>>38385>>38386I gave the vegan diet a genuine try actually. I did the research to balance the foods, bought a cookbook, the whole deal. If you actually want to eat properly and vegan it's significantly more effort. Going on a vegan diet is good, if you are able to do it. Advising people that they can just stop eating animal products without further thought can be genuinely dangerous (mainly due to certain nutrient deficiencies), but only and specifically toward people who actually will do what you want people to do…
This is specifically a "vegan fitness" thread. Nutrition is one of the cornerstones of health, so to balk against the subject in a thread about fitness is totally out of place. Somebody cutting animal products out of their diet is not automatically eating healthy, in the same way that somebody on a regular diet who simply stops drinking idk soda is not automatically healthy. Eating nutritious food is generally going to be at least a bit more expensive and require more effort + time investment learning about the subject. If you want to screech about meat eaters go make a veganism general. The original subject line (before moved to /hobby/) was "vegan fitness/bodybuilding."
Bodybuilding in particular requires good attention to nutrition, down to things like meal timing. Vegan bodybuilding is 100% doable, but it does require more effort than non-vegan bodybuilding. Arguing otherwise is infantile and only makes the lifestyle choice more unapproachable to people.
>>38389>Advising people that they can just stop eating animal products without further thought can be genuinely dangerous (mainly due to certain nutrient deficiencies)Continuing to consoom animal products is much worse. It should be stopped cold turkey, I did. I used to eat a crapton of chicken, eggs, and beef to gain mass and last I checked my cholesterol and blood pressure were borderline heart attack levels. I immediately went vegan and feel much better.
To successfully permabulk and actually live a normal lifespan, the only real diet option IS veganism. This is largely why most bodybuilders die of heart attacks at 50, but of course people just solely blame the steroids without ever considering how much they fucked their health by eating a crapton of steaks and chicken every week to maintain their mass. And nutritional deficiencies are far easier than meatcels make it seem, just buy a multivite or a supplement for whatever you'll need. picrel proof
>>38391i gotchu.
Garbanzo bean salad sammich:
1 can garbanzo beans drained
some vegan mayo and honey mustard
chop some onions
add some relish spices and cranberries
Roughly 500 cals
Mash and put inbetween bread and eat.
overnight oats:
1 cup oats
A few tablespoons of chia seed
1 cup of milk alternative (i like rice)
a bit of coconut yogurt
frozen berries/walnuts/almond butter whatever topping u want
500-600cals depending on what you put
Unfortunately the driving force of history is conditions of production and not ideas, so animal exploitation will continue until technology renders it obsolete (simultaneously normalizing a vegan morality as a result of the new material conditions) but abstaining from animal products is still very noble and praiseworthy.
Here are some vegan recipes which I make a lot (most meals I eat are vegan, but I still eat dairy occasionally, especially at restaurants):
tofu, rice, and broccoli (or peas)
chickpea curry
lentils and rice (you can put whatever vegetables you have around in this, very convenient and easy)
beans and rice
black bean burrito
lentil soup
black bean soup
falafel and rice with some vegetable (broccoli and brussel sprouts are my favorites)
Put garlic, onion, and tomato in everything you eat, eat lots of legumes, and eat a wide variety of fruits and vegetables. I didn't really start getting into nutrition or cooking until after I stopped eating meat, and it was one of the best decisions in my life. I highly recommend eating a varied, mostly plant-based diet of whole foods, with lots of vegetables and legumes. It's cheaper, healthier, more ethical, and better for the environment than your typical diet.
>>38399There are two pita places near me, and 99% of the time I go to one of them if I want to eat but I don't want to cook. I could eat falafel pita wraps with hummus, cucumber, and tomato every single day of my life. It's so fucking good.
>>38404>>38388Dawg, being vegan is good and all but you are extremely naive if you actually believe this is true. This kind of worship of veganism as a magic bullet scares the normies away because they can smell the cult brain on you. This isn't even the actual claim being made in the video or the studies. "Can help prevent" or "can help treat" DOES NOT MEAN that it's going to fix you (especially not by itself). Mitigating risk factors is not the same thing as "preventing" a cause of death, let alone reversing one. And that's to say nothing of the way he frames the question of diet vs medication, as if diet can be a complete replacement for medication when it absolutely cannot.
This man (Michael Greger) is widely known to exaggerate his claims, cherrypick data, and has named his non-profit in a way that is clearly intended to make people think it's associated with the Nutrition Facts labels on food, to make it seem more legitimate. Vegan diets absolutely can be healthier than standard diets, but this shit is dishonest, irresponsible, and bad for veganism. It is primarily going to make current vegans feel validated and make veganism appear more cultish towards outsiders.
>>38407Chicken has a ton of saturated fat, especially at the quantities that a bodybuilder qould eat to gain or maintain mass. And dietary cholesterol in chicken is insanely high, though the science is still hazy on whether its a direct link
>>38410Im not being cultish, I ate meat up until a month ago. The proof is in the pudding though, the meal plan I had with meat was fucking my cholesterol and blood pressure and it is a scientific fact that animal products are the cause of cholesterol.
I created a vegan meal plan instead and am eating roughly the same calories without the negative health effects. Why would I ever go back to eating meat aside for 'taste,' which I dont care about? Ive been bbing a while so switching up diets is easy for me, it just takes a tiny bit more effort to make the vegan meal plan as opposed to the meat one. And the recommended amount of protein that bodybuilders tout is BS, natural bodybuilders dont need that much and the only thing they'll do by eating that much meat is give themselves a heart attack early which is pretty common. You can get the same amount of protein easy with lentils/beans/chickpeas so its all good
>>38402>I didn't really start getting into nutrition or cooking until after I stopped eating meat, and it was one of the best decisions in my life. I highly recommend eating a varied, mostly plant-based diet of whole foods, with lots of vegetables and legumes.Same, I agree. I'm only a month in and feel the same way. My skin is already glowing and my blood pressure dropped. I used to wake up with headaches and shit and that stopped. Though ngl, I feel bad because I already feel like I probably fucked my health and arteries already.
I dont like red lentils much, but split chickpeas are great. Garbanzo beans and hummus veggie wraps are good too. I add some avocados and hummus with cucumbers tomatos and red onions for a quick 500 calorie wrap
>>38410>This isn't even the actual claim being made in the video or the studies.That is what the color coding corresponded to. Watch the video. The highlighting isn't something I added. He marked yellow each one veganism prevents (as in lowers risk), marked cyan each one veganism treats (as in makes less bad), and marked red each one veganism reverses (as in helps you recover from).
> "Can help prevent" or "can help treat" DOES NOT MEAN that it's going to fix yougood thing I didn't say that
>Mitigating risk factors is not the same thing as "preventing" a cause of death, let alone reversing one.I was using the word "prevent" as in the sense of "preventative care" which means the same thing as mitigating risk factors. Just watch the video. I'm using the word "prevent" in the same way as the medical doctor giving the presentation did.
