I was just talking to people who were saying that having meat every day is bad and not healthy. ?????? If I could raise one eye brow like this ----> :huh: I would have. Instead I just chose not to get into the debate on fat, cholesterol, grass fed, organic, etc. Sigh. Yay for this support group :drinker:

    There are far too many people out there with an agenda. They would have no interest in reading an actual non-observational study because it would crush their soapbox.

    haha I know. It's just funny that everyone thinks the way they eat is the "right" way and believe all of the things they hear on the news or in the "health" magazines like "bananas are evil" and "fat makes you fat" and "red meat causes heart disease". :grumble: It's the reason I try not to talk much about food w/ most people.

    agreed, its frusterating...I don't even bother anymore defending my way of eating, and yes it feels like I am defending it ..:ohwell:

    I'm afraid to say that I used to be one of "those people." Because a read a few books and ate that way for a few months, I apparently thought I was an expert. Now that I eat Paleo/Primal, and I'm feeling better than I ever have in my life...I've decided to shut my mouth unless someone directly inquires. I'm also planning to send my "Happy Herbivore" and "The China Study" books to a friend that recently became vegan....!
