Medical Forum / General / Nutrition / June 2005Health Care Industry Threatened by Vegetarian Life
From: "Robert Cohen" <notmilk@...> Date: Tue May 10, 2005 12:14 pm Subject: Vegetarians are Unhealthy for Health Care Vegetarians are Unhealthy for Health Care Vegetarians are unhealthy for a health care system which relies upon diseased people for cash flow. "Type 2 diabetes mellitus is less likely to be a cause of death in vegetarians than non vegetarians." American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1988 "Mortality from coronary artery disease is lower in vegetarians than in non vegetarians." British Medical Journal, 1994 "Breast cancer rates are lower in populations that consume plant based diets." American Cancer Society Cancer Facts and Figures, 1994 "Vegetarians have a lower incidence of hypertension than non vegetarians." American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1994 "Incidence of lung and colorectal cancer is lower in vegetarians than in non vegetarians." American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1994 "Vegetarian diets low in fat or saturated fat have been used successfully as part of comprehensive health programs to reverse severe coronary artery disease." Journal of the American Medical Association, 1995 "Vegetarian diets have been successful in arresting coronary artery disease." American Journal of Epidemiology, 1995 "Scientific data suggest positive relationships between a vegetarian diet and reduced risk for several chronic degenerative diseases and conditions... Journal of the American Dietetic Association, 1997 Modern health care seems more to be about insurance costs and cash flow than good health. It can be argued that the cure for what ails society's financial, health, and spiritual failings is the adoption of a plant-based diet. Scientific data published in peer-reviewed journals supports that conclusion.

It may be better than the "typical american diet" in the short run, but the human body is not genetically designed to eat plant foods only. Don't worry, they've already come up with a plan to deal with vegetarians, which really got rolling around 1990. They started to market the highly biochemicallly unstable omega 3 and 6 polyunsaturates as "essential," even though the literature on the dangerous of polyunsaturates is massive, and ther is basically NO literature on the dangers of supposed deficiency. Also, garhi is correct, in that many plant foods are high in toxins (not just polyunsaturates) and enzyme-inhibiting substances. And, while most fruit is great, even in large quantities, you will need to eat other food as well for high quality protein, etc. > Also, garhi is correct, in that many plant foods are high in toxins > (not just polyunsaturates) and enzyme-inhibiting substances. And, how many toxic plants do you find in an average diet? polyunsaturated fatty acids are not toxins- or can you give me the LD50 of these? > while most fruit is great, even in large quantities, you will need to > eat other food as well for high quality protein, etc. >> Also, garhi is correct, in that many plant foods are high in toxins >> (not just polyunsaturates) and enzyme-inhibiting substances.

Arachidonic acid introduced directly in a rat vein, a few mg. >Don't worry, they've already come up with a plan to deal with >vegetarians, which really got rolling around 1990.

Didn't know US research was that behind European and even Indian (in India, not amongst Indians in US) research. First time I heard about biochemistry was in 1975 and was joining a guided tour in the institute where I met a group working about both essential fatty acids, but also about bad effects of the elongated version of Mead acid, erucic acid (which in fact body may produce from Mead acid and do, one of the bad sides of eating too much omega-9 acids compared to omega-3 and omega-9) |
