08.06.22 | "agreed completely. think there’s a fallacy some people believe that vegan automatically = healthy."
if you're referring to stuff like plant based meat, plant based cheese, and plant based meals based on animal based stuff like meat, poultry, and dairy, that is not technically 'vegan' even though the fda allows them to be certified as such. veganism is about ethics and aims to protect animals and their rights, and that plant based garbage is full of long chain fatty saturated oils and processed ingredients so actual vegans who eat real, whole food have the advantage of longevity, micro nutrition, and moral high ground (this one isn't necessarily the end goal but just happens to be a part of it) while not pandering to companies pretending to be healthy just because they make plant based alternatives (the sad thing is that some of them actually test on animals) |
GhandhiLion
08.06.22 | Uh no you don't have to follow a vegan whole foods diet strictly to be an 'actual vegan'. But yes eating a variety of whole plant foods is the best for health. The mediterranean diet is the most favoured and one of the most researched diets by nutritionists. (not a vegan diet though)

I think it's valid to choose to not consume these products, but you can argue that even the companies that do that offer an option to people who would otherwise not find veganism attractive. Most people are not going to move to a whole foods diet when they are already eating garbage. |

TheAntichrist
08.06.22 | In all seriousness, no I have not been Freegan for the past twelve years. That's a not a concept I understood 12 years ago when I was only 18, just moving out on my own, going to community college while working full time at Publix at the time, and having yet to experience the real world for everything it has to offer: the love, the heartbreak, the joy, the suicide attempts and depression, alcoholism, where I stood with my Catholic upbringings, the decision to stop contributing to a corrupt meat industry and its partners as much as I could, balancing my first check book, changing my first tire, and so on and so forth. I didn't just know out the gate exactly what I needed to do. In spirit, I've been Freegan the past twelve years, but in practice based off increasingly high expectations, much less, and that's fine because there's no better time for life to be a roller coaster than your 20's. I don't actually care about whether or not you want your almond milk ice cream or Morning Star chik'n nuggets or what have you; as long as you're not eating stuff that comes from animals, that's honestly great. Sometimes I'll get a pint of So Delicious Cookies and Cream Cashewmilk ice cream because it's literally the best thing since sliced bread no joke LOL. If you're making the transition from animal foods and animal tested products, that's great too. If you're still eating animal food but having less of it over time and more nutrient dense plant based food, that's great too. I'm actually being serious this time and not just my usual exaggerated, half-kidding, lower-cased antics that has made up the near 4,000 comments of my almost two years of being TheAntichrist. I guess that means I sold out as of today, but oh well. Life goes on. I don't support abortions, but if you feel it's right, go have one because it's a free country, and I can't tell you what you can and can't do. I don't support the vaccine, but if you feel like it's right, go ahead and get it because it's a free country, and I can't tell you what you can and can't do. Have your plant based cake and eat it too because at least it's not made from dairy right? |

Though I imagine there are plenty of vegetarians who love to be able to eat out and find Impossible-something on the menu of every not-niche restaurant. |
Colton
08.06.22 | "Plant based meat was never meant for people that don't eat meat"
?? that's essentially the entire idea of plant based meat. if you eat meat, you'll just eat actual meat. maybe you'll try some alternatives out of curiosity but that's probably it for most people. what you just said is like saying "lactose free milk was never for people who are lactose intolerant" lol |

IsisScript80
08.06.22 | ^ Yeah, as a vegetarian for 7 1/2 years, that definitely applies to me. There's these strange ideas floating about that vegetarians/vegans actively dislike the taste of meat... that, I'm sure in the vast majority of cases, isn't true.

