Such a concise explanation of the topic. I have dealt with this conflict since I was first introduced to Hatha yoga and Krishna Consciousness at age 17 (I'm 26 now). The conflict of listening to one-self and intuition OVER adhering to a religious doctrine and sacrificing your life in the process. Lessons that strengthen the spirit. Thank you for another balanced perspective on life Dr. Halpern. It is not so much what we do, but the heart and mind (spirit) we perform our actions in. Bless
I'm Vata and since introducing meat into my diet after nearly 25 years of bring vegan + vegetarian, I FINALLY feel like I'm absorbing nutrients and I've been trained in Ayurveda and have prepared my food well for years but still was not absorbing enough. My sleep has improved tremendously as well. I only eat organic, small farm free range chicken and wild caught seafood. I don'd do well with cheese and don't like the taste of ghee but I do eat eggs every day. Honestly, I'm eating more intuitively and feel so much better for it.
That’s great! Yes, plant foods which are indigestible, will compete for digestion when consumed with animal foods in the same meal. The animal foods will digest wholly and completely, so long as there are no plant foods to compete with and limit the bioavailability of the nutrients in those animal foods. I’ve been on an animal-centric diet (5 years) with little to no vegetables, just a few grains (for comfort ~5% of total) and I’m doing extremely well. No visible signs of inflammation in the body. I’m 52 and pass for 32. Animal-centric is the diet we are designed to eat.
Once you’ve been animal-centric for awhile you will be very connected with what your body requires...naturally you will realize that meat like chicken doesn’t serve the body well as you begin to crave more saturated fat and more of the fatty meats, like smoked brisket is my #1 meat, simply because I smoke my own meat for 14-16 hours. It becomes so tender and digestible, it literally melts in your mouth. I’m not much of a fan of rib-eyes any more because they feel like more of a chore to chew to get to that next morsel, besides them being so expensive. The only fowl I really consume now is whole duck, which I roast in an air fryer for best, crispy results. It and the smoked brisket are two meats that will make the synapses in your brain sing with every bite. Ultimately, you will crave saturated fat to the point of a 70/30 constitution of 70% of your calories from saturated fat, with the majority of the rest from protein. Too much protein, without the saturated fat, can leave you feeling sluggish or bored after some time. A 1:1 ration of fat:protein will yield that 70% fat outcome because fat has 9 calories per gram vs protein’s 4 calories per gram (7.7:7.5) ratio.
Wow. It seems we are running a similar path. I've been trying to eat only vegetarian foods (organic eggs, almost no cheese) and felt very well as regards candida and mind clearness but felt a bit not grounded and a bit short of strength. I am intuitevely starting to eat small free range chicken to see how I feel.
I'm a Vata/Pitta and have a lot of intolerances and allergies. I cannot be 100% vegan and I don't do well on dairy or most grains. I wish I could be vegan and he healthy
Same. I can only eat beef, salt, and water. I've gained ten much needed pounds and started improving my health. Call me an ayurvedic breatharian, i only eat meat as medicine and just breathe air as food. ;)
I have inflammatory bowel disease and it gets worse any time I don’t eat meat. My body cannot absorb plant proteins well at all- based on severely low albumin, iron and protein levels. Morally, it is hard for me because I do not enjoy taking the lives of animals but I need to survive (so I choose to eat meat). I am a pitta vata or vata pitta (switch between both).
Our bodies are designed to eat meat, not plants. Plants are indigestible. I healed my leaky gut over four years ago by switching to a diet of nothing but animal foods. I may have carbs one a week. But with a healthy gut biome from eating nothing but animal foods, I suffer no indigestion or heartburn. Zero digestive issues and I have a BM about once every 36 hours, only have to eat one meal a day, because what I eat nourished me completely. I don’t eat any chicken because it doesn’t have enough fat. Mostly fatty red meat, the fattier the better. Eat roast duck. Very little pork as it’s not optimal type of fat, mostly unsaturated, so will eat just a little bit of bacon for the protein, and I will typically wrap that bacon in some fatty French double Brie. Consume lots of heavy cream and buttermilk is good too. You can make dishes that incorporate ground meat in with the heavy cream and grated cheese that is melted and combined. I’m 52 and look like someone who looks good for 34 yo.
