it depends on who really needs it but for most people using plant based supplements and changing a bit of their food habit is more than enough for the health part.
Just reducing meat intake can have very positive effects.
Also Indian food is really nice because its mostly not centered around meat (its more an additional ingredient) and still very tasty and healthy
You can easily see vegetarians because of how unhealthy they look.
And the average person cant afford the amount of supplements and special food to live as long as a vegan.
I'd rather live healthy and enjoy life.
I catch my own fish and clean them myself and my health and numbers are all In great shape.
I also like having muscle and looking good.
???
Do people actually believe this shit?
Do people think you'll die if you become vegetarian or vegan? That you'll rely on supplements? That you can't get in shape or gain muscle?
Man, people are fucking dumb as shit.
Being vegetarian and getting protein is fucking easy. Being vegan and getting protein is also not really as difficult as people tell you. There are bodybuilders that are fully vegan.
Every vegetarian and vegan I've met is healthier on average, and a guy I knew that ate fish he caught died of a parasite, so, like, if we're going off of anecdotal evidence, there's also that.
You are just objectively less healthy if you don't have a well rounded diet that includes lean meat.
Period. The science is there..
You shouldn't eat lots of meat but some is very beneficial
The science says that a little bit of meat is fine, just like a little bit of anything is fine. It doesn't say that no meat is less healthy, and usually says that no meat is, in fact, healthier. I'd even guess that whatever amount you eat is more than the amount that is recommended, especially if you are bragging about eating fish you caught. You could easily get mercury poisoning that way. See that concern trolling?
We're fucking omnivores. That means we can survive eating just about anything. You think we have to eat meat to live?
The guy your arguing with's name is "Truth_Hurts" and their account was created like 2 weeks ago. All of their recent comment history is arguments, they even have a ton of comments that were removed by a mod I think. Just give it a rest with that guy, they clearly won't even back up their claims with the bullshit they're spewing.
It's not him I'm arguing for. It's everyone else that might not realize how fucking dumb he is and needs someone to call him out.
So don't address it to him. Honestly, if you want to correct things he's saying, just do so like you're correcting a 20-year old newspaper article. You don't need to converse with trolls to correct the record.
So, uh, what about my ex-gf vegan marathon runner? Can you run 5 miles a day, every single day?
I know anecdotes aren't evidence, but if you want to come off like, "this is a universal truth", then I can rebut that.
