Guest guest Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 Simply speaking from my own experience, I have at this point run into two people who swore by vegetarian diets for many years (17-18) and who now suffer because of that dedication. Both tell me they never would have listened to anyone while they were sold on vegetarianism, but now wish they had not been. I do not know all the health issues one of them, who has been back on meat for the last 2-3 years, has that are related to her vegetarianism. The other one, however, came to me with environmental illness (EI), which started about three to four years ago. She began having major meat craving when she came into environmental illness and has gone back onto meat now. Man is unique unto himself. Trying to apply what you see in other animals to us can be wrought with confusion and misinformation. Having seen my daughter go through EI, and having seen others with EI and what they go through, knowing that the liver having problems is highly involved in EI, and know as I do (whether anyone else here knows it or not) that the liver requires red meat to properly do its many jobs, I will remain an omnivore. Having my daughter back on red meat, large amounts of water, fresh fruits and vegetables, and having found a discipline which has helped her out of the EI nightmare, I know she too will never be anything other than an omnivore.