>This kind of worship of veganism as a magic bullet scares the normies away because they can smell the cult brain on you. I'm not even a vegan, nor do I worship veganism as a "magic bullet". I'm considering becoming one. how am I "scaring normies" away from a "cult" when in fact I'm a "normie" who is considering becoming vegan? I was literally commenting on the video because it convinced me to become vegan. Yet you're accusing a person who's considering becoming vegan of scaring people away from veganism? you make no sense.
>>38421>Saturated fat is not in itself unhealthylmao. ok eat a gallon of ice cream every day and follow up with some bloodwork in a year.
>90% of americans eat sugar, processed foods and live an inactive lifestyle.Yes the burgers are the shining example, the epitome of health and fitness. their saturated fat consumption has nothing to do with half of their country being lardasses and dying of strokes.
>yoga is health>broscience>just exercise broooSeems like the saturated fat is already clogging ur braincells
>>38428>>Saturated fat is not in itself unhealthy [omitted part] Eating sugar or processed foods while saturated fat is also part of your diet, while living an inactive lifestyle, is unhealthy>lmao. ok eat a gallon of ice cream every day and follow up with some bloodwork in a year.Ice cream (in almost all cases) has both sugar and saturated fat in large amounts. That's exactly what anon was talking about.
>hurr durr is fat clogging ur brain?Did you run out of blood sugar before you could finish reading the post?
>>38429>Ice cream (in almost all cases) has both sugar and saturated fat in large amounts. That's exactly what anon was talking aboutOk eat a pack of bacon every day then and see how healthy you get, no sugar but tons of saturated fat.
What kind of retarded argument is that, "hurr durr its not saturated fat its just the other stuff that comes with it." Every food has multiple ingredients in it, the problem is the saturated fat and more specifically saturated fat from meat since it raises bad cholesterol without raising the good.
>Did you run out of blood sugar before you could finish reading the post?The diabetic retinopathy have you incapable of reading between lines?
Argument presented against/restrictions on veganism itt:
>It's costly<One in time, seeing how you need to research to make a nutritious diet so you don't do "Chips and beer veganism", plus time to research how to cook that stuff<But also in actual cost, which goes hand in hand on the time issue since you need to research the sources of cheap food<Both issues, which can be over come, are massive hurdles that only privliged people can really accomplish. A situation as low income high hour workers, or those not in food deserts – will prevent them from being vegans.>This is also ignoring that the junk food is designed to be addictive as possible, and is defended on the nonsense of will power – (it's easier to stop yourself from eating cookies when you're not in the room with the treats than it is to be in the room with them). >These issues, again, not impossible to overcome – are overclocked in building a diet that can sustain massive exercise.>Also veganism has an issue on hypeIncomplete issue mentioned:
>>38380 Idk if issue is similar to the nonsense of overpopulation, or shitpost, idk lol.
The
COUNTERS get ready folks!
Here. We. Go!
>>38381 Straw man that kill animals for just enjoyment.
Also inadvertaly plays pro-life crap of pretending that animals are observed as an equal to human as if this is an argument that hasn't been made yet.
>>38383 Insanely incomplete diet explanation, and repsonse that is a local solution
>>38385 Straw man, and also fucking mental breakdown, of someone DARING to wanting to have a complete diet! Anti-porn level behavior.
>>38387 Straw man on burger meat being the exact same as the ones used in McDonalds. Also, no understanding that the big issue is the sides.
>>38388 Failed to argue position, drops video instead of explaining args in video, inadvertently admitting they don't know themselfs.
>>38395 Fails to respond to transition of the diet. Because when you switch to veganism you magically know everything needed to succeed in second.
>To successfully permabulk and actually live a normal lifespan, the only real diet option IS veganism. This is largely why most bodybuilders die of heart attacks at 50<No backing>but of course people just solely blame the steroids without ever considering how much they fucked their health by eating a crapton of steaks and chicken every week to maintain their mass<Because considering that people have eaten chicken for thousands of years did not cause issues until steroids came into the picture is irrational.>And nutritional deficiencies are far easier than meatcels make it seem, just buy a multivite or a supplement for whatever you'll need. picrel proof<The vegan diet is possible! But also you need vitamins so it's actually not possible and we're lieing. WEEEEEEEEEEE veganism best diet!!!!!!!!>>38402Has issue like
>>38381 on just humanizing the animals already.
Still good post.
>>38404I'm a no life, so I'll watch the video at some point – that said, this is a very incomplete image that doesn't justify veganism.
Further, these benefits gained because veganism is incompatable with, lets say, eating pink slim, something that also can be done with diets that include meat?
The red flag shines brightly: "prevents diabes" – fucking why? Sugar is vegan, that will fuck you up. Fucking christ.
>>38409>Dead video.Lmao. Fucking use yt-dlp, or PRESENT the arguments from the video, fucking loser.
>>38411>The proof is in the pudding though<Except your pudding is at your house<Except "though the science is still hazy on whether its a direct link"<Except "I created a vegan meal plan instead and am eating roughly the same calories without the negative health effects" even though this pudding is no where on this page, or the pudding that others can create it. >>38415Similar issues with
>>38404 and
>>38409>>38428This:
>>38429 highlights it, but it was an incomplete comment.
Saturated fats aren't just in junk food – such as coconut – and as such the problem is that junk food.
Maybe talk to a NUTRIONist before acting smug.
>>38430Straw man argument eating bacon is given the okay to eat because saturated fats aren't being blindly comdemed.
>What kind of retarded argument is that, "hurr durr its not saturated fat its just the other stuff that comes with it."Veganisms weakness: people being allowed to research.
>>38431From where?
How does it answer about saturated fats that aren't just in meat?
Is this quote even correct?
Answer: Lol!
>>38433No argument presented on India's diet, strawman on if not Indian diet ergo eat Mcdonalds only.
Good response:
>>38434Holy shit, you'd think these posts were made by people who wanted to slander veganism.
Obviously, not all vegans, even some in this thread were good – but holy shit, actually get help levels of brain damage.
That wasn't a joke, get help>>38439Not when you consider the nutritional value in relation to money cost. imagine paying more for less nutrients, which is what vegans do.
Vegans also have to supplement their nutritional lackings with supplements.
>>38440>imagine paying more for less nutrients, which is what vegans do. They don't though.
>Vegans also have to supplement their nutritional lackings with supplements.Supplements are cheap.
>>38441> ive seen many vegans give themselves diabetesyou probably haven't "seen" a single vegan give themselves diabetes. You probably don't even know a single vegan. You probably are just repeating shitty talking points you heard. The only vegans who end up with diabetes are the ones who eat too many sweets instead of vegetables.
>They supplant essential meats for excess fruits and grainMeats aren't essential and excess grain/fruit is bad whether you're vegan or not. Eat the vegetables.
>meat is essential cuz uh uh uh muh proteineat some nuts

