Ha yeah I don't take the word of places like NIH and Psych Forums.
And I never said hunting and gathering could feed more humans, I said it'd feed a healthy human population in a healthy ecosystem. Earth doesn't need billions of us.
I get that neither foraging nor the livestock industry can support the human appetite. But the pesticides, deforestation, genetic modification, and monocropping of agriculture can't support Earth. And a virus can't survive without a host.
If you genuinely feel healthy eating vegan, more power to ya. No one needs to justify not putting something in their own body. I lie and say I have a chitin intolerance to get out of eating arthropods, fish, and reptiles. But just know that until there are simply less humans, no diet is cruelty-free. So I eat what makes me strong for when Nature knocks us back to the Stone Age.
