Text Evidence
•Julie Deardoff said "In general, eating foods that contain saturated fats raises the level of cholesterol in the blood, and high levels of LDL cholesterol increase the risk of heart disease and stroke." She is showing that this diet is a risk of death
•Jennifer Preyss said "About 2 billion people worldwide live on a meat-based diet, which is consumed in great quantities in wealthy countries like the United States, Britain and Australia." She is showing that diets with meat are more healthier.
•Tim Holcomb said "a chiropractic neurologist and nutritionist in Victoria, also encourages his clients to include lean meat in the diet, which offers essential B vitamins, especially B12, as well as essential enzymes and proteins for strong bones, healthy skin and blood." He is saying that meat diets give you a better health than a vegan diet.
•"Some people are more genetically able to get their protein from plants, but you have to be careful," Holcomb said. "And even then, you run the risk of B12 deficiency." He is saying that you still need b12.
