What Are Your Thoughts On Vegans? Or Going Vegan ?

[ani4]

In terms of health, going vegan will surely help you in being fit and healthy. But it can get very exhausting that might cause to loss of appetite. Instead of starving, I suggest eating a balanced diet instead.

not true, vegan/vegitarianism is very unhealthy long term unless you are extremely careful on how you do it.

We have the right to eat meat but according to studies our body is designed to only eat plants (vegetables). In terms of protein, it's more healthier compared in animals'. There are also body builders who are vegan that made their body more structured and symmetric.

incorrect, the studies /biochemistry does not say anything of the sort

I believe in moderation for everything. You cant get all nutritional benefits by staying on plant foods alone, you need an ample amount of animal food too. God created animals to be eaten by man and I dont think anyone will violate their right by eaten them in the appropriate way

Though it is proven that the overly consumption of red meat is bad for the human body, It doesn't mean that one should go full vegan because of that, Red meat itself is not bad at all but when it is consumed in excess that's when the problem begins.

I'm completely fine with vegans, as long as they don't try to push their thinking on me. I feel about the same about vegans as I do about religious people. They can believe whatever the want, as long as they don't try pressuring everybody. I must say, it is sometimes difficult to cook for vegans, when we have them over. It even makes me want to invite them over a little bit less just based on that fact. The only reason I can see for veganism is the ethic questions of how animals are treated. If you have a cow and some chickens and treat them nicely, I don't see any harm whatsoever in using their eggs and milk. In terms of the vegetarianism part, I'm with those here who say we've omnivores. I like eating meat, but I think it should be done in moderation.

Humans can survive on a wide variety of diets including a vegan diet. I personally think it is healthy to base my diet around vegetables, starches and only a tiny bit of meat.

[kamasino]

Those vegetarians are always in good health, I see so many people.

I like that you talk about what personally works for you. A lot of people talk in absolutes. They say it should be this way and no other way. The fact of the matter is that everybody is different. Every person's body works differently. Some people may truly function better with no meat. Some people may have a lot of health problems if they don't eat meat. Thanks for the good reminder. Everybody should do what works best for them.

You want to be vegan, it's fine but the problem is when vegans are talking about on every occasion. Like seriously, who cares?

[parazhia]

Isn't it normal that we consume meat? I am on a diet but I only reduce the consumption of carbohydrates and sugar. I thought I would not be vegan.

Every person's body is different, I think that's key to remember. Some people's body works best in ketosis, some works best only eating meat (Jordan Peterson), and some work best vegan. I'm a long distance runner and highly active, and I know my body works best off just fruits and vegetables, and a bit of carbs. Meat usually makes me feel gross and heavy. I wouldn't ever push anyone to be vegan or keto or whatever, just because it works best for me.

It's obnoxious to push anyone towards any opinion, to quote a tweet: "I can do everything I can to teach others a lesson about their errors. But at the end of all my struggles, it turns out that other people are remarkably like me: they want to make up their own mind about things, and the last thing they want is for someone else to do it for them."

I have a friend who actually went full vegan and was OK for a while. She was telling everyone that its a greate experience and she never felt better in her entire life. Later the problems with health started and she began to eat meat, eggs and everything again. The problem is that your body does have some extra nutrients for quite a while, keeping just in case. Because of that vegans think that they`re fine and feel themselves way better then usually. But thats a misunderstanding since besides quitting animal food they stop smoking/drinking/eating a lot of junk food and start to exersice.

But I still think its possible to be a healthy vegetarian if you have some knowleadge. Not vegan tho.

Vegans suck. They think they're better from the rest of society because they are saving animals, but really it's just another fashionable bullshit. A fad some bored rich folks made up.

[vabalkazh]

Used to think that of something good but then I did some research on this theme. Unfortunately, vegan will do more harm then good.

I like meat, but I do not have any problems with vegans or people going vegan. I think it is healthy. I hear vegans and vegetarians could live on average of 6-10 years longer than meat eaters but I think it still depends on the person's lifestyle. I do feel bad about killing farm animals but it is not enough for me to completely abandon my love for eating meat.

[KimJonnan]

I work hard to make money to make myself a better life, including eating the best food in the world! Meat I think is indispensable!

[megasynk]

It may be more healthy going vegan but I love meat to much.

[kamixuka]

I think whatever we eat is not a problem, we are born to be omnivorous which means we can eat either meat or vegetables. We just need to respect if someone can't eat vegetables or meat. But i mostly eat vegetable to keep my energy up Smiley. Meat has always have cholesterol which slow our body movements.

I think it's pointless to focus on food and diet. If the animal is already dead then surely it's better to use the meat than to throw it away.

The real problem is with how farm animals are treated. Their lives are in almost all cases beyond miserable, an unimagineble nightmare.

But I see nothing wrong with hunting and fishing when the human is acting like any other predator in nature.

So personally I don't refuse to eat animal foods, but I refuse to buy any unless I know for certain the animal was treated well.

In short, I do my best to vote with my wallet for a more ethical future.

[myrionhymn]

I love eating veggies & fruits.. But sorry to tell that eat meat.
I only eat meat that we bought at the market only.

For those who are going to be a vegan, I don't think how long will you not going to eat meats.. most especially if you have some fav'rite menu on meat dishes within your table. 😁

I think this is a very healthy attitude. Everybody has a different reason to be a vegan or a vegetarian. Some people do it because they don't like how animals are treated in farms. My brother told me that he's a vegan for a similar reason. I asked him, if you were staying on a farm and you saw that the animals are being treated well, would it make a difference? Would you at least eat eggs or drink milk? He had a hard time answering that question, but I think he saw the logic. As far as I know, eating eggs or drinking milk don't necessarily hurt the animals.
