[@pnewm10]

​@@simonadventures3727 Actually, vegan food industry is a compartmented segment within the "food industry" (remember the food industry as a whole is rampant with unethical marketing and practices) that is in direct competition with conventional meat/dairy - who lobbies the DoA to allow for more environmentally destructive practices and questionable business ethics. The Vegan food industry actually is pretty well known for combating this very idea. So in essence it is quite the opposite since the agenda is about ethics and sustainability.

Clarence stating openly that he didn't care about how it would affect his performance speaks volumes about his character. Most people are far to selfish to give even the slightest bit of consideration to the suffering of the animals they eat, and would never imagine sacrificing their taste pleasure, especially if it would affect their athletic performance.

[@carpediem6568]

Watched a million, trllion fitness - healthy eating - lifestyle videos. Clarence is the first and only person who mentions the importance of enrichment of foods. Thought I was the only one who sees this as an underated aspect of good health.

[@lenisemicolon]

carpe diem It’s really no different having a B12 supplement than having B12 fortified foods except that a supplement is more reliable.

[@carpediem6568]

@@lenisemicolon There is more enrichment than just B12. Look at a box of white rice. After enrichments, more nutritional value than long grain. One of the wonderful success stories; after cereals were mandated to include folic acid, birth defects declined significantly in the US. By the time a woman becomes pregnant, it's too late. Good government policy and the power of science.

[@lenisemicolon]

carpe diem I was just giving one example since B12 will always come from some kind of supplementation. My point is that eating a multivitamin and eating fortified foods are two ways to accomplish the same thing whereas micronutrients directly from foods may be absorbed differently and more readily in their original package than they would be as an extract.

[@carpediem6568]

@@lenisemicolon You're correct. I realized my mistake after I sent my response. No idea which nutrient vehicle is most efficient. But, wouldn't you rather consume something liberally fortified if you had the choice? Reading labels for saturated fat saved my life. Only recently started looking at enrichment. White rice causes more insulin spike but has excellent nutritional value. Yet you wouldn't know it from media.

[@carpediem6568]

@@lenisemicolon Would add that the enrichment process must be highly effective if it is that successful in lowering birth defects.

Someone should seriously very seriously consider sponsoring Clarence to become an Olympian. He has good very good potential it might be an Olympic champion and he's already at a level which is very high. In terms of age it's actually not true that where people who became Olympic Champions at age 40 and weightlifting and some of them didn't start early either

[@lenisemicolon]

Raw Power If I remember correctly he has some moral opposition to the Olympics and chooses not to compete.

[@rawpower2672]

@@lenisemicolon the opposition is that it's impossible in certain countries do use substances that need to be used in order to get anywhere near the podium. If you get this guy a proper sponsorship he will move to a different place where he can do the best out of himself and still be able to compete. The way this works is athletes use substances offseason and then get clean before competition he can't do it now because as soon as he signs up for a competition at least a year in advanced if it's a national competition he will get tested several times a month so it's impossible.. you can also buy off the people who come and do the testing that takes a lot of money though.

[@lenisemicolon]

Raw Power I hadn’t gotten to the point in the video where he recaps this, I was remembering back to a Q&A where he discussed the same thing. It sounds like his point is that overall the playing field isn’t level because there are different standards for different athletes; that wouldn’t change no matter what standards he was being held to. Seems like he is satisfied with his strength and doesn’t need an Olympic qualification to validate it.

[@guidojorgemamanicondori8309]

Lol...dude's on gear thats the reason he doesnt compete. His lifts are closed to klokovs

I've always been curious to try going vegan for a period to see (I've done vegetarian before, like 3/4 of my life because I don't consume much meat) but I'm allergic to soy. Vegetarian diet didn't affect performance or digestion so great only that I cannot find vegan foods without soy that have good macros. Any suggestions?

[@calwalsh9924]

Beans and legumes like lentils, chickpeas, kidney beans etc. are a good source of protein and moderate amounts of carbs. There's seitan, which is wheat protein; very meaty in texture and has a massive amount of protein. It you don't have a gluten intolerance, seitan is a good choice. And then as far as mock meats go, there are plenty of wheat protein and pea protein products out there which are soy free. Brian Turner does 'full day of eating' videos on KZbin and he has done a few soy free days just to give his fans with soy allergies some ideas. The info is out there if you look in the right places. Best of luck! 🌱
