RE: If you are not a vegan, you should watch this video

in #vegan6 years ago

It's pretty sick the way that meat is factory farmed alright; but I have to admit, I didn't go Vegan for that reason. I chose Vegan a little over a year ago because the health risks of eating animal proteins became unacceptable to me once I got sufficient information. I see there are some comments here from people claiming that a meatless diet comes with health risks: however, I will point out that the plant-based diet is the ONLY diet ever scientifically proven to completely reverse heart disease. Furthermore, I will mention to them that animal proteins come with endotoxins and are so acid forming that the body is forced to withdraw calcium out of the bones in order to buffer those acids when they hit our bloodstreams (otherwise we would die) contributing to osteoporosis and osteoarthritis.
In any case, the proof is within me. I've never felt better, I've had more energy, improved bowel regulation, and I haven't been sick once since I began eating my whole-foods plant-based diet.
You guys that love the meats and have bought the keto campaign should really give this a try for a little while. Expand your veggie profile with organic whole foods for a few months and tell me you don't feel more peaceful inside your body.
You're welcome!

So vitamin D and Vitamin B12, those are known issues. Supplement if you think it's important. I personally haven't been supplementing at all and feel good. B12 growns in plant soil, so if some of the dirt is on organic plants that I eat I get it that way. We get vitamin D from the sun.

Our body makes EPA/DHA from plant based ALA.

The bio availability argument is nonsense.

There's no supplements that can match our ancestral diet. You'll see that for yourself in years to come.

You think we were killing animals with our bare hands on the ancestral diet? Does a raw animal look good to you?

You are a clear case of successful paleo/atkins marketing. You prob believe that caveman ate butter too lmao 🤣🤣

Annie Osborne has been on a strict botanical fruit diet for 30 years and her blood markers are as good as it gets.

Dr. Atkins, promoted high fat and meat products. He died of a heart attack.

Anyway, I'm done with this conversion.

We don't and didn't use our bare hands, we used tools and persistence hunting.

An appeal to "ancestral diet" is really an appeal to metaphysics, since none of us were there. Personally, I'd rather appeal to human A and P. But ultimately everyone's views about any given topic are affected by our beliefs about our origins. For example, my belief in the Bible agrees with the physiological fact that animal proteins are practically indigestible because they are so complex and tightly bound that our enzymes have such great difficulty unwinding and disassembled them into their constituent amino acids that comparatively few are able to actually be used; meanwhile they sit overlong in our guts, getting stuck to the walls of our colons, and putrifying; and since there are many animal fats trapped among these proteins, they go rancid too; and when rancid fats find their way into the bloodstream, the body deals with them by surrounding the molecules with water (so they are isolated) and storing them in your tissues. In YOUR tissues, not my tissues.

Agreed. There's no micronutrient in animal products you can't get from plant based products. But you get a bunch of other shit you don't need or want like exogenous cholesterol.
