I am not a vegetarian because I love animals; I am a vegetarian because I hate plants
As a friend who had spent 30 yeas as a Maine fish and game warden once said to me about lobster:I usually have a hard time when I eat lobster... but that's because my uncle is evil and likes to show me the lobster a live before boiling it to death :sadpace: but I put it at the back of my head and think how darn good it is, that usually saves me.
You can add it up all you want, but the reality of the matter is, your vegan diet and high protein isn't a complete protein. Therefore you have to eat multiple sources of plant based proteins to get all of your protein needs or supplement like crazy in the Amino Acids to make up for what your diet lacks. Animal based proteins are the best proteins in relativity of health and PDCAA's.i eat more protein than most people that eat meat and NOTHING i eat contains any chemicals or antibiotics and is 100% organic. even triple a rated 4 and 5 diamond restaurants serve chicken that contains arsenic. there are plenty of diet calculators you can addd up all the foods you eat and it will give you a score, average score for a healthy diet is around 160-200 my diet is usually around 550-600.
I agree with you, we absolutely are higher on the food chain and im not saying eating meat is wrong i could care less. I just prefer a whole foods diet and its not for everyone, its super expensive but the way you feel when you eat foods I do makes it worth every penny.
