Why aren't you a nutritarian?

Because Dr. Fuhrman is a hack.

The basic premise of eating lots of nutrient dense foods is sound, but 80% of the research he quotes has been disproven or was designed with a bias to promote veganism.


Yeah, eat tons of vegetables, fruit, nuts, seeds, legumes. Knock yourself out. But don't follow his diet plans. Even for vegans they are lacking.

I eat exactly like one, but then I add meat because I actually want to, you know, feel and perform well.

How the fuck do you eat 60% of calories as green vegetables? You'd have to be eating all day long, that's like 5 meals of salads for only half your days calories.

1200 calories is nine pounds of green beans, or six pounds of kale

fun story for you anons

> aunt G and uncle B are skinnyfats
> aunt G reads Fuhrman's book, goes all gonzo for his diet plan
> uncle B jumps on board
> they go from skinnyfat to just emaciated
> we all go on a family trip, they eat soymilk and salad the whole time
> won't shut up about how awesome it is
> Aunt N and Uncle R get convinced to do this, too
> they all buy the books and go on the diet plan
> six months later Aunt G starts acting kinda crazy
> She'd have these emotional meltdowns and berserker rages for no reason at all
> uncle B starts acting weird too
> really irritable and spacey
> Aunt N actually gains weight
> uncle R starts sleepwalking
> one night to crosses the street and enters a convenience store in his boxers
> he punches a dude who laughs at him, then walks out with case of beer without paying
> doesn't remember shit

turns out they were all going crazy from lacking some essential vitamins
turns out a lot of vegans develop violent impulses when their B vitamins get too low

Aunt G starts eating eggs and fish again, and is back to normal in a week
Uncle R eats some cheeseburgers, stops sleepwalking and having blackouts
Aunt N starts eating protein again, starts losing weight
Uncle B is still on the diet and emaciated and weird

did you miss the other eight chapters in all his books where he tells people they don't have to be vegan on his diet, but if they eat animal protein in any form they will die of kidney failure and/or cancer?

More like Memetarian.

>meats and cheeses rarely

Into the trash it goes.

Jesus fucking christ. Your vitamin K intake would literally be over 10000% the daily value. I mean, I don't that it's possible to overdose on Vitamin K, but you'd sure as fuck find out.

I tried a raw food diet once. Like smoothies with Rae broccoli, no cooked food.
Had the biggest, most green shits of my entire life, with the same butt texture as the mouthfeel.

What is bioavailability, humans aren't gorillas.

Plus there being no evidence that eating "nutrient dense" has any unique superiority.
