Vegetarian? Fruitarian? or Healthitarian?
I turned vegan starting around April? The reason is health. Fruits and Vegetables are the best foods of humans.
Animal meat is famine food, you only eat it if there is nothing else available or you would otherwise starve to death. For medicinal purposes I will gladly consume animals. For example, I need a boost of zinc for increasing sperm count or to heal a leaky gut; I will gladly eat oysters a couple of times.
I was never religious and I will never be religious when it comes to the issue of food. I really don’t care about the plight of animals or the plight of plants. I only care about the what is best for humans… that is me and my family. Plant food is what humans are made to run on. It is like my car was made to run best on 95% octane gasoline. I’m not supposed to put low grade gasoline, nor should I mix in diesel fuel. Sure my car will run, but not as well. Same thing with us humans. You want the best results? Plant foods deliver.
P.S. To clarify my statement about the plight of animals. If I needed to eat an animal, I would certainly want it to be a healthy animal, not a miserable animal. A miserable animal will give you miserable nutrition. Duuuuhhhh.
