Thank El,

 

The next few months will be interesting for as I ventured back to

eating meat last year (May-2006) I also recommitted to going back to

the gym for weightlifting, which to me is a form of relaxation.

 

To make a long story short, I'm fifty-one(51) years young and upon

returning the weightlifting side of the gym, hooked up some some

guys 1/2 my age and was able, for an lifetime best, benchpress

345-lbs, I weigh 235-lbs so that is not a great feat weight wise,

but I'm happy to do that at my age.

 

Now the fun begins...

 

I do this (chest) routine with these guys every Monday and now that

I'm back " off " of meat, I'll keep close tabs as to my strength

maintenance for we do the same " calibration " of weights each time

for warm ups leading up to our " max " rep.

 

Guess I'm the prime guinea-pig for this experiment now huh

 

Technically " protein is protein " right? (Bill asks...)

 

For the argument has been in the weightlifting gyms that one needs

" meat " protein, not " veggie " protein to get the most _strength_ out

of ones muscles.

Bill, let them all go wrestle a gorilla and see who wins. Gorillas are

virtually vegan. (Yes, I know about the insect thing.)

 

It's not that all protein is the same, this is entirely false. It's that our

system is designed to use plant-originating proteins ... the kind that are

MUCH less acidic than the animal-originating proteins. The difference is

actually quite pronounced. AND ... you may go backward in order to go

forward.

 

Best,

Elchanan

Hi Bill,

 

The odors you describe arise from meat rotting within and from the highly

acidic nature of the proteins in meat. Short digestive systems that produce

gastric juice with a pH of 2 or less (give or take) digest meat reasonably

well. Long digestive systems that produce gastric juice with a pH of 4 or

above digest various forms of vegetation quite well. Humans fall entirely

into the second category.

 

Best to all, Elchanan
