Then it is nearly doubly too late for me then?

[hrafn88]

What is your reasoning and what are those serving sizes?

[Infamous_tourist]

What's the reason for the plant diet? I'm 43 and eat pretty good but there's always better.

[WipeShapiroOffTheMap]

Why would somebody need to have an only plant based diet?

Hitler at least ate eggs...

[Gas-Chamber-Hoax]

I got these % numbers off of google.....they seem pretty high though...particularly the Protein numbers.

I am not a vegetarian. I believe in a balanced diet and do eat meat.

I have however been looking at why middle aged people get fat.

I am only a few pounds over weight...maybe five lbs or so but I also do a lot of physical labour with my work.

I have been taking a pea protein supplement and it is super clean. It provides 20 grams per serving plus it has a ton of other nutrients

Orac -Energy "Protein and Greens" is what it is called

[WipeShapiroOffTheMap]

Weight means nothing.

You are either fat or you are not fat.

[BlackChop]

First item on your list: Barley.
I think many of us already have that one covered.

[Gas-Chamber-Hoax]

You can see how blood aggregates and then separates when it is healthy

I'm vegan for 2 years now, before that, I ate meat in almost every meal 6-7 times a day (I'm bodybuilder). Because of high meat diet I got high blood pressure and high levels of bad cholesterol, and they both are sign of future cardiovascular and heart disease.

I realize that and decided to change my meat based diet into the plant based diet. I became vegan and after 3 months, my high blood pressure and high cholesterol went down, now they are on normal levels. I feel great!

Before I went vegan, when I was meat eater, I was making fun of vegans and thinking they were stupid and crazy.

Heart disease is the no.1 killer in the West and it's also "disease of the fork". The animals we are killing and eating are in the end killing us slowly. Don't forget, Hitler was vegetarian.

In the past I experimented with various diets, from Paleo, to Keto, Chrono, Vegetarian and Vegan, and I can say that Vegan diet is the best.

Also, I highly recommend this book so you can better understand this topic. This book changed (and I can also say "saved") my life:

[RaceWarTonight]

sorry, but casual alcohol consumption was one of the very FIRST steps of our degeneration

[bijuz]

You do realize that for the bulk of mankind's existence, alcohol was consumed primarily because it was free from contagion, unlike water, right? Casual alcohol consumption has millennia of unintoxicated history behind it.

[ThrowAway]

Glad to see I'm not the only one that came to this conclusion. Many people are blinded by the hippie/libshit stereotype.

The whole paleo/keto stuff that's pervasive in the movement is quite counterproductive. I just want to keep my extended family healthy.

This is a good presentation about it that bears reposting. Yes, the guy is a jew, yes he can be annoying. The info is great.

[RaceWarTonight]

maybe

the reason i say that it was one of the first steps is that when you combine casual alcohol consumption with other elements, it begins to form a degenerate society.

[Retnar]

Yeah. I'll just stick to eating good old British stodge.

[Massa_Colnel]

I'm on keto now.....how is that counterproductive?

[CuckOff]

I just had a honeydew Melon for lunch. good shit fam.

[interjew]

Organic is best diet.
Cut the bad carbs also.
If meat, only fresh good quality and in moderation.
Don't be a "chips and soda vegan".

So yeah, either vegan or paleo, as long as it's good quality, it's no problem.

[SSerbian14]

No, no chips, soda, simple carbs, and other junk food. Just real food, whole food.
