Dangers of vegetarian/vegan diets and importans of animal foods for children
http://www.nutrition.org/cgi/gca?SEA...bstract%28s%29
I find it amazing how REALITY contradicts almost everything the medical mainstream as well as animal rights, vegetarian/vegan fanatics would have us believe about nutrition. It is absolutely mind boggling. While these diets are similar to what is recommended for us to eat by AMA NIH and others when we see large groups of people eating such diets we find they are extremely defficient and unhealthy. The children are the ones who suffer the most on diets such as this yet that is never taken into consideration by politically correct nutritionists. "Diets are mainly cereal-based, with tubers and a variety of vegetables and fruits when available....In general, Kenyan children have inadequate intakes of energy, fat...Baseline data revealed stunting and underweight in 30% of children and widespread inadequate intakes and/or biochemical evidence of micronutrient deficiencies, particularly of iron, zinc, vitamins A and B-12, riboflavin and calcium. Little or no ASF(animal source foods) were eaten and fat intake was low...There is an urgent need to increase the intake of animal source foods by Kenyan children." hmmm inadequate energy intake...inadequate fat intake...hmmm...grain/vegetable based diet...hmmm...does any of this sound familiar?...Calorie restricted fat restricted vegetarian/vegan diet perhaps? The very same that is recommended by mainstream politically correct nutrition for health and longevity. Will they ever get a reality check?? "Animal source foods (ASF) can provide micronutrients in greater amounts and more bioavailable forms compared to plant source foods, but their intake is low in many poor populations." Another example of how plant/grain based diets are diets of poverty and famine and not foods humans seek out for optimal health. other significant quotes: "Animal source foods can provide a variety of micronutrients that are difficult to obtain in adequate quantities from plant source foods alone. In the 1980s, the Nutrition Collaborative Research Support Program identified six micronutrients that were particularly low in the primarily vegetarian diets of schoolchildren in rural Egypt, Kenya and Mexico: vitamin A, vitamin B-12, riboflavin, calcium, iron and zinc. Negative health outcomes associated with inadequate intake of these nutrients include anemia, poor growth, rickets, impaired cognitive performance, blindness, neuromuscular deficits and eventually, death. Animal source foods are particularly rich sources of all six of these nutrients, and relatively small amounts of these foods, added to a vegetarian diet, can substantially increase nutrient adequacy" "A previous longitudinal three-country study in Egypt, Kenya and Mexico found significant positive associations between intake of animal source foods (ASF) and growth, cognitive development and physical activity." "Observational studies of dietary patterns and growth and studies with milk supplementation have shown that children consuming diets containing animal source foods grow better." It is sickening to me that despite all of this clear and indisputable evidence we are still told to eat vegetarian low fat diets not only for ourselves but for our CHILDREN!! And you can still see incidents of ignorant missguided parants killing or seriously injuring their babies and children by trying to feed them those kinds of diets. This should not be happening!!!! There is absolutely no reason for it. Every person should understand these basic facts about human and child nutrition but they do not. It happens FOR NO OTHER REASON than the flawed recomendations of the mainstream medical comunity and their refusal to comprehend the basic facts of human and child nutrition and do everything they can to inform parants about the truth. They are responsible for the injury and death of countless children. All of the observations in these recent studies fully support the observations seen by Weston Price in his travels. Animal source foods are vital to human health. That is the simple truth. The refusal of people to understand and accept this reality is mind boggling. The health of these vegetarian african groups is in stark contrast to the superior health of cattle hearding tribes with animal source diets. Another thing worth mentioning is the rate of diabetes in africa is one of the highest DESPITE the lack of large amounts of modern processed foods loaded with refined carbs. This is not surprising considering the extremely large number of people who have no choice but to live on vegetarian diets. This fact is significant showing that strict plant/grain based diets consumed almost from birth with no animal source foods can be just as dangerous if not more so than diets with high amounts of refined carbs but also containing large amounts of animal source foods like the modern american diet. When will you animal rights fanatics come to grips with reality? When will you understand that your vegan diets are harmfull not just to yourselves but especialy to children. Humans need animal foods to thrive and children need them to grow properly. If you want to injure yourself that is fine with me but when you endanger others, especialy children, you are crossing the line. I can only wonder what animal rights fanatics such as PETA would do in situations like those in Africa. Probably let those millions of HUMAN! thats right HUMAN children suffer and die so that animals would not have to die in order to nourish them properly. Makes me sick. |

Rick, you didn't complain about Wolfbrothers lack of "objectivity" in
reporting problems from areas with poor soils or famine. This is a well used false dilemma tactic. The facts are that there are vegetarian kids who grow up and develop normally. This is not my opinion, but as Wolfbrother admits, the opinion of plenty of health experts, read his opening remarks. "I find it amazing how REALITY contradicts almost everything the MEDICAL MAINSTREAM as well as animal rights, vegetarian/vegan fanatics would have us believe about nutrition. " Wolfbrother is another one of those incredulous self appointed experts (http://www.uwgb.edu/dutchs/PSEUDOSC/SelfApptdExp.htm) who just can't accept what has already been agreed by and observed by the experts.

