Vegetarianism, is it a good idea of bad idea?

Vegetarianism, the diet of eating only plants and fasting on a regular basis has been the subject of a lot of research over the years. It holds one of the biggest groups of zealots the world over and is probably one of the most unnatural diets for the homosapien (H.Sapien) to consume. The fact is if you look at our dietary history throughout time you find that mankind has always been a hunter/gatherer. We are not people who need vegetables but I too felt we did at a time.

There were three years of my life dedicated to fasting, eating vegetables and fruits, all in hopes of being healthier. Over time the lack of animal protein robbed me of my muscle mass bringing me to the state of a living skeleton. It was a scary time for me, being a person who since the age of just 12 years old was fighting for his life to become stronger and healthier. When your body is robbed of its muscle mass you simply do not feel at the top of your game so to speak. This isn't what the H.Sapien was meant to live life like.

The human being is a proven hunter gatherer and grains were not processed until far later in life. This is something many people fail to take into account. We have metabolic heredity and because of such we must follow the needs of our bodies. This means eating meat, not eating like some herbivore grazing in a field, there is a reason they are usually slow moving quadrupeds and not fast moving bipeds. There is also a reason we have canine teeth and the metabolic capability to process meats. In fact we only use about 10% of our ability to process acids produced from meats.

Now I am not suggesting taking fruits or vegetables out of your diet by any means, but make it the smaller portion of your overall diet and you will return to the true natural way to eat. That means don't fall for things like the net carb scam, or thing that claim that diets rich in fats are bad for you. Read my books on these hoaxes at: bye bye carbs

Now enjoy living well as you were meant to!
