[quote:Anonymous Coward 78049785:MV80MTUzNzY2Xzc1NDgzMTU1XzkyQkUxMEEx] [quote:NawtyBits:MV80MTUzNzY2Xzc1NDgzMDEwXzg3N0E0QjFE] [quote:2hot2handle:MV80MTUzNzY2Xzc1NDgyODMyX0VERUQ3RTZF] Humans are biologically designed to be omnivores that eat both plants and animal products. We are neither carnivores nor herbivores (aka vegans). [/quote] Actually, humans are designed as frugivores, biologically. A frugivore /fruːdʒɪvɔːr/ is an animal that thrives mostly on raw fruits, succulent fruit-like vegetables, roots, shoots, nuts and seeds. It can be any type of herbivore or omnivore where fruit is a preferred food type. [/quote] No humans are not frugivores. There are not fruits in season year round in the northern climates of Europe, Asia and North America where humans have lived there for thousands of years. Inuit certainly were not eating a steady diet of fruit and most certainly not nuts which can't be had in the Arctic circle. [/quote]
Original Message
Love the criticisms from the veggie / vegans and the American Heart Association. Yeah, well that's what happens when you use "science" to push an agenda to try to drive social change... When new science contradicts your old science you based your whole worldview on... you have to retaliate, dismiss, call fake because your world falls apart.