The article does not support you proposition that we need to eat animal products. It supports the proposition that humans need B12. > Neurologic Impairment in Children Associated With Maternal Dietary > Deficiency of Cobalamin-Georgia, 2001: > > http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content...urnalcode=jama ditto > A maternal vegetarian diet in pregnancy is associated with > hypospadias.

Milk doesn't provide enough either unless supplemented. Only a few kinds of fish provide much vitamin D. Some mushrooms can be reasonable sources. > Totally vegetarian diets and infant nutrition: > > http://pediatrics.aappublications.or...ode=pediatrics So what about vegan mothers who supplement with vitamin B12 and get plenty of sunshine? How do you think they do?? I can save you answering this, because I personally know vegan kids who have done fine, no rickets and no anaemia. My daughter Candie is vegan from a vegan mother and has no developmental problems. This single case destroys your hypothesis. > The changing pattern of maternal and neonatal anemia at Udaipur during > 2 decades in relation to poverty, parity, prematurity and > vegetarianism: > > http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/q...t_uids=2064586 Again selection bias. Although of concern, none of these papers actually seem to support your proposition Wolfbrother. I do agree with you that veganism is unnatural, we would get insects and dirt in a natural diet, and these can supply the B12, EFAs and even a useful protein boost. John C |

> I don't know that he used any tatic at all. He did, I pointed it out, and now he has done it again! > I do know however that *you* used a site that only wanted rubes to buy > books. No, if you read into it a little you will see that the mother there has 4 kids all vegan (I think they use honey), but they use no supplements. I have heard other reports of 2nd and 3rd generation life vegans who don't touch supplements - I suspect they grow their own produce in their own nightsoil. > But not on a 'natural' diet. There is nothing natural about suppliments. Supplements are not essential. B12 may be obtained from faeces or dirt, but we choose not to eat that - animal products are not the only source of B12. > What's been agreed on by experts is that a vegan cannot get his b12 > naturally for plant material. Unless of course those foods have been > unnaturally fortified. Animals don't make B12, it is synthesised only by bacteria. These live inside the animals guts. > What the proof is that the longest living groups of people in the world are > not vegan. There are no mortality studies on vegans so nothing to compare with. The Okinawans have the greatest average longevity I believe, but meat is only a small part of their diet. Populations that eat large amounts of animal products don't have the greatest longevity. However, longevity is not an indicator of quality of life. It is however, not a specific aim of vegans to live longer, rather to reduce animal exploitation and suffering. In fact dying sooner would probably help that greatly! > Too bad you don't have any proof of the rest of vegan claims like 'saving' > more animals. I'm not sure vegans claim to save more animals, just to reduce some of the suffering inherent in farming and lifestock slaughter. The key ethic for veganism is actually non-exploitation - veganism is basically about animal liberation, not how many animals are killed. Modern meat production is inherently toxic and destructive, so I would imagine worse than veganism in terms of total animals killed. Eating some bugs out the yard or bagging a rabbit would save more lives than eating commerical meat I guess, and probably more than eating a commercial vegan diet. But if you grew all your own plant foods, then I think that would save the most animal lives. John C |

You can't claim it both ways, dolt. But the 2nd part of your claim is also false. You prove that with each and every one of your ineane posts to usenet. Vegans have no real desire to reduce their impact on animals. As I just said, you all prove that with each post. You follow only a simple rule for your simple mind, 'eat no meat.' > > > Too bad you don't have any proof of the rest of vegan claims like 'saving' > > more animals. > > I'm not sure vegans claim to save more animals, just to reduce some of the > suffering inherent in farming and lifestock slaughter. ================= LOL The truth fainally comes out.

The amount is important Rick, because some people suggest eating a lot of animal products is optimal.

It's up to people to choose Rick. Some are interested in health, many are not. Since many vegans are not interested in health they make a selection biased group to study for good health. You simply cannot generalise from a heterogenous population like vegans and then draw specific conclusions. > But the 2nd part of your claim is also false.

