P.S. I am not a vegan fanatic who wants to "save the environment." I do it strictly for health reasons. I follow the science and the science says if you want to lower your risk of heart disease, cancer, diabetes and remain a normal body weight, you will eat plants and cut-out all meat.


General observations/ trends/comment:

People almost universally feel better when switching to vegan. This is not typically an additive effect. The main benefit is the withdrawal of most of the crap they have been eating prior

Person feels great for a few months

After 6 months to a year, person feels sluggish, has mental fog, vague maladies. Pernicious nutritional deficiencies often creep in

** A balanced vegn diet can be maintained (very difficult to do, but possible), but often times these folks are advised to increase their intake of legumes, eggs/dairy, or fish (if they can).

Do you see the irony in this

In a "strange" way, most people in this thread are vegeterians who eat well sourced meats and fats

People doing a WHOLE 30 Paleo diet also feel euphoric and it is all due to eating real food and eliminating the crap.

IMO: Heavy on Veggies, sourced meat and eggs (if possible), greek yogurt, fermented foods, dark berries. On heavy training days or when feeling sluggish ( rice, oats, potatoes) If you can access RAW milk products, use them. I have access to Raw Colostrum and will down a pint after a full body workout from time to time. Get your bloodwork and get a FUL lipid panel done 1 to 2 times a year, you may find that you are genetically not suited for a Keto type diet.

If Vegans would just eat one slice of cheese a day, they could do away with the B12 fear, but then they would be vegetarians and that is not cool these days. Paleo people can be just as fanatic about their way of eating as can Keto and Intermittent Fasting people. Just do what you want and evolve and adapt as you listen to your body and as you age.

Meat and cheese aren't killing you, live your life and enjoy it.

I agree. I have listened to almost all of his pod casts. They are super informative and level headed. He also gets into the weeds of the science behind his advice, which I really enjoy.
