Out of the Vault: Sina's Meat Shortage Solution
CAUTION: This podcast is NOT about whether or not it’s healthy to eat meat. This podcast is for anyone who eats meat and wants to help ensure they will continue to have access to meat.I’m making this statement after receiving hate mail on this topic:For years I have researched this topic in great detail and completely agree that some individuals do very well as vegans or vegetarians. However, scientific research and case studies also indicate that some individuals thrive when consuming moderate amounts of animal products IF sourced from ecologically-raised animals. In other words, both sides of this discussion can find data to support their own conclusion. My position on this topic is that it would be irresponsible and inaccurate for me to declare that one diet is right for everyone. We are all individuals and, therefore, have individual needs and requirements. I work with clients who do well as vegans, while other clients do just as well eating moderate amounts of ecologically-raised animal products. I do not pretend to know which diet is right for other people. Only you know what is right for your body. My goal is to help people tap into their innate abilities so they can communicate with their own bodies to determine their unique individual needs. For instance, my diet varies based on my body’s needs in that moment. Overall, my body usually prefers a vegan-based diet for roughly 2-3 days and the following day my body wants to eat a small amount of meat, similar in size to a condiment. That works for me. It won’t work for everyone because, again, we are all individuals. Consequently, instead of outsourcing the decision to “experts,” I encourage each person to learn how to listen to their own bodies to find the answer that works for them. Having said that, IF you eat meat and would like to learn about one solution for curtailing meat shortages, please continue reading.A meat shortage is coming, beyond what we are already experiencing.
