Another issue most people are not aware of is how toxic plants are to humans.
ALL plants have toxins. Plants "want" to survive, but they cannot run, cannot hide, cannot claw, cannot bite, cannot fight back in the way animals can.
So, they produce toxic chemicals to harm any animals trying to kill it. There are SOME animals that SOME plants "want" to eat its fruit, so that it will spread the next generation of plant. There may also be SOME plants that "want" SOME animals to eat its leaves, possibly as a pruning mechanism.
But overall, no plant "wants" its body to be eaten, as that would surely kill it.
So, plants create chemical toxins, and they communicate to other nearby plants through underground root system to warn other plants that a harmful animal is in the area trying to eat the plants. The other plants then upregulate these toxic chemicals, too, as a defense mechanism.
These chemicals are harmful to humans.
There are DOZENS of known human carcinogens in EVERY plant in the supermarket (most of which were never natural plants, but were man-made through selective breeding).
These plants also have ANTI-NUTRIENTS, which most people don't even know about. These anti-nutrients block the absorption of vitamins and minerals, even those that are coming from animal foods, if eaten in the same meal.
These toxins cause distruption of the functioning of the mitochondria in human cells, and THIS is what cancer IS -- mitochondria dysfunction.
We think about the toxins in chemicals we spray and otherwise have in our environment, and those are a problem, no doubt.
But the toxins we ingest everyday into our bodies are not understood by most people, and those are most likely the #1 cause of dis-ease.
It should not be suprising, then, that the Big Pharma controlled medical schools teach medical students that nutrition has NOTHING to do with health.
It should also not be surprising that a "plant-based diet" is pushed by the same people who also want to de-populate the Earth of humans.
The level of deception and stupidity is so disgusting.
There are a few vegetarians and vegans I know that understand that a lot of fruits and veggies can interfere with nutrient absorption. However, most people that are on a plant based diet are unaware of this. And this is where they can suffer issues with lack of nutrients even if they are taking in the minimum requirement of calcium and potassium as an example.
Excellent post.
