because meat is the most nutritious food available to us and it's a natural part of our diet. That doesn't mean eating lots is good for you, but eating some is important as it is a source of nutrients very difficult or impossible to obtain from plants. The typical human diet through the ages was cooked vegetables and grains, ripe fruit, and meat. Grains and vegetables are full of natural toxins and antinutrients to deter predation, cooking breaks them down and makes them easier to digest and their nutrients more bioavailable. Fruit in general when ripe produce enzymes which break down their chemicals and tissue, having a similar effect. Cooking meat is mainly for hygiene, but the cooking/processing method may produce many toxins and carcinogens. This is not an issue with plants because they contain large amounts of anti-oxidants and protective chemicals. Modern farming practices and our lifestyles have more to do with our increasing health problems and not any particular food group (except highly processed foods, meat or otherwise, which are a huge culprit). Pesticides and chemicals such as pthalates may contribute to chronic health problems and developmental disorders, but modern farming has also made meat and vegetables/fruits less nutritious and often higher in calories. Genetics play an poorly understood and understated role in what is healthy as well. Eating what your ancestors ate is probably important.

A diet high in animal protein and fat is very important for a developing body, especially the brain. Carbs fuel the body, but meat builds it.

Don't take sides in moronic debates, educate yourself.

I can make a steak that is almost as perfect as anything I've seen done with sous vide. My well done band around the outside is maybe 1/8" instead of 1/16th, but it's damned close. And I can do that on a grill or pan fried. But then I've cooked up hundreds of steak over my life so that may be due to the 26 years of cooking for myself. I've kind of been looking into sous vide a little bit lately though. Seems interesting and I know I'll have to give it a try and see if it's worth the hour long water cook.

I'm on a plant-based diet. I've read that stupid statement a lot from vegans. I remember enjoying meat without any seasoning, thank you. We season meat like we season our plants... to amplify the taste, and in many cases, to make it taste better.

It's not technically impossible for modern humans to eat a nutritional plant based diet, especially wealthy ones. But it does require eating massive quantities of a diverse range of plant foods from around the globe on a daily basis. And even then there are some nutrients that will be of marginal quality (e.g. Heme vs non-heme iron, vitamin d3 vs d3, etc)

>>736939653
my biggest problem with veganism is the ethics behind the practice and associated philosophy. Vegans believe that it's immoral to consume animal products, as the animals suffer from the creation of said products. yet it's perfectly acceptable to consume plant or fungal products (mushrooms are not vegetables).

Arabidopsis thaliana, or thale cress, is a plant model organism; we know a lot about it. One of the many things we've discovered about it, is it's ability to hear, and react. when researchers played sound recordings of caterpillars eating to thale cress, the plants responded by releasing toxins to their leaves in an attempt to protect themselves.

Based on this, it's easy to conclude that plants, like animals, do not want to be eaten or damaged, and in fact they react to protect themselves when threatened. So how is it better to eat plants that don't want to be eaten than it is to eat animals that don't want to be eaten? the decision that consuming plants is morally better than eating animals only serves to say that plant lives are less valuable than animal lives are.

Who the fuck gave you uppity ass bitches the authority to make that decision?

>heme iron literally gives you cancer

This is fucking ridiculous, considering it's the form of iron that's found in all your red blood cells even if you're a vegetarian. Heme is different only because it can be absorbed by the human gut, which is biologically meant to be omnivorous.

>b12 is from bacteria, not animals

And it's only non-industrially produced food source is meat.

>your body makes DHA from ALA

Very, very inefficiently. About 3% of dietary ALA is converted to DHA. So to meet the recommended 250mg of DHA daily, you need 300 cups of flax seeds. Or 3 oz of salmon.

>your body makes creatine

Assuming you never want to build muscle, but just maintain a basic level of strength to keep from falling over when walking, you're right.


>your body makes carnosine

Again, not very efficiently. Vegetarians have 60% less muscular carnosine than omnivores.

>your body makes vitamin d

Assuming you live within 25 degrees of the equator, you can make an adequate supply year round. Most people in temperate climates (meaning most people overall) need dietary d3 during winter months

This isn't science. Google heme iron cancer to see some studies examining this topic

>And it's only non-industrially produced food source is meat.
You do realize most animal feed is B12 fortified? That's how they get B12. It's supplements.
>Very, very inefficiently. About 3% of dietary ALA is converted to DHA. So to meet the recommended 250mg of DHA daily, you need 300 cups of flax seeds. Or 3 oz of salmon.
Your math is way off. You need like 2 tablespoons max, even at only 3% conversion. But vegans upregulate, so it actually ends up needing even less.

You heard it here, folks. Crabs are fed fortified crab feed. Wait, no, they're bottom feeders, and B12 can be found in poo. But fish get fortified fish feed with B12 in it, right? Right? What about insects? We feed them B12 too, right?

>More has no benefits

Industrially farmed animals get supplements, that's what I was talking about. The animals you mention obviously get B12 naturally from their food and water, without needing supplements, just like humans did before we sanitized everything around us.

Interesting "arguments"
>>
>>736955453
>The animals you mention
So it still stands that the non-industrially produced food source for B12 is still meat, because you could just eat a few handfuls of ants.
>>
>>736955706
Nope. The source of b12 is bacteria. The animals eat the b12 produced by bacteria. You could eat a handful of ants to get some of the bacteria produced b12 , second-hand
>>
>>736939653

>>
>>736956383
>The source of b12 is bacteria
Tell me you didn't just say that after the other anon had mentioned that the only non-industrially produced food source for B12 is still meat, and especially after I reaffirmed the statement. Yes, the source of B12 for ants comes primarily from bacteria. Congratulations, you figured it out. Guess what? We don't mass produce that bacteria or the ants that live in the wild, yet you can just as well eat those very same ants from the anthill and get your non-industrially produced food source with B12 included.

I mean really. Are you eating the bacteria first, or are you eating the meat first, when you eat the ants with B12 in them? Tell me you're just eating the bacteria instead of the ants.
>>

Then you need more B12 in your diet so your brain can actually keep up. Eat some ants and maybe you'll be able to follow the conversation and be less retarded.

Implying industrially farmed animals have anything to do with non-industrially farmed animals who aren't fed B12 but contain decent amounts of B12.
>>736954891
My entire post here demonstrates that the point the anon made regarding the only non-industrially produced food source
>food source
>source
>food source
is meat. Several kinds of meat, in fact.
>>736955453
Here you are reaffirming the obvious: Industrially farmed animals get supplements and you decided to mention that when everyone was talking about non-industrial sources of B12, and adding credibility to the fact that the animals I mentioned get their B12 naturally from their environment instead of being given supplements. Look, non-industrially produced food sources that contain decent levels of B12- meat.
>>736955706
This is me saying more of the same but in less words because I assumed you weren't retarded; you could eat ants and still get B12 despite them not being fed supplements or being farmed.
>>736956383
This is you being retarded thinking that putting meat in your mouth translates directly to putting B12 in your mouth instead, as if by magic. On top of reaffirming that you can in fact eat a handful of ants to get B12, but fucking it up by saying that eating the ants is actually just eating the bacteria and not the ants as a whole.
>>736956850