Colton
08.06.22 | cause it’s way easier to be a vegetarian than a vegan |
IsisScript80
08.06.22 | ^ Basically, that's it.
But specifically @GhandiLion: Because as much as I would like to be, there's always some caveat where what you're doing "isn't quite vegan" or some such. Eating out for example, is difficult enough... always having to double check ingredients on the menu (and even then, most of it has to be taken on trust... I've come across many establishments that are unaware of what constitutes "vegetarian" in regards to things like pesto or cheese).
Inevitably, I've also seen in front of me, people who call themselves "vegan", yet wear leather boots or (unwittingly or not) consume something that I know for a fact, isn't vegan. It's an actual minefield if you aim to be 100% (which if I were to define "vegan", I would). For me personally, I just have to compromise/own the half-arsed hypocracies and just classify myself as vegetarian. I consider it better than not being so (as in... a start). |
BaselineOOO
08.06.22 | I am "almost vegan", I only eat fish once or twice a week.
Reasons:
-animal products are disgusting (don't care about animal abuse, pollution, etc.)
-my religion is vegan (Christianity)
-it's by far the healthiest diet
Oh yeah, and I do use leather products, so only my diet is close to veganism. |
Colton
08.06.22 | idk I used to think veganism/vegetarianism was the healthiest but since I started eating meat again I'm in the best shape of my life and feel better than ever. but idk if it's because I'm eating meat again or just because my protein intake is a lot higher now. it's really hard to get a lot of protein without meat, a lot harder than people admit |
GhandhiLion
08.06.22 | "there's always some caveat where what you're doing isn't quite vegan"
This is true, mistakes are common and eating plants 'isn't quite vegan'. (Indirect deaths from crops and transport) But I wouldn't say that the impossibility of perfection is a reason to abandon vegan ethics and start deliberately purchase cow milk etc
"people who call themselves "vegan", yet wear leather boots or (unwittingly or not)"
There's a high chance that the boots they were wearing were purchased before they decided to become vegan. The only ethical argument I can think of for that not being vegan is that you are helping normalise the use of animal skin. It's a grey area, personally I think that's a weak argument.

08.06.22 | "But I wouldn't say that the impossibility of perfection is a reason to abandon vegan ethics and start deliberately purchase cow milk etc"
Yeah, that is true. As I basically said , vegetarianism is only a step in the ethical direction, not the overall endpoint. There are many failings to it... I'm well aware and offer no excuses for it.
In terms of a individual's personal classification of themselves, it really is just how you label it... a vegan who misses the mark is objectively (at least), vegetarian, despite what they call themselves. Vegetarianism, was for me, a baseline choice as a former omnivore. It's not as good as being vegan, but sits better with me than pescatarianism or the way I was before.
I call myself vegetarian because that's what I am. My partner and child aren't vege/vegan, and I have no aim to convert or change their behaviour, nor does it affect my love and respect for them... it was a decision for myself, based on the minimum standard I felt comfortable with for myself, *personally*, at that stage. |

BaselineOOO
08.07.22 | Peanuts, almonds, pistachio, cashew, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, walnuts, hazelnuts, oats, soybeans, tofu are all very high protein vegan snacks that can be cooked into tasty meals. If you include vegetarian foods then protein is even easier to acquire from eggs, milk and dairies. I fail to see why anyone would aim for more than 80-100g of protein in their diet daily, even if they're body builders. You're referring to people with health problems or something? |
Dedes
08.07.22 | I imagine being vegan is only difficult from a literal level because it's not exactly cost efficient if you are looking to stay healthy imo
The cheapest foods are like, potatoes, rice, cabbage, chicken breasts, and oats. The only cheap high protein vegan option amongst those would p much be oats.
I think it's still certainly possible but I could, at the very least, see why it would get immensely boring.
For the record I am neither vegan nor vegetarian and I think that ethically raised meat is probably the best way to go. |
Colton
08.07.22 | almost all of those besides soybeans and tofu are not especially high in protein at all. 300 calories of almonds has 11 grams of protein. that's not a particularly good ratio. beans/legumes are better per calorie but you have to eat so many of them to actually get a good amount of protein, that's the problem. also lol at anyone who just throws out a blanket number of 100 grams of protein a day.... that's just patently false and shows you don't know what you're talking about |
Colton
08.07.22 | I was eating around 100 grams of protein as a vegetarian for literally 6 years, started eating meat again and upping my intake to around 150-160 grams and almost instantly got stronger and started recovering faster without changing anything in my workout routine |
Dedes
08.07.22 | @baseline
for a standard 170lb male (a narrow number and req) like 60-70 is fine iirc but weights and muscle mass vary so greatly. Hell even the smaller bodybuilders I follow consume at least like 120 just to maintain their mass. |
Trebor.
08.07.22 | vegan is super cheap if you cook and stick to the basics. A block of tofu is like a dollar fifty and most beans are a dollar a can and even cheaper if you buy them raw and in bulk. A do a spicy braised tofu/rice/broccoli bowl three times a week that's a couple dollars per serving |
Colton
08.07.22 | in terms of price I think it's pretty doable, you just have to have a big appetite to eat all that food. sometimes I have it in me to wolf down a can of chickpeas but usually I don't. tofu is also pretty processed and unnatural so having to rely on it is not a good thing imo |
Trebor.
08.07.22 | Tell that to all the 100 year olds in Asia eating tofu every day |
GhandhiLion
08.07.22 | Most foods are unnatural. Why is tofu not a good thing in your opinion? |
Colton
08.07.22 | you don't need to have a ton of unnatural foods in your diet. whole foods really are the best. I'm not saying you can't have any unnatural stuff but if you have to rely on it to get enough of a vital nutrient then your diet is not optimal. it's like when people say getting enough protein on a vegan diet is easy cause you can just take two scoops of vegan protein every day. the fact that you have to do that tells you that your diet isn't ideal |
Colton
08.07.22 | tofu is pretty good though I fuck with it. but surely if you're designing a diet from scratch for the purpose of optimizing health, you should be choosing whole foods, I don't think that's controversial |

