RAINRA Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 why is there so much bad press. How much of this is trying to persuade people away from the meat industry and how much is fact. http://products.mercola.com/inner-circle/?source=nl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Im Your Man Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 They just want people to be carnivores. In the video she doesn't say that Asians have less heart diseases and cancers because they eat less meat, instead of this she said it's maybe because they don't eat too much soy. Ridiculous.

beforewisdom Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Mercola has a reputation for being an anti-vegetarian crank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuc Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Check what Wikipedia has to say about Mercola. He's a nutcase, and not in a positive manner. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Mercola Using microwave oven to cook your food is dangerous? Yeah, right. It's just the same as using a conventional oven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Im Your Man Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I'm not for microwave and it's certainly not worse than barbecue grills but "he claims that raw milk is one of the finest sources of protein and calcium available". Yeah, for baby cows. For humans, it's the best way to developp osteoporisis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeganEssentials Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Yeah, don't take too much stock in what Mercola says. That guy's got some pretty off-the-mark views on some things. That, and always beware of people coming off as experts who have something of their own to sell you that just happens to coincide with their theories, just like Mercola who wants you to spend $25/month to join and find out all the "secrets" that he can share with you on how to be healthy with his wacky theories.

Marcina Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I'm not for microwave and it's certainly not worse than barbecue grills but "he claims that raw milk is one of the finest sources of protein and calcium available". Yeah, for baby cows. For humans, it's the best way to developp osteoporisis Raw unpasteurized milk really shouldn't be consumed by humans. There are so many illnesses you get from it... Thrush, listeria, gastroenteritis.. And other nasty things. In my opinion, if you have to cook the shit out of something for it to be edible, you shouldn't be eating it in the first place!!

There will always be snake oil pushers making a fortune off of fear and infirmities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
