You can get enough from food at the end of the day, I use it some times because as I have reduced my meat intake to almost none i need protein from a source with low carbs so this is handy. Been experimenting with pumpkin seed protein quite a bit lately.
Cool! I don't eat meat at all and go to the gym every day. I do eat a lot of soaked and dried nuts and seeds. So yum! But then it is also not my aim to bulk up or create a lot of muscle mass. It is just a great way to keep my body fit and healthy. Have a great day ;)
Muscle will kill you just as well as fat, that is the unfortunate truth, leucine from animals has been linked to cancer through the M-tor pathway. We need animal leucine for maximum muscle anabolism, what makes muscles grow, makes cancer grow, that is my personal theory and has been for 20 years. The less we eat, the longer we live period, that is my belief. If I could eat 1000 calories per day once per day mostly plants, that is what my ideal diet would be.
I'm a muncher and small girl, so I like to spread my 1200 to 2000 calories between a few smaller plant-based meals to avoided bloated belly. And I agree the less crap we eat the better.
Yep, almost no food would be just great lol. That is why herbs are so great because they are so nutrient dense and low on calories, tons of chlorophyl and phytonutrients. They feed the mitochondria of our cells, the most important part of our health in its most basic form.
