So brahs first day of March from a blood test I found out my ALT (113) AST (46) and Creatinine (1,33) levels were too high. Then I decided to detox my liver by not drinking any alcohol or eating meat.
AST and Creatinine are fixed and ALT is lowered by half (58) but I'm feeling unhealthy af plus seeing all these people eating meat and getting drunk in front of me is a torture.
I'll drink a sixpack and eat tons of kebaps daily once this chits over. How tf do vegans do it??

Interesting... Goes vegan, health problems decrease, yet living healthy is no way to live...
It's not hard to be vegan. Hit your macros and figure out what's available to eat that you like. There is literally vegan everything at this point... Vegan wings, chicken nuggets, ribs, cookies, cakes, cheese, milk, and an overwhelming majority of them if you experiment a bit taste very good355 Bench

Confirmation bias/placebo etc etc. I did vegetarian for 30 days, then vegan following 30 days. The only thing it forced me to do was look up creative ways to make things I enjoyed, like hamburgers (black bean burgers when made right are pretty tasty, but still don't really compare). I also ate a ton of lasagna and pizza (lul technically vegetarian, vegan with veggie cheese). A lot of the stuff in the store that's vegan are expensive af, taste like dirt and probably more processed than just buying a pack of ground beef. A friend of mine recently said she stopped eating the store-bought vegan food and all of her digestion issues went away.
Beyond real medical issues or moral issues (I guess), I think it's pretty silly to exclude major food groups from your diet. I felt no different when I ate this way. Then again, people say eating wheat/carbs is why people are fat, but I've cut just fine with plenty of carbs. Depending on who you ask, I guess I'm an anomaly.

I tried to switch to veganism cause of animal cruelty but the food is just so bad. I had some vegan cheese and it was all gooey and had a weird after taste. Tofu made me barf. Vegan burgers are alright, but mainly cause the sauces hide everything. If I went vegan it would basically be eating salads for the rest of my life.
Sorry animals...

To give a serious answer to your question -
your tastes/tastebuds adapt over time and what you like and prefer changes based on your habits. It's only so difficult for you to eat vegan because you've been eating animal products and processed junk your entire life. No doubt eating a whole food plant diet is very difficult for people in the modern world eating a modern disease and cancer causing diet. But the reality is after you do it long enough you adapt and it becomes what you prefer.

I'm not really convinced its healthier for everyone. If I try something like the carnivore diet (meat + water mainly) I feel fantastic. zero bloat. No constipation. No gas. Regular chitting. Etc.
If I try something more along the lines of vegetarian (never even bothered with full vegan) its the opposite. Need to chit 6+ times per day. Constantly feeling bloated. Get really hungry every few hours. Lower energy levels. Look more drawn/lifeless. Etc.
It might work better for some people and over time they might get used to it. But I'm not entirely convinced we are all cut out to live on plants.

My daughter went vegan a year or so ago and it's really helped her loose weight. Instead of looking for vegan versions of cheese, milk, meat, etc. she's learned how to do it the right way and prepare foods that have been apart of vegitarian and vegan diets for a long time; spending 3 months in Thailand with her mom helped a lot in that regard. It's doable

When I started eating vegetables I needed to stir fry them to make it palatable after a few months I could enjoy them straight from the boiler I was able to cut down the sugar for my coffee from 3 tablespoons to 1/3 of a tablespoon without tasting bitterness some of the junk food I used to enjoy started tasting over saturated and chemically.

This.
It's not about eating a bunch of BS which at the end of the day is still processed ****, it's about eating raw foods.
Salads, fruits, vegetables.
I'm not vegan, meat makes up like 20% or less of my diet, and usually it's either fish or eggs, with the occasional red meat, basically one serving or less of meat per day.
I feel great on the diet and I'd have to try really hard to get fat, although I don't think I could ever completely give up meat as I don't think that's healthy.The billionaire and the beggar both have 24 hours in a day.
That's why grandma's apple pie rocks and yours sucks.

Vegans live longer because there's less risk of developing heart disease and cancer on a vegan diet. Very much the opposite of unhealthy.
I look the exact same as when I was eating meat. I hit the same exact micros and macros. Nothing has went down on me. I didn't lose even a pound going vegan.
No, they're just aware of 60 billion animals every year dying to feed people that is completely unnecessary at this point, environmentally damaging, and help contribute to higher rates of cancer and heart disease.355 Bench

Vegan diet is obviously healthier than a traditional american diet, as the traditional american diet is ****. Ideal "normalish" diet would probably be the Mediterranean diet. But I respect vegans for doing what they do as far as animals are concerned. It's ****ed up what some of them go through in order to feed us.
I lol @ liberals who bitch about the environment and corporations poisoning the air when they eat meat - overwhelming majority of greenhouse effect caused by cattle.#FreeCryptoBandit
