Don’t Expose the Carnivorous Fangs
In nature, herbivores tend to live longer than carnivorous animals. Plants
containing protein and nutrients are far more than meat. In country where most of the
consumption of meat, disease rate is high, such as heart disease, cancer and infectious
diseases, but different countries have much lower incidence of vegetarians. In modern
society, a vegetarian also no longer is the habit of religious believers, many atheists
for the sake of his health began to vegetarian.
So the question is why the morbidity and mortality of carnivores is higher than
vegetarians.
Firstly, there is full of fear when animals in slaughterhouse. As a result, chemical
equilibrium of their body will change dramatically, their body would release huge
amount of adrenaline. Other than that, after the animal was killed, the protein in the
body would produce autolysis enzyme. These chemical toxins would accumulated in
our body as we consume the meat, over time, it would cause of disease and even
death. And scientists have proved that animals have emotional feelings, Process of
slaughtered animals, terror, grief and resentment sets in as one, to see the other
animals death, oneself also struggle in vain, hormones in the blood – especially the
2
adrenaline secretion in hyperthyroidism, so a lot of hormones and toxin would remain
in the meat, with the accelerate blood circulation, the whole body will be full of
poisonous elements.
In addition, not just within the animal body secretion of toxins cause fear, also
have artificial add carcinogens. When body of animals exposed in the air for a long
time, the color of the meat turns to morbid caesious. Some butchers will process the
bodies with nitrate to keep the color in bright red, let customers have more desire to
purchase. However, scientific research pointed out that all these things contain
carcinogens. So again, when people consume meat for a long time toxins would
accumulated result in disease and death.
