Scooter Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 If it tastes good then eat it. But I've read that compared to the average Western diet of processed and refined s**t, a vegan diet looks very healthy, especially in the short term. But in the long-term there aren’t any clear mortality benefits, as it’s tough to adequately nourish your body with a strictly vegan menu that lacks iron, zinc, calcium and other essential nutrients. Life's too short for fad diets for me, everything in moderation. And anyway, nothing beats a good steak medium-well or a roll with Ayrshire bacon n HP sauce! -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EKX16 Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) I was in the Scotia bar with a friend and at the table next to us were four vegetarians. We got into a discussion with them weighing up the pros and cons of vegetarianism and one of them asked my friend if he liked animals and he replied yes they are delicious. I think that was a quote from Ted Nugent. Edited October 8, 2019 by EKX16 Spelling mistake 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harley Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) B12 deficiency is a very serious condition & can result in, although it can take 3 to 4 years in death. B12 as far as I know comes from animal products. Where does the B12 supplements that Vegans take come from. Does taking B12 supplements mean that they are not completely Vegan.

I'd watch Forks over Knives on Netflix, it's definitely eye opening and I've definitely cut down on dairy/processed meats recently. Still eat both but nowhere nearly as much as I did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a product called nutritional yeast that is a source of b12. It's yeast. It has a nutty smokey cheesy taste. It's much nicer than it sounds. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could eat a whole cow it still wouldn't matter. I have a B12 injection (Hydroxocobalamin) every 3 months, in fact going for one this afternoon. If anybody is thinking of going Vegan please try out the B12 supplements or nutritional yeast that LROY mentioned. you will feel like s**t if you don't. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooby_Doo Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 It's always worth applying a bit of critical thinking to these Netflix documentaries. Often worth checking out who is making them and what biases are involved. Some of the claims in the food ones have been fanciful, and that is putting it mildly. I've watched the first half hour or so of Game Changers, and I'm not sure. I can watch the rest tonight, since I recorded todays match on Alba, yet when I turned it on the very first frame of video was the scores from the bloody news! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby_Doo Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 I watched the rest, and thought to myself, if I could be arsed, I'd like to actually read all of the 'science' that they reference to see if it matches their claims. Turns out I don't need to - https://tacticmethod.com/the-game-changers-scientific-review-and-references/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think. Everyone I've spoken to or read online talking about Game Changers hasn't offered one piece of criticism. My Spidey senses were tingling when he did the battle ropes for an hour, when his previous best was 8 minutes, and he'd been injured for six weeks. The previous best in his gym was 20 minutes I think. I didn't believe that for a second. I've watched pro cycling for too long to believe that. It was disappointing that they spent a lot of time attacking the 'animal products' industries for the tactics they use, whilst using the very same tactics themselves. Perhaps it isn't as compelling just to tell people to eat more fruit and veg. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have a healthy meat based diet and a healthy vegan diet, but to make a sweeping generalisation that one simply isn't healthy for the human body is silly. You seem to have posted on this thread more than anyone else, which in the month since I made the switch to veganism, is in line with my experience so far. I've hardly brought it up, but other people bring it up at every turn and are desperate to make daft claims about not getting enough protein and so on. Personally the switch has been great for me and I've never felt more energetic or had better recovery for exercise. I'm happier and enjoying my food more than ever. Noticed vegan pies at Rugby Park last week so looking forward to trying them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackislekillie Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 Had one of these on Saturday (would've had two but Mr D Ewart reminded me I was going out for my dinner that night). A very fine addition to the menu. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was reading an article the other week about Celtic loanee Jack Aitchison and how he is enjoying his time at "vegan club" Forest Green Rovers. They only sell vegan food at the ground and the players only eat vegan food after training etc. although they are free to eat what they like "out of hours". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its processed food thats wrong and gives you cancer. If you only ate fresh food, you’d be healthier, less grumpy and spend a lot more time in the kitchen! Veggie or vegan an optional extra to eating good fresh food, although by being veggie or vegan, you instantly cut out a lot, or most, of the crap! I like honey on my toast and a bit of fish for my tea, so becoming a vegan is completely out of the question. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