I don't see how tofu is radically nutritiously inferior to something like tempeh |
Colton
08.07.22 | you're asking for proof of the notion that eating natural unprocessed foods is healthier than processed foods? my guy. it's honestly just common knowledge. natural foods are more nutrient dense meaning you get more vitamins and minerals which is linked to reduced risk of disease and better health in more ways than I could possibly list here. much lower intake of trans fats, sugar and sodium as well. tofu isn't actually too bad in that regard, I just don't think having to rely on it for protein indicates a long term healthy diet |
GhandhiLion

Colton
08.07.22 | see everything I said in that comment before that part lol. but also tofu's really not that bad for you it's basically just beans. but eating whole foods will always give you a more balanced intake of nutrients that's easier for your body to digest. also the fact that it doesn't have the best amino acid profile. this is getting away from my original point tho |

08.08.22 | love how I give arguments against veganism and they just ignore them and go "there's no argument against it!"
reality is everyone's diet should be tailored to their own specific needs based on your lifestyle. no diet is optimal for everyone. veganism might work great for some people but for a lot of people it's far from optimal and there's several valid reasons not to do it |

08.08.22 | Sonictheplumber with some elementary school levels of troll effort. Resorting to repeating himself to get a reaction.
My wife was vegetarian for 15 years and went vegan 2 years ago. Optimizing nutrient intake can be challenging but restructuring an entire diet isn’t easy. As Colton said, peoples bodies are different and what might work for one person might not for another. This doesn’t even take into account allergies, celiac, diabetes, etc which can further restrict someone’s ability to eat a balanced diet. |

What if I told you that as a vegan you should find new vegan recipes instead of trying to re-create meat-based dishes. Even on specialized vegan forums all they talk about is vegan hamburgers and wursts. Like wtf if you are a real vegan you should be disgusted by things that taste like meat and milk, not actively being nostalgic about them for the rest of your life. Be a real vegan, find and invent your unique vegan foods. |

Don't get me wrong, I believe all people on this planet are stupid. Vegans are right, but they're dumb as fuck. Yet still, meat eaters are wrong and unsaveable.
Look, if you study the digestive system of humans at school maybe you should think about it for 10 seconds and realize we are anatomically herbivorous. I mean you cannot be scientific about it "evolution this, evolution that" and then seriously say humans are omnivores, right? Colton shut up pls