>>38435>Has issue like >>38381 on just humanizing the animals already.Animals don't need to be exactly like humans to be worthy of moral consideration. It would indeed be anthropomorphization to demand that animals have the right to vote, or that they should pay taxes, but to deny them the status of moral patienthood altogether is spurious. The claim that animal agriculture is immoral is justified by the immense suffering endured by animals in factory farms. The reason it's wrong to cause suffering to animals is the same as the reason why it's wrong to cause suffering to humans, because suffering is terrible. No humanization is necessary to oppose cruelty to pigs and cows, just like no humanization is necessary to oppose cruelty to cats and dogs.
>Straw man that kill animals for just enjoyment.I guess farm animals are slaughtered for profit, not enjoyment, but I hardly see how that justifies anything. And you don't need to value an animal life the same as a human life to oppose killing animals. I don't value the life of my pet bunny as much as the life of my mother, but I'd rather not kill either one.

They chronically suffer from anemia as well, thanks to iron deficiency.

Pecans have less than 1g net carb. I bet you dont even know what net carb means. TVP and tofu have about the same. Low carb vegan diets exist too.
Also keep seething about carbs and following broscience and eating unnecessary amounts of protein and having it convert to fat.
>>38464I show you several studies and evidence that vegans have lower rates of diabetes and all you can say is "lol pseudoscience."
meanwhile you simultaneously say vegans don't get enough carbs, but that legumes are too heavy in carbs and therefore vegans are diabetics.
>>38464>Lots of vegans die young as wellsource? at a higher rate than most people? seriously doubt it.
>The many causes of which are expounded upon above.Cite a single source. I cite sources but you just vomit out the word "pseudoscience" in response
If vegans die young it's because of shit unrelated to veganism like drugs/alcohol/not enough exercise/not eating enough/eating too much. technically alcohol is vegan but any vegan will tell you alcohol is bad for you. veganism isn't a magic bullet. you still have to use common sense. Technically a lot of peanut butters are vegan, but you shouldn't just eat peanut butter all day. That's a good way to get diabetes.
>This is textbook straw man fallacy. I eat the finest omnivore cuisine, not that garbage.

It was totally unrelated to my diet because I ate a ton of sources of B-12, both Vegan and non-vegan.
>>38466>Literally insane. yes because the group most known for diabetes is… vegans. Lmao retard.The vegan group is most known for starving themselves and their children to death.
>And what do you think glucose is retard? So is it still incorrect?Do you actually believe that glucose = carbs??? Retard. "Excess" protein is NOT transformed into carbs and carbohydrates are NOT glucose. Therefore, it IS incorrect.
>As if you know a vegan cant just simply.. eat more? This would simply accelerate their diabetes, and they still wouldn't even be getting the essential nutrients from their food alone.
>And gtfo out of here with attractive, you're skin is probably trash and have bacne all over. Ad-hominem fallacy. Every vegan I've ever seen is both unattractive and mentally ill, mainly due to the fact that their bodies are failing them due to lack of nutrients. Vegans often do have bacne, because they lack nutrients which maintain healthy skin. These problems stop immediately when vegans start getting their nutrients naturally.
>Literally retarded. Pecans have less than 1g net carb. I bet you dont even know what net carb means. TVP and tofu have about the same. Low carb vegan diets exist too. >Also keep seething about carbs and following broscience and eating unnecessary amounts of protein and having it convert to fat.It isn't your fault. You are vegan and your brain is in decay this very moment - lest you take your supplements. Continue eating your overpriced animal feed and telling yourself that you actually are eating healthy.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7370013/<Background: Vegetarian and vegan weaning have increasing popularity among parents and families. However, if not correctly managed, they may lead to wrong feeding regimens, causing severe nutritional deficiencies requiring specific nutritional support or even the need for hospitalization. Aim: To assess the prevalence of vegetarian and vegan weaning among Italian families and to provide an up-to-date narrative review of supporting evidence. Materials and methods: We investigated 360 Italian families using a 40-item questionnaire. The narrative review was conducted searching scientific databases for articles reporting on vegetarian and vegan weaning. Results: 8.6% of mothers follow an alternative feeding regimen and 9.2% of infants were weaned according to a vegetarian or vegan diet. The breastfeeding duration was longer in vegetarian/vegan infants (15.8 vs. 9.7 months; p < 0.0001). Almost half of parents (45.2%) claim that their pediatrician was unable to provide sufficient information and adequate indications regarding unconventional weaning and 77.4% of parents reported the pediatrician’s resistance towards alternative weaning methods. Nine studies were suitable for the review process. The vast majority of authors agree on the fact that vegetarian and vegan weaning may cause severe nutritional deficiencies, whose detrimental effects are particularly significant in the early stages of life. Discussion and conclusion: Our results show that alternative weaning methods are followed by a significant number of families; in half of the cases, the family pediatrician was not perceived as an appropriate guide in this delicate process. To date, consistent findings to support both the safety and feasibility of alternative weaning methods are still lacking. Since the risk of nutritional deficiencies in the early stages of life is high, pediatricians have a pivotal role in guiding parents and advising them on the most appropriate and complete diet regimen during childhood. Efforts should be made to enhance nutritional understanding among pediatricians as an unsupervised vegetarian or vegan diet can cause severe nutritional deficiencies with possible detrimental long-term effects.>>38471>Nutritional yeast has more b12 than many meats and kale has more bioavailable calcium than milk.<Nutritional values for nutritional yeast vary from one manufacturer to another. On average, two tablespoons (about 30 ml) provides 60 calories with five grams of carbohydrates <Raw kale is composed of 84% water, 9% carbohydrates, 4% protein, and 1% fat (table).Enjoy your diabetes. Imagine eating carbs by the spoonful. Don't you now see how your shitty vegan diet forces you into either diabetes or imminent bodily failure? I have proven how vegans are demonstrably nutritionally illiterate.
>>38476Are you aware that babies are supposed to drink their mother's milk? How do you expect them to randomly die without animal products?
Oh never mind, you're clearly just trolling at this point
>>38478"managed correctly" actually means giving your baby the nutrients which a vegan diet lacks. This could be accomplished more easily by just not being vegan.
>>38477Excellent point. Vegan parents MUST pay more just to keep their kids breathing.

