More energy is one of the (many) benefits.





Why would a meatless diet result in more energy? Sounds like a placebo to me.
I would expect the opposite unless you were careful about replacing the protein you are missing out on.



Nonsense.  Meat industry propaganda.

OK.......but why would you have MORE energy?



"You’ll have more energy. Good nutrition generates more usable energy——energy to keep pace with the kids, tackle that home improvement project or have better sex more often, Michael F. Roizen, MD, says in The RealAge Diet. Too much fat in your bloodstream means that arteries won’’t open properly and that your muscles won’’t get enough oxygen. The result? You feel zapped. Balanced vegetarian diets are naturally free of cholesterol-laden, artery-clogging animal products that physically slow us down and keep us hitting the snooze button morning after morning. And because whole grains, legumes, fruits and vegetables are so high in complex carbohydrates, they supply the body with plenty of energizing fuel."

Big Money Is Feeding Us Plastic

Published on Feb 4, 2014
Vani "The Food Babe" Hari discovered that Subway makes bread with an ingredient called azodicarbonamide. It can be found in almost all the breads at Subway restaurants here in North America, but not in Europe, Australia or other parts of the world.

http://foodbabe.com/2013/09/23/are-you-eating-this-ingredient-banned-all-over-th...

...

FOOD BABE TV: Are You Eating This Ingredient Banned All Over The World?
By Food Babe



Azodicarbonamide 101
Azodicarbonamide is a yellow orangish powder, more commonly used commercially in the creation of foamed plastics – like yoga mats, shoe soles, floor mats and window gaskets.
The FDA allows food companies to use azodicarbonamide as a flour bleaching agent and dough conditioner in any food product giving it a status of GRAS or “Generally Regarded As Safe”.
But, the FDA doesn’t even keep track of the companies who use azodicarbonamide as an ingredient. The lack of information leads the FDA to not update or include an toxicity information about this ingredient in its EAFUS or “Everything Added to Food in the United States” database.
When a truck carrying azodicarbonamide overturned on a Chicago highway in 2001, it prompted city officials to issue the highest hazardous materials alert and evacuate people within a half mile radius! Many of the people on the scene complained of burning eyes and skin irritation as a result. (Source: Pandora’s Lunchbox by Melanie Warner)
The U.K. has recognized azodicarbonamide as a potential cause of asthma if inhaled, and advises against its use in people who have sensitivity to food dye allergies and other common allergies in food, because it can exacerbate the symptoms.
The World Health Organization (WHO) studied azodicarbonamide, and also linked it to asthma and other allergic reactions.
When azodicarbonamide partially degrades with the heat of processing, it forms trace amounts of semicarbazide, which shows carcinogenicity that can result in tumors over time.
The United States is one of the only countries in the world that still allows this ingredient in our food supply. It is banned as a food additive in the U.K., Europe, and Australia, and if you get caught using it in Singapore you can get up to 15 years in prison and be fined $450,000. I’d like to see the head of the FDA put in jail for allowing it, wouldn’t you?

Popular Products That Contain Azodicarbonamide
Sara Lee (many of their breads, bagels, etc.)

...

...

...

...

...

...

These are just a few examples, but there are many more companies that use azodicarbonamide in their products (Pizza Hut, Publix Grocery Store, Jason’s Deli, etc)

Why The Heck Are Companies Using This Ingredient?
Dough conditioners allow companies to pass off chemically processed cheap food as “freshly baked” because it recreates perfect, evenly packed air pockets within the dough, improving the texture after coming out of large industrial machines from processing. If a company uses azodicarbonamide as a flour bleaching agent it speeds up the processing, making bread larger and whiter than normal. Faster processing with cheaper ingredients = more money in Big Food pockets.

The Next Time You See Your Friends or Family, Ask Them:

...

Remember to buy organic bakery goods that prohibit the use of highly questionable chemical ingredients like azodicarbonamide and other dough conditioners. Please spread the word and share this video with everyone you know… no one should be eating yoga mats, their shoe sole or a floor mat. Yuck.
Till next time…

I think you will find that is vegetarian industry propaganda

Good nutrition generates more energy, but a well balanced omnivorous diet is no less nutritious than a well balanced vegetarian one.

because it takes more energy to digest red meat than fish, whiet meat and veegatbles. 

Of course, if you bother to chew it properly, there's not much differnce at all.  But who's got time for that these days eh?

A lot of stuff grown broadacre—grains, legumes—kills a LOT more life—small mammals, reptiles even birds as the plough goes over them.

As to more energy—my sister, when she comes to visit, plunks herself down on the coach and sits there, seeming to try and drain energy out of the room. Loony toons stuff.

To respect the life taken away to provide me with meat and bacon etc I have decided to eat more “odd bits” like tongues, sweetbreads and offal. Use and enjoy more bones too—rich marrow.

Not to eat some animal protein is unnatural and deprives you of a pleasure of the earth.

You can chew red meat like a cow for a long time before you swallow, and it won't make much difference to the digestion of the meat. Your liver has to digest the meat after what the stomach does to it. Trust me, I had a steak dinner (a big steak) for dinner last night, and I was hungry again an hour after eating. Your digestion depends on your hunger levels. If you are an over eater like myself, your body begins to increase the metabolism, even if you are eating enough to put on the weight. But if you have an afternoon without eating, and a light lunch, your metabolism slows slightly, but will be fast enough to burn off something filling like steak.

yes it will.  It's very simple - chewing increases the surface area, thus facilitating quicker break down in the stomach. 

Eating like a pig isn't just about how much you eat, it's also how you eat it.

Thnk of it in the same way as tyou would if you were trying to defrost a piece of meat.

you can leave it in one big frozen lump and it takes much more time and energy as it would if you broke it up into smaller pieces.

Btw, if you want to live longer go on a Mediterranean diet...  they have about 80% less rates of heart failure... or something like that...

I can't stand much seafood etc so I have fish oil tablets each day...

Don't eat crumbled fish btw...

My point being that the food gets digested according to your metabolic rate. Whereas cutting out red meat from your diet isn't going to help with your weight loss. It's the fat content with which that you should be concerned.
