We have all been lied to about humans being omnivores and eating animal is healthy or necessary for us. Humans are frugivores. I’m a previous pre-diabetic, O+, mostly carnivore most of my life, thought I would die without it, now 20 months frugivore/vegan and I feel awesome and at least 20% better than as a meat eater. Meat is very addictive and it’s not good for us. 

The body requires amino acids, which then form enzymes, hormones, and neurotransmitters that build muscle. Proteins are made inside of you through the consumption of amino acids. Amino acids are found in a fresh, raw, plant-based diet. When you eat animal protein, it isn't usable by the body in that form. Eating an already formed protein is backward, because the body must exhaust energy and lots of time to break it down and re-form it into a usable protein. Animal protein is (second-hand) protein because of the extensive digestion process required to break it down.

Meat is a stimulant that is irritating and inflammatory to our tissues. Stimulants create inflammation in the body, as most of them are acidic and heat-producing, thus initiating an immune response. The adrenaline in meat can give you a temporary feeling of energy, only to make you more fatigued afterward. It is only the adrenaline or epinephrine in meat that is energetic. This is a problem in that your adrenal glands are supposed to supply your body with adrenaline, when needed, for nerve function. When you eat meat, you are ingesting the animal's own hormones and steroids, which then weakens your body's glands as they must drastically decrease their own production of them in order to maintain balance. The neurotransmitters in meat are responsible for the loss of function of your adrenal glands.

It’s like a horror movie in those cafo’s and slaughterhouses. Such horribles crimes especially against female animals and children. Plus so toxic for the environment. As well the horrific torture that goes on in the medical testing industry and for clothing and furniture products and for supplements like bear bile and destruction of their habitats and purposeful killing (orangutans) and in entertainment is appalling. 

We are to let animals live their own lives. We are to help animals if needed and be “man”kind to them and the environment and other humans. There will never be peace on earth until animals are freed from our human torture and killing of them. When you know better, you do better.
