It’s true that I find the data to be compelling that our species is, when you consider the entire known history of homo sapiens eating habits, omnivores. That makes sense to me: eating what was generally available is pragmatic, and our bodies have opportunistically evolved to leverage proteins, fats, and amino acids available in animals, as well as nutrients from plants. And that’s how I live: eat and respect animals that led natural lives, eat whole veg void of pesticides, drink mineral water. Fast by default (never snack) and don’t drink your calories. Think intermittent eating instead of intermittent fasting. All this being said: I have lots of carnivore and vegan friends. Even if I do find those diets to be dogmatic and unnecessarily politicized, I say ‘you do you’ and embrace them all the same. Variety of viewpoints is what it is to be human. Our bodies are incredibly adaptive, I’ve seen peeps geek out on veganism successfully and it’s quite impressive. Seen people go years on carnivorism with seemingly no problems. |
