2 different things in my eyes... Do I believe in eating meat? Yes. My meat ate other meat at some stage, its just the way of the world...

But do I agree with animal cruelty? Of course not. If it's a clean, painless kill and the animal doesn't suffer, and is then used completely then I have no problem with it. I think the 2 issues need to be separated and that's where Vegan's have trouble using their brains... Probably due to a lack of protein.

My GF's sister is a hardcore Vegan and was complaining that the photographers on Planet Earth wouldn't stop and assist the animals they were filming while in their natural habitat. I argued for an hour that interacting with them and assisting them would screw up their ecosystem, and probably kill off something else in the process as a domino effect, but she wouldn't listen.

Could you provide an example of your daily diet please?

-human teeth made to eat plants
-meat is bad for you
-meat causes cancer

Probably more I missed but those all have about zero scientific proof for them. The proof is to the contrary, that lean meat is healthy for you. Provides important nutrients and cancer fighting properties.

Also I probably think fatty meat is healthy for you. Problem is studies often group fatty meat eaters with other bad life habits (smoking, no exercise, etc)

From Lyle McDonald:

Since everybody is losing their crap over this new study on PROCESSED meats and cancer risk. Read this and memorize it please. feel free to post it on anybody's wall who shares this nonsensical garbage.

Typical high processed meat diet = lots of fatty red meat overcooked. Minimal fruit and veggies. Stress, alcohol, smoking, no exercise, excess bodyfat. Of course it's unhealthy. In the context of the other half a dozen bsad health habits.

Typical lean red meat diet = lean red meat, lean people, exercise, plenty of fruits and vegetables.

Bad health habits almost always cluster together.
So do good habits.

Trying to isolate out a single bad health habit among a string of them is a losing battle and the research showing that LEAN red meat improves health, that meat has a number of importance health and ANTI-CANCER nutrients are numerous.

MULTI-FACTORIAL. everyone needs this tatted on their head.

No, I am NOT saying that processed meats are healthy. I am saying that the jump from highly processed meats to ALL meats is as dumb as the jump from high-fat diets to ALL fats. Meats are not a single category of foods. There are lean meats, fatty meats and everything in-between. They have different effects and read this carefully

HEALTH IS NEITHER AN ON-OFF SWITCH NOR CAN ANY SINGLE FOOD BE CONSIDERED OUTSIDE OF THE CONTEXT OF THE ENTIRE LIFESTYLE.

how about a vegan woman?

It's this simple: people go vegan to prevent as much unnecessary animal suffering as possible

Being vegan you can put on just as much muscle mass, strength, and size. I've been vegan 15 months, and I can still bench 350 at 180, deadlift 500+ no problems, still just as lean and have as much muscle, etc.

It's not hard at all. You just have to know what to do.

Breakfast: oatmeal
Postworkout shake: 15 oz silk vanilla almond/cashew milk with 10g of protein per 8oz, 2 scoops peanut butter, orgain protein powder, and a banana
Lunch: Tofurky chicken breast with vegan cheese, spinach, tomatoes, and two oranges and a Bode Burn energy drink
Dinner: A lot of different things. Usually from brands like Gardein, Quorn, Morningstar, etc. There's so many options.
Snack at night: blueberries, raspberries, cliff bars, vegan ice cream,
Before bed: 15 oz silk vanilla almond/cashew milk with orgain protein powder

stop driving your car

stop flying on planes

stop using electricity

stop living in your house

those things cause 100x more animal suffering than eating meat lol

Can you recommend some evidence-based unbiased sources for education? I only eat fish and sparingly milk products at the moment and I am looking to transition into vegan diet.
