Not really, it feels too forced to me.

Hi, recently I've been opting for naturally sparkling water such as Perrier, Ferrarelle, San Pellegrino and so on because it's bottled in glass and comes from a natural source. I tried to figure out if they contaminate the water with fluoride (I know there's fluoride in it, but isn't it the naturally occurring type?) or other chemicals but couldn't find any information. Would appreciate if any of you know.

@JohnnyAb Great. If so, this is really the best water you can get.

Well, I'm mainly interested in the 3 I stated because they are the ones available where I live. I mean do they dump chemicals into the spring water?

@Preety_India Aren't you vegetarian?

A proper diet, then you won't feel like you need drugs to get through the day.

Naturally sparkling water in glass bottles is the best you'll find in my experience.

Blööööööd

From a quick search about this guy, it appears he's being promoted by Impossible Meat which he claims is, with all the oxidized vegetable oils, artificial flavoring and phyto-estrogens, healthier than plain grass-fed steak. He's also a big fan of GMO and industrialized foods. Really not worth listening to. Also what is "the ketogenic diet"? Pardon if he elaborates on what specifically they eat as I didn't go through it, but the term is broad enough to include vegans, carnivores, omnivors, junk food addicts, raw primals and so on, altogether. It's no secret that most of those are unhealthy despite being ketogenic.

It makes you feel more alert because it adrenalizes you (a response to being under attack or poisoning). Has nothing to do with brain health, and the same goes for theobromine in chocolate.

Caffeine is a nerve-irritant that makes your body produce stress hormones (cortisol and adrenaline), and the coffee beans themselves are full of natural toxins (seeds don't want to be eaten) and pesticides. Long-term coffee addiction is a straight ticket to adrenal fatigue, ruined gut flora and yellow teeth.

Morality doesn't exist anywhere outside of your mind, just spend one day out in the jungle and you'll learn that. I don't know why you're even having this conversation.

And a self-admitted sociopath who wants to step on newborn babies until they're nothing but blood and pulp on the pavement. But wait, he's a vegan, that makes him a compassionate person. A typical example of how people use veganism as a façade to hide how hungry and aggressive they are (just look at the company we got right here). It's all about ego, after all.

Ahhh, more shitposting from you Right, "eat meat" is dangerous advice guys, instead y'all should deprive yourself of meat and become drug-dependent patients who inject/pop the whole lot of nutrients a vegan diet lacks.

lol what the fuck? I'm trying to save OP's life here with valid arguments that our vegan friends here so far couldn't counter — we have @datamonster not providing any argument and simply calling 'this is BS', @Scholar starting a pseudo-spiritual evaluation of me after running out of relevant things to say (essentially ego-driven attacks to avoid the topic), and finally @neutralempty outright shitposting and calling me a malicious sociopath — and now we have you joining the party and abusing your mod power, and it's ME who's getting warned. What a joke. If it's all "rhetoric" and "misinformation", why don't you provide an argument instead of silencing people? @Leo GuraHow do you allow religious vegans police the forum around like this?

What is this pseudo-spiritual nonsense about hatred now? I'm actually doing you a loving favour by helping you snap out of your religion, so if you have nothing better to say then just say "thanks, I'll reconsider veganism". Thrive? You can survive on it for 5-10-15 years (depending how good your diet was prior to veganism) while having to pop synthetic toxic pills everyday, until you'll finally develop very serious issues. Nobody ever thrived on veganism, it was always either a form of fasting or a slave diet (also a concentration camp diet). You can't "fix" nature, it'll always end up a disaster.

They're tools, and they aren't remotely aware of that. That's how conscious they are.

yeeaaa br0 its 2021 bro lets ignore the fact that humans have a carnivorous digestive tract and lets become herbivores overnight! yea man we're cool trendy vegans yooo

@Scholar Says a vegan, I assume?

Yes, the moment I see its red flesh. How can I be culturally indoctrinated to enjoy my *natural diet*? I was rather told that veggies are healthy, despite my instincts telling me to spit them out. Ironically you think I season or even cook my meat, which I don't - I eat it raw without even a pinch of salt and it's the perfect food. People who overcook their meat need to season it because it's not even meat anymore. And do you eat raw broccoli, or do you cook it, salt it, season it and mix it with 10 other ingredients? Go eat a whole bowl of raw spinach. Chimps do and they enjoy it, as it is their natural diet. Humans have to hide the taste and pretend they enjoy it because someone told them it's healthy (oxalates, nitrates, phytates... yuck). Sweets and burgers are synthetic foods that were made to manipulate your taste buds, hence they're irrelevant to the argument. As I said, you can eat insects, it's simply that they are a survival food and are much less appealing or nutritious than a nice lamb steak. As I said, less nutritious. All of your cells are made of saturated fat, your brain is made of cholesterol, the most prized and healthiest foods in nature are rich in cholesterol & saturated fat (brain, liver, fish roe, eggs), breast milk is rich in cholesterol & saturated fat and it's the only food a baby needs. Even monkeys ferment fiber in their colon and turn it into saturated fat, which you can't btw as you fiber is indigestible for humans. If despite all of this you're gonna spout agenda-driven psuedo-science, you're a religious person. What veggies did our ancestors consume, exactly? You do know that all veggies are man-made, right? We had some fruit in season, which was much smaller and not as sweet as modern fruit. To think that anyone based their diet on it is laughable. That's why there was never a single vegan tribe on earth. Heart disease is a modern disease caused by sugar and vegetable oils, it was almost nonexistent 100 years ago. It has nothing to do with meat that we've been eating forever. You're not making a lot of sense..? Watch and compare

For anyone who took amalgams out: I was wondering how long it takes to feel a difference? Is it something that you only feel over the years? I got mine out a week ago and it's still hard to tell.

@Scholar You can eat insects if you have to, though by instinct they are unappealing since many of them are toxic and they're anyhow less nutritious than other animals (I don't get what makes you think we should prefer them above cows). Does seeing a cockroach make your mouth water? If not, then you're not a baboon and your question is answered. Those vegetables you're talking about don't exist in nature and were cultivated by humans a few hundred to a few thousand years ago, which is certainly not enough time for your entire digestive tract to change - which it won't anyway - if you feed a wolf grains it'll just get sick and die prematurely, not "evolve" into a herbivore. We didn't have domesticated cows 10,000 years ago, true, but we just hunted wild buffalo or mammoths instead. Human is an apex predator (hence the carnivorous digestive tract), we're not bound to live off of ants. @lau Go for it, you won't regret it.

It makes all the difference.

@Scholar I'll just leave this here. Since you think you're a baboon, I was wondering why you don't base your diet on unripe fruit which you ferment in your colon, beside the insects?

News don't exist for the sake of informing you but for the sake of fearmongering, so much so that most people who watch the news nowadays are afraid to breath fresh air. Even before this shitshow, most of what you'd see in news is death and politics. It's a form of entertainment made for dull-witted slaves.
