    That's interesting. I read a study a while back that L-carnitine is good for your heart.

    ETA: I think this is the one that I read.

    I like this part:

    "Even after consuming a large amount of carnitine, vegans and vegetarians did not produce significant levels of TMAO, while omnivores did, according to the study in the current issue of the journal Nature Medicine."

    So, even being part-time vegetarian has health benefits!

    An omnivore IS a part-time vegetarian. :laugh:

    The study specifically identifies "long-term (5-year) vegetarians and vegans" not just vegetarians and vegans.

    No one said humans are a smart animal or that we know exactly what to eat. We are an opportunist as evidenced by how many things we decided to eat based upon our geographical advantage.
    While certain diets may not be optimal we seemed to have been able to adapt to those different deficiencies.
    If given a choice it may be wise to follow advice given by those studied in nutritional science.
    We have conventional knowledge which allows us something our forebears lacked.
    uld have us led back to the dark ages.
    Science is not an entity to be feared, it is a tool given to us all. It's self regulating.

    I eat my steak with a bottle of red wine. This way I am assured that all bacteria is alcoholized and neautralized! :drinker:
