I found it more interesting from the blood perspective though - If the blood is cleaned and cardio system repaired as quickly as they say it does then maybe not a bad idea to go vegan for a few days or weeks at a time.

 

I eat Keto or carnivor, and usually OMAD,  so hunger is a thing of the distant past. It is very easy to go without any food,  vegan or otherwise,  for a few days at a time.

A vegan diet is generally healthy, low in cholesterol and protective of heart disease, but its followers must take vitamin B12 supplements or risk a condition that causes permanent numbness in their hands and feet, experts say.

This is a really interesting study, it's really not a vegan thing. After reading this I put a teaspoon of ground into my smoothies and drink the dirty stream water of Delta Park when I go ride.

There is some interesting science being carried out at the moment on b12 deficiency in meat and animal products at the moment. Because b12 actually originated from cobalt rich soil and not the animal itself, intensively farmed animals are slowly becoming b12 deficient as well. Basically the cow injests some of the soil around the grass it eats and you eat the cow.

 

But if the cow is eating a feed or grain from a trough or feeding machine there is no chance it can eat pieces of the bacteria filled soil necessary for b12.

 

Anywhooo, a simple coffee or cereal once a day with a fortified b12 plant based milk avoids the whole need for supplementation completely.

I see ethical veganism has just been declared a religion in the UK.

The Brits are nutty. 

But yeah I guess some people have been treating it like a religion for a while already.

This was a 'religious' thread from the beginning. The total intolerance towards others, sinners destroying the world. While they are the saviors.

I hate to do it, but it’s not “they” only one or two. Most have been really cool.

 

The law is about seeing ethical veganism as a philosophical belief , not dietary veganism. Which kind of makes sense.

 

It comes from a employment issue. Better than buying a .38 and spade as some have suggested.
