I think most people were meant to eat some meat (how else did we get b12?), but why is it the less you eat of it over time the less you want it? (at least in my case)
I have b12 deficiency as mentioned in another post and I am afraid of pills and shots so right now I make an exception and eat an egg, and a little 100% pasture raised beef from a local farm. I think it helps when the meat is humanely raised and grass fed. For awhile I was pescatarian until I had bad salmon. After that, I got really tired of standing at the fishmonger counter at Whole Foods in fear of what I might get. I had bad chicken once and that was the end of chicken, and in the last couple of years even eggs are starting to bother me. I don't eat the white, only the yolk because the white tastes like chicken to me. I haven't so far had bad beef from this local farm so it is what I will tolerate until I get over the fear of the shot. I just want to know why this has happened... why have I lost taste for meat, something I ate all my life ? I have digestion issues so maybe this is the cause? I cut out cheese after my digestion issues, something else I used to love, and now cheese is unappealing to me. I find it hard to sleep after eating the beef but I have added a lot of sauerkraut to my diet for probiotics and from what I've read that can cause trouble sleeping so it could be that as well. Anyway sorry for the rambling, I guess my general question is why the less animal foods you eat the less you want it when in fact I think we were meant to eat it? I start to imagine things like burning flesh and fat over the grill and this meat not going through my body well. These things never happened in my childhood or early 20's. I sometimes wonder if my anxiety contributes to it all.
