I would like to become a vegetarian, because no one takes me seriously when I say that I'm against animal cruelty just because I eat meat (dontcha hate those type of people?), but it'd be hard. I like taquitos, quesadillas and chicken too much.
dont forget this, this :mog: and this

It is completely impossible that your vegetarian freinds need medical assistance because they have not had meat products in so long. The reason why is because there is no nutrient in meat that cannot be obtained from a vegetarian diet and that is a fact. Your body is more suited to eating vegetarian food than it is meat because meat is not as easy for the body to process.Originally Posted by Chibi Youkai
true for most except the meat and vegetable processing... It is actually around the same requirements to digest meat and vegetables... saliva contains enzymes which converts starch to sugar (mainly sucrose) once food has been inco-orperated into mouth... other starches are further broken down by acids, which in turn are further broken down (absorbed by bloodstream) by enyzmes given off in pancreas... remainder of material therefore cellulose and fibres are passed through lumen of small intestine, then passing through large intestine finally imerging out of the rectum (or anus) - cloaca in other egg laying vertebrates...Originally Posted by Anaisa
Meats on the other hand are mostly broken down, only in stomach (by pepsin and resin) and smaller intestine, hence only a slighly smalller amount of time to digest... in fact it is more possible that leaf matter is harder to digest as most plant material is not for digestion (with exceptions such as starch) but for "cleaning" the gut... As humans we, cannot digest cellulose however a majority of other grazing animals do... this is because the appendix of those animals contain cellulase secreting bacteria (enzmye that digest cellulose) which in turn break down cellulose...
hence it can be safe to say that plant material is not generally easier to digest than animal and fat material...
sorry if i went offtopic....

I was going to stop eating animals, but my protein substitute turned out to be impractical. I never knew how expensive it was to buy human infants on the black market…

Meat is not as easy for the body to process. Our colon is not able to pass meat through the body quick enough so that the meat does not have a chance to decay and the body does not absorb any of the toxins which this decaying meat produces. And the extra effort that is needed to do this requires the production of extra bile acids. One of these acids deoxycholic acid is converted by the bacteria clostridia in the stomach to a carcinogenic substance. That is why meateaters have such high levels of colon cancer as opposed to vegetarians. Also unlike meat eating animals that have intestines much shorter than ours so they can pass meat out of the body before it starts to decay and emit toxins we are not able to do that so again your body will be absorbing these toxins as the meat decays. Humans can digest cardboard but that doesn't mean we should eat it or that you are able to digest it well.Originally Posted by Neco Arc

O and for the record, despite us having problems digesting meat, we have twenty times as many problems digesting vegetables/plants, and we don't even get a sliver of the nutrients we need. Basically put eating meat not only rules, it's easier and good for you.
There is no signature here. Move along.
Well ive yet to come across any research as to how digesting vegetables / plants is harmful to us if you have then you should share it. And you haven't included any reasons as to why meat is "easier and good for you".Originally Posted by Maxx Power
I tried being a vegitarian once, I think I lasted about a day. I enjoy meat to much.
I too have tried to be a vegitarian. It is tough. My heart tells me to be a vegan. I've tried that, even used soy milk to replace cow milk.
Actually, I'm pretty shy around people and try to avoid most social contact. I just feel that animals deserve more respect than what they are given. For example, I won't ride a horse, and I don't like horse racing, those beautiful creatures should not be exploited like that.
I'm a very sensitive and genteel person.
