I would say which showed personal opinions.
They never showed that man can deal with saturated fats
cholesterol and toxins.
The clear evidence is for all to see.
They show that humans evolved to eat animals living as nature intended. They also show that modern humans in Western style societies aren't living as nature intended, either.

I have spent many hours collecting evidence showing the kind of meat that humans evolved to eat. Animals living in the wild have natural diets and aren't full of growth hormones and antibiotics etc.
Hunter Gatherer Diets - A Different Perspective
Quote:Data on modern-day hunter-gatherers as well as hunter-gatherer-agriculturalists who consumed traditional diets indicate that such societies are largely free of diseases of civilization regardless of whether a high percentage of dietary energy is supplied by wild animal foods (eg, in Canadian Eskimos), wild plant foods (eg, in the !Kung), or domesticated plant foods taken primarily from a single cultivar (eg, in the Yanomamo) (7–11).

What I really care about is rednecks like yourself using pseudo-science to promote vegetarianism. It gives the impression that all vegetarians and vegans are raving lunatics.

Well, I could go by the bizarre subjective experiences that my brain sometimes throws up. The Earth is a Goddess, I was once a Roman legionary stationed on Hadrian's Wall, there's a mysterious disembodied being at Wigmore Castle on the Welsh Border and the ghost of a man at arms said hello to me at Chepstow Castle. If I ever get a flashback to a life in Paleolithic times I'll let you know what I had for dinner.

The US army look so well after his soldiers that they all get sick by eating
meat.
When battlefield casualties were examined during the Korean and Vietnam wars, American soldiers had significant atherosclerosis at only 18 or 20 years of age. Their Asian counterparts, raised on a diet consisting mainly of rice and vegetables, had much healthier arteries.
Note how it says mainly, not exclusively. The Asian people weren't eating meat produced by Western methods, either.

Every four-ounce serving of beef or chicken contains 100 milligrams of cholesterol. Also, most shellfish are very high in cholesterol. All animal products should be avoided for this reason. No foods from plants contain cholesterol.[/color]
This isn't the type of beef or chicken that hunter gatherers in the past were eating. How do you explain the findings that hunter gatherers eating traditional diets are largely free of the diseases of civilization?

But others are saying that grains are bad for us and we shouldn't be eating them. There's even articles on the internet saying that beans are bad for us as well.
PS: From that article you posted
http://www.pcrm.org/health/health-topics...rt-disease
Quote:Since our bodies make plenty of cholesterol for our needs, we do not need to add any in our diet. Cholesterol is found in all foods that come from animals: red meat, poultry, fish, eggs, milk, cheese, yogurt, and every other meat and dairy product.
Ananda Marga Diet
Quote:You can get more than enough protein and other essential nutrients by eating a balanced vegetarian diet of fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, dairy products, nuts and seeds.
If you go by that article you posted you have to accept that the Ananda Marga organisation is misleading you when it comes to dairy products because it doesn't ban them. You can't have it both ways.
