do i follow the buddhas diet or do i eat a healthy amount of protein and iron? i don't know. i used to have orthorexia and being a vegetarian is stressing me out again.
>>43008410Humans are built to be omnivorous, primarily carnivorous. Not vegan. Your dentition, lack of rumen, omasum, abomasum, your short pyloric cecum (appendix), and every other anatomical and physiological adaptation pointing at your existence as a persistence predator, albeit a browser, tell you veganism is not for you. Eat meat. It contains essential micronutrients you cannot gain through veg alone, and can only be maintained in a vegan diet via supplements, which is to say, an entire industry of chemical manufacturing and transport, tanker ships and diesel trucks belching out toxic clouds all so you can feel more “Buddha-like.”Did “Buddha” die from eating bad truffles, or from eating the thing that was eating the truffles? Anyone who says they have the exact answer is full of shit, and besides, Buddhism is an incoherent half-philosophy lacking essential epistemic grounding for its foundational principles. Read: Buddhism is fucking dumb, choose a better spiritual base.
>>43008410It’s about portions. Not what you eat. Just don’t eat people, or things that used to have eyes, and blood in it. Nothing that had to die, or be killed for you to live.
>>43008410Tofu has plenty of iron.
Reptiles want you to consume other beings to become like them. Reject the adrenochrome diet; you will not progress spiritually if you choose to live in the mode of ignorance daily.Look into the link between the US government and animal agriculture. Follow the blood money.
>>43008410the simple truth is people just fucking fall apart mentally and physically absent meat in their diets period its just a long slow suicide.indians are about the only large scale population to run anywhere near a full scale vegan diet and they are an absolute mess of a people.the problem with most vegan diets is protein is an umbrella term for a wide range of actual nutrients. most plant proteins only cover a fraction of that range and like the vitamin industry struggles with nutrients need to be used with other nutrients to actually do the job right. and jews lawfared the companies out of doing that job further up stream so its all personal research on actually doing any of this right because people who broadcast that info get killed for it.most meat nutrients tend to stick around a bit so early in the process vegans can do alright but thats only temporary there is a constant stream of would be vegan role models turning to fucking skeletons trying to make this shit work.>>43009138guys like this are just trying to blue pill you sure american meats a mess it made a parasite plague on the scale of african countries but thats just another vector jews are using to attack US because WE JUST FUCKING NEED MEAT PERIOD

>>43008410You shouldn’t have problems being a vegetarian, which the last buddha wasn’t, they’d still eat meat when offered to them as they were beggars. They applied the three pure meats rule, haven’t seen the animal getting killed, haven’t heard the animal getting killed and no suspicion that the animal was specifically slaughtered to feed them. If the three conditions were met they ate the meat as to not waste donations.
You can be vegetarian and healthy, especially if you consume eggs and dairy, and enough protein (tofu is a complete protein, and if you eat protein from different sources like rice and beans that is also a complete protein). Just have to look out for vitamin b12 if you're vegan
>>43008410The original Pali texts have Gautama Buddha eating meat when offered it. Strict vegetarianism was a Mahayana invention.
>>43008410Do what's best for you own body. You're not exactly the same so things will be different. Stop chasing labeled identity you look like an idiot.
there's probably supps that contain hemme iron. i bought some gummies once but they were kind of nasty and had a blood-like smell/taste, didn't finish them. i do feel worse if i don't eat red meat. but i also feel lighter and more relaxed on veggies. it's weird. you gotta realize that veggies are in fact hard to digest, and are meant for catepillars and herbivores. in rare cases, ducks will nibble on greens for some reason. but they prefer a hearty fish meal dont they. even a cute duck has to kill.
>>43010836big picture is that we were probably created by aliens, and they seeded life here. this is distinct from sim. theory which i find cringey due to all the tech nerds talking about it and even various non-tech ppl. it's basically a construct. it's the only reality we've experienced so we think it's real. we're programmed to think it's real. everything is provided but also non-essential shit is there too. we have to use our minds to test and see what feels good. obviously bread without any butter tastes worse than with butter. i crave butter but socially it's not really something i've been trained to eat on its own, but i enjoy it on its own or with bread. what point am i making, i don't know i just wanna talk really to be honest. i think salads suck too without dressing. obviously we NEED fat and meat, and if you doubt this try going without them, you will feel tired. but obviously ther are weird ppl who go vegan, fruitarian, and do just fine. i would rather just go fruit only than vegg only. i would also eat eggs if i was a veggietard. there's some slut on youtube who claims to be vegan but she still looks good and has fat tits and ass. but she's rich so that helps. i won't link because i don't wanna seem like i'm shillin.
>>43010841it's possible that a supreme God, with no one higher than him, created aliens, which then created us per his instruction. perhaps these are good aliens. perhaps they are what we know of as "angels" in religion. and then there are also bad aliens/demons/fallen angels. this all makes sense to me even though i ain't religious.t. been at this for 20 years and have a phil degree from top 10 univ.
design diff. plans, keep a log and see what works for you. what metrics you measure are up to you. obviously if you need energy for job/life that matters a lot. i don't feel that a salad provides me with fuel. bread sometimes does even though it's "bad". but i also eat it with sugar and butter. i also drink vitaminwater which includes b vitamins. i feel my best after a steak and those are expensive these days.
food = fuelyou wanna fuel yourself with leaves and beans? go for it. freedom. but think of a car. the fuel it takes is gas, which comes from oil, which comes from compressed fossils, which got their energy from the sun.leaves/beans/plants also are related to the sun, but they are the end capture device. so it's hard to link it up and say you can get energy from leaves. maybe if you are a cow or insect. i ain't a biologist so i can't say how it works. there's shit like athleticgreens that is shilled across youtube channels but they claim to give you vitamins. it's not a meal replacement i don't think.
there is also this thing called HUEL that is plant-based. OP if you're still here just test shit out and stop being a vegan who vomits up his food. food is tasty and should give you energy to make MONEY and FUCK.
Vegetarianism is not universal in buddhism. Eating meat has historically been the norm in tibet. Likewise consuming both meat and alcohol has been part of the shaolin tradition since the tang dynasty. "Shi heng yi" isn't actually a monk btw. Dudes got a wife and kid when he's not selling wuxia fantasies to euros.
The foods with the highest concentration of iron are plants. >https://web.archive.org/web/20240522183330/https://whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=nutrient&dbid=70Protein is a bit harder because you need to eat the right combination of amino acids.

