TIME: Sorry Vegans, Meat Made Us Human Response
Рет қаралды 190,015
Күн бұрынTime Magazine is pushing meat again and now hypocritically calling Veganism a counterfactual crusade. So the battle of starch vs. meat in brain evolution ensues.

Buds420King Average doesn't mean good or healthy. I mean look at the U.S. now, they are on a standard American diet and 2 in 3 adults are overweight or obese. And as for restricting meat is the best thing to do, I don't know if you realize everyone is trying that, but the population is fatter then it ever has been. When your vegan you don't have to restrict food, or at least carbs, so you don't have to deprive yourself and think about food 24/7.

Stewart Bright I do non-competitive powerlifting sometimes which requires a lot of protein.

Whey protein powder, eggs, and fish are much easier to assimilate

Obviously you know you can get all the protein you need to be a non-competitive powerlifter so that isn't really an issue.. I'm unsure of your digestive issues you have.. Could you please elaborate? I am aware that going vegan can change digestion due to a lot higher fibre intake but I'm also aware that after a while your body becomes used to the high fibre and digestive issues no longer prevail

@mdouble100 8 жыл бұрын
As a committed vegan, I find your arguments are compelling and well supported by a massive amount of research. I think the Time article is based on the conjecture and assumptions and research designed to support theories as opposed to being derived from direct evidence. There is yet another point, not often made in the debate about meat and brain development. This simple point goes directly against the idea that eating meat makes for a big brain theory. If the protein and fat from meat stimulated brain growth, then true carnivores would have massive brains and the data processing speed of a supercomputer. However it seems to be we starch eating homosapians have the biggest brains and highest IQ's - although IQ alone doesn't seem to matter considering the often flawed logic we seem to follow.

Cooking and agriculture resulted in the biggest jumps in our elocution when it comes to diet. Cooked food was easier to digest, needed less energy for better nutrient absorption while agriculture meant a more reliable food source. Most common people didn't eat that much meat until after the 2nd world war. It used to be a luxury, reserved for special occasions (hence the idea of a Sunday roast) and the aristocracy. That's why the pales diet is wrong if you look at it historically, as is the raw vegan diet.

I think his points are good but not quite nuanced enough. There is energy, which needed to "power" the brain. But that does not drive intelligence per se. You need Vit B12 for example for neurotransmission. So it's probably the vitamins in meat that made us smarter, not necessarily what powered the brain terms of fuel. Think of it this way - starches were like the power that a computer needs to run, but the cooked meat help enhance the coding / algorithms, ie it made us smarter.

+Julie Tiko Crow A problem regarding soy is the protein content, which is more similar to meat protein than most other plants.

+Stephanie Stiller I agree with you. Individually a person is good, I always believe that, but we don't always act upon our values and meat eating is one example of that. And since most people eat meat, it makes human kind, as a whole, evil in the planet's and its creatures point of view. We are also destroying our own species' future by polluting earth. I'm also contributing to that with my own selfishness but I try to minimise that and being a vegan is a key part of that.

I think you should've answered this question (Did meat play an important role on our evolution?) with an explanation about why it isn't even important or relevant to veganism. If we consumed meat in the past to survive or not isn't important, since we don't need to do it anymore and animal agriculture is an activity that is destroying our forests, poluting our air and oceans and causing needless suffering. Discussing wether our brains grew thanks to meat or potatoes is a waste of time. We should be concerned about our future, not our past.

goku Of course not, but I wasn’t talking about the ethics of it, I was talking about the science of it. Also, some people do still need to eat meat, or at least animal products. So it is necessary for some people.

Hey man love the bit about the young blood. I went Vegan for health reasons at the age of 40 and felt that my body just reversed everything, I could run and recover better then I could ever remember. It is easy to see that even though there is little change in my activity levels I am lighter happier and can play for hours with my son, far longer then other Dad's I see that are at least 10 years younger. Before going Vegan I was not looking forward to the rest of my life as it was all hard work, now I say bring it on baby!!! its all cool man! :) Your videos are great man, I tend to lead by example as I find this is the best way for most people to come around to the Vegan way but if I get any sci-ency types I will send them in the direction of your videos man. Dyl :)

My brother and I have been strict vegans for about 6 months now. We went on vacation with our parents and at a fancy dinner we decided to cheat and order some meat. We were shaking in a cold sweat later with our stomachs doing flips. The rest of the week, my mom started eating mostly vegetarian. She saw first hand what meat does to you if you aren't use to eating it. As miserable as it was, I think it was worth it for her to finally second guess her diet.

I'm sorry you had that experience. It's common when you can't control everything you eat...and it's not a 'treat' that people think it is. It's pretty miserable to deviate from the course when you are whole food plant based! SOOOO worth it! I'm glad your mom is a convert now at least!

My honest opinion is that after excluding a food group for a long time, your gut microbiome adjusts to your new diet, which makes it difficult to readjust to your diet. This can apply to meat and plants.

I don't get why people take jabs at vegans. That sounds like they feel threatened by vegans. I don't care if vegans took a jab at meat eaters first, it doesn't justify doing the same thing back. That's just lowering yourself to their level and making you look immature, ultimately letting them win.

Our body creates its own glucose though in the absence of us eating carbs through gluconeogenisis, so technically our body can run on ketones and the brain can use up to 30% ketones then through gluconeogenisis our brain is fully fuelled.

My mother was born on a farm on the shores of the Firth of Forth , in Scotland. Near the water was what was called the Shelly Bank. It was a massive stretch of cockle and other sea shells - not a natural phenomenon , but an accumulation from many hundreds of years if not a thousand years of marine animal consumption , with the shells being discarded in a gigantic midden that existed for thousands of years thereafter.

That argument never flies with me. We did rely on the proteins from meat to help us evolve and hunting helped us expand across the world. However, we are now cognizant of other animal's emotions AND have other options for protein and can be even healthier without meat. Human ancestors didn't wear shoes, but so what? We adapt as we learn, THIS is what kept us thriving as a species.

Although, the natives who lived there have been cultivating potatoes for thousands of years before the first arrival of the Europeans, it was this arrival that actually led to its introduction to the Europeans.

Once again a great video Mic! You are one of the very few youtubers that actually does proper research instead of just rehashing what they read in a book of one of the 4 vegan doctors. p.s. something went wrong with one of your source links. The one below 'Starch is 20x more digestible cooked and other facts:' has a bunch of weird text below it instead of the link.

Hey Mic! Can you do a video on the difference between a meat and dairy farm compared to a vegetable farm. Or how cotton is collected? My roommate says that even though we're eating veggies we are still killing insects under the plants. Or same when collecting the cotton. I think it's bogus! But I knew you could come up with a reasonable answer. Thanks Mic! Hands Down my favorite channel!! I know I can always use your resources to share! -Remy
@natalietannerblogger-theed9419 Жыл бұрын
We might be killing insects accidentally or on purpose for crops like cotton. That is no reason to kill yourself by eating animals and 'killing insects under plants' is really not a reason to breed and farm animals to kill them for food.
