It's funny that you posted this today, as I was lying in bed this morning thinking that I need to reassess my diet. I've been plant-based for 7 years, 5 of which were trouble-free and enjoyable. I don't miss bacon or steak or burgers. My concern though, is that I seem to be having some trouble healing from injuries. I hurt my shoulder almost 2 years ago and I'm still not completely fixed. The other morning, I woke up with one finger painfully locked in a closed/clenched position and that finger still hurts and my grip is not firm or trustworthy.
I'm trying to find a non-biased source of information to help me decide which way to go. Everything I find is either "vegan is great" or "vegan is bad". Just the facts, please.
A man’s dental configuration proves he’s adapted to all kind of food: Meat, Veggies, nuts…
But now, avoid avoiding stuff and be creative. Sugar is the only thing we should not abuse: the problem is, MRIs showed, it’s more addictive than heroin.
Rich gullible people tend to pay hundreds of bucks for collagen supplements. Sink your teeth into a deliciously cooked piece of animal. Eat the skin, the tendons, the cartilage, the fat. You will find everything you need to maintain your own body.
Look at the Eskimos who don't have salads or orange trees, where do they get their vitamins? In the liver of the seals they hunt. But now, tell me in what plant you’ll find enough B12 vitamin?
Bodybuilders guzzle protein because it is most responsible for cellular repair. Not just muscle. Tendon. Ligaments. Connective tissue.
Not sure how you supplement protein, but I have never heard of a vegan protein being competitive with whey or egg or even beef.
You should look into isolated hydrolized whey protein shakes. I suppose technically it’s not vegan, but it’s been isolated and filtered so deeply its no longer an animal product. Optimum Nutrition makes a good one, it’s just more pricey than non isolated varieties.

I don't disagree with anything you've said.
I get my B12 from nutritional yeast. Humans are allegedly capable of generating B12, but processed, modern diets destroy that ability.
Yeast is important, blue cheese is good. So is wine.
Will homemade cider work instead of wine?
