Quick response ..... "studies" did not include other groups of people living in spite of diets higher in fats, meats, than considered ideal ..... African tribes ingesting lots of meat, Artic peoples eating lots of fat.

Recognize please that I am not suggesting that plant foods don't have a place in a good diet and good health. Minimizing the amount of sugar, saturated fat and over eating will do lots to improve how we feel and hopefully, how well we age. Making broad statements and correlations based on relatively little data doesn't make it absolute fact, in this case and in many other scientific research endeavors.
I probably could give you more if you like, but won't tonight. We're heading home from a short visit to Chicago and I don't have the energy to argue. Quick, someone give me a carrot.....

Nite, Jimbo.
