Guest guest Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 Leonard, Interestingly enough, in spite of the healing properties you allude to in lentils, these cause problems for those who unknowingly have an intolerance to the gluten component. Love my lentil dishes but oh boy will it flare up fibromyalgia, not funny. The point I'm trying to make here is: many foods have healing properties but what works for one may not be a good choice for someone else. Some foods are best to be left alone by everyone like soy,GMO foods, most if not all processed foods. Make a choice of what is available then and consume what agrees with your body.

It would be difficult because one of the most important nutrients is vitamin B12, and the co-factors that help your body utilize it are only found in red meats. See this article: Myth #2: Vitamin B12: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/foods33.php The best to you, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Bee, what are these " co-factors " that are in red meat and not in fish or eggs. Everyone encourages the use of your egg drink so much, your comment below now confuses me and the article you reference does not saying anything about co-factors. Could you elaborate?

Jo ==>Hi Jo, this is a great article from which I got the following information: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/meat2.php " Is beef good for you? What a shame we have demonized red meat because this is one modern food, enjoyed by almost everybody, that is rich in nutrients. Red meat provides complete protein, including sulphur-containing proteins like cysteine. Beef is a wonderful source of taurine and carnitine, needed for healthy eyes and a healthy heart. Beef also provides another key nutrient for the cardiovascular system—coenzyme Q10. Beef is an excellent source of minerals like magnesium and zinc—you need zinc for clear thinking and a healthy sex life. The fuzzy- headedness that vegetarians mistake for heightened consciousness is really the fog of zinc deficiency. Vitamin B6 is abundant in meat, especially rare meat. Red meat is one of the best sources of vitamin B12, which is vital to a healthy nervous system and healthy blood. Vegetarians are especially prone to vitamin B12 deficiency. One of the first signs of vitamin B12 deficiency is a tendency to irrational anger-—so much for vegetarian claims that we will have a more peaceful, harmonious world if we all just stop eating meat. If you use the animal bones and hooves to make stock, and use the stock as our ancestors did in soups, stews and sauces, you will get plenty of calcium and the components of cartilage to give you healthy bones and cartilage. If you eat organ meats, as our ancestors did, you will get vital fat- soluble nutrients like vitamin A and D, both of which are essential for protein utilization and mineral absorption.
