The first through fourth lines are entirely unsourced (Trust me, I'm a professional source-checker); as for line five, any alternative diet can be fucked up by uneducated opinion - simply stuffing green things and nuts down your throat is going to be stupid when you cut a valuable source of protein out of your diet; and the quote is meaningless, nobody's going to Gandhi for biological truths and this is important when the premise of the post is "I'm a biologist, dood". Here you go, professional source checker. http://naturalhygienesociety.org/diet3.html Signed by like 10 doctors, and statistics to back it up, but statistics dont mean shit, right? I could just as easily google up a bunch of articles backed by "doctors" in favor of veganism and arguing the opposite. I don't care much for them though. Did a vegan beat you up or something anyway? Where you sent to live in a vegan camp where they made you eat nothing but vegan food? Why do you care so much. I'm still waiting for all this crap that you say is going to happen happen to me too. Are you sure a lot of this isn't just possible correlation being called causation too? Like take this for example: > Many well-known vegans have died early after battling severe illnesses for years Many non vegans die after battling severe illnesses for years. They make 100's of claims like this throughout that entire page. All things that also happen to non-vegans/vegetarians. I feel like a lot of things in that article are finding bad things that happen to vegans, and then attempting to correlate everything bad that happened to them with veganism. Do you know children who aren't on a vegan/vegetarian diet can also suffer malnutrition from a poor diet? A child suffering malnutrition on a vegan diet != A child will starve if they are on a vegan diet. Which is basically everything in this article can be summed down to. X happening to a vegan != Veganism will cause X This baby mentioned in the article was actually someone with proper diet but lacked the b12 vitamins and other vital ingredients, including proteins( especially biologically superior proteins because the ones you consume in tofu and strict vegan food are inferior to milk based proteins) thus lacking muscle growth and calcium for his teeth. It wasn't about starvation based on his much he was eating of something, but starvation of those necessary vitamins and proteins. Just because you could easily google them up doesn't mean they're wrong. And those are real doctors by the, you could "easily google" it. They have a PhD in this. How is me caring relevant to this argument? I'm pretty sure the surveys prove those correlations wrong It would just be much better to have a mixed diet instead of only eating greens, especially if you want muscles. the time spent eating to match the protein diet for a traditional athlete to a vegan athlete is way more in eating and keeping it stable. |

How about because it's healthier than eating meat? |

I comprehend that you are talking about malnutrition from poor diet, not starvation from having no food at all, that's really what I meant when I said 'starve'. The simple fact is that they were not feeding the baby correctly, this happens to people who aren't vegans/vegetarians, and it happening to a baby on a vegan diet != A baby on a vegan diet will die. I do however agree that if they are going to go this way, the mother has to be well nourished, and she has to breast feed the baby, or else give it actual animal milk rather than retarded shit like trying to keep a baby alive on fortified soy-milk and applejuice. The point is I could find people with the same "qualifications" saying the opposite, not that those people aren't also "qualified". Plant based diet is not only greens either. In fact I think most vegans you'll find probably don't eat as much greens as they should. The protein thing really is irrelevant too. If you are getting enough calories on a vegan diet, then you're getting enough protein, and you're getting enough of the amino acids in the protein. Every food on Earth contains protein, most plant foods are only lacking in one or two amino acids, and chances are the next plant food you eat will have protein not lacking in those amino acids. Walnuts are slightly lacking in Lysine. http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/nut-and-seed-products/3138/2 Navy beans are not, however they slightly lack Methionine which walnuts do not. http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/vegetables-and-vegetable-products/2336/2 These are not convenient examples either, I picked them at random and you will find this is true for most two plant foods you can pick out, even fruit and vegetables. The only thing you actually can't get in sufficient quantities from a natural (no supplements or fortified foods) plant based diet is B12. The recommended daily amount is measured in single-digit micrograms, and I would still argue that you could get it naturally if people were still eating feral plants with certain soil/minerals/bacteria on it, which you won't ever find on modern produce because it is all cleaned or if not conditions they were farmed in not suitable. The bottom line is some retards doing stuff like starving a baby to death with soy milk and apple-juice, or someone doing otherwise retarded shit on a vegan diet, doesn't represent a plant based diet more than Neo-Nazi's represent white people. Someone getting sick, suffering malnutrition, or dying on a plant-based diet is not a representation of all people on one. You're claiming people will get sick or malnourished from a vegan diet, and to me it's as ridicolous as me telling you to look at vegan MMA fighters and saying if you go on a vegan diet you will look like them. 50Z said: Vegetarian ppl are much weaker, die faster and are not really smart. So I pretty much disagree. Anime nerds are much weaker, die faster, and aren't very smart. Stop watching so much anime weeaboo. |

| One time, a vegetarian sent me a video about how the meat was produced. It was disgusting, but after watching it I got hungry and ate a steak :3 |

lupadim said: It harms animals It tastes bad um ok well theyre both good arguments. I have a friend who doesn't eat red meat because it makes her stomach feel weird. It usually isn't because it tastes bad, but it makes the person feel funny. It does harm animals. who cares tho i like meat u like meat some people dont liek meat what are you going to do shun them like we shunned gays? ok go for it |
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)dont hate me cause you aint me( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)  |
| I think every vegetarian has their own reasons why they don't eat meat. In my case I loved meat, but I went to an exhibition where human organs and body parts where shown and after that I just didn't want to eat any meat and I think I'll never eat it. But I'm okay with others eating it. |
| It's the way of the world that everything eats everything else. I'm not not going to eat a slice of chicken or beef because it was once alive. Personally I find Veggies a little unnatural, but so long as they don't try to make me feel bad about eating meat (because it doesn't work and just annoys me) I'll leave them to it |
 |
| I wish most vegetables could run away from me. It would save me the displeasure of eating some of them. I was vegetarian for a few years too just because my ex was and I couldn't be bothered to cook twice. I do enjoy fish and meat though. For the record lupadim unless you are some kind of aboriginal hunter-gather your statement doesn't have a leg to stand on. |

He was really serious. @Mirati I heard rumors they won't lay eggs because eggs remembers chicken and they hate animals and their precious meat. I heard they will lay trees, which will lay fruits, which will grow into vegetarians. |
