People just don't know how to leave well enough alone. This lady was just trying to share a recipe for fraudulent cookies, and now she has to defend her entire lifestyle for no reason.
If she's happy eating her 10% protein, then why can't everyone just stay in their lane and leave her be.6 -

There's plenty people on here that eat differently...some I feel eat way under a reasonable calorie minimum. But it's not anyone's job to correct or tell them what's wrong or right. I eat what I want. I happen to be vegan. I use mfp to track nutrients. I happen to average 10% protein for my macros. Not a big deal.3 -

Yep. I first tried these cookie things after seeing them here, and I like them. Who cares ab their protein, or how much protein she feels she needs!? Ridiculous.2 -

Actually I think we do have an obligation to tell people if they are undereating, and the harm they are potentially doing to themselves by doing that. Protein and fats have minimum requirements for good health, and that minimum for protein is raised in those losing weight unless they're happy to lose lean body mass (which no one should be). The fact that you are vegan has nothing to do with it.8 -

Unless you're a nutritionist I don't believe you should be handing out advice like a flower girl....unless you were asked personally.
I'm a fan of MYOB. I never understood the people that run around telling others "you're doing it wrong" the world is full of different people..different lives...different experiences...different finances..etc...that all dictate what works best to afford, maintain, and keep balance for a happy healthy individual. We are all different..we eat different...have different exercise routines...different ways to dress....different ways to love....and different ways to do everything. Its not your duty to "educate"(or misinform) others of your own personal belief.
Mfp is to share stories, inspire, uplift, and motivate others. Sharing tips and tricks..asking for help...make and build,up a community....but apparently we have the protein police that cant contain themselves if a person doesn't meet their definition of enough protein. God forbid!13 -

If someone posts asking for help, and they are clearly under eating, I will tell them so, because it is doing them harm. I suppose we should all just ignore someone standing on the edge of a building about to jump, too, right?
MFP is many different things to many different people. I don't need to be uplifted or motivated. If I ask for advice, I want that advice to be grounded in science, and I want to be told if I am doing something that could be harmful to my body.
And you couldn't pay me to take advice from a nutritionist. A Registered Dietician, yes.4 -

MFP is a community to support other people through healthy sustainable fitness and weight loss.
I feel you are doing yourself long term harm because you are not eating enough protein to sustain muscle mass and feel an obligation as a member of a community of people supporting healthy sustainable habits to say something about that.
This has nothing to do with you being a vegan. This has everything to do with worrying about a young mother who will get older and not have good bone and muscle health.6 -

Sure the parasites are the issue. Maybe if we had shorter digestive tracks or a higher acidity level in our stomachs it wouldn't be a problem. Hm...pretty sure that would pertain to carnivore....which we aren't
If the parasites are the issue, then why was the claim that we need to cook meat in order to digest it?
These are two separate things.
Omg. This forum is annoying. Above a person commented parasites are the reason we avoid raw meat...I was saying "sure" in a facetiously & responding to them. Sorry I didn't post a resource for sarcasm.
I'm sorry I misread your sarcasm.0 -

I am not too concerned with your low protein intake. I specifically became involved because your previous posts seemed to suggest that other people should adopt it (using "you" in your comments, for example, and posting recommendations for 5% protein intake that were supposedly from the WHO). If this wasn't what you meant, then okay.
I see a clear distinction between people personally choosing suboptimal diets and people recommending them to others.4 -

Carnivores can get parasites.0 -
Side note: To whoever mentioned that everyone now attributes cancer and meat consumption from a stupid documentary. Touche. But isn't it funny how the American Cancer Society has more recently named Processed meat as a carcinogen, in the same category as smoking!? Crazy huh!!
You do know that processed meat only raises your risk from 5% to 6% so no where in the same league as smoking!0 -

You took your statistic from here but they say 5 to 6 percent for Colon cancer. There's several other & different risk increases like the 18% increase for colorectal cancer. From same cancer society page.2 -

And you understand that those increases are added to your already inherent risk? So say my risk is 5%, the increased risk is 5% of 5%. Negligeable.2 -
Not to mention those increased risks only hit those highs when you are consuming smoked products every single day. I don't know too many people existing on a diet of bacon and hotdogs, even the most fervent meat lovers.2

You appear to misunderstand the math. The increase isn't from 5-6% TO 18%. The risk (5-6%) increases BY 18%. 18% of 5 is 0.27. Therefore, an 18% increase of a risk of 5% is a risk of 5.27%. A risk of 6% increases to a risk of 6.33%.8 -
Wasn't this originally a thread about sharing the recipe for a tasteless diet cookie?

Actually correcting is done for the "lurkers"--people who follow the boards, but never post. For someone that is so worried about cancer, I'd instead inform myself of future problems from protein deficiencys. You may be eliminating one problem, but creating another. As for the rest of the posters--thank you for informing, it helps the rest of us make better decisions.5