BaselineOOO
08.08.22 | Colton... you never cease to amaze me. I want to be your friend, so let me tell you how it is, the truth, because I respect you as a sputniker. Protein is overrated by meat-eaters who desperately cling to the only "advantage" their dead animal food has over the scientifically superior vegan diet. Your protein to calorie argument stands has some value only if a high protein diet is desirable, which is not. (see below)
https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnut.2021.655833/full
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6562018/
Not to mention the quality of proteins drops considerably with cooking at high temperatures, especially on grill and in the oven (there are plenty of studies to back this up if you're interested). There's a bigger chance you'd get more quality protein from kiwis than from cooked meat lol. |
Colton
08.08.22 | "Dietary protein restriction orchestrates a whole organismal physiological response to stimulate energy intake and EE. The low protein induced thermogenesis is largely driven by dietary protein content and less likely by the concurrent hyperphagia. Though the liver and brain appear to be the primary sites for sensing protein deficiency, the coordination of these tissues with intestinal sensing mechanisms to promote hyperphagia and thermogenesis remains poorly understood. Although liver driven FGF21 seems essential for stimulating EE in response to protein or amino acid restricted diets, the role of local FGF21 synthesized and released from BAT, skeletal muscle and gut in the thermogenic responses to low protein diets remains to be determined. Further, the roles of systemic and local amino acid concentrations, as well as sympathetic and serotonergic signaling in brain, adipose and muscle tissues to coordinate intake and expenditure responses to dietary protein restriction remains largely unexplored. A deeper understanding of the neuroendocrine mechanisms by which dietary protein dilution modulates energy balance may lead to the development of novel strategies for preventing and treating obesity and associated comorbidities in humans, as well as for improving production efficiency in domestic animals."
lol at you thinking this proves anything you've said in this thread or goes against anything I said |
BaselineOOO
08.08.22 | Yeah yeah, I've read those studies a hundred times and know them by heart, which is why I have added the second argument in the comment above, that protein from cooked meat is quite probably the worst source of protein out there. |
Colton
08.08.22 | some people need more protein than they can acquire with a vegetarian or vegan diet. for those people, they will benefit from eating meat because it will allow them to get more protein much more easily. this should not be controversial it's just common sense |
BaselineOOO
08.08.22 | Then you should explain to us why humans are anatomically herbivore. |
Colton
08.08.22 | meat and animal products have higher amino acid levels than plant protein which makes them more effective for muscle growth/maintenance and strength |
Colton
08.08.22 | Humans have a trophic level of 2.21 (same as anchovy and pigs).[4]Anchovy subsist primarily on zooplankton.[5]Pigs are omnivores. Animals with such a trophic level can subsist on a widely varied diet. |
BaselineOOO
08.08.22 | omgggg not in all species, not in all SPECIES! There were these experiments with a gorilla back in 2006 where they fed her meat and she shrunk and withered like she was about to die. It's all about the digestive system HOLYYYY SHIT I'M DONE HERE NOW I'M MAD.
Who asked you about trophic levels, wow... ANSWER this questions, are humans not herbivore ANATOMICALLY? |
Colton
08.08.22 | your argument isn't even relevant though because I'm literally just saying that the optimal diet for any individual depends on the specific needs and goals of that individual |
Colton
08.08.22 | if you need a high protein intake, veganism might be difficult for you because you have to eat a much larger quantity of food. if you can sit down and eat big ass bowls of beans every day then more power to you but not everyone can. this is why you need to design your own diet that pertains to your own lifestyle and appetite |
BaselineOOO
08.08.22 | You definitely have the right amount of protein to annoy me, if that is your goal. Just enjoy your meat, I'm done here. I don't even care anymore |
Colton
08.08.22 | vegans: being a vegan is the only correct diet! there's no argument against it!!
non-vegan: well it really depends on the individual, some people need a lot of protein and have a hard time getting it without meat so for them it's better to eat meat
vegan: omg noooooo i'm so mad |
BaselineOOO
08.08.22 | Look, let's just conclude that humans can live quite well, regardless of their diet, if they are minimally educated not to eat horrible foods. (You and everybody else will come around to veganism maybe when it's government imposed for us all due to environmental concerns and so on.) |

BaselineOOO
08.08.22 | It's not a goalpost shit Colton. You avoided all I said about the quality of cooked protein at high temperatures and didn't recognize the fact that humans are anatomically herbivores. You will never climb any stairs if you skip so many steps. |
ReefaJones
08.08.22 | I'm for governmental imposed veganism for climate reasons. Until then I'll eat meat just because I like the taste |
Colton
08.08.22 | 1) cooking protein at high temperatures has nothing to do with people needing meat to get the amount of protein they need. you also ignored the superior amino acid profile of animal products compared to plant products
2) humans being anatomically herbivores doesn't relate to my argument either and it's also really obvious that humans are omnivores if you do like one second of critical thinking. the notion that we should model ourselves after the animals that we're biologically related to is a poorly thought out fallacy |
ReefaJones
08.08.22 | I mean chimps eat meat and that's about as close to a human as you can get |
Colton
08.08.22 | gorillas and bonobos don't eat a lot of meat. but it's not even relevant. humans can be healthy on both vegan diets and non vegan diets which shows you that we're omnivores. that's literally the definition, the fact that there are biological similarities between the structure of the human body and the structure of herbivore animal bodies means nothing. literally just try different diets and see what works for your particular needs and don't let anyone try to radicalize you into thinking there's one specific diet that's objectively correct for everybody |

08.08.22 | baseline is so insufferable and mentally unstable im starting to want to have sex with her |