I eat chicken and fish is it ok and nowadays it is difficult to get nourished from the veggies so it is needed these days to consume the meat, but we need guidance to have it properly. So as per the Ayurveda I'm consuming it not as a regular but as 2-3 times a month. Please give me some guidance...
So can i be considered ayurvedic breatharian if i eat meat as medicine and no plants or plant products? I have serious health issues. Eating only meat salt and water, and occasional fasting is reversing said health issues. However, i may not be allowed to embark on the spiritual path I feel is correct due to not being vegetarian or vegan. Not certain. All ik is healing is happening. My mind and body are healing. Btw, meat is easy to digest, unlike plants. I sense confirmation bias here.
My husband is an avid angler and he's a hunter. Both are the most humane way to eat animals. I've see him hunt, and the animals is happily grazing, and it dies immediately. I've learned that millions of animators die each day, in order for farmers to grow vegetables. It's less known and visible, but it happens. Farmers lease their land to hunters, to kill animation who eat their crops. They set up traps to kill animals who eat their vegetables, they use poison to kill animation who eat their grains. They take over millions of acres in order to grow plants, killing hundreds of thousands of animals and their habitat. In the way to the supermarkets, trucks, boats and airplanes cause a lot of pollution, and also kill millions of animals per day, on the road, in the air etc. I did a lot of research on this, and the amount of animals killed so I could eat a vegan diet is enormous. In aspirin, another research I made is about plants, and scientists are realizing ankh this has been known for a while now, that plants do feel stress and pain. Even bushes in our garden sense there's another bush that's not doing so well, let's day it's not getting enough water and minerals, the other bushes send water and minerals needed through their root system. If you sensor a plant, and burn or cut off its leaf, it gets stressed out. So, then, what can we eat? Many of my friends who used to be,, or still are vegan, or even vegetarian, if they need the proteins only found in meats, they get exceptionally ill, and weak, and their hair, and nail become brittle. I don't believe all of us were meant to only be plant based, and I believe we all need to eat what's good for us. Also, it is believed that pushing a plant based diet have been in the past, and today, a political issue. In the past when there was tremendous poverty in India, the powerful leaders came up with the idea that cows are sacred so the starving population won't break into the affluent, and elitists if the time's land, and kill and eat the cows. They kept the cows for themselves, and ate them in secret. They told the people that being vegetarians were the only way to eat, and made it a religious, sprititual belief. With time, it was the only way, abs out Bevan the norm, and the political reasons were buried and hidden from the people. Today, they're doing the same thing. As Bill Gates and his global elitists friend are enjoying a wagyu steak, from a grass fed, and finished cow, they push vegans, and vegetarianism on us, and try to get us to believe meats made in a laboratory is the way to go. Of course he and his friends have money invested in this program. 500 years from now, eating any animal directly is morally wrong, and people who do that would be shunned, and looked down upon, lije a gross criminal, and yet, they probably will continue to kill and eat what would be them an exotic animal, while enjoying a glass of Barbera, and truffles makes potatoes. In fact, many scientists believe that the reason we are the humans we know today is, that after we discovered fire, we were able to eat meat more often, and that our brain grew bigger, making us smarter. I've seen a living man in my life, and entrepreneur whose a multimillionaire become quiet, and submissive to his wife, both look much older, with white hat or thinning hair abs skin, with more wrinkles over their face, within two years they went mostly vegetarian. They even cut oils. Us friends are talking, and noticed that this bright man, is forgetful, and rapidly becoming senile - Very sad. I think he's a person who needs meats, but his wife talked him into not. It's so sad... I'm not saying that being a vegetarian or a vegan is wrong, but I think it's for a few people, not all of us. I'm not sure this is true, and you could post it here if you find it, but some scientists claim Theo have never found an ancient society who only survived on a plant based diet . People have gone vegetarian out of necessity, not to starve, but the minute they were able to, they would eat meat, and plenty of it, with the organs and all. Lessons to you all, and especially who took the time to read this very long comment 😊🙏🌷
