Don't Get Me Wrong About PETA
I'm turning VEGAN for health reasons. I really believe in PETA being People Eating Tasty Animals. Of course they should be slaughtered humanely and not kept in cramped gages and fed properly and be allowed to run around. I am not against people eating meat and animal products. But the simple fact is that cholesterol is only found in animals and their by-products. Apparently people produce all the cholesterol they need for their bodies to function and any additional source is superfluous or dangerous. Some people can't handle the excess cholesterol and it builds up plaque in the arteries and leads to heart desease. So if I eliminate all cholesterol in my diet by being VEGAN and then find that my cholesterol level is still elevated, I will know that my cholesterol was not coming from an external source, but my own body. And that is what this whole experiment is about.
