Hi Sahil. Thanks for your comment, I appreciate your viewpoints. However if the issue against eating beef is animal slaughter, then I believe eating white meat is equally bad. I certainly agree about being careful when selecting various cuts of meat. While meat (poultry included) in general tends to be injected with hormones, antibiotics and various others additives, it’s down to us consumers to take precaution i.e. avoid buying factory-farmed meat and instead opt for grass-fed, organic sources of meat. Like any kind of food, be it vegetables or meat, product quality makes all the difference on how certain foods affect our bodies. I respect people’s decisions for avoiding meat but I definitely think red meat is a healthy addition to one’s diet in moderation. Between its vitamin B content, protein, iron and various other nutrients, red meat can actually boost one’s health.

Like you said, choice is yours.

I think the reason for not eating beef is not of any religion or sect but because of the pain that the animal undergoes.I would rather kill a small animal and eat it since it requires less suffering on the animals part.

Also eating red meat is sometimes not good and you never know what kind of meat you are eating as recently mixing horse meat with beef made some headlines last year.
Animals such as cow,buffalos are raised with lot of hormones injected on regular basis to make them fat,beefy in the process of altering their genes leaving the animal to their fate in return for good money.These commercial companies want to maximize profits and dont care for consumers like us.

When flesh is consumed by human we get in touch with the animals blood and alters our good genes since we come in contact with the animal hormones.Over long time consumption it leads to diseases like Obesity ,high blood pressure
and heart diseases not to mention carcinogens entering the human blood stream because red meat is processed with lot of salt and refrigerants.

I would rather eat vegetables and white meat than killing a huge animal giving it lot of pain not to mention slowly exposing my body to gene alterations.

Choice is yours!
