My stepdaughter is composing an essay for her coursework at school.
She is doing a pro/con argument for and against meat eaters and vegetarians. can anyone provide any ideas, links to research, their own arguments/theories or case studies for either side?
Also, as a sub essay she is writing about if the human body is naturally designed to eat meat, or is it some that evolved through the invention of fire/hunting/cooking etc.
As I don't really know much about either I thought I'd ask on here. I know how the body can benefit from meat, but I couldn't construct an argument for or against.
She is a vegetarian herself, but I told her she can quote my argument as "I like meat and I'm not going to stop eating it. I don't care what other do"
Cheers for you input in advance,
Baz
lol, wrong forum,
Reposted in S+C,
opinions still welcome though.

First WFA
Second it could be fun for her to use vegetarians like Carwin and Fitch to show you can be a alpha male without meat or something like that?
Pics of farmed animals could be good too to make a point? 
Whoa. Carwin is a vegeatrian??
DanHendersonsAsymetricSmile - "I am nearly a vegetarian aside from the poultry and fish"- Shane Carwin
He's still alpha.
This. I was a bit wrong sorry.

Charles Poliquin had a quote the other day "a vegetarian diet is great as long as you add some meat to it."
awesome
China study, the cure are good reads. Watch forks over knifes and food inc.
Red Meat is terrible for the human body. I don't see how that's still an argument. White meat like chicken and turkey seem less harmful as long as they're natural and not pumped on antibiotics
Mac Danzig is a vegetarian
Overeem is a meat eater
Carwin gets about half of his calories from vegetables and fruit, the other hafl from lean protien sources, which can occasionally include some red meat.. just lean sources like buffalo, wild game, and Frank Mir
Ttt

Both seem healthyMac is a vegan..
I was for a few years and know a fair bit about nutrition.. Meat has some good things; b12, iron, complete protein but also has some bad things; saturated fats, cholesterol etc, said to clog intestines and acidify your blood when our body prefers an alkaline diet. Having been on both sides of the equation I think we generally do better with very small portions of white meat and definitely no milk at all; it's for calves and they only drink it during infancy.. Think about it, peace
I'm a vegetarian and I avoid dairy as much as possible. I can't believe people still drink the milk of another species. Fucking disgusting
DanHendersonsAsymetricSmile - Cow's milk ftw, and in fact i'm going to serve myself a full fucking glass of milk.

Enjoy taking calcium pills.
Fucking idiot. A cup of Almond milk has almost double the amount of calcium A cup of milk has.
Enjoy that osteoporosis
