  • I've seen people do joseph's flax pita bread for the crust with pizza sauce and a little cheese on top. Macro's are unreal. It's no dominos, just it's the best alternative.
  • Exactly what I do. I try to stay vegan throughout the day, but when being vegan stops me from enjoying a social situation with friends or family I'll give in to products made with dairy, eggs, and cheese. Just one meal and I'm back to being 95% vegan.
  • I typed in gummy bears in my search and they came up so thats what I put. If I'm having pasta for dinner one night, I'm not hunting down the exact brand of pasta. I use MFP as an estimation so I don't choose all the correct type brands of food. I'll change it if it makes you feel better.
  • I have gummy bears made with agar agar, no gelatin in them.
  • Just don't buy any more snacks after you eat them. No snacks = no snacking haha
  • 60% carbs, 20/20% protein and fats from a whole-food plant-based diet. If you really are not sure, ask your doctor.
  • Footlong veggie delight at subway with no oils, dressings, or cheese is around 450 calories. I get 2 sometimes, go for it.
  • A whole food plant-based diet will surely reduce you chol. levels. Not eating a burger everyday, using oils, and loading up on dietary fats (sat. fats). http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/25/3/417.short "CONCLUSIONS—Total and saturated fat intake were associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes, but these…
  • I second this. Raw sugar in fruit is okay and recommended.
  • Yes it does say he cut back on carbs, yet without knowing his carb intake pre-cutback this passage is useless. He could have been taking in 700g of carbs a day and reduced it to 500g.
  • I'm no troll buddy. I'm just a minority in a group of low-carbed angry people.
  • I agree, I don't think there will be a long-term DB studies because of the fact that people don't want to waste their lives for the sole reason of a study.
  • What does that have to do with anything? I said he doesn't need the muscle and he proved that in that passage.
  • Because what meat eating researches want to spend that amount of time and effort to prove that the stuff they are eating isn't good for them.
  • No need to go low carb. Once you introduce carbs back into your life after your bed rest, you'll gain some weight back. Just don't eat as much because you are more sedentary than before.
  • Have you tried the product I am talking about? Most likely not. So how could you formulate a decision when you have not tried it; that's silly. Second, I don't have to point anything out. All you asked me to do was give an example of what a correlative DB study would look like.
  • First I've heard there are various meats that taste like actual meat. Gardein Szechuan beefless strips taste exactly like beef; there ARE products that you can't distinguish between real or faux. Second, I never said anything about the time period of the study. If it needs years to do, then it needs years to do.
  • I try and be as vegan as possible.
  • I would say you have a meat dish and a faux meat dish. You have an unbiased third party randomly select people to which one to eat and record who eats what. Have the researchers do their studies on the control (faux meat group because it doesn't have any carcinogens in it) and experimental (meat group because of the…
  • Yeah because Layne Norton knows SO much because he has a PhD!! That makes him super smart!
  • "of or relating to an experiment or clinical trial in which neither the subjects nor the researchers know which subjects are receiving the active medication, treatment, etc., and which are not: a technique for eliminating subjective bias from the test results."
  • No I wouldn't say that because there would be bias. I think a double-blind study would be most effective.
  • That's ONE type of cancer that a vegetarian can be more exposed to. We have not taken into account that meat eaters are way more exposed to plenty of more types of illness.
  • Humans have not evolved in the last 20 years so the research still holds validity. Second, haven't you realized that most studies are conducted by people who eat meat? That's propaganda for you right there.
  • I'm not arguing that vegans still die from cancer because there are genetic factors involved, but "After excluding participants who changed diet categories during the study, vegetarians had a lower risk of all cancer (0.82, 0.72-0.94), and similar findings as above for the other cancers" is what I wanted to see.
  • "All the recent research points in the other direction, though, and you seem to be ignoring that." And my research points in the opposite direction of yours. But ofcourse, they will never say meat is bad for you because meat eaters are on the panel of they obviously don't want to cut out their meat!
  • It's still a carcinogenic. Why play Russian roulette with your food?
  • Lol ;)
  • The WHO says processed/red meat causes cancer. In 20 years I think meat consumption will be lower. When the scientists back in the day said that a new study says that smoking causes cancer, do you think people really wanted to believe that it does then? Same thing applies.
