I have an extremely simple solution for this made-up problem : Just don't eat meat ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
What are you, a tiger ? No ? Then why do you put yourself through this, when it only makes you sicker the more you do it ?
Humans are not herbivores. There are a lot of good social and ethical reasons to not eat meat, this is not one of them.
Humans may not be obligate herbivores ; nonetheless eating meat invariably hurts us in the short and long term.
Meet is like alcohol, you can get your calories from booze ; but why would you inflict that upon yourself ?
Eating meat is only deleterious. You may be able to stave off the visible consequences for a while, but make no mistake, it is eating you from the inside.
We were not meant to feed upon murder.
Proof ? Vegans are the only human group to be consistently healthy and long lived. We are exempt from many illnesses considered nigh-inevitable, even when genetically predisposed.
Bold of you to assume Iโm not happily getting plenty of calories from alcohol, especially the past 15ish months
Shut up.
