The number of people using tobacco continues to decline despite industry attempts to jeopardize progress towards stamping out cigarettes and other such products, the World Health Organization (WHO) said in a report published on Tuesday.
Humans can synthesize all amino acids themselves. Any external source is optional, and outside of extreme scenarios like quickly gaining muscle mass nothing you need to think about.
If you do find yourself in the extreme scenario, you will have no problems picking from the huge range of non-meat protein sources.
No they can’t synthesize them all, thats sort of the problem. Those that can’t be synthesized are the essential amino acids. Most, but not all of these essential acids are easily available in a vegan diet. Those that aren’t as available, well, better find a good strategy to get enough of those.
Hm, it seems you are right. Not sure how I didn’t know that.
So is my understanding correct in that there are 3 groups of substances: vitamins, minerals, essential amino acids; that you would have a bad time without? Bringing the total to calories, vitamins, minerals, essential amino acids, and water?
In that case I suppose a minimum number of Livestock products are helpful in fulfilling that, though as the increase of supplemented products probably reduces the need, the amino acids can still be chemically synthesized, right?. The main criticism is also the amount, we are consuming (way) more livestock products than needed to fulfill nutritional requirements. Especially meat would still be optional, right?
I don’t actually have experience with vegan diets, I’ve always figured eating little meat would get me most of the way with least of the effort.
Livestock produces high quality nutrients.
Not for the same resource input it doesn’t.
Conveniently forget the fact that many vital amino-acids are really hard to get by, without meat in your diet.
Vital eh?
I’d forgotten that I ought to be dead.
Well, I’d advise you to get yourself checked for deficits at least.
