Lions and other carnivorous animals do a lot of things besides eat meat. They live outdoors, not in houses they don't wear clothes or drive around in cars they usually sleep for many hours after eating a meal.

In fact, drinking milk and eating dairy products can rob your body of calcium and contribute to osteoporosis. If you eat dark green leafy vegetables like kale, collards, and mustard greens, you can get enough calcium from a vegan diet.

The number of human deaths due to hardening of the arteries and other similar diseases suggests that human beings were not meant to eat animals our bodies are unable to digest the animal fat effectively and it ends up stored in our blood vessels, not to mention our waist lines, buttocks and thighs!
