********* Your genetic makeup and exercise profile may tolerate your meateating diet, but meateating is simply not at all healthy for the great majority of people. Beginning with the Korean War, all dead soldiers were autopsied to see how their arteries were, a battlefield being a great place to get lots of young subjects. The 50s diet did not contain refined polyunsatured seed oils and certainly fewer refined carbs, yet the majority of young soldiers did have advanced coronary lesions: "These results correspond with the observation 36 y earlier of advanced coronary artery lesions in young (average age: 22 y) soldiers killed in the Korean War (30). Thus, there seems little doubt that in the coronary arteries the juvenile fatty streakan apparently innocuous cluster of macrophage foam cells in the arterial intimacan, in some individuals, progress to advanced atherosclerotic lesions within a few decades. http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/reprint/72/5/1307S.pdf <http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/reprint/72/5/1307S.pdf>
