Meat is and essential part of the food group. It strengthens the body and provides necessary proteins that help muscle development. The Bible tells us that God provided animals on land and in the air for humans to hunt and eat. Another food that aids bodily development is dairy products. Dairy is needed from infancy through adulthood and beyond to provide calcium and vitamin D which help strong bones to develop. Animals are the main source through which we attain our daily source of vitamins and minerals. Some people are opposed to eating any type of animal product because they fear that an animal was harmed or killed in order to get the food from them. This is a completely invalid reason for not eating animal products. Animals are to be used for human nourishment. If we do not use animals for food, they will overpopulate and become a problem in our society. In addition to this, being a vegan is certainly not a healthy practice because it is extremely difficult to get all the essential ingredients from other sources. Even though there are many synthetic products that help vegans obtain proper nutrients, it is not the same as obtaining them from natural sources.
