I’m aware of all the people around the world with autoimmune disorders who have got rid of their symptoms on a meat only diet. From my investigations I believe we need at least 30% animal fat in our diet for our metabolism to work correctly.
In New Zealand the state funded media have a disinformation page where they address stuff like that. According to our state funded media meat is bad for human health. No amount of meat is safe.
Surely that’s got to win the prize for the most ridiculous propaganda the world has seen. Would be in the top 3 surely.
I wrote to the media to let them know they are spreading disinformation but of course they didn’t listen
Angela McCardle & Robert Yoho, To understand Libertarianism & such as the oligarch controlled Bank-of-International-Settlements, Bank-of-England & US-Federal-Reserve, we best contextualize our American, Canadian & worldwide western colonial 'exogenous' (Latin 'other-generated') selves as a legacy of REFUGEES from oligarch command & control failure. This legacy of oligarch command & control failure starts in empire after empire, from Babylon 7000 years ago. As each once productive human & biosphere was turned into hierarchy & desert, oligarchy moves its center westward into fresh abundant indigenous nations. Oligarchy & its minions are good at war but nothing else. Passive refugee subjects are exploited as invaders to export oligarch failed systems & destroy successful indigenous cultures. Our Refugee ancestors were economically welcomed as is all humanity's 'indigenous' (L. 'self-generating') way.
BACK-TO-THE-FUTURE 'SYLVALIZATION' (L 'sylva' = 'tree') Our indigenous ancestors contrary to colonial anthropology propaganda are mostly vegans & vegetarians, cultivating vast 3-dimensional Polyculture-Orchards in permanent settlements, with a productivity of sustainable perpetual food, materials, energy & water-cycle at 100 times (10,000%) more than 2-D 'agriculture' (L. 'ager' = 'field'). Among 100s of productive factors are 1) Polyculture's 92-98% photosynthesis compared with agriculture's 2-8% photosynthesis & 2) many 10s of meters deep Polyculture roots, pumping water, minerals & developing nutrient colonies continually restoring the surface biosphere. Agriculture roots are only centimeters deep leaving the substrate hard-packed disconnected with deeper mineral deposits. While I'm vegan 35 years & vegetarian 50 of my 70 years, I realize that; store bought agri-business food is deficient for meat-eaters, vegetarians & vegans, who all must develop an indigenous relationship with a sustaining biosphere. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/design/1-indigenous-welcome-orchard-food-production-efficiencies.
Each person's special focus in life is complementary to all others. Each person's contribution provides this specialist the experience, expertise & decision-making acumen to provide her or his 'community' (L 'com' = 'together' + 'munus' = 'gift-or-service'). The ~100 (50-150) person Multihome-Dwelling-Complex (eg. Longhouse-apartment, Pueblo-townhouse & Kanata-village) provided loving, intimate, intergenerational, female-male, interdisciplinary, critical-mass, economies-of-scale as the basic empowering fractal of human society at all levels. Today 70% of humanity lives in
Multihomes within an average of 32 dwelling-units = ~100 people. 20% of Multihome-Dwellers are extended-families living intentionally in proximity for social & economic collaboration providing trillions of $ of value to the Turtle-Island economy per year as its largest essential economic sector albeit unrecognized institutionally & by government. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/relational-economy
Humanity's many 10s of 1000s of years old indigenous String-shell (eg. Wampum on Turtle-Island/N.

The goal of Do-we-know-? is simultaneous indigenous transformation, where each local Circular Economy can abundantly sustain itself & form voluntary empowered association at every other level of human society as our ancestors before us. Such local association in the millions of dollars economies, which are multihomes can then protect its local intimate data, process, information-system sovereignty as intranets, etc. with its local expertise where needed. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/structure/9-do-we-know-who-we-are
Hi Deborah Butler, Thanks for the inquiry as well as your own 'take' on history. In what I propose from my 70 years of experience, I realize I can be quite wrong, but nevertheless propose these to be proven wrong & disabuse myself of any fallacies held. Some ethnohistory focuses on the mostly nut & tree-foods missing from our colonial diet today. Colonial anthropology takes your position in its paid capture & uninformed degradation of indigenous history, needed for oligarchs to assert their hierarchal authority, command & control over colonies & empires.
