Meat is Burger

My statement about hunter gatherers and osteoporosis was in response to another person's post, but it can still be proven that their high-meat diet is to blame. Osteoporosis is caused (in large part) by diets high in animal protein. It's been documented that osteoporosis and bone fracture rates increase as consumption of animal proteins increase. The relationship between animal protein and osteoporosis/bone fractures is well established, and very proven.

Your friend's family may not have visible problems, but eating diets high in animal foods has consequences. Not all smokers develop lung cancer, but that does not make it healthy behavior. I don't know what your homeopath believes; I only know what you have told me. If your homeopath's dietary recommendations are what you say they are, then they are not well supported. I know this because I have done the research, and I read the studies. For that reason, I cannot see how she could have come to such conclusions about what a healthy diet is. It's not about who has better evidence, it's about what the evidence shows. If she "scrutinizes" as you say she does, then how could she have missed such a recurring concept? Maybe she is not interpreting the data correctly, or she is only paying attention to flawed (unscientific) sources, or maybe she hasn't done the research at all. No matter the reason, it still remains that the dietary ideals you expressed are not in line with what is known about health and nutrition.

The rest of your post seems to drift off and argue points I was not aware were included in the previous conversation. I am not necessarily against "detox diets", mostly because I do not know enough about your particular detox plan to make an informed decision to its validity. What I said earlier was just to make the point that if your homeopath truly believed that meat was healthy, than why would you need a meat fast? The reason why meat and animal proteins are unhealthy to the human body is because we were not meant to eat a meat-based diet. There are some toxins, but it's just one of many things that pose a health hazard. Anyway, for the record I do consume soy foods on occasion but I do not eat oil except for once or twice a year (on Thanksgiving for example). If you have concerns about soy, then I would be happy to address them.
