rather than over consumption, destruction of our planet, killing of life. Your greatest asset as an American, Canadian, African, European, Asian as a human is your ability to work and ability to purchase. Every hour you work and every dollar you spend is a choice you choose who and what you support every time you spend. Never listen to media or especially advertisements do your research make your own choices. Choose LIFE, support the world and global community.

If you have never seen the documentary Earthlings, Food Inc. or A diet for a new America I would suggest you look watch them they do a good job of showing a slightly broader view of the subject.

John is the sign of a responsible human being. To facilitate others to live a more compassionate, healing and caring lifestyle. I just found out Im a "baby boomer" from this talk.

@paulinator61 There is a correlation with our recent hominid ancestors and increased consumption of meat, but when you think critically, this does not prove that meat directly relates to increased brain size. Many animals eat meat, but have not evolved to our brain capacity. Higher calories was needed for brain size, but you can condense calories by cooking plant based foods. The various medical associations and heart association would disagree with your findings based on peer reviewed studies.

@Lipitorforall

Science tells us that evolutionarily our meat consumption increased with increasing brain capacity. Meat more efficiently fueled our larger brains. Meat is appropriate for our modern bodies. Tell the original eskimo (or the Masai) about 40% fat. They would have laughed at you. Sugars and glycemic carbs are the greatest threat to the heart, not fats. Watch the movie "Fathead" for a scientific explanation.

[Lipitorforall]

@ejumc Our ancestors ate less meat that veggetables, and our far back ancestors ate no meat at all. 40% fat is way too much and will not allow your heart the health to live past 60. No thanks.

Hunter gathers live short lives because hunting and gathering is a crappy way to live. It's returns are horrible for the energy expended. and MOST h-g societies eat very little meat on average.