The First Nation & world indigenous vegan & vegetarian thinking, which I align with is definitely a minority held school, not an institutionally or academically funded position. Basically we are all of indigenous ancestry. Studies of 'indigenous' (Latin 'self-generating') Celtic & Slavic peoples of Europe during the Polyculture Orchard period show very little meat eaten & few hunting or war implements in the pre Babylon, Assyria, Greek & Roman exogenoug colonial invasions. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/e-history/3-celtic-europe
When genocidally driven by oligarch commanded exogenous empire colonists from our self-generating Polyculture-Orchards, as refugees, we had no choice but to eat those vegetables available on legs & hooves in order to keep our refugee families alive. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/design/responsable-health
As far as I've been able to gather, interviewing various elders in my family, we have a mixture of French Jacques from France as Huguenot, fleeing to Scotland, from France's Cardinal Richelieu's killing back a few hundred years ago during the early 1600s. In 1780 or before, speaking English Scot Jack come to Quebec province of Canada as colonists. One grandmother is a Trotter-Gillespie from Montreal. My great grandmother as a Dewitt from Albany-Troy New Netherlands area of northern New York, carries some intermarriage as Dutch colonists with Mohawk of Kanien'keh as part of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. My mother as a Matthew-Apedaile is born in Quebec from my Scot grandparents. I have a daughter & son both from English heritages on their mothers' side. Having spent much of my life in cultural studies, living & working with First Nations over 59 years, during the 1970s with 45000 Russian Doukhobor vegetarians, German Mennonite & English Quaker communities, I take the stance of Mutual-Aid among people & all species as the greatest factor of evolution as proposed by Petr Kropotkin. Like all of us, I'm simply a researcher, not of any definite truth, but privileged to have had excellent mentors & detailed study over my 50 years of vegetarianism & 35 years of veganism, with excellent body health results so-far. Wild foods & herbs are a big part of my daily diet. https://sites.google.com/sites/indigenecommunity/e-history/2-mutual-aid-a-factor-of-evolution
Deborah, I don't advocate for Vegetarianism or Veganism, always telling my friends & family to follow their inner feelings & experience as well as their own research. If this inner direction takes people into Carnivore directions, I only ask that; such food is appreciated & celebrated as a gift of life. No one size, food, herb, natural-supplement etc fits all or can be prescribed with each person being so unique.
As someone who gathers Butternut-Walnuts nearby & lives by these, has harvested many Hazelnuts, Almonds & collaborates in a large Oak-acorn stand over many decades, I'm aware of how productive these tree & bush canopies can be, providing some of the best quality Complex-carbohydrates with large protein components, easily complemented as Amino-Acids with grains & seeds of many kinds. Eastern Europe from my decades with Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, Slovak, Serbian-Croat friends, holds many nut trees, but before exogenous colonization, once held massive Polyculture-Orchards. Areas such as Kazakhstan (western Asia), now largely desert, once held massive Polyculture-Orchard nut stands, which hold excellent winter-food, along with berries, herbs, vegetables etc. stored fresh in root-cellars, dried, fermented, sprouted etc.
UNESCO studies, to which a scientist mentor spent many days sharing with me his research back in the early 1970s, helped establish how oligarch forced colonial agriculture cut down such immense Polyculture productivity & supported once lush, flowing rivers held in steady state flow by indigenous productive food trees. Indigenous humanity, as tree people, know how tree canopies with ~95% photosynthesis, absorb the maximum of solar energy, converts this into abundance. Tree-roots descending 10s of meters deep into the earth's substrate, pump-water, mine-minerals & develop nutrient colonies, all creating maximum macro & micro element nutrition. As an energy vacuum large Polyculture regions draw warm-moist ocean winds inland to condense on many quadrillion square kilometers of leaf & bark surface. 60% of moisture transfer is through condensation & only 40% is rain-snow. Here's a cute set of 3 short films, which a friend helped me produce. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/design/1-how-to-grow-your-own-raw-vegan-food-garden
