Still waiting on your universal origin theory, too...

Never thought this thread would devolve into BS about diet but now I am curious. Am I reading this graph correctly?
Vegetarians have a higher risk of stroke and cervical cancer, and hip fracture than nonvegetarians?

if i am reading it correctly the only area vegetarians 'win' is in stomach cancer, and diabetes really. ?

Just skimming the thread. Did we ever discover the OPs answer to everything?
I now know why I am called a grown up. Every time I get up I groan.

It's OK this thread is all over the place, your comments will likely be germane in a few more posts... Lol

Irony is OP is probably totally correct.

Unfortunately the world will never know because we were deemed too stupid to share it with, lol.

Like they were ever going to share anything when the thread starts with "should I share it with you meat eating Neanderthals?"

I look forward to someday riding a horse as high as that one.

Hey wait, don't vegetarians live longer?

Only when they don't go around evangelizing.  ;)

Well, that's two different studies but essentially, yes.

And as they said, it depends on what type of vegetarian they are.  Ovo-lacto (eat eggs and milk products) are at less risk than strict vegetarians.

From the 2nd paper:

 Vegetarians in the EPIC-Oxford study have a relatively low risk of ischaemic heart disease, diabetes, diverticular disease, kidney stones, cataracts and possibly some cancers, but a relatively high risk of stroke (principally haemorrhagic stroke) and bone fractures, in comparison with meat-eaters. Vegans in EPIC-Oxford have a lower risk of diabetes, diverticular disease and cataracts and a higher risk of fractures, but for other conditions there are insufficient data to draw conclusions.

Upto 1 in 6 have IBS, there's plenty of other diseases of the gut that affects nutritional uptake. These people need balanced diets and supplements.

Then there's actual gut chemistry like the production of enzymes or serotonin which have a massive impact on nutritional uptake.

But yeah I've tested diets, unbalanced diets always show up in blood tests.

I’ve tested out a few health ideas over the years, and went vegan for about 2.5 years.

I started shitting out blood, and my life took a nose dive.

Then, quite councidenally, I got a job moving meat, started eating meat again, and my shit got together a bit better.

I’ve heard the arguments that one can find all the same nutrition in plants, but the problem I see with that, estimating in a general sense, is one has to eat about 3 times as much quantity to get the same value.

If your guts can’t digest food well, and you have acid reflux, that would be a problem with an underlying issue, not meat, IMO.

Then throw in quantum mechanics, multiple universe theory within multiple dimensions then with the observer effect we now have one reality created by the observer within one point in time, in one spatial dimension, in one universe, do we not?
