no one is saying go on an all meat diet but vegan diets are not as healthy as an omnivore diet and are lacking in nutrients that plants simply can not provide.

 

 

 

saying meat cause cancer is simply false, see above.

 

 

that's simply false.

Plant based diet? Is that a new term for being a vegetarian?

 

Not sure.  I think it might just mean "Eat food.  Mostly plants.  Not too much" as Michael Pollan suggested in his bestseller, "In Defense of Food" ie 2/3 of the plate is veggies and salad, good portion of some high quality protein, small portion of whole-grain or starch (quinoa or wild rice or whole-grain bread or sweet potato)

Don't get fixated on protein, it's one of those urban legend type things. Just eat a normal, healthy diet and you'll have plenty of protein. I've been vegan for years and my protein levels are right where they should be.

^^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^^

 

I have been Whole Food Plant Based for a full year. No meat (beef, poultry, pork, fish, etc.), no dairy. Plus no gluten.

 

Just got test results and protien and calcium levels are well within the normal range.

 

Where do you think these guys get protein to grow their muscles?

NO.

 

Whole Food Plant Based (WFPB) diet means NO meat (beef, poultry, fish, pork, eggs, etc), NO dairy (cheese, milk, butter, anything made with milk products). NO oils. Little to no sugars. Little to no processed foods.

 

Vegans eat no meat or dairy. They eat oil and sugar.

 

Vegitarians only cut meat from diet.  They do eat dairy.

I just found it perfect that John eats the same three foods every night. He is the only guy I know that can convince himself it will taste good time and time again. Brochally is the best. Chicken made the Pro Bowl. Rice is going to surprise people.

Too bad because eggs are a tremendous source of protein.

they are also a cause of high cholesterol which can lead to heart disease. So it's better to get your protein without the heart disease risk.

What I would avoid is statin drugs.

Bull shat broccoli is not even a good source of protein, this is the real fake news.

 

Beans/legumes are the only good source of plant protein, you would have to eat 100 heads of broccoli to get the same amount of protein as a steak and then it would be an incomplete protein.

 

meat is the beast source of protein because it s muscle, just like the ones our body has.

we obviously disagree.  Red meat is also the best source of high cholesterol and heart disease.

guess what we are not cows. Go ahead and eat grass ALL day and see how that goes.

 

Veganism is  just another cult.

 

I'm out.

Wrong sugar, smoking and inactivity are .

 

cholesterol is not bad for you, learn real science.

It's funny watching people debate veganism against ketogenic, both work if you follow the program correctly. It comes down to this: If you go high carbs, you must go low fat. If you go high fat, you must go low carbs.

 

It's that simple.

Cook the chicken in extra virgin olive oil, add one package of frozen spinach, mushrooms, garlic, pepper, Italian seasoning. All in one big pan on the stove. 

 

In in another pan boil your rice, in the third pan goes the water for the broccoli.

 

Combine all 3 in a big plastic bowl, mix, eat for a week. Yum.
