Comment on Why do people still eat beef when we know it's terrible for Earth?
Modern_medicine_isnt@lemmy.world 1 week agoYou started out decent, then went off the deepend. You are connecting plants to refined sugars in the end. An apple (from a plant) has no refined sugar. No plants do. And the milk thing sounds like a conspiracy theory. They ban raw milk because if it isn’t handled correctly, it can make you sick. While this is a bit of an over reach, in most places it started long before thier was an industry to protect.

What you did was take my comment slightly out of context. Fruit doesn’t have refined sugars, though they have fructose (which is a sugar that’s unrefined). If someone eats fruit, and they’re not of the body type to do that, health problems could arise from it. What I was doing was paraphrasing from studies I’ve read on each of the things here that I’ve gone ahead and researched myself.
As for the milk thing, why do you think an Amish farmer was being railroaded for selling raw milk? That’s because raw milk, when handled properly, is fantastic for the body without the need for it to be pasteurized. That’s what he was doing, and daddy government didn’t like that one bit, so they wanted to pull a ritual on him just to ensure they get the message of “raw milk bad”. The goat’s milk cheese I eat comes from raw goat milk, and I do fine with it, in my experience. Your mileage may vary.