There are many vegan land community projects now than minimize their impact on land and animals. Here are 2: http://www.ecoforest.org/ http://rawveganeco-villages.org/ These kinds of projects have minimal impact on animals, there is no use of municipal supplies. These kind of projects are now growing in numbers, and most are vegan or vegetarian. I plan to join one in the next few years, but mostly to save my own animal, saving others is just an added bonus. Furthermore I know vegans who work at shelters and rescue centres for animals that would probably have died if they had not received their care. > LOL The truth fainally comes out. It's not about killing animals, it's > only about the hatred you have for those that kill different animals than > you do. Way to go, killer. You don't listen do you Rick, I made this patently clear that it is about exploitation, and the way in which people kill animals. The focus is basically on psychology. Being vegan will obviously help to save the lives of creatures that may otherwise be killed for the table. Comparing people who live similar lifestyles, one vegan and one not, I think it fairly obvious that the vegan will cause less death to animals - starting with those killed for the table. I would like to see you demonstrate otherwise. > ROTFLMAO What's more exploitive of an animals than to kill it for your > convenience and entertainment? You realy really are just too stupid for > this, hypocrite. No Rick, you are just illogical. You fail to acknowledge the difference between intentional and accidental killing. > No more so than modern mono-culture crop production. Eating agrochemical mono crop foods is not necessary for vegans. Most the vegans I know are into organic foods, and try to grow their own. I grow a few fruits and veggies in my yard, but really we need a lot more land and time to work it to be self sufficient. > Yet you, nor anyother usenet vegan here even comes close to terying to grow > their own. It's all about your selfish convenience and hatred of others. Well I admit to disliking people for funding and participating in cruely to animals for no good reason - and why not? For most people it is not so convenient being vegan. You paint a very narrow and warped picture of what vegans do for animals Rick, which reflects your own biased agenda, an innevitable product of your twisted psyche. John C |

You have cut yourself off from their production and use. You now have no say in their lives idiot! If you really wanted to make a difference in meat animals lives, instead of just killing far more animals than necessary, then you'd still eat meats. You'd eat meats form alternative siources that provide farmers and producers with the incentive to change their techniques. you don't. ou prefer to just drop out, and cause far more brutal, inhumane deaths of animals on far greater numbers. Quite the compassion you have there, hypocrite. Comparing people > who live similar lifestyles, one vegan and one not, I think it fairly > obvious that the vegan will cause less death to animals - starting with > those killed for the table. I would like to see you demonstrate otherwise. ================= I have many times, you ignorant fool. I'll compare my meat-included diet to yours anythime. the beef I eat is all grass-fed, raised right down the road. No hormones, no antibiotics, no stalls. If they feel the need, they have a large 3-sided barm for cover. Otherwise they roam the fields and pastures at their leisure. The slaughter house is the next town over. Over all, they are raised, and consumed withing a few miles. How much of your crop diet can you claim that for? very little. Especially since every vegan site I've ever seen that talks about their foods includes lots of exotic fruits and veggies imported from god only knows where around the world. > > > ROTFLMAO What's more exploitive of an animals than to kill it for your > > convenience and entertainment? You realy really are just too stupid for > > this, hypocrite. > > No Rick, you are just illogical. You fail to acknowledge the difference > between intentional and accidental killing. ==================== No I don't. You ignore the point that the animals that die for your food are not killed accidentally, fool. Aniamsl directly targetted for death with poisons are not 'accidental'. You know that animals are in the fields, farmers know tha animals are in the fields, yet *neither* of you take any actions to reduce the numbers that are killed. When it happens knowingly, they are not accidental. > > > No more so than modern mono-culture crop production. > > Eating agrochemical mono crop foods is not necessary for vegans. ===================== yet it's what they eat.

Organic farming is done the same way. It's just that the pesticides they use are many times even more toxic to animals and non-target animals than regular ones. > > > Yet you, nor anyother usenet vegan here even comes close to terying to > grow > > their own.

Correct, diet is part of veganism. > And neither of those address the "proof" I was talking about fool. posting > to usenet has no survival need attachted to it. You post here for > entertainemnt. You are culpable in the unnecessary deaths of animals that > that intails, killer. Posting to usenet may serve to educate others and help them towards a less destructive lifestyle, as well as help improve their health with good information. It can also be useful to challenge the unhealthiness of the meat diet system. Thanks to the internet there are probably thousands more vegetarians and people interested in environmental issues, this could help to take society into more harmonious ways of life. A killer is one who sets out with the intent to kill. You seem to like your own incorrect use of the term. Yes, by participating in life and certainly in high tech, we add to the total of destruction. But for me the internet has been the start of many good things that may eventually benefit more than they have cost. What is your solution to the destructive global megaculture?

Dangers of vegetarian/vegan diets and importans of animal foodsfor children
My children were raised as vegetarians, almost vegans.
One is 26, the other 22, headed to law school. The 26 year old played in the national junior olympics, and was a in the top 10 wrestling in his state, a state cup soccer player, and American Legion ball player. My 22 year was a varsity soccer play and a big strapping young man, a back packer and runner.