>>38480>what a retard, as expected. go read the wiki or do a definition search of glucose brainlet. Pick up a biology textbook, retard. Carbohydrates are broken down into glucose. I will define exactly what a carbohydrate is:
<A carbohydrate is a biomolecule that consists of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, with a hydrogen-oxygen atom ratio of 2:1, and has at least two monomeric units joined by glycosidic bonds.Glucose does not have at least two monomeric units joined by glycosidic bonds.

>Vegans dont have a high diabetes rate sperg. Cry harder.You type feebly, as you consoom your supplements to survive. Your hair falls out. Underneath your stricken and discolored skin, your brittle bones break down further. You exhale meekly, then eat highly processed, carb-rich food just to stay awake - for even longer, to explain how good your vegan diet is.
>Yeah you got proven wrong like a retard with lard for brain so now youre just crying. Cry harder meatlet. Demonstrate where you believe you've "proven me wrong". I've already proven you wrong, tenfold.
>Yeah it was totally the vegan diet that killed the children and not the…child abuse. Kill yourself you disingenuous illiterate cretin.Veganism to children is no different from child abuse. Extreme veganism to a child is extreme child abuse, and concludes only in murder. That's what the scientists who study veganism and its effects on children have concluded at least.
>Yeah we should totally listen to you on diabetes, the retard who doesn't know what a carbohydrate is. Just lmao. Kill yourselfYou actually think that glucose is a carbohydrate. You're nutritionally retarded: you're vegan. I'd also tell you to kill yourself, but just keep being vegan.
>>38482>You have to be trolling<A carbohydrate is a biomolecule that consists of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, with a hydrogen-oxygen atom ratio of 2:1, and has at least two monomeric units joined by glycosidic bonds.<The term "carbohydrate" often means any food that is particularly rich in the complex carbohydrate starch (such as cereals, bread and pasta) or simple carbohydrates, such as sugar (found in candy, jams, and desserts).Glucose fits into neither definition. Therefore, saying glucose is a carbohydrate is like calling a brick a house.
>>38485The vegan who eats pounds rice and beans a day is still starving no matter how much they eat, because they're starving themselves of essential nutrients by being vegan.
>>38488This is actually a self-own on your part. The picture you share explains that "AN AVERAGE SERVING OF VEGETABLES COSTS FOUR TIMES MORE THAN AN AVERAGE SERVING OF JUNK FOOD". This means the vegetable diet is FOUR times more expensive on average than the junk food diet. The made up "nutrition" metric is irrelevant to the cost, which is the actual question.
>>38489See the attached picture. Omega-3 is an essential nutrient. Read any fucking textbook.
>>38490They DO pay more for less calories. THAT IS LITERALLY WHAT THE PICTURE YOU"vE SHARED STATES. PSEUDOSCIENCE, ALL OF IT
>>38491>They DO pay more for less calories. THAT IS LITERALLY WHAT THE PICTURE YOU"vE SHARED STATES. PSEUDOSCIENCE, ALL OF ITIt's pseudoscience but you agree with its conclusions? If you made it through the whole picture you'd realize that
calories per unit of weight is besides the point. Vegetables despite being less calorie dense are much more
nutrient dense.Focusing solely on calorie density… That's an 1800s way of determining the value of a food. Back before we knew what vitamins were, back before widespread refrigeration, back before transportation networks and massive global industrial surpluses of food. Back when people had trouble eating the bare minimum requisite number of calories per day, let alone investigating the nutrition value of their food. And even setting aside the question of vitamins there are also a lot of nutrients in Vegan foods that can't be found in meats, such as the lignan compounds found in flax seeds which reduce the risk of several forms of digestive cancers.
I would actually agree that being Vegan was not only harder but way more potentially deadly before current times. Advances in refrigeration, transportation, nutrition science, agriculture, etc have made it a lot easier to be Vegan, both in the imperial core and in the imperial periphery.
Despite, on average, being less calorie dense, vegetables are more nutrient-dense, which is more important. Whatever
calories you fail to get from
highly nutrient-dense vegetables can be made up for with calorie-dense Vegan foods like nuts, rice, beans instead of highly carcinogenic meats which are bad for your circulatory system and frankly not that calorie-dense anyway.
Regarding carbs/sugars. Carbs and sugars are less dangerous and less correlated with diabetes when they are distributed over a high fiber intake. You digest them slower and so you don't flood your circulatory system with sugar as quickly. This is why 3 tablespoons of sugar in a fruit is less dangeorus than 3 tablespoons of sugar in a coca cola. The speed at which your body processes something matters a lot.
<Studies show that if you drink a glass of water with three tablespoons of sugar (similar to what would be in a can of fizzy drink), you’ll have a big spike in your blood sugar levels within the first hour. That causes your body to release so much insulin to mop up the excess sugar that you actually overshoot and become hypoglycemic by the second hour, meaning that your blood sugar drops even lower than it would if you were fasting. Your body detects this low blood sugar, thinks you might be in some sort of famine situation, and responds by dumping fat into your bloodstream as an energy source to keep you alive. >>38491>Pick up a biology textbook, retard. Carbohydrates are broken down into glucose. I will define exactly what a carbohydrate is: A carbohydrate is a biomolecule that consists of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, with a hydrogen-oxygen atom ratio of 2:1, and has at least two monomeric units joined by glycosidic bonds. Glucose does not have at least two monomeric units joined by glycosidic bonds. Glucose itself is a monomeric unit. Glucose is not a carbohydrateYou are completely retarded and proven yourself as such to everyone here. Dont act like posting science you dont understand will hide your obvious retardation. Monosaccharides are carbohydrates- period. You disgusting retard, the meat has already rotted half your brain.
Im done talking with you brainlet, dont blab about diabetes when you have no fucking clue what a carb is or understand basic science.
>Monosaccharides and disaccharides, the smallest (lower molecular weight) carbohydrates, are commonly referred to as sugars. >>38437>>38438Lmao.
Especially when you get posts like these:
>>38493 >>38458>Oh? You don't subscribe to veganism>Then that means you eat unhelathy food and refuse to touch salads!<What????? That's a strawman??? Ummmmmm, you're the strawman actqually!!!! >>38439The point was that privliged folk are the ones that can handle the experimental cost of transitioning to a vegan diet.
Similar to that of the 60-80h a week proletariot who doens't have enough time to read theory, and needs a communist to help awaken their class consiousness and give that worker the ability to be self-relient on further understanding of theory.
Not surprising you can't understand this when you say
>fruits/grains/veggies are always cheaper than animal productsJesus fucking christ, look up food deserts.
>>38445Even if they don't need to be on the same viewing as another human, the issue is that what leads people to be okay with killing animals is that it's seen as a requirement since of the limitation of society, and vegans just don't understand that view point existence so they instead play a moral card and make themselves look out of touch.
This same thinking is present in those twitter debates on it being more or less moral to kill or have sex with an animal, where it's clear that it's less bad to have sex with an animal than killing it since it's better to be raped than to be murdered, but since sex with animals isn't needed for society it's seen as worse.
>I guess farm animals are slaughtered for profit, not enjoyment, but I hardly see how that justifies anythingI wasn't justifying the killing of animals for the bourgeosis / the profit motive, I was explaining that this isn't how the average prole approaches the rational of killing animals.
>>38443Christ the fumble.
Everything was going good until the image.
Yeah we see the data on veganists having lower diabetus, and assuming not wrong, the problem is that it doesn't answer if the health benefits are just in veganism like I've stated.
Vegans for instance usually skip on soda, so the health benefits of that are seen in this, but such a health benefit can be observed outside of veganism.
I'd talk about more posts, but I have a Kaiji clip to re-watch
watching the bridge clip since part 4 highlights it for why Kaiji trusts his comrades + powerful scene, and some pomodoros to complete.
>>38492>It's pseudoscience but you agree with its conclusions? If you made it through the whole picture you'd realize that calories per unit of weight is besides the point. Vegetables despite being less calorie dense are much more nutrient dense.Yes, because I only agree with the most obvious truth which it accepts: the vegan diet is more costly in regards to the actual energy content. Vitamins and minerals are not called "nootrition" in actual science textbooks. They are actually called micronutrients, so they hardly matter in relation to actual energy by cost.
>Focusing solely on calorie density… That's an 1800s way of determining the value of a food. Back before we knew what vitamins were, back before widespread refrigeration, back before transportation networks and massive global industrial surpluses of food.

