Biden-Harris Committee Set To Push 'Plant Sources of Protein' Over Red Meat in New Dietary Guidelines—But Only After the Election

A little-known federal group assembled by the Biden-Harris administration is preparing to issue dietary guidelines for Americans that will formally recommend beans, peas, and lentils take precedence over meats like chicken and beef.

Bear Grylls ditches vegan diet, explains why he now embraces carnivore lifestyle: 'The biggest game-changer'



Survivalist Bear Grylls admitted in a new interview that he is "embarrassed" that he once followed a vegan lifestyle, revealing he now does the complete opposite.

In a new interview, Grylls explained is mea culpa for once advocating for veganism.

"I was vegan quite a few years ago — in fact, I wrote a vegan cookbook — and I feel a bit embarrassed because I really promoted that," he said. "I thought that was good for the environment and I thought it was good for my health. And through time and experience and knowledge and study, I realised I was wrong on both counts."

Now, Grylls embraces a "counterculture way of living" — he mostly eats red meat, organs, raw dairy, honey, and fruit — what he describes as "natural food" that is consistent with what humanity's ancestors ate.

"Out of all the different things I do for my health, I think that’s probably been the biggest game-changer, in the sense of improving my vitality, wellbeing, strength, skin and gut," he explained. "It's just been getting away from the processed stuff and making the predominant thing in my diet red meat and liver and the natural stuff — fruit, honey, that sort of thing. It’s just about finding a more ancestral way of living."

What is carnivore?

The carnivore diet has become an internet craze over the last few years — and for good reason.

Modern Western society has been overwhelmed with metabolic diseases, like Type 2 diabetes and heart disease, and obesity. People who adhere to a carnivore diet — either strictly meat and saturated fat, or modified with raw dairy, raw honey, and fruit — have discovered they not only drop unwanted fat but they often describe they've never felt better.

The theory is that a carbohydrate-heavy diet, plants (i.e. vegetables), and the consumption of seed oils — those the American Heart Association claim are "healthy cooking oils" — produce chronic inflammation, gut trouble, and negatively impact hormones.

In 2021, an Oxford nutrition journal published the results of a study about the carnivore diet showing, for example, that nearly every participant who had Type 2 diabetes put their disease into remission through a carnivore lifestyle. Nearly every participant who had a chronic or metabolic disease experienced resolution or an improvement in their condition, the study found, while participants lost an average of 20 pounds.

13 Reasons Most People Will Never Go Vegan

I’m a ‘live-and-let-live’ kind of guy, but many of the vegans I have known aren’t.

Veganism wanes in significance as Americans are eating more meat than five years ago



Despite popular culture pushing meat alternatives and legacy media insisting that Americans are “consuming less red meat,” Americans are eating more beef today than five years ago.

Americans are refusing to ditch red meat in defiance of fad diets and plant-based meat substitutes like the Impossible and Beyond lines of burgers taking over space on restaurant menus.

The New York Post reported that the average American consumed 58.6 pounds of red meat in 2021. In 2017, Americans recorded an all-time low by consuming an average of 54 pounds of red meat that year.

Americans are eating roughly five more pounds of red meat than five years ago.

The New York Post suggested that veganism is a fad that might be on the way out. The Post said that New York City’s exclusive dining scene has even pulled the plug on restaurant projects featuring meatless menus.

The Post said, “The owners of a new skyscraper, 425 Park Avenue, pulled the plug on a planned new restaurant there by EMP chef/owner Daniel Humm because he insisted on an all-vegan menu.”

Humm also “got the boot” from the Claridge’s hotel in London over the same issue.

The Post also suggested that figures in popular culture continually insisting that a meatless diet is the future is an example of them being “hilariously out of touch with the masses.”

“The media-propelled notion that Americans have turned from red meat to fake meat is a case of Park Slope talking to Park Slope — elites hilariously out of touch with the masses,” the Post said.

