Vegetarians live longer? Rubbish.

Much ado is made about vegetarians having a lower all-cause mortality or CHD mortality than non-vegetarians. Suffice it to say, this is all unfounded. No randomized controlled trial has ever been conducted comparing meat-eaters with vegetarians, so on what grounds do people conclude that meat is causally associated with disease? There is none, any argument for the superiority of a vegetarian dietary regimen is unsubstantiated. In this article, I systemically assess the literature we have so far and debunk the much propagated myth that vegetarians live longer than omnivores .

What you need to know about MILK

Hey, so I revisited my post on milk and decided to change a few things. The end result is a much shorter, more fully referenced article that is just better to read in totality. If you haven't read it I strongly suggest you do so. Peace.