08.08.22 | it's funny because I'm actually supporting veganism in these comments. if you don't need a lot of protein, it might work great for you. you'll be getting a lot of nutrients if you eat healthy foods and not just oreos and you'll probably have good heart health. even if you do need a lot of protein, veganism might still work for you, if you have the appetite and commitment to get that much protein on a vegan diet. in spite of saying these things, because I acknowledge that there are certain people who would benefit from a non vegan diet, vegans get mad. it's a cult-like mentality of "you're either with us or against us. you need to argue that veganism is objectively right in all scenarios" |

My main point is that vegans, no matter how full of shit they are, are still superior to meat-eaters from a scientific stance. Non vegans are all about "mAh tAsTe" and individualism, kinda chaotic and impertinent, but mainly disgusting. It's technically cleaner to eat your girl's ass than consume dairy. I'm just saying. |
JeremiahBullfrog
08.09.22 | Eating meat is as natural as being born. How we go about getting the meat due to the demand and lack of will to pay a higher price, is unnatural. It is Auschwitz for animals, it's cruel.
But animals are fucking DELICIOUS, there isn't a vegan burger in the world thats comparing to a good old meat burger, and if you're trying to say that there is, cope harder.
And on a final note, kids should "meet their meat" - a lot of people think their meat magically appears in the supermarket, and should be educated on the process from start to finish. Also if you know in your heart of hearts you couldn't kill that animal to eat it, you shouldn't be eating meat. |
BaselineOOO
08.09.22 | "Eating meat is as natural as being born."
Yes, I am gonna go hunt for squirrels later tonight and eat them raw, cause it's natural. It is not natural, without fire/heat you're anatomically incapable of digesting raw meat properly. What's the median IQ of this website HOLY SHIT.
"It is Auschwitz for animals, it's cruel."
No it's not, I'm a girl and I do not say dumb emotional things like this. It is more useful to domesticate, feed and breed animals than to hunt for them daily. It's a matter of efficiency.
"But animals are fucking DELICIOUS, there isn't a vegan burger in the world thats comparing to a good old meat burger, and if you're trying to say that there is, cope harder."
Again, only low IQ vegans try to re-create meat-like dishes. So comparing a hamburger with real meat with a vegan hamburger is lazy as fuck. You're just an airhead arguing with yourself right now.
"But animals are fucking DELICIOUS"
Really? Try eating any meat unseasoned, without salt, spices, sauces etc. Enjoy the taste. Anyway, this is what meat-eating boils down to: "mAh TaStE". Nothing else matters, hence why everybody ignores the science when talking about diet, cause it's a "personal" thing. |

It's called evolution dummy. Fire allowed us to cook our meat which also means we don't need sharp canine teeth to rip out the flesh from a dead animal. None of that points to us being herbivores. It just shows that your mind can't even grasp a concept as simple as this. |

Imagine sucking fluids out of a fat-ass pig. Fucking unreal...
Carnivores would literally put anything in their body, which explains the paradox why most vegans are conservatives. You'd expect for vegans to be progressive liberals, well - WRONG! 90% of American vegans are republicans. Apparently the trait of "disgust" is strongly linked to conservative ideals. So these "progressive" guys pretend to care about the environment, minority rights and so on, but when it comes to food they're literally okay with enslaving and sacrificing billion of innocent lives to satisfy their taste. Yikes!

And I do eat things like Boca burgers every so often - not for the veganism or 'substitution' of meat, I genuinely think they taste good and unique. Not sure I could go full vegan, though. I "around" 3000-3500 kcal/day and also have a borderline high blood sugar level. So the "meat" of many vegan diets I only eat in moderation because I limit carbohydrates to a certain degree. Thinks like beans, potatoes, rice, etc. And eating that many calories of just 'leafy greens' would be awful. |

But I've been trying to get away from that as much as possible, even if it means using the pressure cooker to cook frozen chicken breasts or something, still an improvement.

