The Truth About Pork
Pork has nourished many generations of Americans. The mighty sow often has a bad reputation for stewing in its own excrement. While this is not true, it is disturbing how we continue to eat pork.
Besides, there are other, much more worrisome, reasons why we should not consume pork.
The pig can be called nature's vacuum cleaner. It is not affected by many toxins that would kill other animals in a heartbeat, and those toxins that do kill them would have to be consumed in vast quantities to result in the death of the animal.
The mechanism which allows the animal this bizarre and enviable resistance to poisons is the way its body grows and produces flesh and fat, and stores things in that fat.
Pigs put on flesh at several times the rate that other human-consumed animals do. The body of the pig forces any toxins the pig consumes into the flesh, and stores and locks them there. When we eat the meat of a pig, we take in all the toxins that are stored in the fat of the pig.
There was an instance in which a farmer ordered the a large quantity of cow liver to feed to his animals. The company providing the liver accidentally sent the farmer the pig liver instead. All the animals that ate the pig liver died quickly and painfully of a colorful variety of things. Some developed cancer within a few days. Some suffered digestive tract disturbances so great that they bled to death.
The consumption of pork is forbidden in various religions world-wide. For a while, we did not understand why the animals were considered "unclean", but, now, modern science is showing us just how unclean the pigs truly are.
Pigs are often infested with trichina, parasitic roundworms. These roundworms are often passed on to humans when pork is not properly cooked. Trichina are found in the highest concentrations amongst animals in pigs and similar animals.
"Well," you might say. "The companies add antibiotics to the feed of the pigs. Trichina is no problem for me and pigs in modern society."
