Why do you think there is such a problem with mad cow disease the problem lies in the conditions of the animals within the factory farming industry. The same goes for the industries that mass produce veggies, there is a problem with cross contamination not washing and poor regulation.

I believe in ‘all things in moderation’, and that God put animals on the earth for us to eat, not just leafy plants. I can’t afford money or time to seek out organic or more unusual foods. People in my situation can still eat reasonably healthy by simply making smart choices and avoiding overly processed foods when possible. I don’t have the time to get caught up in nit-picky things like organic foods and humane treatment of food animals when GETTING to eat is the issue.

The egg whites in a carton are much more convenient. I’ve been eating some soy and other things and have been getting leaner and leaner. I think people are way too paranoid about “chemicals” and stuff. As long as you stay away from heavily processed foods, you’ll be fine. Also, saying that peanut butter is bad for you is a really ignorant statement. Just goes to show you that you cannot trust what the internet says…

Most animals people eat are raised on cheap grains, hormones, antibiotics, synthetic vitamins,…

You must understand that people who raise animals for food (animals are not food!) are doing it for financial reasons, not for health reasons or ethics.

The major part (if not all!) of the meat you see in supermarkets are not grass-fed, they live inside factory farms all their short lifes.

You don’t need animals to be healthy, it’s quite the opposite if you eat animals (and sub-products) you probably have more chances of being unhealthy.

QUINOA is a pseudocereal (I don’t think it’s a fruit!) and it has all the 9 essential amino-acids so it is a complete protein:

Also chia seeds, hemp seeds, buckwheat, amaranth, pumpkin seeds, soy beans, spirulina and chlorella are supposed to be “complete protein”.

If some of them look unfamiliar to most of us, it’s time to change that and make meat unfamiliar to most of us.

Since when are cows fattened on cheap grain?!? Having grown up on a cattle station i can tell you that grass is far cheaper than the cheapest of grain for obvious reasons. Feeding cattle grain is generally a last resort during drought or for expensive “grain fed” meat..I also think you are misinformed to say he “average” cow is raised in in-humane conditions..the vast majority are just roaming paddocks eating grass!! Anyway, thanks for the article and I do agree that grass-fed beef is the tastiest despite the price tag often attributed to “grain fed”
