Protein for Vegans and Vegetarians

[Monica]

since gut bacteria are living creatures, maybe their choices about themselves trump ours.

One thing that is kind of creepy, and has been scientifically validated, is that gut bacteria can influence our minds and emotional states. They can even affect our food cravings so that we are more likely to eat foods that support their growth. Explains why some people with Candida have such a difficult time getting the processed sugar out of their diets.

We have more bacteria in our bodies than we do human cells. Very disconcerting! Especially knowing what we know from Ra about higher density beings using lower 2D beings to influence us.

We know that certain foods can result in changes to our DNA, and that those changes can be passed onto the next generation.

I heard this from both the superfoods companies and some of the practitioners who recommend Electrolyzed Reduced Water. I think rapid mutation is likely occurring right now.

Update:

You got me on the human milk math, Tenet. Thank you for that! I never paid much attention to protein because I knew vegetarian foods were adequate. My mistake, however, was in being confused about the amount of vegetarian foods to meet protein requirements, primarily because of that "human breastmilk has very low protein" myth floating around. Since so much of what I'd been taught was wrong, I questioned the 'established facts' about protein too, and this was reinforced by that breastmilk point.

By doing the math on babies and milk, you've convinced me that the chemistry holds true. While I do believe in the possibility of rapid mutation as we transition, I also recognize the laws of chemistry. (This is why I steadfastly adhere to what I know about hydration. It's simple chemistry.)

So, after being impressed by your presentation about babies and milk, I counted my protein grams. And lo and behold! I came up short! Not by much, and certainly not because of poor food choices, but because I just don't eat much.

I often say "I should be skinny, as little as I eat!" which has always been very annoying...I eat clean and lean, and according to the old school thought, I really should be skinny. But I'm not. I've had some stubborn weight that hadn't budged no matter what I did!

Well, I now realize that weight loss has eluded me because I don't eat enough. :idea: Since I've been about 10-20 grams beneath the minimum protein threshold, I probably wasn't getting enough to feed the muscles which in turn would turn on the fat burning metabolism. WOW!

So, yesterday I made a point to get the 'casual athlete' level of protein. All vegan, all raw.

(By the way, last week I tried tossing in a raw egg into my smoothie...I did this 3 days, and very single time I got joint pain in my hands and a dry mouth! My body clearly doesn't want eggs! Cooked eggs are too heavy for me, so I am now officially Beegan...vegan except for a bit of organic honey.)

Here's what I ate yesterday:

Upon arising: After my usual quart of ionized water, I had 2 nectarines.

A little later, I had a smoothie made of almond/flax/chia milk, + purslane + hemp hearts + SunWarrior Raw Vegan protein powder. (I recently quit mixing protein and fruit, because I do better eating them separately.)

Lunch was a pint of fresh veggie juice (cucumber, kale, carrot, turmeric, red&yellow bell pepper) and a bowl of lentil sprouts covered in a dressing made from raw tahini, garlic, and tomato. Yum! I calculate that had as much protein as the breakfast shake.

After doing my afternoon Sun worshiping, I had some watermelon.

Dinner was another protein smoothie. And I wasn't hungry any more after that.

This wasn't a regular day for me. It was an experiment.

Well, I not only slept great, but woke up an hour earlier than normal, with more energy than normal! I went for a walk this morning, then did 3 sets of weight training, then some rebounder. I had fruit before the walk, and another protein shake after the workout.

I gotta admit, I can definitely tell a difference!!

This proves to me, for me anyway, that I truly don't need any animal foods, but I do need to make sure I get the minimum amount of protein. I was the victim of the 'eat less get skinny' mentality and that did work for me the first time, 30 years ago, but it sure didn't work when I got older.

I feel much better after having more vegan protein, than I did when I was trying the eggs. This says to me that it's the quantity, not the quality, in this case, that was the issue.

Thanks for providing an important missing piece, Tenet!

I have read this before. Not entirely accurate. We may have presets but we also have a game of free will. Conscious choice. Even demons can be epigenetic.

Maybe genetics are in the category of automatic random catalyst, but can be overridden by conscious choice.
