Plant-based diet

[Harry Goldfarb*]

I just finished watching a documentary on Netflix called Food Choices. In the documentary they interview a ton of experts who argue that a plant-based diet is the best diet for a human's for, the environment, and for the animals we share this planet with.

Stating now I vow to eat exclusively a plant-based diet from here on out.

Has anyone seen this documentary? If so, do they have any thoughts on it? Does anyone live on a plant-bass diets? Thoughts?

Discuss.

Green vegetables, yes. Fruits, no. I read an article a few years ago about how fruit has been genetically modified to provide maximum taste and sugar content to make it palatable -- they have become orbs of sugar. I go to Costco every couple of weeks to stock up on bottled water and Diet Coke (not the healthiest of drinks, but whatever). However, you see 300 pound people loading up their cart with mangos, bananas, and citrus fruits. You get vitamins from them, but you also get sugar content that rivals a can of Coke.

You get fibre in fruit. You don't get fibre in Coke. That's the difference. A massive one.

Why are you buying bottled water?

 

[Harry Goldfarb*]

The problem with the fat people isn't that they're eating fruit, it's that they're eating fruit plus a bunch of garbage. I'm sure if you look in their cart they also have frozen pizzas, other frozen crap, chicken fingers, massive blocks of cheese, potato chips, French fries, sugary cereal, soda, etc.

 

[LarryFisherman]

Fat people also drink diet soda, which not only makes them fatter by itself, but also triggers areas of the brain to go into hyper-consumption mode which in turns makes you doubly fat.

And gives you cancer.

And impotence.

How that **** is legal is beyond me.

You read one article which said "fruit has sugar" and decided to stop eating fruit?

That's crazy.

Just buy locally sourced goods, and you'll always know where it's coming from. That's an integral part of any healthy diet, beyond just eating the right types of food. The right 'versions' of food and choosing only the highest quality is paramount to life-long health.

You won't eat fruit because mainstream cheap fruit has GMO's, but you'll go to Costco and buy a pack of diet coke that I know has a minimum of 36 cans in it. That's absolutely mental.

[PanthersPens62]

I like the more subtle new you. "Tibetian Jockey" & "Chris Hagen" were way too obvious.

 

[Bones Malone]

Are you allowed to have fish on plant-bass diets? Is that the basis behind that name?
