Protein - Plant better than animal ... Thyx Marbge !
An excerpt from a book: How Our Obsession with Meat Is Killing Us and What We Can Do About It by Garth Davis, M.D. with Howard Jacobson, Ph.D.Dr.
I began to doubt what I’d been taught about nutrition in medical school—and
what my colleagues continued to advise. Instead, I began to do the research for myself.
I was shocked to discover that none of the elements of the Protein Gospel were even a little bit true:
●● Protein is not the key to weight loss—in fact, animal protein is one of the biggest factors behind the obesity epidemic, and, in virtually every study, animal protein is correlated with weight gain.
●● Animal protein is not one of the healthiest foods around—rather, it is strongly associated with diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and cancer, the primary killers of our time.
●● Plant-based protein not only exists—it’s much better for you than animal protein and all plants contain more than enough to support every one of your health needs.
●● A lower-protein (and low-fat) diet is the most effective way to lose weight, improve your health, and prevent future disease.
●● Carbs, far from being the enemy, are (in their natural state) the source of human health, vitality, and vigor.
After years of intense research, I could come to only one conclusion: People whose diets are high in animal protein have significantly higher rates of chronic diseases: hypertension, cancer, diabetes, heart disease,and many, many others, including cataracts, diverticulitis, diverticulosis, inflammatory bowel disease, gall bladder disorders, gout, hypertension, irritable bowel syndrome, kidney stones, and rheumatoid arthritis. That’s what we know for certain. In emerging research (not yet conclusive), higher animal protein consumption is linked to poor mood, loss of mental concentration, and dementia.
This conclusion is supported by virtually every large-scale scientific study: massive efforts that followed thousands of people over many years in multiple countries around the globe. Study after study kept turning up the same types of correlations between animal protein, saturated fat, obesity, and chronic illness. When scientists compared people who ate meat with people
who didn’t, the meat eaters were heavier, sicker, and more likely to die sooner.

Who Took My Money? ... Thx Gary I of Xenos Christian Fellowship!
t Kennedy and Sergeant Shriver were the first ones to misuse the Social Security account. They used Social Security funds to start the Peace Corps. Not the first or last time our money has been taken from American citizens and given to foreign nations. Things every US citizen should know and remember about Social Security and changes made:A History Lesson on Your Social Security Card . . . Just in case some of you young whippersnappers (& some older ones) didn't know this. It's easy to check out, if you don't believe it. Be sure and show it to your family and friends . They need a little history lesson on what's what and it doesn't matter whether you are Democrat or Republican . . .Facts are FactsSocial Security Cards, until the 1980s, expressly stated that the number and card were NOT to be used for identification purposes. Because nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the message, NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION, was removed.Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program.He promised:1.) That participation in the program would be completely voluntary.No longer voluntary.2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual Incomes into the program.Now 7.65% on the first $90,000.3.) That the money the participants elected to put into the Program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year.No longer tax deductible4.) That the money the participants put into the independent 'Trust Fund' rather than into the general operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other government program.Under Democrat President Lyndon Johnson, the money was moved to the General Fund and Spent.5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.Under Democrats Clinton & Gore, up to 85% of your Social Security can be taxed.Because many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of the money we paid to the Federal government to 'put away' -- you may be interested in the following:Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the independent 'Trust Fund' and put it into the general fund so that Congress could spend it?A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the Democrat-controlled House and Senate.Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?A: The Democrat Party .Q: Which political party started taxing Social Security annuities?A: The Democrat Party. Al Gore cast the 'tie-breaking' deciding vote as President of the Senate while he was Vice President of the U.S.Q: Which political party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants?A: That's right! Jimmy Carter and the Democrat Party. Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The Democrat Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it!Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away!And the worst part about it is that uninformed citizens believe it!If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe changes will evolve.But it's worth a try.How many people can YOU send this to?Actions speak louder than bumper stickers.PLEASE DO KEEP THIS ONE ROLLING ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
