Licensed nutritionist Nonie De Long explains why eating meat is essential for good health
I like to read your articles every week and I have a question of my own. My granddaughter has come home from school with the idea that meat is bad for her and the environment. She thinks eating vegetarian will stop global warming! I don’t see how but that is what she got in her head so she won’t eat any meat now for close to a year, and her mother and father have given up and are buying her what she wants.
This decline in health happens slowly in most people, so it isn’t always clear to them what the root cause is. But when I treat clients in this downward spiral I frequently see the common denominator is a vegan diet. I understand and applaud the desire to eat to reduce one’s carbon footprint. However, a diet of responsibly-farmed meat and veggies with some nuts and seeds and a little fruit and a few healthy condiments creates the lowest carbon footprint, if you consider clear cutting and mono cropping, not to mention factory processing operations used in the big industrial cereal, processed food, and sugar crops.
I am incredulous when I read information online that espouses a vegan diet as healthy for humans. It’s blatant misinformation. I have never in my life met a healthy, vibrant vegan. And I come into contact with a great number of them in my industry. I have even tried raw food veganism for myself - and suffered the health consequences.
