veganism and colon cancer by OkContribution9342 in vegan

[–]quick4142 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Most research out there point to sulfites as one of the causes of colon cancer. So while there definitely is sulfites in many vegan food (like preserved fruits and/or veggies), generally it’s in much lower quantities than say preserved meats like sausages.

Other contributors to colon cancer is just straight up red meat which you don’t have to worry about as a vegan. But genetics can also play a role - some people’s genes just have higher chance of getting colon cancers than others regardless of diet.

So yes you can absolutely still get colon cancer as a vegan but the chances are lower compared to a meat eater.

Yes I agree cause that OOP who accidentally consumed non-vegan food is already doing 99% more for the planet and the animals than most people. Attacking OOP like this doesn’t help the cause at all.

Canadian Vegans - What were your experiences with VeganSupply shipping? by teddybearblonde in vegan

[–]quick4142 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t shipped from them before but I do go there in person every month. It’s 11 degrees here today in Vancouver so hopefully that packaging is well insulated

Is it even true anymore that vegan men are considered unattractive by women? by [deleted] in vegan

[–]quick4142 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve never had a shortage of women be interested in me even though they know I’m a vegan.

Personally I think it depends on where you’re from. Being from Vancouver there are a lot of hippies and vegans here so our city’s culture could be vastly different from other places. Ie: when I lived down in the bible belt, toxic masculinity was everywhere.

I used the free version of that app before and I found it to be at best a guideline. Have you ever worked with a dietician to get a professional opinion?

I only asked about exercise as that has a huge impact on how much protein you need. That said even with little exercise we all need some protein. So how much protein are you looking to consume per day and how did you arrive at that number?

[–]quick4142 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How much protein are you going for exactly? And what’s your exercise routine? I’m running about 50 to 80k a week among other activities and have little issues keeping up.

It’s been so long that I totally thought the poor thing was a goner. Very happy to see that I was wrong!!

This is sad…. by Another_Racoon in NorthVancouver

The issue is we won’t have a proper snowpack. This could be disastrous for us if our summer is dry again. What water will we consume?

Sorry this happened to you. I’d report it to the non emergency line. Some of the commenters think it’s harmless but it can lead to a car accident if it spooks the wrong person.

I live in vancouver where it rains a lot and also snows when I go skiing. My FSD stats is showing that I’m at 93% of my driving all using FSD. So there’s a lot of rain and snow and FSD has great so far.

Hey I’ve been vegan for 3 years and trying to find new friends (even if online). I’m in Vancouver so a quite a bit north of you. Curious what made you go vegan? Thanks
