Comment on Vegan dies from starvation
masterofballs@exploding-heads.com 1 year agoI have 10,000 years of human health outcomes to prove eating meat is healthy. I don’t need long term data to show that not eating meat, only eating candy, is unhealthy.
The fact that vegans can’t become Olympic athletes is proof it isn’t healthy.

The question was never “is meat healthy?” It’s “is eating animal products necessary for human health?” as you originally claimed. Are you still taking the position that animal products are inherently necessary for human health?

Yes and until I see a multi-generational family all fed Vegan from birth till pregnancy and conception I’ll maintain that position. Or see any reasonal percentage of healthy athletes using a vegan diet from before their athletic career started well into the height of their athletic career.
Meat is absolutely required for human healthy. You can service on some really shitty food for a long time but any vegan would be healthier if they included animal foods 100%.

So, instead of using data to decide your position, you decide your position ahead of time and ignore any information to the contrary that isn’t a decades long study? I would think the more reasonable position for you to take would be that you don’t know if eating animal products are necessary for long-term multigenerational health outcomes.

Oh there is plenty of data. Just look at life expectancy. Look at the highest meat consumption per person vs the lowest. India has a shit life expectancy and eats very little meat. Japan and hongkong have very high meat consumption and live very long.
