What if someone doesn't want to take an aids cocktail everyday just to feel normal?

The problem with seeds and nuts and legumes is that they are baby plants. Baby plants are actually full of antinutrients to protect themselves from predation.
Lectins will have a variety of effects on the body, most notably nutrient absorption inhibition. But in some extreme cases it can kill you, like if you have a nut allergy.

I'm not even a huge proponent on proteins. I think high quality cholesterol (not just fat, specifically dietary cholesterol) is more important since it actually encourages nutrient bio availability to the human body.

I'd drop the whole protein thing. Nutrition isn't really about proteins, it's more about fat and bio available nutrients. Specifically cholesterol. Which is something you can't get in a vegan diet. If you couldn't get protein in a vegan diet vegans would demonize it like they have with cholesterol. You need at least a bit of cholesterol in your diet in order to properly be able to absorb nutrients and have optimal brain function.

If that wasn't true then vegans would never look so malnourished and be so angry at everyone. They'd make peace with how the world is and their serene nature would be more contagious to those who desire inner peace.

But vegans are always pissed, filled to the brim with anger and an almost nazi level intolerance of those who don't share their beliefs.

If we focused more on fat quality in animals we would quickly learn that animals need time outside, space to roam, and a natural diet, therefore improving the quality of life of livestock animals.

But vegans don't want their lives to improve, vegans want to genocide all domesticated animals.

Also it bothers me that vegans celebrate the consolidation of dairy farms, confusing it with the eradication of dairy. Dairy is still very much alive and isn't going anywhere, but now cows are even more concentrated and pushed to produce even more. But... yay I guess?

I'm female too and you can eat real fat without being a fat fuck. Margarine and skim milk is disgusting. I still stand by that you look like the pic I posted. And you are weak too. Stop making us women look bad.
I bet you won't even eat egg yolk because you are terrified of cholesterol

>Name one essential vitamin or mineral you can't get on a vegan diet. I'll wait.

Cholesterol

How does animal fat kill people with heart disease? Didn't heart attacks only really start becoming a problem around the time people started turning cotton seed oil into a lard replacement?

Just eat some real fucking cheese. Also cashews aren't vegan since they cause suffering to the workers who have to shell the nuts (their fingers will turn black from the caustic oil in the nut that is in the same family as poison ivy)


Why is it that vegans can't just appreciate what plants and fungi bring to the table palate wise?

I foraged some asparagus that was cultivated on my land long before I moved there, as well as finding a handful of morels I found in the woods on my homestead.
Fry that in olive oil with a bit of salt and pepper and that's a true vegan meal.

Oh what? That's not satisfying or sustainable? Then eat your rice and beans. I can't eat beans (especially kidney beans, even when soaked overnight or longer and rinsed properly) because they destroy my gut. I can't eat potatoes either for the same reason. I can only have rice in small amounts. The only way I can digest those lectins and nightshades is if I have them in very small, very fermented quantities with a ton of saturated animal fat and meat.

Fuck you for trying to guilt me into eating shit imported from around the world grown in ways I cannot self certify to be ethical. I will raise my livestock and eat them too.

Food sovereignty>>>>veganism

I got a bad bag of these once, and they tasted like stale chemical cleaner. There were other times I got them and they were okay, but just getting that one nasty bag made me swear off them.
