[...] Last year was my first year abstaining from red meat for the entire summer. With the temperature reaching 29Â° C today and forecasted to remain above 20Â° for the foreseeable future, I think itâ€s time I start my second round. [...]

In reply to Brian. Iâ€m not a fan of steak. I find it has little flavour. I prefer gamier red meats.

I generally avoid red meat and prefer to cook with turkey meat when hamburger is called out in the recipe. Additionally, I generally prefer chicken to steak.

It is interesting what is being said. But, if you look at the history of that period the people would kill an animal and eat meat most meals it over a period of time. They had no refrigeration, hence the statement to eat meat sparingly was the Lord’s advice.

We know today that an over indulgence of “protein” is not healthy and leads to all kinds of health problems.

It is interesting to me how health advice given by God has been right on.

That is really interesting. I have never looked at it that way. Good luck with sticking to it!

Notice verse 13 includes not just winter, but cold. I will probably finish around the autumnal equinox, or sometime thereafter depending on the weather.

I’ve actually been toying myself with the idea of becoming seasonally vegetarian, only eating meat during winter. I’m sorta curious, though, are you counting “winter” by traditional winter solstice? I wonder because, being further north, “winter” conditions start much earlier than that.

I eat real food avoiding processed and packaged food for the most part and I generally eat meat sparingly preferring Asian stir fry with vegetables Sushi or a small amount of meat with a full salad bar salad. I’ve gone years without eating any red meat and I feel better on less meat but I seem to have more energy when I include a small amount of red meat.