10.22.22 | Was a vegan for 6 years. Ended up completely fucked up. And yes, I supplemented B12, K2 and Omega 3. I was doing it more than right since I really wanted it to work but it didn't and it almost kills me in the end. I couldn't digest food my thyroid was completely destroyed and I weighted ridiculously low. I then started to eat meat and eggs again and in a year I had corrected most problems without any pills. Now I've been eating a 99% raw meat, organs, eggs, dairy, fruit diet for 3 years. I think the vegan agenda is a sinister plan that uses our empathy to denaturalize us, make us sick, infertile and dependant on pills. I had vegan friends losing their period and thinking that was normal... No joke. Modern nutrition is totally fucked up and hijacked by Big Pharma but I don't want to talk about it,just read Aajonus Vonderplanitz |

10.22.22 | Veganism origianated as two things:
1. Losing Weight (reasonable)
2. Protecting Animals (stupid - animals were killed for food since the beginning of time) |

10.22.22 | not true |

10.22.22 | I phrased that wrong |

10.22.22 | Veganism is currently based on those two things, along with everyone saying thats how you stay healthy |

10.23.22 | animals were not killed for food since the beginning of time, we obviously first ate the plants which were readily available and don’t require the creation of hunting tools or fire to cook with |

10.23.22 | Dairy consumption causes breast, bladder and colon cancer. Lowest breast and bladder cancer rates are in countries with low milk consumption/ lactose intolerant populations. Maybe not a good idea to ingest a ton of growth hormones made for other mammals? |

"1. Losing Weight (reasonable)

incredibly wrong
1. you can be vegan and eat super unhealthy food, for example pasta and rice every day will make you gain weight
2. killing animals might be ok but what has grown out of control is huge macro farming which is not only cruel to animals by having them in very poor condition but also very detrimental to the environment, generates a lot of waste etc... don't wanna get into a big debate but just pointing out there's a big difference between an animal killed in the paleo and an animal that comes from such farms |

10.23.22 | "Dairy consumption causes breast, bladder and colon cancer" That's pasteurized shit. Pasteurized dairy used to give me acne and all kinds of digestion issues, raw dairy doesn't.
@pollastrerostit Right, industrial farming is terrible. I try to get all my meat from pasture raised animals or hunting. |

So only 99% of dairy found in medium/large cities, ah okay... |

10.23.22 | Netherlands is #1 in breast and bladder cancer for a reason followed by other dairy loving countries like Belgium, France, Denmark, New Zealand etc. If countries as wealthy and civilized as these are not able to control the quality of their dairy then I doubt it's worth taking any risk consuming that shit - unless you have access to pasture raised animals, which is kinda dumb anyway. There's a much easier solution, leave cows and other animals alone = profit. Why not milk your mother/spouse if you want milk? It's far safer and pretty much the same from a moral point of view. |

The industrial modern world is unhealthy af. What a surprise! If we left cows alone they would extinguish. There is middle ground between industrially raised cows and the vegan fairy tale. Meat is a must for truly healthy human beings. I've seen it so many times I'm not even debating it. So much manipulation going on with the vegan agenda, like that Okinawans are vegan BS. All pushed by the anti-human agenda of Billy Gates and all those psychos. |

O shit so that must be the reason why I fucking died last week |

10.23.22 | Unhealthy people do not instantly die. They will just eat garbage slave foods like sugar, grains and caffeine to be productive and will develop all kinds of health issues that will lead them to depend on big pharma pills. They will live all their lives thinking that's the normal way of life, completely unaware of how different things could be... |

10.23.22 | I think it’s obvious dairy is bad for you from the way it tastes. nothing that good can be healthy, life just doesn’t work that way |

Even though nutrition is important to having a healthy life, exercising is also a must, you can have the healthiest diet in the world but at the of the day, what use does it have if people keep on being couch potatos (pun somewhat intended)? |
Frost15
10.23.22 | "vegetarians live longer on average so this can't be true." That's not facts at all. You can find studies saying otherwise too. That's why I don't normally trust studies. Too often they are sponsored to confirm a certain bias or to promote some agenda. I like to reach conclusions by personal experimentation and research. I've met lots of elderly people and EVERY 95 plus person I've ever come across ate considerable amounts of meat. Actually their diets when they were kids would impress most people here. It's funny how much BS is spreaded nowadays when it comes to food and longevity, like the Okinawans being vegetarians, when they ate lots of raw pork and fish. |

10.23.22 | I’ve been a vegan and vegetarian for long periods of time and now I eat meat again so I feel like I’m pretty unbiased here and these are my main points to make
1) veganism is perfectly healthy if planned properly and if you put in enough work to make sure you’re getting enough calories, fat and protein
2) if you’re very active or lift a lot and need a high protein intake, veganism is hard. it’s possible but you gotta be willing to eat tons of beans and shit like that every day. I was a vegetarian from 18-24, and now I’m eating chicken again and I’m in the best shape of my life
3) despite that, it doesn’t mean veganism is worse, it’s just worse for certain people depending on their lifestyle and eating habits |
