Our two cents before we hand it over to a doctor:
Arnold felt the effects of plants more than usual because his diet was devoid of them. If you already eat veggies like your mother told you to, you're unlikely to find this more useful.
With that said, over to .
James Cameron, Executive Producer – is CEO of Verdiant Foods, an organic pea protein company with the goal of becoming “the largest pea protein fractionation facility in North America.” He invested $140 million.
Do you wonder why he made a movie to encourage you to go more plant based?
There is so much wrong I cannot cover it all.
James Wiliks, the main character injured in 2011 for 6 months, claims he spent 1,000 hours reading peer reviewed research on nutrition. That would mean that 1,000 hours is 8 hours of reading and research per day, for 125 out of the 180 days he was out of training.
There is not one human being I know that can do that, let alone an individual who is not trained to evaluate studies.
The integrity of the material you are told is none. What is true are the emotional tactics used.
Here is an example of how you are misled in the first 5 minutes, which is the theme of film.
It quotes a study that gladiators didn’t eat meat. It’s actually an article, not a study. It highlights that gladiators ate “a vegetarian diet rich in carbohydrates.”
The info doesn’t say the gladiators ate “no meat,” but just ate high carbohydrates (plants) to help with performance and gaining fat.
The gladiators were slaves, and fed like slaves, with a life expectancy of 2 years. McGregor vs Diaz fight from 2016 in which McGregor (meat eater) is defeated by Diaz (plant eater). They highlight that Diaz was given 11 days’ notice of the fight, as if he was the underdog, actually McGregor had to go up 2 weight classes to fight Diaz, and was 15-20lbs lighter than Diaz in the ring. Maybe McGregor needed to eat more carbs, but maybe he just got beat by someone bigger.
Can someone excel with high carbohydrate/low quality protein? Maybe with extreme energy output, but not the average athlete or person. Its metabolic consequences are devastating.
