When someone asked me why eating animals is "so bad"

When someone asked me why the consumption of animals & their byproducts is "so bad" this is how I replied. The discussion was much longer but I thought I'd share a reply to a question I get asked a lot.

"I agree. I think watching What the Health will provide great information for you on this topic. If I start, I'll go on forever. Best to just research it yourself. It's hard to unlearn what we have been conditioned to think but there came a time in my life when the lightbulb went off and I saw no difference between eating a pig and eating a dog. With enough education, I also realized how gross it was to eat chicken periods (eggs), drink breastmilk from another species (especially curdled breastmilk (cheese) and eat dead flesh. I value myself more than feeding it with dead things. I value my energy and sacred space enough to not consume energy from a being that was tortured its whole life. There's so much to say but at the end of the day, everyone's journey is their own and I do not judge you or anyone for living a different lifestyle than I do. However, ignorance is not bliss and If you continue to live the lifestyle you do, I think it is important for you to at least know what you're doing to your body. Sidenote: Doctor's do not study nutrition in medical school. So be careful who you listen to, they're a lot better at giving you medications once there's already a problem. Preventative medicine is nutrition. The solutions are in nutrition. Peace & Love."
