Link: Song of the birds Animal slaughter ----------------
One dairy cow provides us with 21 times
as much protein as a beef cow, per life
of the cow. There is no need for the
wholesale slaughter of animals. Yogurt
and cottage cheese are good for us; and
we don't need a massive amount of either.
Over 20 million farm animals die each year in the United States from heat stress, freezing or trauma during transport from farms to slaughterhouses.
Slaughtering rules are weak and mostly unenforced. Pigs and hogs, especially, suffer terribly. Horrific screaming deaths even as they seek affection from their killers. See: HFA.htm Research it and you will be devastated.
Fishing -- commercial and otherwise -- entails every bit as much -- or more -- suffering. Leave the fish be.
Well-cared-for -- right up to the point of euthanasia -- cattle or chicken are a better option for meat, as well as for milk products and eggs.
One chicken provides us with 10 times as much protein in the form of eggs than does meat from a chicken.
The diabetes menu is excellent for everyone. A modest amount of meat or yogurt, beans, walnuts and other nuts, seeds, some whole grains, lots of non-starchy vegetables, and a modest amount of fruit.
Or -- a vegan diet with synthetic vitamin B12, along with careful menu planning.
