Yes. It’s not particularly difficult.

The only reason it’s viewed as being challenging is that most restaurants have little vegan options, if you lack the time or ability to cook for yourself several days a week and rely for the majority of your food on lower priced restaurants it can be a challenge; this isn’t an issue at all if you can cook dinner for yourself 3-5x a week even if you’re eating out otherwise.

Of course, western culture has been completely overtaken by a degenerate value system of pure hedonism. The idea of giving up temporary pleasure and sensory indulgence is considered a great offense. Many of the degenerate creatures this society has produced will blindly attack anyone who points out how their hedonistic lifestyle is both undeniably cruel and immoral and destructive to the planet while not even resulting in any improvement in health.

In this very thread you’ll no doubt see numerous helpless animals, unable to control or put any limits on their most base, primitive, animal urges, coming up with all sorts of excuses that are factually and scientifically false to justify their complete lack of willpower.

Well, the arguments are there, if you want to use lies as an excuse for behaving like a degenerate animal. It’s up to you - are you capable of being a man? Or a self indulgent beast ruled by the flesh?

I don't consider meat intrinsically unhealthy, in fact a diet of meat and vegetables sounds like a great diet. A diet of junk food (chips, pretzels, ice cream, soda, dessert coffees, frozen dinners, fast food) is a different matter.

And? Are you suggesting that meat and vegetables are the same as those foods because some of the starting ingredients were the same? Do you believe a vegan diet consisting only of processed food is the same as eating fresh fruit and vegetables?

Which isn't much of a contribution. The Standard American Diet is notoriously unhealthy and unbalanced.

So obviously, it's better to eat a "well-balanced vegan diet" than an unhealthy diet. That doesn't tell us much about veganism. That was my point.

Okay, I get your point, and I see your confusion. My comment about the SAD was tongue-in-cheek, but most Americans are negative about veganism even though it would probably be much better than what most people eat in the USA, and most other countries at this point. What confused me is your statement about "an unhealthy diet of vegetables and meat," which made it sound like you were saying meat and vegetables are unhealthy, when I consider the SAD to be a meat-heavy diet with a bunch of other unhealthy, processed crap.

>>11854378
To be fair, I'll eat quarter of a watermelon as a snack in the summer, and I eat bananas by the bunch, so it didn't seem that extreme to go all-in.
I gave it a go for a few weeks one summer when there was plenty of fresh fruit, found out it wasn't for me and went back to my typical eating.

If by "truly healthy" you mean just as healthy as any other diet, then no.
Idiots try to say chimps are vegan or whatever but they are unequivocally omnivores. So there's no evolutionary argument for veganism right off the bat.
Then they try to argue about vitamins, but don't realize a vitamin is a category of chemicals (so the plant-derived version is often insufficient), and further don't realize a list of daily recommendations cannot possibly cover the complex range of animal nutrients we evolved to utilize over millions of years.
Imagine thinking you get all the benefits of entire food groups by taking some pills.
Now, can you survive pretty long as an adult vegan? Sure, almost anybody can do that in the West. You may not have the best genetics for it, but humans only got this far because they are so tolerant of variations in diet.

Humans didn't evolve from chimps and even if they did, your argument is pointless because chimps don't have the ability to get any food and use any diet they want.
>Then they try to argue about vitamins, but don't realize a vitamin is a category of chemicals (so the plant-derived version is often insufficient)
No idea what you're trying to get across by saying "they're chemicals". Most people know that and the plant variant of vitamins is often times better, such as ascorbic acid.
>Imagine thinking you get all the benefits of entire food groups by taking some pills.
You do. They're also so cheap and easy to get, there's no reason not to use them, even as an omnivore (who often have deficiencies as well).

A well-balanced vegan diet is perfectly healthy, the same way any other well-balanced diet is perfectly healthy. The only reason boomers seethe at veganism is because it goes beyond dieting into activism which righties hate more than anything. Personally I'd love to see the death of factory farms & continuous rage of boomers so I support the cause. Any rational person knows it's not the end of meat, in fact it would be an upgrade for meat both ethically and taste-wise.

It's the vegans who use the chimp argument. The point is even if you take it seriously it's a non-starter.
>Most people know that and the plant variant of vitamins is often times better, such as ascorbic acid.
You didn't know that plants and animals synthesize and utilize the exact same molecule in this case? That's a terrible deflection from the real and well-documented problem of provitamin conversion.
>They're also so cheap and easy to get, there's no reason not to use them, even as an omnivore (who often have deficiencies as well).
I didn't say not to use them--again not sure if you even understand the arguments here.

Everyone should supplement B-12, not just vegans--they simply have a much higher incidence of problems without doing so.

It's a random assortment of chemicals that the body needs. Most vitamins are not chemically alike.

yes people in africa ,as in people that have barely any had any animals domesticated.
People that lived on the north had way more domesticated animals. Especially in places like russia most plants barely had any calories.
Should man eat as much meat as the american? maybe not, maybe yes.
There are diets that are pretty much meat based and the people doing them are (so far) fine. Both carnivorous diets and vegan diets became popular only because people in the west are so rich they can afford to buy niche products.

the bad stuff are things that interact with the body in a bad way. glass just goes to the shitter because it can't be dissolved and it doesn't interact with anything in the body (i'm ignoring the fact that it cuts and looking at it from a pure bio perspective). lead causes damage because it interacts with the body or the body interacts with it. if the immune system was so perfect no one would die.

this is the fundamental truth.

the other stuff is cultural or social.
american/vegan/keto/paleo/etc...

the average human has a surplus of cheap low-quality food, with a bunch of sugar...

normal humans in that situation become sugar addicts, straining their insulin response, and their system can't handle sugar or saturated fats well...

lot of fat people, and then u turn on your 'device' or your television, and everyone has filters/camera-motion/hair&makeup/cosmetic surgeries/PEDs/money/environment/etc...

so there is market incentive to cultivate different meme diets

hit your essentials, avoid stupidity, mind your fiber, get a test done every 6m-yr... and you've got diet nailed.
