you want a scientific answer? here's your scientific answer

anatomically our teeth including our molars are similar to those of horses, now do horses rip a cows ... apart and eat it up or do they graze on grass, carrots ie plants/vegetables,

similarly we arent designed to be carnivores nor omnivores only herbivores...dont believe me? look at your teeth and if they dont resemble a horses more than say a cheetahs then maybe you need to pay a visit to the orthodontist and consider braces.

A 10 year study of more than a half million U.S. men and women associates the frequency adults eat red and processed meats with significant increases in overall death, death from cancer, and cardiovascular disease.

The study, which features a cohort of about 322,000 men and 223,000 women (who answered questionnaires about food intake and health for a decade), suggests the consumption of red meat is independently associated with mortality.

The findings (recently published in the Archives of Internal Medicine) also suggest overall deaths, deaths from cancer, and cardiovascular diseases decline when adults eat less white meat (such as poultry, turkey, and canned tuna).

The study is based on the Diet and Health study sponsored by the National Institutes of Health and AARP (formerly known as the American Association of Retired Persons), which occurred between 1995-2005. An accompanying editorial in the Archives of Internal Medicine notes the large number of participants who voluntarily filled out surveys about their diet and health makes the study one of the most comprehensive ever – and adds new evidence that underscores medical counsel for adults to curb red and processed meat consumption.

The findings that associated eating red and processed meats with overall deaths, cancer deaths, and cardiovascular deaths occurred even after controlling for other health issues including:

* body mass

* smoking history

* physical activity

* alcohol consumption

* vitamin intake

* eating fruits and vegetables

* and menopausal hormone therapy among women participants.

To put this another way, the study provides a fresh context that the intake of otherwise beneficial foods and vitamins may not offset the health impacts of red and processed meats. In addition, the association between red and processed meats and mortality seems to occur in spite of other questionable health habits, such as smoking, overweight, and little physical activity.

Incidentally, about 70,000 of the original sample of more than one half million adults died during the ten year study.

The researchers defined red meat broadly including: beef and pork, ham, hotdogs, liver, and meats in foods such as pizza, chili, lasagna, and stew. Processed meats included: bacon, red meat sausage, poultry sausage, cold cuts, and luncheon meats.

It should be noted that mortality rates comparatively declined among the participants who less frequently ate red and processed meats. Nevertheless, overall and disease-specific mortality rates (regardless of frequency) still were significantly higher among red and processed meat eaters.

The study's five authors (who are from the National Cancer Institute) reported some mixed findings. They suggest a need to better understand some complex interactions, such as the comparative mortality risks among meat eaters who do not smoke their entire life – and associations among specific types of red and processed meats and mortality rates from other diseases.

In providing some perspective about the overall findings, the authors explain the increase in mortality might stem from issues, such as the saturated fats within meats – and the possibility that some carcinogens are released during cooking meat at high temperatures.

In the aforementioned editorial that accompanies the study, the author notes the research does not suggest all Americans should become vegans. Rather, the study suggests a need for adults to reduce the intake of meats and saturated fats.

The editorial also notes the findings suggest physicians should provide more public health leadership by encouraging Americans to eat a healthier diet.

i did a survey too. i took 150 dead people and 150 idiotic fundamentalists. now the fundamentalists all died but the dead people never...is that scientific proof? in our day and age there are so many new carcinogens that werent here before, and they cause increases in cancer. funny how most research doesnt show increases in stomach/bowel cancer among meat eaters. shouldnt that be the case?

if this is the level of scientific understanding in the panth today then i'm just not going to bother anymore. and no, no one asked for a scientific answer.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
