How many people believe...?

Submitted by Matthew Johnson on February 24, 2006 - 9:12am. Healthy Living

I was wondering how many people on this blog believe that cancer, heart disease, auto-immune disorders, and hundreds more disorders are linked to eating meat and dairy?

Also, does anyone have any facts that "Milk Does a Body Good?"

Do you know the percentage of meat eating people to plant based diet consumers in the world?

Twelve reads and not a single comment. Interesting.

Well, in order ....Most experts agree that there is a big relationship between cancer and other diseases like hart disease, diabetes, etc ...and cancer.

Yes, there are facts and statistics about milk not being good for you. There was a book a few years ago called "Moooove Over, Milk." You might want to read that if you are really interested.

Not sure about the actual percentage of meat eaters to veggie eaters, but North America is the place where most of the meat eaters are congregated. It is said that if meat eaters all over the world would give up meat, then starvation would be stamped out. The resources that are consumed in order to provide the meat supply represent an enormous drain on land, water, etc. It takes so much more to produce, say, 1000 pounds of beef, than 1000 pounds of fruit or vegetables or grain. I don't know all the details of this, but the info is out there if you care to learn about it.

There are 6 billion people in the world, and about 2 billion eat meat and dairy. I was just testing to see if anyone else would have information, to jump start a conversation and find where to turn my blog. I don't want to write something people will not read.
Once again, thank you Nancy.

Ok, it was a test blog. In that case, maybe I should be paid for taking the survey....Ha Ha...only kidding. Good luck with it. There are so many people suffering from life style related diseases. Maybe you can help a few of them.

I do hope to inform people who want to make changes. I am a vegan and have learned so much about the lies we are fed daily, it sickens me. I want to help others. On another blog site I was flamed badly by some who didn't want to be informed, but I stay there and help those who do.
