I struggle with the meat issue as well. I was Vegan for almost a year awhile ago, and when I went back on meat I noticed a surge in wellbeing and energy. I may had a non optimal vegan diet though. Mark Passio says you will fail if you aren't juicing your vegetables.
I currently think vegetarianism is the best alternative since you can get some critical nutrients from eggs and energy from butter. I do recognize that those industries mistreat their animals, but there are ethical options and we can push even the best of those options to improve by voting with our currency.
Here is a question I struggle with:
If it's wrong to slay an animal for food, why is it fine to slay a plant?
Max heindel’s Rosicrutian Cosmo Conception satisfied my questions about animals vs plants for food... a lot for me is regarding how animals are raised. If I was hunting or had a farm myself it would be a different story...cuz then I would have that experience of asking God and the animal for the animal’s life for mine - but I don’t have that option... you felt physically better on meat? I will see how it is for me.
I felt better physically and energetically by a huge amount. I do suspect I could have achieved those same effects (or close) by just adding back in pastured eggs and grass fed butter.
Thank you for the Heindall reference.
