Broken link “Does Meat Rot In Your Colon? No. What Does? Beans, Grains, and Vegetables!” by J. Stanton

Perhaps a page listing practitioners of medicine who used to recommend anti-meat diet?

Like this,

Looking back I think there were many factors that shaped my previously held stance on nutrition.  I believe my education set me up to be susceptible to a plant-based diet.  I was educated that too much red meat is not good. I was educated to value fruits and vegetables over meat.  With this mind set, I was predisposed into believing red meat was bad for me and that the only animal protein (if any) I should eat was chicken and fish.  I became further disgusted by red meat through documentaries and books with a vegan agenda.  Red meat causes climate change, red meat decreases our life expectancy, red meat is morally bad.  This pushed me further away from red meat and meat in general. I became more focused on this ideology of health rather than listening to my own body. Without me even realizing it, I began to shape my identity around a plant-based diet.  It was really hard for me to break up with this idea of what I thought was healthy and it took me months of self-education to open up my eyes. https://jilliansnutritionnook.com/plant-based-to-meat-based-a-dietitians-story/

@bitstein: any plan to allow visitor to submit a link? to remove friction with non-coders

Response to this?

Studies on the Inuit and Masai are commonly cited, but they generally either are flawed or don't show what people think. The Inuit had similar health problems to westerners, apparently. And while the Masai didn't tend to suffer heart attacks, they did have hardened arteries -- it was just that their extremely high levels of physical activity granted them wider arteries that didn't get blocked so easily.

There is a lot of information out there on salt and electrolytes electrolyte intake. It would be great to have a new wiki page bringing all the different arguments and evidence together.

This may be worth adding to the wiki. Otherwise feel free to close it.

From the 18th century:

Fordyce was an eccentric, who ate only one meal of meat a day at the same hour in the same place. He would always eat a pound and a half of rump steak and whilst this was being prepared, half a broiled chicken or plate of fish. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=George_Fordyce&oldid=939362768#Dining_habits

The guy lived till 65.

Would be great to create a section debunking all the questions and statements like:

• What about cholesterol?
• Eating mostly meat is bad for the planet
• ...

In this case it would be the Nenet paradox. The Nenets, the indigenous reindeer-herding people of this part of Siberia, have a menu that sounds like just the opposite of what the doctor ordered: They eat reindeer meat, most of it raw and frozen. From September to May they eat very little else, apart from the odd piece of raw, preferably frozen, fish. One would think that this extreme protein- and fat-driven diet would lead to a lot of health problems -- obesity, cardiovascular diseases -- but the opposite is true.

"It is my experience that the further away you come from the city centers of the Arctic, the healthier people look," says Lars Kullerud, president of the University of the Arctic, a network of more than 100 universities and colleges. He researches the diets of the region's indigenous people.
