@omni Uh, that's pretty wrong. Our bodies are built primary for the consumption of meat and digest it much more easily than other types of food. Other digestible foods are mainly an emergency source of nutrition when meat is scarce, though the discovery of cooking greatly improved their digestibility and has allowed us to survive on far less meat than we would normally need and it's even possible to go entirely without meat if one prepares very specific menus and sticks to them religiously. Main point here is that it's very wrong to say less meat is ALWAYS better for you; at best, replacing it with the right meals cooked the right way can be just as good as meat (but not better), and at worst you are denying your body many essential nutrients.
