what's going to everyone John Venus here
and Leo is joining me today and we're
going to dive into a new topic today
which is the top five reasons not to go
vegan be ready for it yeah let's do this
number one vegans always in the end
developed some sort of nutrient
deficiency or develop some sort of
chronic disease so yeah that is probably
one of the most used reasons not to go
be you know one of the biggest concerns
people have and in my opinion is
probably the most understandable concern
obviously people don't want to make such
a drastic change to their diet if
they're thinking that they're going to
ruin their health because of it but in
the end of the day this concern only
comes down to educating yourself on the
nutritional contents of different foods
so things that people are concerned
about are things like iron zinc calcium
omega-3s which actually are only
produced in plants things like vitamin D
vitamin A vitamin K things as well that
our body synthesizes it by itself so
we'd not need an exogenous source of
these nutrients such as cholesterol
carnitine creatine in the other day you
just have to look these things up and
see that there are plenty of ways of
getting these nutrients in without
having to consume an animal you can
enter your food in the diary food diary
app like My Fitness Pal for example and
just track your food you can see all the
you know micronutrients are you getting
and it's really simple you can get
everything from plants unless you're
eating Oreos and cereals and french
fries all the time then you know if
you're eating varied and whole foods
there is no way you're gonna get a
deficiency number - my body doesn't
react well to the vegan diet that is
another one which is in principle
understandable if if the person actually
believes that their body is not
compatible with the vegan diet imagine
somebody tries vegan diet for two to
three days and they get a huge stomach
ache they start vomiting you know
something like that and then they
attribute that to the vegan diet or even
more extreme cases people eating vegan
for months or even years and then they
start getting deficient or they start
getting sick so most times when this
happens it's not because of the vegan
diet is because of your vegan diet so
you cannot say vegan diets don't work
for you you can say that the diet that
you were eating does more free so
obviously like John mentioned earlier if
you eating french fries Oreos just junk
food obviously you're not going to be
very
healthy you're gonna be vegan but not
very healthy so it doesn't mean that
you're not compatible vegan diet just
means that you have to clean up your
diet a little bit more balanced yeah
there's a ton of different vegan diners
you know low-carb even the low-carb
ketogenic vegan diets there is a high
carb low fat those Rotarian processed
junk food vegan diets
raw like it can't just say like the meat
diet you know people eat meat that's the
meat diet and it might be the case that
you have tried you know the vegan diet
and coincidentally at the same time you
became sick that doesn't necessarily
mean that you got sick because of the
vegan diet you know at some point I ate
chocolate and the next day I got a fever
I'm not going to say it's because of the
chocolate that I have a fever you know
try a different kind of style you know
do some more research there's so many
different options just give the
environment and the animals and the
pilot a chance try it again
number three and this is the reason that
a lot of hunters will give as well as
the ones from the village where me and
Katherine we're living in
we had to regulate wildlife so it
doesn't go out of control and they don't
spread diseases okay so there this is
one of the reasons that at first you you
hear it and you're like okay yeah that
sounds kind of logical you know but when
you actually start thinking about it's
not really a very good good reason at
all because when you think about it
animals have been around on the planet
for hundreds of millions of years we've
only been walking around with rifles
shooting them down for a few hundred so
the animals have done pretty well over
the last few hundreds of millions of
years before we started messing around
in their business so some people just
say yeah look at you know how it's
supposed to be hunter-gatherers you know
killing the animals regulating nature
but there are a lot more animals and
humans even on that stage so it's not
like you know we're seven billion people
we can't just you know be hunting
animals and that system doesn't work
anymore we can't just live in the past
we had to you know adapt to our current
environment and current situation the
world has done fine without us
regulating you know the animals for
millions and millions of years so why
try to change it number four it's just
the way it is culture tradition probably
the hardest one to overcome because even
when you know what you're doing isn't
right
it's people find it very hard to
overcome the barrier and just climb over
this ladder of tradition and and go
against what everyone else does and it's
just it's the social aspect of it it's
the expectations of family and friends
you know we all know that tradition
doesn't really mean anything in terms of
right or wrong we've done many things in
the past many traditions many cultures
and even today there are some traditions
that are absolutely uh ethically
appalling you know so there's no reason
to justify an action just based on the
tradition but I definitely do understand
that some people find it difficult but
it just comes down to you have to be
brave enough to break the tradition and
be the one making the step towards the
future you know back in the days were
you know slavery was completely normal
for thousands of years if you had a
version of itself living back then you
would think it's completely normal so
it's all about perspective it's all
about making a choice realizing opening
your mind number five there is no reason
to go vegan as long as you get your meat
and animal products from a sustainable
place that kill the animals in a humane
way obviously everybody would like that
the animals have a good life that they
have a good death but the reality of it
is as long as it's an industry that is
producing mass producing meat you know
that's just not going to happen if
you're killing if you're taking a life
of an animal that actually wants to live
and has its own you know unique
existence and his own perspective on the
world and a mind that we as humans will
never ever understand I don't see how it
can be right no actually I know of a
humane way to eat animals okay so
basically you adopt a cow you adopt a
cow and you call them whatever you want
and you know you raise them you cuddle
them you put in to sleep whatever for
twenty years or however long the cows
live and then right before it dies you
ask the cow you know do you want to be
cremated do you want to be buried or do
you want to be eaten and if the cow says
remove them then you can go ahead and
eat it after you know it's dead that's
the most of your way to do it so if you
want to go ahead about it that way be my
guest
we're gonna be eating one cow every 25
years if you're willing to kill your own
pets which most people aren't alright
guys so these were pretty much the five
reasons
you know the best reasons not to go
vegan that we could come up with it's
challenging because all them seem so
obviously you know stupid but you know
everyone you know has their own reasons
and they you know try to stick to them
to defend their own beliefs and we're
just we're not trying to bash anyone
we're not trying to say that you're
stupid or anything like that it's just
you know about opening your mind and we
came from the same place as meteors we
you know thought it was necessary we
thought you know vegetables were for
weirdos or whatever and it's a process
it's a change of perspective and a
realization of what is right and what is
necessary so anyway guys this is leo my