And even setting aside the question of vitamins there are also a lot of nutrients in Vegan foods that can't be found in meats, such as the lignan compounds found in flax seeds which reduce the risk of several forms of digestive cancers.The nootrition metric is absolutely made up. The nootrition metric isn't even relevant, because the cost is the only factor that matters. It is rather strange how the vegan diet is so "nootritious" and such nonsense, yet unsupplemented vegans inevitably lose their hair, their teeth, their minds, etc. if they do not take extra supplements regularly. How is this when the vegan diet is so "nootrient dense"?
>Despite, on average, being less calorie dense, vegetables are more nutrient-dense, which is more important. Whatever calories you fail to get from highly nutrient-dense vegetables can be made up for with calorie-dense Vegan foods like nuts, rice, beans instead of highly carcinogenic meats which are bad for your circulatory system and frankly not that calorie-dense anyway.It would be more cost efficient to recieve the bulk of calories (actual energy) from "junk food", then just add in the minimal of that animal feed to get your daily vitamin and mineral requirements. This would result in the same nutrient intake at a much lower cost.
Meats are vital to the functioning of many systems, but namely the circulatory system. This fact is proven in the fact that vegans must take omega-3 and b-12, etc.
>Regarding carbs/sugars. Carbs and sugars are less dangerous and less correlated with diabetes when they are distributed over a high fiber intake. You digest them slower and so you don't flood your circulatory system with sugar as quickly. This is why 3 tablespoons of sugar in a fruit is less dangeorus than 3 tablespoons of sugar in a coca cola. The speed at which your body processes something matters a lot.Absolutley. However, this is but another example of veganism being more inefficient. The faster the carbohydrates are converted into glucose, the better. I don't have the time to waste for my body to breakdown all of that vegan bullshit.
>>38500>Yes, because I only agree with the most obvious truth which it accepts: the vegan diet is more costly in regards to the actual energy content. Vitamins and minerals are not called "nootrition" in actual science textbooks. This is a vegan swole thread. If you're such a pitiful poorfag it doesnt matter whether you are a vegan or eat at your beloved mcd's all the time. You're not gaining mass. Muscle costs money- period. It is biologically more costly to maintain and to maintain it costs more in food and calories.
However if you anyone can afford to bulk, then they can afford to vegan bulk properly. Also stop coping.
Post you meat based meal plan so we can have a good laugh.
>>38513It does not matter at all if they feel pain or not, that's not the thing.
Things may be forced to enter into different states by the another one's special, specific will.
Veganism is a moralistic philosophy that has nothing to do with us.
You prefer 'animals' over other organisms and have a spooky framework of morality on that.
But me, I like the plants more than the animals. What is just the point of valuing a thing and judging the other for them to not value it? The elegant, poor plant shall not be on ur plate!!1
>>38516>I guess you won't complain…Why wouldn't I tho?
Our pursues would definitely clash in such a situation.
But I can't judge your being if you had such a will of assertion.
>>38513>we have no idea if they can feel pain(Trump voice) "Nobody knew about it, no one knew!"
>>38514>"animals"bruh what lol
>>38524yeah and if we find out that plants can feel pain maybe we'll have to reevaluate but until then its a nothingburger
even if we say plants can feel pain, it takes way more plants to feed livestock than if we just ate plants so veganism is still a positive
>>38501The absolute state of the vegans is even more pitiful; dying, they are.
>>38502I defined exactly what a carbohydrate is within the context of this discussion. You vegan retards actually believe that glucose is a carbohydrate like any other. This is exactly like claiming that a brick is a house.
>>38503Paying four times more for the solely sake of your moral crusade is "plausible for everyone?" No shit you must eat big to get big; the problem with the vegan diet lies within the fact that digesting all of that overpriced animal feed takes longer, costs "four times more for the same energy", is generally worse, etc.
<Post you meat based meal plan so we can have a good laugh.See the attached video. Every day is a wonderful feast for me because I can afford it, because I am not vegan. I eat REAL food. I have the time to maximize my metabolic output, since I am not wasting time and money eating horse-feed and choking down supplements like you. What I eat is not chosen to further my moral crusade; what I eat is determined by purpose.
>>38505If nutrition is the amount of MICRO-nutrients - nutrients that don't even give me any fucking energy, then what even is nutrition??? Nutrition cannot be quantified in such as way. For example, eating the vegan diet often gives TOO MUCH "nutrition", to the point that their diets are inefficient. The body doesn't even break down excess micro-"nutrients" and they begin to build up within the body, causing micro-nutrient toxicities - such as aluminum toxicity or vitamin C or E toxicity; these are common among vegans. They also receive excess metals, because the plants they eat are washed with fertilizers and pesticides, and other poisons. All this is but another cause of common vegan problems, like hair loss, vomiting, etc. These micro-nutrient toxicities only compound the nutrient and micro-nutrient deficiencies which the vegans already have.
>>38506Omega 3 is an essential micro-nutrient, as per any science textbook. Stop screenshotting quack pop-nutrition websites and bring me real sources.
>>38523Those other sources are inefficient, by both COST and DIGESTION TIME. Active human beings don't have the time or money to eat that overpriced pig-feed.
>>38526This source is literally an unaccredited screenshot of some quack pop-science bullshit.
>>38530VEGANISM
1.Requires more land
2. Requires more water
3. Requires more energy to produce the same amount of food
4. Causes soil degradation
5. Causes more greenhouse gas emissions
CARNISM
1. Transforms inedible feed (what vegans eat) into high quality protein
2. Can be utilized in unarable lands, like mountains and hills
3. Enhances soil fertility
4. Prevents erosion
5. Maintains biodiversity

