@@stevenholton438 actually yes...when I make these, I usually manage to get 5 out of it and store the remaining 3 in the freezer for later....after my spouse and I each have one......sometimes I use almond butter, but be careful though as it tends to be a little less greasy compared to peanut butter....I also sometimes substitute quinoa for the zucchini as it tends to be a pretty good binding agent....

Kim K Animals aren't good sources of nutrition, including wild game, bc they live in the same polluted world. Saturated fat n cholesterol. Teeny amounts of Omegas because they eat plants, so why not eat the plants? Algae is the best source, and fish only have it bc they eat what eats algae, so leave the mercury/arsenic/parasites fish in the stripped out ocean. Lab-grown algae is clean and the omegas are best quality. Nope I'm not selling it. I get mine called DHA at Walmart in capsules. Only good byproducts from that industry.

Amino acids are found in plant foods...where do you think cows & animals get theirs? Just saying...skip the middle "cow" and just eat the plants! Easy peasy! Red meats and processed meats cause cancer...not "may" cause cancer but they do!
@danL10117 жыл бұрын
[skip the middle "cow" and just eat the plants! Easy peasy!] LOL. Easy peasy if humans were foregut or hindgut fermenters like horses and cows. You try sustaining yourself on grass and unlocking the amino acids in the fiber you can't digest. Do you regurgitate your food and have 4 low-acidic stomachs? [not "may" cause cancer but they do!] Show me a biochemical pathway for causality. You are more likely to get cancer from the carcinogen, aflatoxin on your peanuts or corn. Not to mention from chewing on tobacco than on meat. Funny how exclusive meat eating societies don't have cancer. Not for the 2.5 million years of human evolution where your stomach became MORE acidic than that of an obligate carnivore, your house cat. And not for current day meat eaters on their traditional diet like the Inuit and Maasai. When do they get cancer? When they eat western food like bread, sugar, and plant based grains. As for amino acids, good luck getting the proper balance and amount from plants without overloading on inflammatory plant toxins in high protein plant based foods. Did you miss the part about bio-available? And your colon is too short to handle the grains and beans which humans didn't eat until about 10,000 years ago.
@valnaples7 жыл бұрын
I urge you to check out The Blue Zones research by Dan Buettner...the longest lived cultures around the world eat mostly beans and whole grains....little if NO meat. Hey, stick to the meat if you want to...the SCIENCE says whole plant foods are best to ward off chronic illnesses like heart disease, diabetes...cancer...etc.
@danL10117 жыл бұрын
I read the book, but why are you ignoring the SCIENCE of physiology and biochemistry and pointing to a book about modern human eating habits? [the longest lived cultures...eat mostly beans and whole grains] And their brains are smaller than that of hunter gatherers 15,000 years ago who might easily live longer with access to modern medicine. [little if NO meat.] Only some of the BZ's. But if you actually read the book, the author concedes that he doesn't know whether the people live longer b/c of the little meat they invariably consumed (no plant-based only societies) or in spite of it. Perhaps Buettner should have made himself aware of the fact that the Okinawans who lived longer and STRONGER also ate MORE meat and dairy. journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/026010609200800312 donmatesz.blogspot.com/2017/05/high-animal-protein-intake-reduces.html Who knows how much longer Okinawans can live if they could afford to eat more pork which they love. Not to mention, if they didn't eat meat, they would have serious deficiencies of B-12 and A, D, and K2. [the SCIENCE says whole plant foods are best to ward off chronic illnesses...] Epi studies is not SCIENCE. And association is not causation. Maybe on a modern western diet, plants have some medicinal value. But the traditional diet, exclusive meat eating Inuit, Maasai, and Steppe Mongolians don't have modern chronic diseases of diabetics, cancer, etc. What wards off chronic diseases is not eating modern processed foods. Eating whole plant foods meets that criteria. But if you want to eat like a chimp or an ape, you need the digestive tract of a chimp or ape -- and you don't have one. Your acidic stomach kills beneficial bacteria needed to digest plant matter, your cecum has atrophied and your colon is too short. You have the digestive tract of a carnivorous leaning omnivore. You might not get chronic diseases, but you'll be prone to leaky gut, IBS, diverticulitis, and other digestive disorders. Just watch the YT vegans complain about their digestive issues. Have you considered the possibility that the diets of ALL Blue Zones might be sub-optimal? After all, beans and grains are a lot cheaper and easier to store than meat so it's not really surprising that modern people living in temperate climates eat more of these foods. People have been eating this diet for 10,000 years. This is what gave rise to civilization but also to the decline in human health. Anthropologists can easily spot the introduction of agriculture in a region. Life span drops precipitously, stature falls, teeth rot, bones degenerate, etc.
@danL10117 жыл бұрын
Holly: And I wonder why... if you love that meat of yours so much. YT brought me here. Who said I love meat? I actually loved my plant based foods -- green leafy veggies, root vegetables, tofu, noodles, grains. Unfortunately, humans have the digestive tract of carnivores. I can't do anything about 2.5 million years of evolution. My cecum (and yours) has atrophied to nothing, and our colon is too short to ferment much of plant based food. We can't eat like gorillas or even chimpanzees. They split off 4 million years ago. Humans have only been eating grains for at most 15,000 years -- a blink of the eye in evolutionary terms. So reluctantly I eat what my body has evolved to be optimized for in terms of nutrition. Like your household cat or dog, humans do not do well eating a plant based diet.
