Do elaborate.
If you're going to start with Denise Minger, the other hack who was caught lying/contradicting herself or any other shills for the meat and dairy industry save yourself the effort. Edit: Better yet, redirect the effort to google, and see what vegan athletes have to say.
Meanwhile, I'll continue enjoying my increased vitality, high energy level, and not getting sick... not that it doesn't totally suck feeling good all the time.
I've read the study and pieces of the book......
for one, the china study is an observational study. Observational studies are used for building a hypothesis that is then tested. It is NOT supposed to be taken as fact.
Multiple times throughout the book the author mixes up complex carbs with simple carbs. How do you do that? Someone that is supposed to be an authority can't even get that right?
The entire study consists of cherry picked correlations, but no hard facts.
The "study" itself took up maybe a chapter or two of the entire book. The rest was bullocks mixed with circumstantial studies that were performed on rats.
A quick google search found these gems......
“There are virtually no nutrients in animal-based foods that are not better provided by plants” (p. 213) hahaha yeah B-vitamins, proteins, and zinc are useless.
"Vitamin D deficiency is caused by eating dairy products and too much animal protein." This is literally made up information. Nowhere will you find info to support this.
The author states that breast cancer is associated with dietary fat. Again, this is laughable as there are COUNTLESS studies that debunk this.
Even the "correlations" are assbackwards as they showed that plant proteins correlate more with cancer than animal protein, but somehow meat is bad? WUT?
These are just a few of the fallacies that are in this "study". Also, Minger did a great job of breaking down all of the fuck ups that the hack Campbell made. On her blog she posted the debate between her and Campbell. Campbell pretty much contradicted his own info and made himself look like a boob.
Let me ask you one question. Since you are a vegan, where do you get your B-Vitamins? They are essential for life you know.
