However, good news. Dan Buettner, author of Blue Zone Solution: Eating and Living Like The World's Healthiest People" explains that the book of Genesis had the answer all along when it directed ëat the fruits of seed bearing plants (beans) Longevity is attributed to the people of Sardinia because of fava beans, to Costa Rica black beans, lentils in Ikaria and soy beans in Okinawa.
Dollar for dollar most beans deliver more protein than beef. And bean's high fiber content serves as a gut compost of sorts enabling healthy bacteria to thrive
Ever since I was a kid it intrigued me that cowboys ate a lot of beef and beans on the trail . So now we know why? And so I followed suit. Fava beans were served a variety of ways in my family The favorite being fava beans with greens. Beans and franks another simple solution
So your search is over....that is until the next authority comes along with a newer and hence better discovery

I might add...
Jesus was not a vegetarian. The Bible records Jesus eating fish (
Luke 24:42-43) and lamb (
Luke 22:8-15). Jesus miraculously fed the crowds fish and bread, a strange thing for Him to do if He was a vegetarian (
Matthew 14:17-21). In a vision to the apostle Peter, Jesus declared all foods to be clean, including animals (
Acts 10:10-15). After the flood in Noah's time, God gave humanity permission to eat meat (
Genesis 9:2-3). God has never rescinded this permission.