>>43009242sheer scale of what it takes to achieve that is so high its most certainly a case of either knowing fraud, ignorant fraud of meat entering diet outside their awareness, pilpul of just guys early in the skele process, or guys genuinely just built different and or let the vegan style consume their whole lifes or benefits of just ludicrous resources for the process that are in practical terms all out of average joes reach because of the active war on nutrition knowledge and most of these gold star vegans being the result of extreme monk lifestyles that genuinely take pretty ideal life spawn roles to get too and whose schools often have nasty failure rates.>>43009260likewise a lot of veganism variety's had outs like this guy points out think japans zen branch got them to stop eating some meat variety's but know they still ate fish and think poultry was an out too.most of this stuff is just used as deflections from just how badly humans just rot without meat rather than even a shade of the sincerity it would take to even begin decoding the nutrition puzzle it would take to actually do this shit because that sincerity would lead them right into realizing the jewish war on nutritional knowledge in general who back this vegan shit EXPLICITLY BECAUSE ITS STUPID AND SELF DESTRUCTIVE.vegans have been told how there death cult is stupid so many times there is very little reason to assume genuine benevolence on their part its usually a self destructive ideal leftist latch on for clout that typically comes with enough of their insane aggression to be seen for just another shade of their superficial selfdestructive clout seeking faux morality in general.the practice is stupid self destructive and genuinely seeking what it would take to make it work would blow most of the shit the posers latching on to it believe out of the water its a done topic.

>>43010847nigger the jews have dragged uni's names through the mud so thoroughly those idiots are about the only ones still impressed by that shit.likewise a field where progress is so heavily gated by personal comprehension and experience is EXTREMELY EASY TO COMPLETELY WASTE TIME IN.the fact a dummies even trying to flash clout on that shit says a lot about how little's actually been learned on the topic.the whole fields enough of a dumpster fire respect for your peers intelligence and discretion is the surest sign of failure to piece the veil.niggers speaking of the goblin outside the tutorial dungeon as if its a fucking cryptid.
>>43008410vegetarianism is not because of compassion but because we are compassionate and ultimately everything goes back to compassion, it is used as the reasoning for it, which is a skillful means.vegetarianism is about suppressing lust. more specifically, it is about removing aphrodisiacs: meat, onion, garlic, spices.its not just food, part of removing aphrodisiacs is also occasional fasting, to bring the body's worry of procreating down to survival, so it has no time to allot resources for procreation (no boners, no lust).and all of this for the single purpose of undoing the division of the monad into duality, male and female, the tension of which is lust. it is about overcoming lust, that old serpent, that dragon.this is known as internal alchemy, the restoration of the arian (true/full human) also the rebuilding of the 3rd temple (the glory/light/rainbow body aka the immortal fetus).this is the truth, you may wander into other doctrines but metaphorical decipherment or internal inconsistencies in literal viewing will lead you to what is outlined in this comment, if you have the mental capabilities to discern this much.i could go down as to why it is necessary for the internal, hidden process of regeneration, but thats another topic
>>43008410Every body is unique and needs its own specific dietListening to your intuition is better than any external advisor Also,Jesus the greatest master so far on Earth ,ate fish
>>43012076>its a done topic.The science is settled!STOP TALKING ABOUT THIS!!!
buddha ate raw food? help me understand bros I want to be enlightened
