Meats versus fruits and veggies... Which do you prefer? Let's discuss some basic facts about meats, fruits and veggies.
Meats are good source of protein. Proteins can also be acquired from beans, legumes, eggs, and some other fruits such as avocado, coconut, watermelon, and durian. We need protein to repair our body tissues and it is one of the sources of body energy. The other sources of energy are fats and carbohydrates. The vitamins and minerals help the three main sources of energy do their job. The role of energy in the body is to extract the oxygen from the
atmosphere and diffuse it into our bloodstream. This energy is vital for
moving the body muscles, an activity that is needed to be done everyday.
Too much is bad. High protein diet may lead to high uric acid which will lead to gout arthritis or even kidney failure.
Factors that may cause a high uric acid level in your blood:[1]
Do you prefer meat?
Beef, pork, and chicken meat need more time before they can be digested. For people whose metabolism is slow, it takes 2 to 3 days before they can come out from the body which will lead to hyperacidity or even become a poison.
Processed meats such as hotdogs, sausages, chorizo (spiced ground pork or chicken) can be eaten alternately and became more readily available. The problem with these foods is the way they are prepared. Contamination may lead to diarrhea or food poisoning. And also I am not sure of the amount of protein in these food.
What about veggies or fruits?
String beans, monggo beans, soya beans, nuts, other legumes, watermelon, avocado, and durian are the alternates to meats but also the good sources of protein. They are also the good sources of fibers that are necessary for the digestion and thus allowing our body to dispose waste from 8 to 12 hours after eating.

Factors that may cause a high uric acid level in your blood:[1]
- Diuretic medications (water pills)
- Drinking too much alcohol
- Genetics (inherited tendencies)
- Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid)
- Immune-suppressing drugs
- Niacin, or vitamin B-3
- Obesity
- Psoriasis
- Purine-rich diet — organ meat, game meat, anchovies, herring, gravy, dried beans, dried peas, mushrooms and other foods
- Renal insufficiency — inability of the kidneys to filter waste
- Tumor lysis syndrome — a rapid release of cells into the blood caused by certain cancers or by chemotherapy for those cancers
