RE: You Can't Be A Vegetarian

in #health7 years ago

I stopped eating meat because of the amount of anti-boitics, steroids, hormones etc.

organic plants have more pesticides.

Not if you grow them yourself :)

You can raise your own healthy animals too

Sure, if I had enough land.

you still kill worms, bugs and other living things.

That's my point, I didn't stop eating meat because 'I don't like killing things'. There is more to some people being a vegetarian than that point alone.

Like what? internet cults?

NO the fact you don't want to put any more anti-biotics, hormones, steroids, toxins and anything else unnecessary in your body.

your "organic veggies" already have those.

that's true...
Most of the country use harmful fertilizers, mostly in developing countries, to increase the production and so that they can export to another country. if we eat that crops in the form of grains, flour, etc they affect our endocrine system. and in another way, if the animals eat that same crop and then we eat that animal it just minimizes the effect. we are doomed either way...