The New York Times recently suggested that Americans were increasingly moving towards meatless diets by citing a 2019 Gallup poll indicating that one-quarter of its respondents ate less meat. The Times said that respondents to the poll primarily did so “for health reasons.”

The Post, however, insisted that “Big Apple steakhouses are thriving and adding locations” and that the “ban-the-beef movement is part of a ban-anything-that-tastes-good mindset that holds sway in woker-than-thou circles.”

Outside of New York City’s exclusive dining scene, people might simply be eating more beef than faux beef for economic reasons.

Buying beef — at $5.99 a pound — to feed a family of four or five is more affordable than buying Impossible Burger meat substitute packages for nearly $8 — before sales tax — per pound.

Contrary to the popular cultural narrative, for the time being, at least, the working man eats steak while the rich man eats planted-based steak substitute.

Study says children on a vegan diet may have stunted growth and other health problems



A new study found that children reared on a vegan diet may have stunted growth and other health problems compared to those raised on a diet that includes meat.

The study was conducted by researchers at the University College London and the Children's Memorial Health Institute. They looked at data from healthy children ages 5 to 10 in Poland.

The study found that the children raised on a vegan diet were 3 centimeters shorter than their meat-eating counterparts. The children were also three times likely to suffer from a vitamin B deficiency.

The vegan children, however, had less body fat and better levels of cholesterol that's linked to heart disease.

The study also found that vegan children had lower bone mass and 4% to 6% lower bone mineral density. This could lead to osteoporosis in later life.

"We found the vegans had higher intakes of nutrients that indicated an 'unprocessed' type of plant -based diet, which is in turn linked to lower body fat and better cardiovascular risk profile. On the other hand, their lower intakes of protein, calcium, and vitamins B12 and D may explain their less favorable bone mineral and serum vitamin concentrations," said Dr. Małgorzata Desmond, one of the authors of the study.

The study also found that there were negative health outcomes associated with a vegetarian diet compared to a vegan diet because many of the vegetarian meals were composed of processed foods.

"We are learning that just eating plant-based diets is no guarantee of health, we still need to select healthy foods," said Desmond, who is also a researcher at the Children's Memorial Health Institute.

The study was published March 19 in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Vegan parents ignored warnings that strict diet was unhealthy for their baby girl. She suffered brain damage from the malnutrition.



The vegan parents of a baby girl pleaded guilty to negligence causing serious injury after they ignored warnings about their strict diet and she suffered brain damage as a result.

A County Court of Victoria sentenced the Australian couple on Monday to undergo mental treatment but they will escape jail time. They will also have to serve a community sentence of 12 months.

The 12-month-old baby girl was reportedly rushed to an emergency clinic in August 2018 by the 34-year-old father. Doctors said she suffered from extreme malnutrition, with disturbing symptoms including open wounds, rashes, bruises and discoloration of her skin.

She also had internal bleeding and blood in her stool. Doctors said her condition was like that found in babies being raised in countries experiencing famine.

Investigators found that the father had sought help from a herbal health club about his daughter's condition a week before rushing her to the clinic.

"Hi my 1-year-old has stopped wanting to drink/eat and when she does, it's not staying down or she starts to cough," he reportedly wrote in the email. "What can I do to help her keep it down and allow her to drink? She doesn't have a temp. She is on a fruit diet. Please help asap."

Instead of sending the father and daughter to the hospital, they recommended a "stomach tea."

The parents also reportedly stopped consulting with health experts after they were told that the baby needed more than the coconut water and powders that they were feeding her.

Instead, they sought advice from alternative health outlets in the U.S. and Canada.

The baby girl spent a month in intensive care. Her condition had improved with the benefit of a balanced diet and proper healthcare.

"She faces a difficult and challenging life," said Judge Claire Quin.

The disturbing case bears a striking resemblance to that of a Cape Coral, Florida, couple who were charged with the death of their 18-month-old son in 2019. The child was on a strict vegan diet and had not seen a doctor after the mother gave birth at home.
