Flesh Meat Eating Is Dangerous To Health
Flesh meat eating is dangerous to health. It brings a host of diseases that have been the cause of death of so many people.
Flesh meats of infected animals are carriers of diseases. Tuberculosis, pneumonia, flu, tumors, cancer, and other diseases are transmitted to humans through flesh meat eating. Flesh meat eating increases the incidence of catching diseases tenfold.
One type of disease that is transmitted to humans through flesh meat eating is the dreadful prion protein disease. It is incurable and takes its victim’s life within months.
Prion protein disease in animals is caused by feeds that are contaminated with dead animals. Feeds that are given to cattle and fowls are mixed with powdered carcasses of sheep, deer, dogs, cows, and other animals. This is the cause of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) or mad cow disease that started the transmission of prion diseases to humans, cattle, fowls and other animals.
This prion disease has been transmitted to humans through consumption of beef from cows infected with BSE. This prion disease in man is called Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD). Besides BSE and CJD, there are many more prion diseases that have already been identified such as fatal familial insomnia (FFI), Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker Syndrome (GSS), kuru, chronic wasting disease (CWD), scrapie, variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD), and Alpers’ Syndrome in infants.
Even eating flesh meats from healthy animals are no longer safe. Besides the feeds mixed with carcasses of animals, fowls are injected with chemicals to increase their weights, and cows are injected with recombitant bovine growth hormone (rBGH) to increase milk production.
Recombitant bovine growth hormone is the synthetic form of bovine growth hormone or somatotropin that is normally produced in the pituitary glands of cattle. It is produced in laboratories through recombitant DNA technology commonly known as genetic engineering or genetic modification used to produce Genetically Modified Organism (GMO).
This genetically modified bovine growth hormone is injected to cows to prevent the death of mammary cells in order to continuously produce milk. But cows injected with this synthetic growth hormone develop mastitis, and the bacteria that are resistant to the antibiotics used to treat this painful udder infection are carried to humans through beef, milk and other dairy product consumption.
It was also found that milk from cows treated with recombitant bovine growth hormone have high levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), a hormone considered to be a high risk factor for breast, colon, lung, prostate, and other cancers. IGF-1 also increases fraternal twin births.
Flesh meat eating is dangerous to health. Flesh meat contains a stress hormone called 17-hydroxycorticosteroid that blocks neurotransmitters to the brain. A carcinogenic substance called methylcholantrene is also produced when the fat in meat is superheated during cooking or broiling. Benzopyrene is produced during broiling of meat, and this causes stomach tumors and leukemia.
Flesh meat eating is dangerous to health. Besides the mad cow disease and other incurable prion diseases, the GMO recombitant bovine growth hormone, the IGF-1 that causes lot of cancers, and other toxic and carcinogenic substances in flesh meats, it also contains preservatives, feed additives and other toxic chemicals that are detrimental to our health.
