re: Thinking About Starting An All Plant Based Diet

I meant deep fried, nothing wrong with pan fried. And it's not hard to find good uncured bacon at all, just takes a little effort.

I'm sure added sugar in everything we eat is not helping.

Asians are able to eat less calories. Why? They eat more grains and of course rice. They are able to sustain on this food source and not feel hungry. Our sedentary life style compared with asians is true. I don't see how pounding meat is going to help that though.

actually rice causes spikes in insulin which tend to cause hunger. So again, wrong.

and of course the typical american diet sucks. Most are completely confused on what the hell to eat and think big macs are ok.

and of course you dont see eating protein as a way to help with out sedentaryt life style, because no offense you are ignorant in that arena. Protein is by far the hardest macro for our body to digest and requires the most amount of energyy, upto 40% of the energy derived from a gram of protien is used to just digest it. Also protein is the hardest of all the macros for our body to store as bodyfat. SO yea no way eating more protein would be the answer huh?

I agree that most meats found in grocery store are from dog shite sources. Find better sources, they are everywhere in the texas and LA region. Visit eat wild or a local famrers market. Sure it takes effort but its not hard.


as far as weightloss goes, your body doesnt know the difference between a piece of chocolate or a piece of fruit on a calorie for calorie basis. Sure the fruit provides better micros but overall calories are the same. The key to effectient weightloss is very simple for anybiody that doesnt have a metabolic problem and even that can be fixed in most cases. Its simple, eat enough protein to maintain muscle mass and be in a caloric deficit. pretty damn simple.

Most Americans can't afford or find this option. Our standards for food quality is a joke.

I was kind of confused about what you meant. I put the bacon on the cast iron and "fry" it in its own bacon fat!

And you could say the same about meat and dairy.

Not sure what this means. Your body is designed to run on ingested protein and fat. It literally does not need carbohydrates. Your brain is powered on about 4g of glucose per day - an amount which is barely getting out of bed for your liver to synthesize.

Your body only needs 30-50 grams of protein a day. Easily attainable with no meat or dairy.

Not sure why you argue over dairy. Think about, yes other animals eat meat, some eat plants, but humans are the only species that drink milk after infancy. And we drink another animas milk. Why? Because someone said it's important for your bones? That was proven to be bullshite. It's why the milk industry quit the "It does your body good" campaign.

You might only need 40-50g to love but you will be burning muscle as fuel at that level. You sure as hell cant thrive on that amount unless you are a very petite female.
