Re: Reason why pigs pigs aren't the healthiest meat to eat.

Out of my pigs hooves, no. And what makes you think that the pus coming

out from around their hooves isn't their means of pushing toxins out? We

push toxins out our sweat glands, so just because they don't have sweat

glands doesn't mean that they too don't have a way to push toxins out.

That also is a possibility of an infection and should be addressed.

Humans are toxic as well. Hence Liver Cleanses, and Colon flushes and

blah blah blah.. it goes on and on and on. Any animal can be toxic and

hold it in it's body. Do you eat horse meat? And then there are Mule

Foot hogs... Check them out they have solid hooves like a horse rather

than split toes.

Chickens and Guineas eat poisonous snakes as well.

Nope, no experience with snake bites. However, here are some personal

experiences of people whose pigs were bitten by snakes.

http://www.thepigsite.com/forums/showthread.php?t=152

One sounds like the pig shed it's ENTIRE HIDE to survive! NASTY! That's

also a detoxification by the way. Otherwise, other people found them dead.

And to research just type in " pigs snake bites " into google. It's pretty

easy. It's hard to discount a forum with multiple people sharing their

experiences.

Sally is uncertain by the sounds of it. I find it a little confusing

that she pushes lard so very very hard but not using the meat. I'm not

about to toss an entire animal just for the fat, that is horribly

wasteful. She also admits that she consumes pork. It sounds like, once

again, Western culture doesn't know how to properly prepare the meat

just like many other things and soybeans is a really really good example.

Neither have only consumed those meats. They've never really been able

to. Here's another oddity, my friend who's allergic to chicken also

can't drink full fat goat milk but she can drink full fat Jersey milk

but not other breeds. So if you can explain that one, she's appreciate

it. The best I can figure is the fat in the Jersey cows milk has larger

fat globules so it slows her digestion down enough for her to actually

digest it.

lol That's an awfully bold statement.

" Yeah, the ignorant poor cultures that aren't as good off and most

likely haven't developed a complex fundamental structure for even eating. "

<<<You may want to research that before stating something as stupid as

that. I do not consider the Chinese, whom developed the quite complex

Eastern medicine, to be ignorant nor poor. In many countries it's

considered a delicacy even by the wealthy. The Aztecs raised them for

meat (granted they also performed human sacrifice) but they developed a

very complex culture and historians and archaeologists have barely

scratched the surface for what that culture accomplished. These are only

two cultures. Please, next time take the time to read before you state

something as silly as that. However, much of the dog eating is stopping

due to the influence of western culture.>>>>>>>

I wonder what age of the Chinese you are talking about.  In recent times they

are one of the biggest examples of what can go wrong with a country.  Huge

population of poor, over populated, oppressive government, polution, waste, far

worse in that category than America or any other country.  Behind in every way. 

Perhaps they did have one of the most advanced Governments centuries if not

millenia ago, but not in recent times.  Not knowing my history too well I'll

guess either it's the poor that eat dogs or it is the modern inferior government

officials that eat it.

Aztecs may have had interesting particularly advanced skills, but as a whole

culture they were very primitive.  Unlike some Native Indian cultures I can't

say there is any personal attributes of an aztec individual I would admire in

particular.  In my opinion they are a terrible example of a culture at that,

where there are the people at top who get all the meat while most of the

population lived meagerly.  I would not want to be an aztec living in those

days.

Mark McAfee of organic pastures recommends taking in raw yogurt more often in

order to build up you enzyme and probiotic stores.  This helps consume raw milk

I'm going to side with Enig.  That's my preference.  It's mostly her

recommendation against eating pig.  While I do eat pig, I don't believe it's

particularly healthy.  There's a lot worse things you could do, and if you

consume pastured pig it's far better than consuming anything from the

supermarket.

Interesting. Another great illustration of the problem of confusing

biology with primitive religious beliefs.

Didn't God create everything and declare that it was good?

Not that anything written in the OT matters one whit to me. I'm here

for the nutrition science. :-)

Some pretty advanced ancient civilizations ate dog, including the elite

classes (especially the elite?). The Chinese and the Mayans or Aztecs and I

am sure there are many more.

<<<Perhaps it depends on the society. Pigs were kept in cities and cleaned

Eating human flesh may actually be good for people. Strangely enough

whenever an aborigne would die the others would dig up the corpse after a

couple days and eat it. They aren't sick people, they are considered very

wise and kind. But they ate human flesh whenever they got the chance. It

may not be healthy to eat modern people that follow Standard American Diet.

I've heard of a princess or queen that would eat young women and was very

youthful looking up to her 50s until she was persecuted from it centuries

ago.

<<<Dogs also clean up a lot of waste and carrion and in many cultures are

Yeah, the ignorant poor cultures that aren't as good off and most likely

haven't developed a complex fundamental structure for even eating.

Right on, Bill. Learning about the " soil-food web " taught me that one

species' waste is another species' dinner. There's undigested protein

and other nutrients in every animal's poop that other species, whether

animal or insect, can make use of. Digestion is what it's all about! :-)

Rabbits re-eat their feces, the first time doesn't digest it well enough I

Sally doesn't say that much about pork in NT, and I could find no pork

recipes in the index. However, she sings the praises of lard. On pork,

from page 32 of the introduction, she says:

" Investigation into the effects of pork consumption on blood chemistry

has revealed serious changes for several hours after pork is consumed.

