tp4 you speak the truth. After cutting out much meat/cheese products from my diet I am losing .25 - 1lbs per day.
I'm not calling myself Vegan though; but more like following a diet in the China Study which is keeping my Animal sourced products less than 5% consumption per day.
Also I am eliminating as much oil as possible.
I might not have to ask someone to sign a waiver every time I want to have sex in the future! This is exciting!
Good stuff..
You have every reason to be excited !Tp4 am happy that we gekhakrs can take this journey together..
To clarify some things.
The China study perspective does not recommend ANY meat consumption whatsoever.
The 5% vs 20% animal proteins trial with mice is a demonstration that what normal modern affluent nations eat, even at visually modest quantities, greatly contributed to cancer growth.
That is to say, yea there is a level of arsenic that won't kill you, but it's still arsenic.. !!
The animal protein also causes continuous low grade inflammation + the fats raising insulin resistance, etc ,etc, DEATH>...... hahahahahahaa
That said, if you feel that
you possess the fortitude to adhere to 5% calories from animal protein....
---- Given what's been tested thus far.... The numbers are on your side..
-------- but keep in mind, that 5% would be 25 grams of animal protein, which is ~81 grams of chicken breast.
-------- 4x chicken nuggets weigh ~ 70 grams..
Of course we shouldn't be eating chicken nuggets either, because of the added fats, and mystery-meat aspect.
I myself take the easy way of not eating any animals, but if you want to do some math with the small numbers and get in 2-2.5 chicken nugget a day..
It's really the Doorway of emotions and habits which may be opened by that chicken nugget which could do harm, Rather than the nugget itself , assuming the quantity eaten per day is actually 2- 2.5 nuggets.
--- it's like you do a small bump of crack cocaine.. then casually swear it off for the rest of the evening..
--- but of course, the actual limiter is when you've run out of cocaine.. hahahahaha
--- most people can at least run out of cocaine or money to buy cocaine, so that's a good thing,
--------- no one in America ever truly runs out of chicken nuggets..
