is protein from meat actually necessary for a normal person who isn't trying to get muscular? it seems the only things that actually matter are b12 and heme iron which you can get by eating a couple of clams or mussels.
>>77002612If you look at professional vegan athletes, they seem fine.Novak Djokovic is plant based (based) for example.mussels and such also get you iodine and omegas which might be useful.
eat yer lentils, boy
>>77002612NoIts just easier
>>77002612>clams or mussels.Ewww gross I ain't eating boomer catfood I'm just taking a vitamin
>>77002634>Novak Djokovichas to supplement thousands of dollars more than the average person just to maintain.his non supplemented diet is also absurdly costly compared to moderate meat diet.>>77002612no, but it's also about efficiency.americans eat far too much meat, but 1 egg and one portion of meat daily drastically reduces the fears that people have about such things. while also greatly reducing pollution worldwide.the amount of microplastics produced worldwide to store plants is also absurd and i'm sick of it not ever being accounted for in these conversations.
>>77002612Yes? That's like asking if water is important for someone that doesn't want to be dehydrated. Of course you can source your protein from elsewhere but meat is optimal since it's already preprocessed to a more absorbable form.
>>77002612Don't you need to mix all kinds of plant shit for half the protein cause all those motherfuckers have incomplete aminos? I don't know. Just eat meat and dairy dude those are complete aminos. It's like science and shit.
>>77002612When I eat like 2lbs of chicken and steak it feels like I finally am satiated, I also have an iron deficiency and lowkey look like this as a dude. I'm hungry as shit all the time. Probably helps to add butter+vegetables, citrus+fish, salads and more vegetables, I also need to eat an insane amount of everything to feel healthy.
