Most people don't realize this mucus substance sticks to your belly and overtime builds up while the toxins leech into the rest of your body. If you eat lots of fiber it's not such a bad thing because it will flush out but without that meat and cheese equals a very highly acidic body prone to disease.

Not to mention that the specific enzymes needed to break down animal proteins are the same enzymes that are needed to break down the protein coatings on cancer cells, which are then exposed to blood cells that can destroy them. These enzymes are created in very limited amounts by the pancreas. So too much meat and cheese means a higher risk of cancer, throw in the amount of carcinogens in a grilled piece of meat and you have the perfect recipe for disaster. Pun intended.


Derp!

I eat meat, but I also love eating vegetarian. Vegetarian dishes can be delicious for someone who knows what they're doing, so I don't know what you ate at that meeting. People who don't know how to cook and become vegetarians make their food taste even more terrible.

When I saw the thread title I thought to myself "what's wrong with cured meats?"

What I don't understand is why you believe your friend should start eating meat again, and why it matters to you. I don't consider myself a vegetarian but I eat like one, and aside from slower muscle gain, I feel much better health-wise. The fact that she may be holding an unreasonable fear is something I'd be concerned with, but that has more to do with her thought process rather than the consequence. In other words, the issue isn't so much that she's stopped eating meat, but rather what happened, and would this lead to other irrational fears that would impact other aspects of her life?
