There's an excellent article on traditional peoples and their diets on the Westonaprice website and addresses some vegetarian issues. The article can be found on the westonaprice.org site, specifically: <A HREF="http://"> http://www.westonaprice.org/traditional_diets/nasty_brutish_short.html</A> or you can pick up an excellent article by Dr. Stephen Byrnes at <A HREF="http://www.PowerHealth.net">http://www.PowerHealth.net</A> on the Myths of Vegetarianism. Great reading at both sites. Also Thomas Moore wrote an excellent book on Longevity that dispels many of the superiority claims made by or for vegetarianism.
