In your opinion, is a vegetarian diet the healthiest?

Real food for real people. Good for every body. Incredible edible. The "basic four" food groups. And the question almost every vegetarian is most tired of answering: Where do you get your protein?
Let's face it folks, agribusiness is trying to brainwash us all. And they've succeeded! Most women I know are convinced that the best way to prevent osteoporosis is to consume dairy products, but the well-documented fact is quite the opposite. The excess protein contained in meat and dairy products actually prevents calcium absorption by the body and is a significant risk factor for osteoporosis.

That's right, I said excess protein. Most Americans eat too much protein. Most American vegetarians eat 50% more protein than they need. So protein really is not an issue at all. Even Frances Moore Lappe, who popularized the concept of protein complementarity in 1971, has long since admitted that "getting enough protein" is simply not an issue.

So what are the issues? How about heart disease

Alex you are correct vegan is the way to go. Avoid red meats, dairy, and carbs like bread. Humans are the only species of animal that drink another species milk. What do cow's drink - water. What do they eat - grass. Baby animals drink mothers milk until they are old enough to walk away. Human babies do likewise but the dairy board has us convinced that we should be drinking cow's and goat's milk and eating cheese. It's a marketing ploy. I used to consume large quantities until my chiropractor told me of a study done where they found that consuming milk and other dairy products actually reduce bone density. I had gotten up suddenly one day and heard a crack in my foot. I broke my 4th metatarcil. I later broke my 5th. This was so unusual for a young male that I went and had a bone density done. It came back that I had the bone density of a 60 year old. I was shocked. Then I remembered what the chiropractor said. So I went to talk to him and he told me about 2 nurses a 55 year old who ate veggies and consumed no dairy and a 25 year old that consumed dairy and meats. Well they both had bone density scans done. The 55 came back that she had the density of a 35 year old and the 25's came back that she had the density of a 65 year old. They had the tests done at different labs. I was stunned.

A friend of mine's wife went vegan and would drink protein shakes with water once per day for some protein. After not seeing her for 4 months when I say her she looked amazing. Fresh skin, lost 35 lbs and felt healthy and had more energy.
