**DEBUNKING THE RAW MEAT DIET BS**
There's been some controversy going around on whether the raw meat diet is cope or if it's actually the optimal and beneficial diet for people.
The ideology states that eating raw animal products exclusively is the most optimal way for humans to eat.
The claim that the raw meat diet is the most optimal is generally made by health-influencers online who lack basic knowledge in nutrition and biology like "FaceLowIQ" for example.
Claims:
Raw meat contains all the vital nutrients and vitamins you need.
Fruit is not optimal and unnecessary.
Cooking food destroys vital nutrients.
Let's begin refuting these claims one by one:
First Claim: Raw meat contains all the vital nutrients and vitamins you need.
Raw meat is not a perfect food.
Although it does contain many essential nutrients and vitamins, it's still not a complete food.
There hasn't been any long-term research suggesting the raw meat diet is most beneficial for human health.
There is a lack of Vitamin C in raw meat which is essential for the human body.
Fiber is completely out the window in the raw meat diet and fiber is extremely important for gut health, digestion, and lowering risks of cancers/diseases.
Antioxidants, flavonoids, and phytonutrients, which protect against aging and disease are not found in raw-meat and are only found in plant foods.
Now we'll come to the best part:
HEALTH RISKS:
Eating raw meat is extremely dangerous and carries a majority of health risks which include:
- Illnesses
- Pathogens
- Parasites
Raw meat can harbor pathogens such as Salmonella, E. coli, and Listeria.
Why the fuck would you not want to cook your food?
You're genuinely a fucking idiot if you eat raw-meat.
Cooking your food provides many benefits and I thought this was common knowledge but I guess not.
First of all cooking your food makes it taste better and have it not taste like shit.
Second of all, cooking your food prevents illnesses, pathogens, and parasites which I just listed above.
Third of all, it's safer and more digestible.
While traditional groups ate raw meat back then, their life expectancies weren't very high.
Second Claim: Fruit is not optimal and unnecessary.
First of all, this retarded ideology is completely unsupported by science.
Fruits contain many essential vitamins like Vitamin C, Vitamin A, and many B vitamins.
Fruits contain fiber which helps regulate blood sugar, improve cholesterol levels, and promotes a healthy gut.
Most importantly, fruits contain antioxidants and phytonutrients which help fight inflammation, reduce stress, and reduces the risks of diseases unlike raw-meat.
Fruits are low in calories therefore they help with weight.
I can go on and on but you get the point.
Third Claim: Cooking food destroys vital nutrients.
No, cooking your food doesn't destroy all vital nutrients.
It is true that some vitamins are sensitive to heat but do you really want to risk developing diseases just because you want a few extra vitamins?
You have to be fucking slow.
Cooking your food increases bioavailability of certain nutrients like boosting antioxidants.
It reduces anti-nutrients like lectins and phytic acid.
I can't believe I even had to make this because I thought this was common sense.
There's genuinely people out there who think fruits are bad for you.
