if that thing about meat making you lazy and veggies making you active is true (and i don't think it is) then it would only apply to human metabolism. what a food does to one species is not always the same as what it does to others. a lot of human foods cause cancer in rats.

meat-eating animals need to be fast and active in order to catch their prey. plant-eating animals do not need to be fast to catch plants (lol). so a meat-eating animal that is slow is going to die out while a plant-eating animal that is slow is not going to (unless there is a lot of pressure from predators.) only a few plant-eaters die from being caught by predators before they leave offspring, so generally they can afford to be slow (and being slow uses up a lot less energy than being fast does) a meat-eater cannot afford to be slow.

eMale: not true at all. a vegetarian can obtain all the nutrients they need without using any supplements. the biggest issue is protein, and that comes in many vegetarian products. many vegetarians go their whole lives without needing to take supplements.

You have a every twisted perception of reality. Lions are amongst the laziest animals there are, they can sleep up to 20 hours a day or more. Rabbits and squirrels, on the other hand, have the energy to hop around all day. Even elephants are another good example, they may not be quick or anything but they spend a lot of their time walking miles and miles while certain carnivorous animals lie around all day. But to answer your question, I'm sure that affirmation applies mostly to humans, since all animals are different and their bodies have different needs, be them concerning what they eat or concerning how much they really have to move around. When you look at a cow, do you see an animal with an inherent and natural necessity to be very active and energetic? They're not like that, but still, don't underestimate cows, they can pack a mean kick when threatened. And how about the animals that the fastest land animal eats? The cheetah often hunts Thomson's gazelles and impalas... Have you ever seen how fast those animals are and how strong their legs are to be able to jump like that? They're not as fast as the cheetah, granted, but not for much, and they don't get tired as easily and they often escape that which is the fastest of all land animals! Then if you wanna talk about strength, how about looking at some of the strongest animals alive that are herbivorous (considering their strength as proportionate to their size, of course) such as the gorilla, the rhino, the elephant, etc.! So, no, I never noticed what you said, because it's entirely false and a fallacious argument.

Do you really want such a lazy boring husband? If you don't then leave him and find someone who deserves you. If you do then I would begin exercising together. At the beginning do a little bit, say, fifteen minutes jog, or less. Keep it minimal, easy and positive- make it sound like a brilliant idea and maybe even get some of his mates encouraging him too. Then, as you progress, do a tiny bit more each time, make it unnoticable or he may be put off. Take it slowly but make him want to do it- good luck!

who told u that vegetarian animals are lazy ?carnivorous animals are active only when they hunt for food. & for mating.otherwise they spend their time sleeping. do u think rabbits & deers are lazy ?what about horse , bull, camel, elephants . they all work like human beings & earn their food. do u call them lazy or does man allow them to be lazy?herbivores don't have to hunt for their food. so, they graze. for grazing they don't have to be extra active. have u seen how a deer runs when it sees danger ?by the way how did u get the idea that meat makes u lazy ?if u over eat ( whether it is veg or non veg )u become lazy.

Rats/mice are herbivores (well kinda scavengers in the wild but mainly herbivorous) and they are very active.

"Animals can't live on veggies alone. Human vegetarian's take vitamin supplements or they eventually die of malnutrition."
That's not true. You can get every vitamin and mineral you need from a lacto-ovo diet without taking supplements and not only live but thrive.

It's because vegetarian animals don't have to hunt down and kill their food. Why do they need to be active when they spend all their time grazing in a pasture? Carniverous animals have to be "powerful lean n fast" or else they would never eat because the food they eat runs away from them.

ha...where did u come up with the theory? Meat makes u lazy?
It is protein which is supposed to build up muscle tissue...veggies have fibre for regularity n vitamins which r co-factors for metabolic processes in ur body..

dun think herbivores r slow/ lazy too...guess they just have no need to be fast...since their 'prey' is grass/ plants which r basically rooted to the ground..(pun intended!!) hee.. :P

ROFL! You are kidding me. You thought of 1 animal..a cow and called them lazy. They are not lazy, they are cows! Lazy is sitting around and watching TV..not grazing all day long.

Did you know that wild cats like what you mentioned lie around most of the day?

Clearly you don't know any horses at all - try pulling a plow or wagon full of humans all day long. Besides I think you're confusing prey animals with animals that are hunters.
