Good news for meat eaters. 175 country crosssectional independent review shows that "meat intake, not carbohydrate crops, as one of the significant predictors of life expectancy." #yes2meat

95-98% of health is doing the basics

Eat plants and animals
Walk everyday
Lift heavy things
Run really fast every once in awhile
Run as slow as you can sometimes
Get into nature
Be a grownup about sleep

That’s it.

The average plant based American is responsible for millions of animal deaths in grain fields and storage facilities per year:

🐀7k rats, mice, voles
🐇300 adult rabbits, 800 bunnies
🐜🪲🐛millions of insects

Crushed alive, slowly poisoned, entire lineages wiped out.

"Globally soil contains almost twice as much CO2 as living flora and the atmosphere combined. How well it stores carbon, however, depends on soil type, vegetation and climate."
Sounds like regenerative ag beats monoculture cropping.

The #covid19 pandemic is firstly an issue of a susceptible population. Poor immune/health status has made us weak against this virus. What is plan B when the next virus/ bacteria spreads amongst us?
Sort out the host first. #BigPublicHealth https://t.co/GnNxtn9nKT

[Gary Fettke @FructoseNo]

Pandemic control is a greater host problem than just the virus/bacteria. Improving herd immunity has to be primary objective.
What happens next bug/variant and the one after that?

1) #SaturdayThoughts None of us can hide from viruses. There’s a trillion plus viruses in every cubic foot of air on Earth. Flu virus always here. BUT flu Season only happens when our immunity down in local winter. I had constant allergies (overreactive immune sys) when Met Syn

Argument that climate change is 'caused' by #InnocentCows, as @richardbranson takes #meat off #Virgin flights yet likely ruins entire #GHG argument in one space joy flight. The hypocrisy still astounds me.

Uncomfortable #truth for #vegans.
"for quality protein & some of the most problematic micronutrients worldwide, animal source foods remain fundamental. But livestock also plays a critical role in ⬇️poverty, ⬆️gender equity, & improving livelihoods."
