If you’re new to this page I'd strongly encourage you to browse the rest of my feed or read my book, Sacred Cow. There is only so much I can say in one social media post. A few hundred characters are just not enough to outline the totality of my argument for meat inclusive diets. So for now, here’s my elevator pitch:

Humans need the bioavailable nutrients contained within animal products to develop and function optimally. These include (but are not limited to) B12, iron, zinc, niacin, retinol, and essential amino acids.

In case you haven't heard it before.... cow burps are NOT ruining the planet! Blaming biogenic methane production for global climate change is incredibly reductionistic.

Are we looking at this debate in a holistic way? Are we certain of the evidence against meat?
