Sharing.(Letter to the Editor)
I want to thank you for your balanced views in "Meaty Issues" (Feb. 2002). I know there are lots of pros and cons about consuming beef, fish and dairy products--one study says they're good for us, another says they're unhealthy. But meats especially seem to get bad-mouthed. One vegetarian "guru" I know says that meats cause 90 percent of all illnesses, but gave no references when I asked for them.
While vegetarian diets are cleansing, they aren't sustaining. My studies lead me to believe that a balanced diet--including all foods--is needed to promote good health.
Ted H. Spence, DOS, ND (Doctor of Naturopathy) Exmore, Virginia
