How To Create Your Own Plant-Based Athlete Meal Plans Over the twenty years that I have been a plant-based (vegan) athlete, I’ve realized that many people know what foods they want to avoid when they decide to become vegan, but they’re often unsure about the foods to eat to thrive as a plant-based athlete. An obvious first step is to avoid eating animal products, but what to replace them with becomes the mission to conquer. Many animal products are 1500-3000 calories per pound, whereas most plant foods are 200-500 calories per pound. Naturally, there will be questions about what to eat to replace animal foods in order to maintain your current weight, build muscle,…

Hey all, I have been practicing plant based eating for 5 years now and before that ate healthy but very animal centered. I have not gone fully animal free and still have a couple of eggs each week and chicken and salmon about 3 times per month. Sometimes more/less depending on the speed of life. I have gone strict vegan 3 times in my life and by the 2nd month or so, I experience minor bouts with depression and just in general not feeling great about life. Not in a dangerous way, just sort of a malaise. Also tended to get sick often. I took multivitamins and some vegan amino acids but it did not change anything. As soon as I added just a bit of animal products int…

Hey there! Hope you're doing well. I'm an MBA student from Mumbai, India and am currently a part of a project where we are trying to identify the problems faced by vegans and to-be vegans in order to develop a solution prototype for the same. It'd be a great help to us if you could fill out the google form and provide your inputs. Thanking you in anticipation :)) https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1eV7iyEY2_GWzLZWmIDM4eAxhlXsvhWcz4s1qt1SHWWs/edit

Teeth fixing can significantly improve an individual's appearance and thus their certainty and confidence. A contemporary strategy called Invisalign offers a discrete route for anybody of all ages to accomplish straighter teeth with no apparent proof of supports - and rather wear a progression of 'aligners' which are removable and for all intents and purposes imperceptible. The Invisalign framework has become progressively modern and inventive year-on-year, empowering perpetually complex tooth arrangement cases to be dealt with and subsequently has essentially changed the tooth, fixing scene. Align Technology treated 3,000,000 individuals with Invisalign. Their…

Emerging zoonotic diseases (diseases caused by pathogens transmitted from animals to humans) like COVID-19 can have disastrous consequences on global human health. Many important health crises have been caused by zoonotic pathogens: think avian flu, SARS, Ebola, etc. Moreover, a large quantitative review has found that 75% of emerging pathogens are now zoonotic.https://www.tru.org.uk/post/world-organisations-call-for-live-animal-sales-in-food-markets-to-be-banned

How many people wear gloves in a gym? I realize a lot of power lifters don't prefer gloves. But I don't want calluses on my hands and the weights hurt lesser when I have gloves on. Are there any stats / surveys on the number of people that wear gloves vs those who don't?

I dreamed that an alien landed on my balcony and I talked to him. He was so nice and friendly and I’m still upset that he left :/ He said that he’s starting to get back pain because he doesn’t used to the gravity here on earth. I asked him if he has feelings and he said that he hasn’t, even thought he apperead super friendly and intelligent. He said that he is an super advanced AI, and that another aliens with feelings has depeloped him 7 billion lights years away from earth, but they can’t travel so far on space, so they’ve sent him to collect some data about the universe. He said that he’s scheduled to get back in his planet in a few million years. He also said that he …

No not steroids.. Bit of a problem that they share the same term.. Anyway, I got a vegetable and fruit juicer for my birthday so I thought I would try it out, always wanted to try the vegetable/fruit juice stuff as I'm really not a breakfast person and that would be much easier (some of the time). I tried a kale one and about two hours later I felt really sick, not feverish just sick. Another hour or so later I was praying to the toilet gods.. I could put this down to the vegetables being a little off and me not noticing, contamination or something but I've heard of juiced vegetables making people blow chunks too.. Just wondering if it happened to anyone here?

Usually in many Vegan restaurants I see images of happy farm cows and made me wonder what was the original wild animal. Now I read they have been back breeding to return the animal to the wilds. The earliest cows were mighty beasts that stood almost as tall as elephants, with lean, powerful frames and fearsome horns that would make a hunter think twice. For thousands of years the aurochs were the largest land mammals in Europe, until the rise of human civilization decimated their numbers, and the last of the species died in Poland in 1627 -- one of the first recorded cases of extinction. https://www.cnn.com/2017/01/09/world/auroch-rewilding/index.html

we’ve been together for the last month (we’ve met on Tinder) I have a lot of free time due to my automated affiliate marketing incomes, and she has a lot of time as well, so we’ve been able to see each other for almost every day for at least couple of hours. She lives 3 blocks from me which is great as well. The only problem is that she doesn’t wanna have sex. She is claiming to be a virgin (she’s 25) What do you think, how can I make her want to have sex asap? She’s horney but always stops me at some point. i don’t know what to do anymore :/ Help guys
