Women who cut out red meat 'twice as likely to suffer from depression or anxiety'

yes, an allergy to gluten, and eating too much of bread, pasta, etc, has been linked to causing depression.

that is simply not true. i am an 'o' and i have not eaten meat for 20 years. i rarely get sick! (last time was 3 years ago.) i am very very very healthy, eat very well, exercise and meditate. let food be thy medicine.

:feet:

Funny...I seen this thread after I just finished some BBq'd pork ribs, but still have anxiety about getting my ass out of bed and going to work tomorrow.

Red meat is linked to cancer. It's def. not good for you.

I'm proud to be a vegetarian.

So true.

This thread is total bullshit.

And any woman who eats a plant based non processed junk food diet will tell you they feel a million times better mentally then when they ate animal corpses.

Could be that everyone she knows is either making fun of her or trying to scare her about not eating any meat.

If someone was on you all the time about your giving up coffee (or whatever)saying you're killing yourself and you need coffee to be healthy, you'd probably get depressed & anxious.

I am not crazy about red meat....love chicken, pork chops......I do eat steak occasionally though, but not every day.

Meat doesn't have fiber so people who try to live on meat without adding fiber to their diet in some form might have some issues. People who eat a lot of processed meats might also have an issue because of the nitrites used as a preservative. But meat, in and of itself, is a healthy part of a recommended diet.

Frankly, when you get right down to it, it's not the plant-based foods or the meat we eat in pure form which causes our obesity, cancers, and heart disease. Rather, it's the things such as MSG, hydrogenated oils, refined sugars, chemical additives, fried foods (acrylamides), etc.

I've seen dozens of people make the claim that being a vegetarian is so much healthier but then they load up on fries, chips, soda, and doughnuts. Then they wonder why they have heart disease and other health issues. The best diets are those with the least amounts of processed foods. Keep it simple...

oh really?

so all us vegetarians are nuts?

:eat:


:gay:

Yes?

It's true for me. I've given up meat several times, and I just seem to get weaker and more confused as the days go by.

But I will say that during the growing season when we pick food straight off the plant, there is a feeling of well-being that we don't get from food that's been picked long ago.

But we just need meat or we get all tired and weak.

If it's CAFO meat (aka 99% chance) it's pumped full of GMO growth hormone antibiotic dogshit.

Food designed for morons.

It's the magnesium.

Magnesium deficiency is the cause of most depression.

im not a much of a fan of red meat, but i would tend to blame one life circumstances, rather than red meat

And you believe this?
It was a news paper article no doubt, I see them all the time. They are used as experiments to control and test the masses behaviour patterns. In a years time they will rescind that and say the opposite and give a product name that counteracts bad and offers health benefits.
It is a load of old manipulating consumer surveys.
