Day 49 - Are We Meant For Meat?

This is probably the most difficult post I will write in this series.  It's a rather controversial subject, and it may be difficult for some to read.  This will be my last post in this series, and it's the one where we re-introduce meat into the diet... Or, do we?

With more and more people becoming aware of how our food is grown and raised - particularly, our meat - the vegan movement seems to be on the rise.  A great many people are educating themselves about what goes into the animals we eat and how that can effect our bodies once we eat it.  Others learn of the horrors of "factory farms" and how cruelly some animals are treated, and they decide to follow a vegan diet for moral reasons.

The idea that humans were not meant to eat meat at all is not a new one.  Some people will come up with very good scientific evidence to support that claim.  

On the other hand, there are plenty of people who can offer good scientific evidence to support the other side of the argument - that humans absolutely were designed to eat animals.

This is a big reason why I'm such a fan of the blood type diet.  Being a Bible-believing Christian, I have certain ideas about the history of mankind, as well as what we were meant to eat.  I have a hard time with some of the science theory behind the diet, but it makes complete sense to me to think that some people were meant to thrive on meat, while others were meant to avoid it.  

This week, I am giving you the list of meats, poultry and fish that are considered safe for all blood types.  If you have strong feelings about meat (like I do), then you may want to look further into the blood type diet.  I can not say enough about how this diet changed my life.  I would recommend it for anyone.  If you haven't yet, I strongly encourage you to check out http://www.dadamo.com/.

One more thing about meat - a very wise person recently said, "You are what you eat ate." Please be very careful about your food sources - if you have adverse reactions to corn, you may have adverse reactions to meat that was raised on corn.  Always remember that you are consuming whatever your meat source consumed.  As always, listen to your body!
