“You can tell when an idol is being worshiped because human beings are sacrificed” - with reference to the food epidemiological studies used to prop up the current dietary guidelines

This one’s a video by a scientist trained in animal nutrition who turned the tools he used to design feed for animals onto the human food supply. It’s a depressing story.

TLDW: Most food in the food supply is grain. Grain is not protein complete, specifically it lacks lysine. Practically everyone is lysine deficient. To be healthy you need at least half your food to be animal sourced.

Humans classed as obligate carnivores when? We need animal sourced food to thrive although we can get by on plants with supplementation.

    Ballerstedt is always well spoken, if very direct! I enjoy his research and presentation.

    He opened my eyes to the necessity of ruminants in top soil fertility!

      The bit that really grabbed me that I didn’t know was that it’s actually more efficient to feed our grain crops to cattle than to turn that grain to bread if what we want is the complete collection of amino acids we need in the balance we need.

      I doubt it’s more efficient when reckoned on energy, I mean it can’t possibly be, but what use is energy when it isn’t also nourishing?
