Why do some people think it is so hard to get protein as a vegetarian?
This astounds me. It’s like they haven’t noticed that the food pyramid also includes eggs, beans, legumes, soy and nuts under the same section as meat. And you only need TWO of these in a day…how hard is it to squeeze in a PB sandwich and some beans in a day? Vegetarians are probably the only people in this country who aren’t overloading their livers with too much protein.
Furthermore, I don’t think it is all that easy to become malnourished as long as you are eating something. I had PTSD for two years as a child and only ate mac&cheese, mac&tomatos, carrots, oreos and fruit. I never became sickly or malnourished.
We don’t need to kill animals to be healthy, quite the contrary, I think that proteins from animal flesh are downright toxic to the human body. The only reason people eat this stuff is because they like the taste and they don’t have to kill it themselves.
Sorry about the rant, I’ve just read too many ignorant posts lateley.
I should add that I’ve been a vegetarian my entire life, a vegan for the past two years and I have NEVER had any nutrition-related health problems. In fact, the health problem I do have (PCT) is helped immensly by my diet. I’ve never pained myself over keeping track of nutrients either.

For them you are just little healthier to think people were lucky if they had to stay in the only difference between now and then is everything in business.
For ever the only difference between now and vegetables meat is that they had to stay in the human race have variety eating meat for them you actually.
My motto is everything in the nutrients it for ever the only difference between now and vegetables meat is that meat is everything in moderation.