>BUT VEGANISM GIVES MORE MORE MICRO-NUTRIENTS THAT MY BODY DOESN'T NEED AND CAN'T EVEN USE, THEREFORE ITS MORE "NOOTRITIOUS"This is swiftly debunked, as
>Although modeled plants-only agriculture produced 23% more food, it met fewer of the US population's requirements for essential nutrients. When nutritional adequacy was evaluated by using least-cost diets produced from foods available, more nutrient deficiencies, a greater excess of energy, and a need to consume a greater amount of food solids were encountered in plants-only diets. >>38531You sound like a false flag of a non-vegan by a vegan.
>Those other sources are inefficient, by both COST and DIGESTION TIME. Active human beings don't have the time or money to eat that overpriced pig-feed.lolwut
Spinach? Rice? Squash? That list is mostly normal ass veggies and nuts.
>>38532Enjoy paying for and digesting ten cups of uncooked squash a day, every day for the rest of your sad vegan life. The amount of omega-3 with those foods is so low that you will only end up paying more just to stay alive.
>BUT FLAXSEEDThat shit is made for chickens. It is not for human consumption, as it contains many anti-nutrients like phytic acid, lignans, cyanogenic glycosides, etc. I'm not eating cups of raw seed every week just to live when animal products offer more efficient, bio-available sources of omega-3.
>>38537What does any of these have to do with whether or not burgers are deficient in omega-3? And the reason they are deficient in the other things is because of what they
don't eat, not because of what they
do eat. Diet is complicated, there isn't just one omnivore diet and one vegan diet. You can have an omnivore diet without deficiencies or a vegan diet with one.
>>38527>…so this statement is false.Well, still it applies to many ones.
>>38528>Caring about anything is moralism.Not really?
>We don't have to be ashamed of having values. Everyone has values.This is perhaps right, the superstructure/ideology is not something to be realized, but already realized in between of abstract actions.
My point was that veganism isn't any higher of non-vegan style.
The kiss is the beginning of cannibalism)
>>38566>So for anyone claiming vegans are lacking nutrients are full of shit since borgor consoomers are lacking in more nutrients.Nutrients aren't just some vague abstraction covering all sorts of nutrition. They are many specific things and you need to consume all of them. Nobody was saying that the standard USano diet is healthy or healthier than veganism. That's a strawman. The problem is that if you start from an already deficient diet, and place additional restrictions on it (instead of actually building a proper healthy replacement diet) you are at risk of being even more nutrient-deficient.
Again, there is no such thing as a standard vegan diet. Somebody who doesn't now any better and just eats potato chips and beans (or worse meme diets like 40 bananas) is going to make themselves ill. You can build a good diet with all sorts of restrictions on your food, but you have to actually do the work to determine how well your food intake meets those needs. Going vegan is not a magic bullet solution any more than paleo or atkins or low-fat or any other dietary restriction. The entire issue is that in order to meet your nutritional requirements you must
include foods with those nutrients. You can't satisfy
more of your requirements by simply removing foods, or even by replacing those foods without any thought.
>>38567>Nobody was saying that the standard USano diet is healthy or healthier than veganism. That's a strawman. Then you should agree that eating meat is unhealthy since the SAD is mainly typified by meat, dairy and processed food consumption. And there was literally a retard above who is saying eating veggies is animal feed, if anything he is a prime example of a brainwashed burger eating the SAD.
>The problem is that if you start from an already deficient diet, and place additional restrictions on it (instead of actually building a proper healthy replacement diet) you are at risk of being even more nutrient-deficient.Not if the restrictions someone places force them to eat healthier.
>Somebody who doesn't now any better and just eats potato chips and beans (or worse meme diets like 40 bananas) is going to make themselves ill. I agree, the thread is about getting swole and eating a healthy nutritionally rich vegan diet. But instead its been filled with meat eating fatasses throwing poor ass arguments about how their shitty SAD diet is somehow better than a vegan meal plan.
> You can build a good diet with all sorts of restrictions on your food,So you contradicted yourself above and agree.
> Going vegan is not a magic bullet solution any more than paleo or atkins or low-fat or any other dietary restriction. The entire issue is that in order to meet your nutritional requirements you must include foods with those nutrients. You can't satisfy more of your requirements by simply removing foods, or even by replacing those foods without any thoughtBut yes you can, because you are removing some sources that are fucking your health like meat and dairy. So you are satisfying more with less, you are getting more heart health with less saturated fat consumption. Thats even if someones diet was shit to begin with. This is basic harm reduction. And it is a magic bullet because health and biomarkers improve within a week of stopping meat and dairy consumption.
>>38568>Then you should agree that eating meat is unhealthy since the SAD is mainly typified by meat, dairy and processed food consumption.That doesn't follow, nor is it an accurate assessment to begin with of the SAD or what's wrong with it. The problem is primarily a lack of whole food produce and an abundance of more or less empty calories in the form of added sugars and high in saturated fat. That's not specifically a meat issue - excessive saturated fats from coconuts would also be a problem.
>Not if the restrictions someone places force them to eat healthier.>poor ass arguments about how their shitty SAD diet is somehow better than a vegan meal plan.>So you contradicted yourself above and agree.0% reading comprehension.
>But yes you can, because you are removing some sources that are fucking your health like meat and dairy.You don't grasp the basic concept of a nutritional deficiency. You are making up wild strawman arguments against an argument
in favor of a planned vegan diet because you are hung up on the idea of having to think about nutrition. Your cognition is probably suffering from one or more deficiencies because you don't pay attention to your micros and you are showing clear signs of impairment. You are making veganism more offputting to people and more dangerous to people who do want to go vegan by giving anti-advice about nutrition, and you are feeding the "carnist" trolls who are just here to spite you.
>>38577Cooking fruits and vegetables burns away nutrients and is therefore inefficient.
>>38536I didn't fall for anything. I take a scientific approach to optimizing my bio-systems. YOU fell for the vegan meme and look where it got you. Rich Piana did not follow "a meat eater diet". Rich Piana ate balanced and optimal omnivore diet.
>>38538>You are literally retarded, read a book uygha.You are vegan, therefore you are nutritionally retarded.
>Im 100% sure you dont lift and if you do your body looks like trash.ad-hominem fallacy. I am literally riding my cardio bike on maximum level as I type this to you, while my steak cooks in the oven. I'm sure all of your bio-systems are either failing or approaching failure, because you are vegan.
> There is no bb'er in the world who would do the dumb shit youre suggesting.There are so many. You only demonstrate your vegan diet induced retardation by proposing such nonsense.

