Title: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: Bocephus on July 02, 2009, 11:15:31 AM "SYDNEY (AFP) People who live on vegetarian diets have slightly weaker bones than their meat-eating counterparts, Australian researchers said Thursday.
A joint Australian-Vietnamese study of links between the bones and diet of more than 2,700 people found that vegetarians had bones five percent less dense than meat-eaters, said lead researcher Tuan Nguyen."

Then on the other hand if they had big bones, Well, blow me down, they might have to eat their spinach. ::eatingpopcorn: In Jesus' name - larry2 Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: gdr19 on July 02, 2009, 11:28:22 PM Yesterday my manager showed me an article telling the exact opposite.

Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: fanuvmxpx on July 03, 2009, 01:44:53 PM Those that eat meat are sinning, as God has revealed to His prophetess, Ellen G. White. You mean that one lady who had multiple failed prophecies and yet still is revered as a prophetess? Was she an avid reader of alice bailey by chance? Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: larry2 on July 03, 2009, 01:48:53 PM Is Ellen G. White's name somewhere in scripture along with Joseph Smith? With doctrines such as that; her without meat, and him without caffeine, they should be listed together in some book. rofl In Jesus' name - larry2 Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: Jimmy on July 03, 2009, 01:53:42 PM "SYDNEY (AFP) People who live on vegetarian diets have slightly weaker bones than their meat-eating counterparts, Australian researchers said Thursday.

So then eating meat contributed to the brain sized in human beings. I have often thouht that vegetarians were missing something. ::smile:: Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: Jon-Marc on July 03, 2009, 03:07:06 PM The only meat I can afford is chicken. I buy a 10 pound bag for less than $6. Unfortunately, a lot of that is bone and skin--both of which I throw away. That's still a lot cheaper than buying boneless, skinless chicken, or any other meat for that matter. I dislike most vegetables.
Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: larry2 on July 03, 2009, 03:29:17 PM True Remnant Church - I don't see you mocking Isaiah or Elijah. Ellen White was God's messenger. She may have been hit in the head with a rock, but the visions were real, and from God. larry2 - Dear True Remnant Church, I should not make fun of something you believe to be true, but I have no such belief in any that come in this day professing that God told me to tell you. First of all, it does not meet the qualification of all previous scripture; many in scripture ate meat. Scripture is our guide into all truth, and in Colossians 1:25 Whereof I (Paul) am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God; Here Paul says he was given the fulfilled word of God, Joseph Smith in the Book of Mormon says he fulfilled the word of God, The Catholic Church says whatever they say on earth shall be said in heaven, and here comes Ellen White and adds to all that. Are we going to believe all these modern day prophets, or the word of God? Then last of all I bring forth Galatians 1:8: "But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed."

Assuming that Genesis accurately provides some background. But then He gave us meat to eat. Dietary choices are dietary choices. Theological doctrines tied to salvation are not simply dietary choices.

Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: Nevertheless on July 03, 2009, 10:50:57 PM Romans 14:2 "He who is weak eats vegetables only." Is it also true then that he who eats vegetables only is weak? ::stirringthepot:: Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: admin on July 03, 2009, 11:35:05 PM One line kind of stands out in that report: "But the magnitude of the association is clinically insignificant," he added.
If that's the case then why did they make a big deal about it and a press release? Just needing to print stuff I guess? Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: zoonance on July 04, 2009, 08:00:02 AM Romans 14:2 "He who is weak eats vegetables only." Another excellent example of "whatever a man does with his hand may he do so heartily" from the one handed maiden threads! rofl Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: Amo on July 04, 2009, 07:01:19 PM Rom 14:1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations. 2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs. 3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him. Rom 14:19 Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another. 20 For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence. 21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak. 1 Cor 1:26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 2 Cor 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. Title: Re: Vegetarians Have Weaker Bones Than Meat Eaters Post by: larry2 on July 17, 2009, 04:48:32 PM Is it possible all vegetarians are cyclists; double the trouble? NEW YORK TIMES Friday, July 17, 2009 July 1, 2009, 11:15 am Is Bicycling Bad for Your Bones? By Gretchen Reynolds In 2006, Aaron Smathers, then 29, was a graduate student in the Department of Health and Exercise Science at the University of Oklahoma, gathering data for a study of brittle bones in cyclists. One of his subjects was himself, since hes been a bike racer for years. A recent scan had revealed that his bones were less dense than usual for a man his age. Not long after those results came in, he crashed during a race, snapping his collarbone. Six weeks later, in his first post-injury race, he was engulfed by a multi-rider pile-up, crashed again, and re-broke his collarbone. Worse, he fractured his hip so badly that the ball of the ball-and-socket joint broke off. Bone scans showed that almost all of the cyclists had significantly less bone density in the spine than the control group. Some of the racers, young men in their 20s, had osteopenia in their spines, a medical condition only one step below full-blown osteoporosis. To find guys in their twenties with osteopenia was surprising and pretty disturbing, Smathers says. In Jesus' name - larry2 |
