I have never killed insects - barring the occasional mosquito, because i am SO allergic to them than one tiy bite swells me up in 6" weeping lumps! I hate to do it but i do. I've never been vegan or veggie, but I have always been this way. Never kill anything unecessarily.
I don't agree that humans are naturally veggie or vegan. We have the teeth of an omnivore - and they eat pretty much anything going that they can kill or scavenge. Animals eat other animals all the time, and that is perfectly natural - why should we be any different?
Did you ever wonder if it's the extra nutrients in the increased amount fruit+veggies (especially raw) that are giving you this extra clarity/health etc - and that they would do that anyway if the same amount were eaten *in addition* to meat/fish etc.
I would love to see you try this. No (or vanishingly little) grains, of course - that's one thing I really don't think we are made to cope with very much of....
How about it??? or would your expectations/feelings bias such an experiment too much?
