What's new

Al Jefferson is Vegan!

Yes.

There is this thing called a brain. It has allowed humans to improve their diet and fortify foods so they no longer need meat. It has also allowed them to study nutrition and see what is the most healthy: a vegan lifestyle.

Cy just showing he has no clue about anatomy, biology, evolution or even history. What a joke. LMAO. Little hint for you dumbass, our brain evolved to what we have now because we started eating meat! Research a bit about Paranthropus bosei who were vegan and got extinct and about homo habilis who started scavenging and eating bone marrow and meat... It may give you some clue you ****ing moron.
 
I don't care if y'all don't eat meat.

I'm not giving up that deliciousness though. Maybe you'll love 5 years longer. Not worth it.

This I agree with. Ill never be vegan or vegetarian. There are too things I enjoy that I dont plan on not eating again. I dont eat that much meat. I only eat it when it is good meat and I want it. Which is 1 or 2 times a week. The vegan side of things is impossible for me, I eat lots non vegan foods every day.

But I have no problem with other people eating vegetarian or vegan and they can live very healthy.

I still eat meat every now and then. I plan to go full vegetarian in a couple years. Been on a slow ween off it for the last 4 years.

That would explain his stupidity. Must be lack of Vit B12, Iron and calcium...LMFAO.

Um calcium and iron? You are really reaching on this one. The things that almost everyone gets too much of? The ones that are fortified and added to everything? The one that is natural occurring in lots of vegan sources?

Or still stuck on the fact that B12 can be made from vegan sources and fortified in foods like Calcium and Iron are?

Are we going to here next that vegans need to drink milk to get more vitamin D. Or eat extra salt to get their iodine intake.

. You are wrong about B 12 Ron, just stop it. There are tons of other nutrients which are abundand in animal products but are in very small amounts or are poorly bioavailable from vegan sources. For example omega -3. To get the same amount as we can get from fish oil you would need to consume 20x more flaxseed oil. Again, question is why would you do that if your body evolved to absorb and digest omega 3 from fish oil much more effectively? And it is just one example. It is undeniable fact that % of vegans developing nutritional deficiencies is much higher then vegetarians, paleo diet followers, atkins diet, keto diet or any other diet. And when dumbas like Cy tries to boldly claim that it is healthier lifestyle without any scientific support is plain laughable.

You really are unbelievably stupid.

No, you clearly don't know how B12 is made these days to add in to foods. It's from bacteria. It's fairly easy to make and in fact is a better source if it because it is more pure the way it is made now and fortified in food. Maybe you should do a little research on it.

You are reaching again with Omega 3. It's abundant in other ways than fish. It's very abundant in sources that are vegan.

You have yet to prove a single point in this thread. Your main argument is just saying the word evolution.
 
I am a partial Vegan. Does that count? I go about 5-6 days of the week eating nothing but raw vegan. I dont cook anything during that time.

I haven't gone full Vegan because I dont want to give up meat products totally just yet, but I can tell a big difference in how I feel from raw Vegan, and it just makes sense that its better for you.

There are a lot of studies out that point to meat causing cancer. I think its wise that you dont eat too much of it, or maybe even any. But since I dont know for sure, Im just sorta hedging my bet.

On a side note my friend at work gets gout bad when he eats red meat. Its hilarious. He hates vegatables. Thats not a good sign for the eat meat argument.

There is a guy on youtube called Vegan Gains. He is smart and hilarious as hell. He makes a lot of good points about the problems with meat. You should give him a listen. It takes a few videos to get used to him though. He goes after all the bodybuilders and meat advocates on youtube.
