To eat or not to eat, that is the question.

Many times I have cried driving past cows in horrible surroundings jacked up on chemicals and hormones and other gross things. For ten years I did not eat meat.

The commercial raising of cows for meat is part of the largest environmental problem humanity is facing. Watch the movie Cowspiracy for graphic details.

Consuming raw cow's milk from pasture raised cows is found to be healthy, and used to be prevalent world wide. Now it's almost illegal. Dr. Weston A. Price, an renowned dentist from the thirties totes raw milk as one of the most beneficial things we can eat.

So is liver, cod liver oil and, well, any animal organs.

Dr. Price discovered that vegans, (God bless you and your heartfelt caring for the living creatures of the planet), are the least healthy group of all folks due to nutritional depletion. You can read about it in his book Nutrition and Physical Degeneration or on the website www.westonaprice.org

So, it seems, for the majority of folks, we need meat, preferably organ meats - local, organic, pasture raised is best. (On the above website local chapters to find such meats in your neighborhood world wide can be found. Raw dairy producers can be found there as well.)

Moving away from eating cows and into eating lamb, venison, yak, elk, bison, wild boar, turkey and such will help lessen the load on our Sacred Cows.

And drinking more raw milk would lessen our need for meat.

As in everything, knowledge and balance are key.

God bless us as we learn to heal the massive imbalances we and our precious animal kin and our beautiful home planet have been suffering.

Thank you Minibot!!

I have known so many Vegans with all kinds of health problems. Bone broth all the way!!!

But we really need to raise our animals differently. And probably start wrapping our heads around eating more insects. High in protein and vitamins, low on pollution, fast growing, cheap, and all of that.

I have a mealworm farm but so far, I have chickened out on eating them and instead have fed them to the chickens...

I think you might want to apply to steemitbloggers.

Yes, bone broth & insects - I hear they all taste sweet. I'm wanting to figure out how to get over my aversion as well. Maybe watching tons of videos on it will help :) - I'll apply - thanks!! And yes we need to go back to healthy husbandry practices!
