Exactly, and you seem to be the perfect candidate to impartially judge the sperm flavor of men of various dietary dispositions.Ok then... for science.
It's a tough job but someone's gotta do it.
Gay jokes? That's not very empathetic or enlightened now is it?Exactly, and you seem to be the perfect candidate to impartially judge the sperm flavor of men of various dietary dispositions.

Kudos for having an open mind to things.I've been trying out eating vegan for 2 weeks now (I've had 2 slices of salmon and 3 eggs in 12 days) and so far I feel it's had a great impact on me. I feel physically better (if you've smoked long term and quit, you may know the feeling), my digestive system feels more relaxed, I'm more alert and surprisingly, my mood has improved significantly - I'm more relaxed, patient, positive... I believe my improved mental state may be a consequence of my body reacting well to eating mostly vegan but who knows.
My main motivation for trying out veganism is health. Now my main reason for not sticking to veganism 100% is also health. I guess now comes a time where I keep listening to my body and continue to inform myself about the vegan diet.
One thing is sure though, I eat more varied than ever before - and I was eating healthy before already. With meat off my plate, I've forced myself to think about nutrition more and try out foods I've never eaten before.
There are a bunch of vegan body builders on youtube that put up "what I eat in a day" type videos. Should give you some good ideas and they will often tell you the protein content in each meal which you'll probably be interested in. Once you have the ideas there are no shortage of sites that can assist you in making good tasting food. I think I posted some earlier in this thread. Plant sourced protein will generally be healthier for you too unless you're getting it in highly processed form (ie veg sausages etc)I'd like some protein veggie receipes type thingys if anyone's got any.
A man can only eat so much chicken and turkey
I find youtube to be pretty damn good. If ever I'm unsure about how to do something, youtube is always my go to place.I shall look tonight
not much of a youtube user so never even thought to look there.
Have you ever considered checking out nutritionfacts.org ?? Unbiased source based off the medical literature that often gets missed by the marketing of huge pharmaceuticals.Look, I have no interest in arguing with you. Veganism is more like a religion than a diet. All I will say is the:
1. the very review you quoted is all about the necessary dietary steps you must take to avoid the pitfalls of a diet inherently low or deficient in iron, zinc, B12, calcium ...
2. your comment about the risks of a meat rich diet tells me all I need to know about your background knowledge.
3. I don't care what Nate Diaz does because that's just an anecdote. N = 1. If we do want to continue down that route, what about all the rest of the elite athletes in the world that are not vegans. It's a pointless argument.
/end
Please read up on the medical literature at nutritionfacts.org !! You made so many incorrect statements that I can't address them all but I will try.For gods sake. A vegan/vegetarian diet is INHERENTLY deficient in B12, low in iron, zinc, calcium (if vegan), folate. The minerals that are available are in the lesser absorbable forms. Not to mention dairy and animal proteins are vastly superior in both absorbaility and animo acid profile than vegetable proteins. Not to mention all the benefits associated with dairy proteins on a while host of health outcomes. Not to mention you are also missing out on preformed omega-3s and have to rely on the body's measly 1-10% conversion of vegetarian omega-3 sources.
No sh*t if you SUPPLEMENT everything that's missing then you can have a nutritionally complete vegan diet.
Fight the good fight showdownhero. I've given up trying to reason with vegans years ago. Research is not enough. Facts are not enough. Veganism is a religion. I'm just glad my vegan friends do it for animal welfare reasons, don't force their sh*t on everyone and know their diet is inferior.
Nowadays I just sit back and enjoy my delicious steak, and make fun of vegans instead.
Look up the study of 'blue zones'. It is the research of the communities with the highest number of people aged over 100. The one correlation? Extremely low consumption of animal products!Going vegan/vegetarian is purely an ethical choice right? Surely nobody would do it for health benefits.
Because eggs aren't healthy. Please, please, please read this source. http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/eggs/I don't understand why more vegans just don't keep their own chooks for the eggs. That eliminates the cruelty aspect straight away.
My chooks have a great life roaming free and are a key plank in my little chicken/compost/vegie patch permaculture set up.
Unbiased?Have you ever considered checking out nutritionfacts.org ?? Unbiased source based off the medical literature that often gets missed by the marketing of huge pharmaceuticals.
Yep. I think you will find that a majority of nutrition education and research will have a little disclaimer hidden somewhere saying funded by the dairy industry or the like. Dr Greger and his team read through ever single piece of nutritional literature in the English language over the course of the year (13000+ studies) and on the current balance of evidence have decided that a vegan diet is by far the healthiest. I think if you explore his website and check his sources you will agree.Unbiased?

Love a good laugh at Christmas time.Have you ever considered checking out nutritionfacts.org ?? Unbiased source based off the medical literature that often gets missed by the marketing of huge pharmaceuticals.
Where would this bias be coming from? Who would pay him to promote the benefits of vegetables?!?Love a good laugh at Christmas time.
My experience exactly. I think for most people cutting down is a great solution.I've been trying out eating vegan for 2 weeks now (I've had 2 slices of salmon and 3 eggs in 12 days) and so far I feel it's had a great impact on me. I feel physically better (if you've smoked long term and quit, you may know the feeling), my digestive system feels more relaxed, I'm more alert and surprisingly, my mood has improved significantly - I'm more relaxed, patient, positive...

Apart from being a qualified Dr and reading 10s of thousands of pieces of nutritional literature over the years. I think if you listen to him debate, be interviewed or talk you will release he does actually know quite a lot about the thing he has devoted his life to studying.Greger has no qualifications in nutrition, nutritionfacts is just vegan spam
