7.1 per cent of Canadians were vegetarian
Huh. That’s higher than I would’ve guessed. I’ve gone ovo-lacto vegetarian myself, not strictly but habitually. It’s pretty good. Disappointed to learn that it will not mean that I live for three hundred years.
Living longer is not the flex I care about. Focus on quality of life and better health.
Eating plant-based wont affect your quality of life as there are many great recipes for you to try out.
There’s scientific evidence that shows eating plant-based decrease your risk for chronic diseases. So its not just living 6-10 years longer.
Being allergic to many many vegetal protein source makes it hard to get good vegan meals.
Sesame seeds and tahini is used as seasoning in all the good Eastern meals i know, and nuts/peanuts consist of most of the “long lasting” snacks i know of.
Focusing on the limited remaining vegan proteins makes for a very homogeneous diet that turns out is bad for the gut biome.
I’ll support anyone who wants to eat vegan, but I won’t do it myself… I do reduce meat as much as my health allows.
That title is ideological indoctrination pushing fanaticism.