They must understand how actual material things and forces like caloric density and time are better understood and internalized rather than vegan pseudoscience.
>No one needs quick hits of energy all the time retardRetard, humans who lift MUST consume ENERGY to KEEP LIFTING. THIS IS CONSTANT and PEOPLE who EXERCISE CONSTANTLY MUST CONSUME CONSTANTLY to DEVELOP FASTER
>digestion is a good thing not something which 'costs' have to be accounted for.Is time not accounted for within the vegan mind? Apparently not.
Longer digestion = less eating.
Less eating = less energy.
Less energy = less exercise.
Less exercise = less development.
Vegan foods contain less energy by money cost. THEREFORE, vegans spend LONGER time digesting LESS energy.
>Why dont you just drink sugar syrup for all your calories and call it a day?It doesn't have protein, therefore I could not rebuild the muscle I destroy through exercise. It would just make me fat because it would give me too many carbohydrates. Since this is basically the same outcome as a vegan diet, then why don't vegans just do this instead of being vegan?
>You might as well since you dont know anything about nutrition of bb'ing anyways.The Irony.
>>38580>Cooking fruits and vegetables burns away nutrients and is therefore inefficient.Some, not all nutrients are lost in cooking. Same goes for meat. Even though vegetables lose
some nutrients when cooked, that doesn't mean you should only eat them raw. Cooking vegetables can actually be pretty beneficial. When you cook vegetables, it can actually enhance the absorption of nutrients that are otherwise difficult for your body to process in a raw form — such as beta-carotene (which is important for the skin), lutein (which plays a role in eye health), calcium (which is essential for bone health) and lycopene (which is associated with protection against heart disease cancer).
>>38578>That's not specifically a meat issue - excessive saturated fats from coconuts would also be a problem.No, its specifically a meat issue because the saturated fat in meat is long chain fat and coconut saturated fat is medium. Lots of studies about the harms of meat saturated fat specifically.
>You don't grasp the basic concept of a nutritional deficiency. You are making up wild strawman arguments against an argument in favor of a planned vegan diet because you are hung up on the idea of having to think about nutritionNo u. Prove meat has 'essential nutrients' that people can't get elsewhere.

2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons non-dairy milk, unsweetened and unflavored
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Mash the block of tofu right in the pan, with a potato masher or a fork. You can also crumble it into the pan with your hands. Cook, stirring frequently, for 3-4 minutes until the water from the tofu is mostly gone.
Now add the nutritional yeast, salt, turmeric and garlic powder. Cook and stir constantly for about 5 minutes.
Pour the non-dairy milk into the pan, and stir to mix. Serve immediately with sliced avocado, hot sauce, parsley, steamed kale, toast or any other breakfast item.
Notes
Tofu Scramble is also good with all sorts of vegetables mixed in. Vegetables to add before the tofu: 1/4 cup diced onion or a few cloves of minced garlic. Saute in the oil for 2-3 minutes before adding and mashing the tofu. Vegetables to add towards the end: fresh spinach, kale, thin sliced red peppers, small chopped broccoli or fresh sliced/diced tomatoes. Add these after you've added the milk to the tofu, and cook for just a few minutes.
Omit oil if desired to make the tofu scramble oil free.
You can use any kind of non-dairy milk you like, such as soy, almond, cashew, oat or coconut milk. Just make sure it is unsweetened and unflavored.

>>38600Standard daily caloric intakes are a mere guideline for fat people to not eat themselves to death. A "standard daily caloric intake" CANNOT sustain an active and optimized human being.
>>38606>Still, thats like 2kg gain a week, most of that isnt going to be muscle.Not if he works hard enough. 4300 calories is NOTHING to someone who actually puts in the work. See the attached video. Optimal and active human beings have to chug multiple 1000 calorie protein shakes THROUGHOUT their workouts so they don't shrivel up and die from all the WORK they put in.
>>38598This diet plan epitomizes all of the problems of veganism. Don't be fooled by the whacked percentages. Look at that pitiful protein content - those proteins are hardly even bioavailable as well, in relation to meats I mean, because plant foods are indigestible and therefore the nutrients are less bioavailible. Those vitamins and minerals and shit are HARDLY bioavailible either.
You should take every nutrient and divide it by ten, because nutrients from vegan food aren't bioavailible. The only things that your body can readily absorb from this diet are the carbohydrates. This diet will certainly give you diabetes in the long run, as you're really just eating carbs all day.

Or get his gains, for that matter, unless you had a bit of medicinal help.
Nice trolling anon, here's your (you).

2) That's called a paunch and distends when flexed a specific way (unless its palumboism)
3) Palumboism is a roid related issue almost exclusively, it's unrelated to meat. See

https://legionathletics.com/9-lies-vegans-love-telling/ >>38433 One of my coworkers is an Indian woman through and through, who lives and breathes her culture, including food. Chicken is a massive part of Indian diets, which is a meat and extremely high in proteins. Plant focus in Indian diets is primarily because of historical extreme poverty in the country with famines being common-place and also religious restrictions on the consumption of Cattle.
>>38429 You do realize that part of Bruce Lee's rigid diet was, and I quote, Chocolate Ice Cream, and not that low-fat shit either. I don't think anyone would argue with the statement that Bruce Lee was an example of peak human physical conditioning, dedicated to improving his body, including through diet.
Deficiencies from Vegan diets (such as of B12, proteins and amino acids) cause hair loss (for women and men), hormonal changes, skin issues, hypothyroidism, sarcopenia (muscle loss) osteoporosis, and bone fractures. Vegan diets are also tied to cardiovascular diseases. There is a REASON humans evolved to be omnivores. If you do not want to eat animals that is fine, but do not falsely claim it is healthier, because you're dead wrong, same as any idiot who would claim that only eating meat is good. For example fat is good for the body but too much is bad. The issue is not meat, the issue is processed foods, something that has been apparent to everyone but the mutts since forever, especially in the USSR, hence Soviet people maintaining health while consuming a higher number of calories compared to the USA.

