANIMALS, AND OUR CONCIENCE (Re: cruelty to animals) .

Just wanted to make sure...we all keep these aspects in the forefront...when looking at the attributes of engineered meat...which would ultimately abolish all of these concerns.

IMO the health aspects are simply a bonus.

 

Also I am concerned about this statement: ..."And nobody can really prove that those people are wrong." There are many, many studies that prove that "they are wrong".

I completely agree that vegan diet is better for Animals, Planet and our Conciseness!

And I would definitely welcome Engineered meat, since I am pretty sure it would, if not solve, but definitely improve our terrible treatment of Animals and the Planet.

 

I just wanted to point out one more reason why a lot of people don't become vegan.

"There are many, many studies that prove that "they are wrong". "

I agree and this is the reason I wrote "There are scientific researches proving that vegan diet is the most healthy one"

 

But there are still a lot of legitimate studies proving that some people need meat in their diet for the health reasons.

 

I spent a lot of time arguing with non vegans that vegan diet can be healthy. But for me to say vegan diet is the most healthy one for everybody, is like for them to say, meat diet is the most healthy one for everybody.

I don't think either statement is true.

 

Again, I believe that it is the best diet for the planet, animals and our conciseness, but not always (even though in a lot of cases) for our health.