(footnote 117) The pork used was organic, free of trichinosis, so the

changes that occurred in the blood were due to some other factor,

possibly a protein unique to pork. In the laboratory, pork is one of

the best mediums for feeding the growth on cancer cells. [and here I

thought it was sugar!] The prohibitions against pork found in the

Bible and the Koran thus may derive from something other than a

concern for parasite contamination. However, in fairness it must be

noted that many groups noted for longevity, such as the inhabitants of

Soviet Georgia and Okinawa, consume pork meat and lard in their diet

on a daily basis. Lard is an excellent source of vitamin D. " On p.18

she write more about lard. While she raises the possibility there are

problems with pork, it doesn't extend to pork fat, and she does point

out those healthy cultures that rely on pork. So, no, she doesn't say

one shouldn't eat pork.

The only other mention of pork in NT, according to the subject index,

is on p. 61 where she discusses macrobiotics and how, in that dietary

scheme, pork is considered the most yang of meats. That's it.

And my dogs, being natural scavengers, would gladly eat the feces of

just about any species they come across (deer, rodents, other dogs) if

I let them. I don't, just in case there are parasitic worms in there

and because I don't like to be kissed by potty-mouthed dogs (but I do

let my dogs lick my face, yes), not because I think it's bad for them.

My dogs have been found scavenging in my cats' litter box, too. Why

this tastes yummy to dogs, I don't know, but it does. I also don't

want them to get in the habit of eating any old thing they find on the

ground, as there are people who leave out poisoned food to get rid of

skunks and/or their neighbors' dogs.

I don't know about other animals, but dogs and horses eat their feces looking

for the digestive aids that are in them. Horses will poop in their water as a

self-medicating probiotic. They are trying to get the good gut flora going the

only way they can!

Since I started feeding raw, my dogs don't eat poop anymore.

I found mine did the litter box chocolates less if I gave them good

probiotics. Also if you feed the cats probiotics and grain free/articifical

flavor/preservative free foods. ie Raw. Then they have no interest in it.

The system of Traditional Chinese Medicine I'm familiar with

http://www.healingthesource.com/

says pork is very cooling, i.e., yin. The hardcore yang meat in that system is

lamb.

I'm not speaking for TCM, that's just what I read in NT. I am formerly

macrobiotic, took cooking classes at the Ohsawa Center in Tokyo, and

my experience was they don't really encourage meat eating, though it's

not explicitly forbidden. All I know is, I got very sick following

that way of eating, though I think some of it is probably useful if

balanced by the insights from WAP.

I looked up 117, it sites personal communication from a Doctor who did a

preliminary investigation for study (never conducted) in Brazil. Two

important factors:

1. organic != free range. These could have been confinement or dirt

lot pigs. and

2. We don't know what they were fed. Reactions to food can often be

due to what the animal consumed, this is true of not just pork but all

meat and dairy. I don't know how pork production is down there but they

do use soybeans and GMO soybeans are now available down there. Since

most pig production is problematic it is likely this was a pig diet issue.

If you don't know, why do you speak? This is stunningly ignorant, I'm sorry,

that's all you can say about it. First of all, if you are going to distinguish

primitive from advanced/civilized, then the class distinctions and oppressive

government are on the civilized side. That's what comes with an advanced

society. The Chinese were more advanced than the West until a few centuries ago

and most observers expect them to surpass the West again soon--the extreme

social change they are experiencing is part of the most massive industrial

revolution ever. Like that begun in England, it's not a pretty thing, but it

definitely transforms a society politically, economically, socially, and

technologically.

Why do you presume that Chinese " government officials " are eating dogs? Really?

You think it is a plot, rather than a different cultural tradition regarding

acceptable food? I don't like it--I'm a dog person--but by what twisted internet

mythology do you intend to justify it as an irrational food choice?

As for the Aztecs, you once again confound the distinction primitive/advanced

with whether the culture (or the individuals) are admirable in some sense. You

can't imply that the Aztecs were backward because they were brutal. If anything,

their brutality comes from the advanced nature of their civilization, compared

to which most Native Americans were primarily hunter gatherers.

I'm very grateful for Sally Fallon's work in bringing together information about

the value of traditional diets. Her comments on pork do not make a lot of sense

here. " Serious changes " in blood chemistry?--what does that even mean? Can you

just look at blood under a microscope and see " serious changes " and know that

they are bad? Are cancer researchers putting pork into their petri dishes to

grow cancer cells? For real? I wish there was a lot less of this kind of

bizarre, unsubstantiated rumor-mongering and posting of random internet

conspiracy theories in the traditional foods community.

I know enough to say it appears that countries that are currently behind also

happen to be eating dogs.  Aztecs may have had some advanced skills, but as a

whole culture and even the way the government was ran was primitive.  Especially

in their agriculture they were way behind.

Now I don't know much about China when it had a benevolent soveriegn.  I don't

buy alot of this yin yang crap.  There is some truth to it but a lot of it

sounds like a lot of pseudo science.  I won't argue with Taoism or acupuncture,

but what I've read of the yin and yang to food I don't buy.  Modern China is

given way too much credit.  If there citizens have better health than ours it's

because they're too poor to afford cake and their into traditional cooking which

tends to be much healthier than our fast food society.  Their healthcare system

is probably a joke so they have to be more conscious of taking care of

themselves.

Apparently she doesn't want to go into further detail with the research because

it will open up too much debate with the people that farm pigs in the WAPF

community.  It's wise that she does recommend to avoid it if you are sick or

healing.  Pigs are an essential part to the American diet and they do contain

good health benefits like being easier to digest than other meats and the fat

behind high in vitamin D in pastured pig.  People love bacon, pork chops, and

sausage.
