Consuming animal products such as meat have been in question for some time, but for some, there is no question. This article will discuss reasons why the consumption of meat could possibly be very dangerous to human health. This is only a theory; however, so is the theory of relativity.
Who eats meat?
Carnivores do. Have you been to a nature or wilderness museum? If you have, you would have noticed that there are no humans in the carnivore section of the museum, carnivores include lions and tigers. Carnivores have teeth designed to tear the hide out of a zebra, humans do not have this ability.
Teeth makeup
Our bodies are designed with the same teeth makeup as a horse or cow, sharp teeth for cutting in the front and grinding molars in the back for grinding down the food we eat, so that it is broken down into liquid form or close enough to it before entering the esophagus and gets to the stomach. Tigers and lions have piercing teeth all over, not just in the corners of their mouth, we humans only have four, nothing like a lion or tiger but everything like a horse and cow. How can we justify that we are meat eaters simply because we have four piercing teeth in our mouth, would we not have a complete set as the tigers and lions do? Horses and cows do not eat meat; however lions and tigers with their complete sharp teeth make up do – this links diet and teeth makeup together by nature.
Instinct
Carnivores kill their meals and endure in the gore. If someone were to give you a chicken, you would not bite its head off with your mouth and neither would your ancestors. There is a cousin to carnivores and they are called scavengers, such as hyenas and jackals, they eat the left overs, they eat dead meat (carcasses), much like many humans are doing; however, there is a slight difference between humans and scavengers. Scavengers, because of their natural instinct, do not touch or eat meat that has been dead (a carcass) for more than 72 hours. Something lets them know (instinct) that the toxins from the putrefying carcass is not healthy to eat, will make them sick and possibly kill them, so they do not touch it. Humans on the other hand are void of these natural instincts due to media, society, and profit. Humans kill their food as carnivores do, but cannot eat the meat in this state, so they hang it out to dry to “cure” it, which is a nicer word for saying letting it putrefy and rot. After this stage of rotting, humans still cannot eat it, so they burn (also known as cooking) it, something that no one should do to things of value. You do not burn your money, children or valuables; people should not burn their food either because burning is destructive, just about all enzymes are destroyed when cooking as well as much of the nutrients. After the burning process is over, humans still cannot eat the meat so what do they do? They put sauce on it, in order to make the meat palatable. People do so much in order to eat this substance; they do not realize how much effort they do to eat meat. Do you know what in nature eats rotting meat – burned or not burned? Maggots, people eat the food of the maggot.
Energy
All things get their energy from the sun, trees feed off the energy from the sun, they grow hundreds of feet high and live for thousands of years, and when there is energy exchange, only 10% of the energy is passed on. So the animals that eat that eat the plants receive a portion of this energy. The animals that eat the animals do not eat the animals that eat the animals because the animals that eat the vegetation have better quality flesh from receiving 10% of the energy the plant received from the sun. If we eat for energy exchange, instead of eating the animals, would it not be better to eat the food of the animals that the animals eat eat? There are potato clocks, a clock that feeds off the energy of a potato, you plug in two prongs into the potato and the clock starts to work. Now, if you were to burn (cook) that same potato, the clock would not work because most of the energy has been destroyed. This example links cooking, dead carcass, and energy and answers this question… How much energy can you get from a burned (cooked) carcass? The answer is none, unless you are a maggot, which is the only other thing in nature that would eat such a thing. Humans eat the food of a maggot.
Intestine & Science
Humans have a very long intestine – about thirty feet in length, carnivores such as tigers have a very short intestine – about 3 feet in length. Humans need around 3 days to get the meat to pass through the intestine, tigers take less than a few hours getting rid of the meat before it really starts to putrefy. Imagine that meat in a hot tube at body temperature for 3 days and think about how that would smell or look. Actually imagine this experiment: put a piece of meat on your kitchen counter and put the room temperature to 98.6 degrees – the temperature of your body; leave it there for three day, if you ever do this, you will be disgusted with the results. Keep this image in mind and link it to the meat in your intestine this very moment. Is it so hard to believe why we get sick? Your body take its nutrients from the food you eat through the walls of the intestine, imagine the putrid toxins absorbing through your intestinal walls and running through your blood stream pumping through your brain and heart by the minute.
Protein
Meat has too much protein, too much protein stores as fat – as discussed by many academics and doctors, but the argument about animal protein does not stop there – to read more click here.
Fat
There is too much fat in animal meat – even if you cut all the fat off a piece of meat. A high percent of the fat is in the meat itself. We are also discussing saturated fats – not the good kind that your body needs but the ones that scar your aterial walls enabling LDL cholesterol to kling and cause serious conditions. This has been the findings of the leading heart research team in the USA. Meat will make you fat because there is so much fat content in the meat, click here for more on fat and obesity.
