Bro, its barely more than water! You are mentally deranged if you think you can out-survive someone who is eating a protein vrs you who is eating crispy water. Obviously neither is good for you just by itself but the very definition of "nutrition" is: "The process of nourishing or being nourished, especially the process by which a living organism assimilates food and uses it for growth and for replacement of tissues." You'd be dead before me, I may be unhealthy but MY food would have kept me alive longer and the very basic nature of why we eat is to stay alive.
I don't know who you know but.. I too know a few vegetarians that are overweight and unhealthy because they eat a lot of processed carbs. Whole plant eaters live longer and have less chronic disease like heart disease or diabetes for instance. According to lots good research. Plants have MORE nutrients and much less artery clogging fat so this isn't surprising (to me) However, one caveat here, 'vegan or vegetarian' is only a statement as to what they DON'T eat, not what they eat. You can claim a vegan living off potato chips. But is this healthy? I stay away from terms like 'vegan', prefer whole unrefined plants food. that's more accurate depiction of a healthy diet.
I worked with a guy that was strictly vegan from 15 years old and he was mid 40's when I was around him... lack of development, that's all I can say. I learned to differentiate IQ from overall brain function and to recognize brain problems by watching that guy. He had OCD bigtime, would take 8 hours to do a 5 minute job quite often... it was amazing how adamant he was about his diet being the best, we got a lot of laughs out of the guy...... here's an odd fact, Chinese people eat meat, Indians don't, China outsources work to India.......... who's brains are working better? I outsource work to my computer of course, at the end of the day I feed it some bytes, it doesn't seem to be byte quality conscious at all but that's a whole 'nother thread..
Oh really???? You stay away from terms like "VEGAN". Doesnt look like you did on page 9 of this very thread!!! http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=121662&perpage=6&pagenumber=9 Nothing you say is believable, you keep contradicting yourself. Maybe you should change your name to "FlipFlopper"
Oh yeah just look at how much protein and vitamins lettuce has, you'd need to eat 50 cups just to get 50% of DV of the vitamins and minerals it does have. LOL http://72.14.205.104/search?q=cache...erg+lettuce"+protein&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=3&gl=us
How convenient, get caught in a lie and make up some dumb excuse. Maxpi, I guess I agree with you on the brain function arguement. Armoured Saint is severely lacking power in his brain!
