Edit, I found my reseearch papers and I will write up an article. I just found out over 2 billion people are iron deficient, a study done by WHO....
Your Mom was right and I was was wrong about iron...nonheme iron is difficult to absorb and I will write a paper on this...
Men don't need that much iron so for you and me, a post menopausal woman getting enough iron is not a big deal!
Ill get the data for you, And also there has never been a pure vegan society...and vitamin c is needed in greater quantities if eating a high carb diet, your Mom was spot on with that...
But there are worse things than disagreeing about diet regarding the articles topic like hating meat eaters or vegans just because of ideology...like telling meat eaters or hunters they are going to Buddhist hell....lololol
I totally agree that ideology sucks. We never shoved our choices down peoples throats. My parents did it for health reasons as they were worried about preservatives and hormones in processed meat. After a while they just felt better and would never go back. My Mum was smart enough to research and do it properly. And that was the 70s, before online research was possible! Im glad you discovered some new information to adjust your thinking. Love these steemit conversations!!! And thanks again for this fabulous Steemit article. I wpuld resteem but i cant handle the picture of a bbq on my feed 🤗🤗❤❤
I posted meat pictures to see if I could catch any vegans or vegetarians ....it was bait....thank you for your lovely discussion with me and I love your Mum!
I enjoyed it too! Yeah Im proud of Mums intelligence and resourcefulness.. I learnt alot about nutrition from her.
