it's true though, younger folks need like 1 gram/kg of weight in protein daily or so. When you're female and over 40 that goes up to 1.6 grams up to 2.0 grams/k

it's true though, younger folks need like 1 gram/kg of weight in protein daily or so. When you're female and over 40 that goes up to 1.6 grams up to 2.0 grams/kg. If you think you can get that from lentils, you might wanna look into bio-availability. AND if you have any problems with absorbing nutrients in your gut, you are probably not getting enough of everything, no matter how healthy you eat.

Literally nothing you have written is evidence for the idea, which I was challenging, that Ozempic-like drugs "make you starve yourself". Most of the people, currently anyway, who are prescribed these drugs are morbidly obese. There are an entire host of well-known, evidence-supported extremely negative consequences from being obese. So why are you talking about, basically, "eating too many lentils??" in the scope of this conversation? We weren't exactly talking about ensuring vegans get enough nutrients.