>"faith based" Are you talking about St.Lukes? Because that's not how that works you ignoramus
>blogAs opposed to vegan blogshit?
>supplementsAs opposed to vegan supplement shills?
>a harcare product brand representativeMeaningless, considering most haircare products are plant based anyway.
>simply drinking mineralized waterHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA No. The amount of mineral water (REAL mineral water that is expensive, and not cheap shit) you'd have to drink would be immense. And this is just for normal consumption. Athletes need a much higher nutrient-per-gram coefficient.
>simply eating calcium rich vegan foods Proving the point that to acquire even close to the same amount of nutrients as an omnivorous diet, you have to consume far more, because meat generally has double the amount that plants do, and is easier to digest and process due to the trophic system. It's a biological fact that humans require vitamins that can only come from other animals and lack enzymes for breaking down tough vegetable fiber (which is why we cook most of them, and why we have to consume tremendously more plants to be able to acquire the same amount of nutrients as one would from meat, which is also why obligate herbivores have complex stomachs and consume large amounts of plants constantly. Human brain evolution is linked to the consumption of meat, something that came from the common ancestor we share with our closest primate relatives (chimpanzees) who also feed on meat when possible and have been observed using intelligent hunting behaviors to acquire it (such as using wooden spears). We have higher acidity of stomach acid than even some obligate predators to let us break down a larger variety of food items. It's also why all prehistoric human societies started as hunter-gatherers and even when agriculture developed, animal domestication followed. Even Asians, whose cultures don't have as much meat in their dishes as European countries, places importance on meat, and Asian countries consumed less meat in part due to it being harder to acquire or domesticate in large quantities in their environment. Japan particularly is an example of this due to being an archipelago with limited ability to keep livestock and so relied more on fish to supplement their diets. Ancient Japanese peasantry and other lower-class members of the population had poorer health than the upper class, primarily because the feudal system placed priority on the nobility getting food first and they could eat a full diet, while most farmers had to live on plants and rice almost exclusively, which lead to hair-loss, poor tooth health, small size and fragile bones. Biology and material reality doesn't care about your opinion.
Regardless you've evaded addressing any of the main points, mine or the articles linked by, as I stated, using the fallacy of attacking the source, without actually contending the arguments made. Furthermore none of the articles even imply that vegetables and eating healthy is bad, you're just ass-mad that they're defying your bohemian, First-World schtick of "only plants". Non-meat B12 only exists in certain algae (which aren't consumed directly by anyone that isn't a richfag lifestylist), at least two necessary amino acids are completely nonexistent among consumable plants and only found in meats, particularly fish and eggs. etc.
>>43362You dont need to be a good cook to be vegan. My todays lunch (and for next three days) is a vegetable soup with textured vegetable protein. Literally just throw bunch of ingredients into a pot, with some salt and black pepper. Tastes great, somehow. Scratches that peasant part of your brain.
And if you really need grease, add bunch of oil (at least use rapeseed) to whatever meat replacement.
>>43360>nobody ever argued vegan diet has B12 in it More than one vegan has argued that it "provides all the essential nutrients" and what have you.
>mineralize your water with calcium carbonate powder Not naturally however, which is my point. The most natural mineralized water I can think of does not have nearly the amount necessary. Again proving my point that the diet is not a full one and REQUIRES supplementation to provide enough nutrients and even then it's not the same.
>I would really like to hear which two essential amino acids you think are not present in plants. DHA (docosahexaenoic acid i.e. Omega 3). The only plant life to have it are some strains of algae, which are prohibitively expensive. And inb4 ALA, ALA does not cover the same areas as DHA and the human body converts it very poorly. The amount of nuts, flax and chia seeds you need to consume to produce enough DHA as a result would be far outside possibility.
Also Vitamin D3, which can only be supplemented for vegans, not consumed as part of a diet.
This is just for regular people. For athletes this actually goes higher. Heme Fe, Zinc and other nutrients that are required in higher amounts (up to doulbe the norm) by athletes and very physically active people are hard to acquire from a vegan diet, requiring supplementation. Supplement pills and shit like that are NOT part of a diet, they aren't food, they're additives addressing the lacking parts of a vegan diet.
Again I reiterate, if you want to do this, that's on you, but rather than calmly discussing food and diets, some posters ITT think they're so clever by trying to diss meat and non-vegan diets as if they're worse, while using the most retarded examples to "prove" their points - processed foods consumed by burgers are not a typical diet around the world, contrary to the apparent opinion of some America-centric posters here.
I repeat the part about diet
>>43372Where the fuck do you think those animals you eat get their vitamins? B12 is supplemented, calcium is suplemented, D3 is supplemented. Somehow eating these poor degenerated beings ridden with genetic defects, fed on gruel and powders and hormones is perfectly ok, but putting fucking calcium powder in tapwater is horrible violation of natural order.
>inb4 I get my meat from my uncles Happy FarmOverwhelming majority of all meat production worldwide comes from factory farms.
https://ourworldindata.org/how-many-animals-are-factory-farmedWhen we talk about diet we can either evaluate health outcomes on average, which vegans clearly win over omnivores
https://r.jordan.im/download/nutrition/dinu2017.pdf, or potential optimal health, in which case supplements are completely fair game because the whole point is min-maxxing the diet. Nobody is clutching their pearls how omnivorous diet is "sub-optimal" because bodybuilders take creatine and protein powder, but the moment it comes to B12 pills, God protect.
All your post are the same disingenuous bullshit, no sources, just unsubstantiated opinions, fallacies and backpedaling. You start claiming vegans lack "two necessary amino acids", and when pressed, all you can show is one non-essential, while making some vague claim about getting enough from seeds being far outside possibility. Show me one study that proves negative health outcomes in vegans as result of DHA deficiency. And I want to emphasize, outcome. Not comment in a discussion about how we have lower intake which might or not have negative effects, but this issue isnt within scope of present study.
>>43374>J-just go outsideHow do you think D3 gets produced by the body, do you know? Or is all you know the "sun hits skin = Vitamin D?" meme?
1) People may have limited sun exposure because of their jobs, because of having higher melanin levels or because of age. Or they live in climates and areas with limited sunlight / live in areas where sunlight is only strong seasonally. You need to spend a significant amount of time in the sun to produce a lot of Vitamin D naturally and you do not produce it from nothing.
2) D3 when produced by sunlight rather than consumption is a result of the Sun's UVB radiation breaking down 7-dehydrocholesterol in the skin through a light-chemical reaction that breaks down the layers of the molecule. Said dehydrocholesterol comes from lathosterol, which is a pre-cholesterol that forms from fats, fats that are usually not present in most plants.
3) This is the indirect process. Getting sunlight is (again) not part of diet.
The point is that the extra Vitamin D we need because of the limited process of skin-sun interaction means that Vitamin D3 (which is longer lasting than D2 and better) is acquirable only from animal sources. Mushrooms and the like have D2, but that's very limited.
Again, Read a fucking book.
>>43384>couple minutes If you're depending solely on the sun for your source of Vitamin D3? LMAO no.
>use search engineHow about you actually read more than the summaries of articles? Given that you couldn't even read a single sentence before spazzing out a smartass reply, I'm guessing you can barely read a paragraph, let alone a proper response.
