Can you give a short overview of what you are eating and why? Just plants? Also including nuts? What about eggs? If you go full vegan it's not without risk either, you know.
- Borkdude 10y agoSure. My diet looks like this for example: - Breakfast: oatmeal with fruit - Lunch: rice and beans with vegetables (cooked or raw) - Dinner: mashed potatoes with carrots and onions or whole wheat pasta with tomatoes and spinach, etc. Snacks: fruits (usually bananas and tangerines because they are so portable), dried fruits, unsalted/unroasted nuts Condiments: all herbs, spices, salt (limited), nuts, seeds. No oil. I'm aware of the risk of an all plant based diet. The main risks is B12 deficiency which is easily solved by taking a little pill one or few times a week. Excellent explanation of why both approaches (high fat or high carb) may work: https://www.facebook.com/drgarth/posts/1213478802006359 https://www.facebook.com/drgarth/posts/1213478802006359 Lecture about high carb vs high fat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFfK27B_qZY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFfK27B_qZY http://www.forksoverknives.com http://www.forksoverknives.com is an excellent resource to get started on this plan, including a documentary and recipes.
