We’re not destroying the planet, we’re destroying our offspring (and those of many other species). The planet will still be covered in life after we’re gone.
Save the planet is not only false. But less impactful than just save humankind.
Trying to convert humanity back to low meat diets (again a much easier sell and the real issue is mass production). It is more likely if people are convinced it is their children to great grand children that will Suffer/Die/never happen. Rather than suggesting all life will end.
The sun god will still burn. Just like you did after the last great extinction.
Sorry could not resist the silly joke. I’ll go hide in a bottle now
A high carbohydrate and so high insulin-producing plant-based diet certainly isn’t healthy for me. The evidence that it is extremely problematic for many if not most people is compelling.
Read The China Study and the work by Dr Neal Bernard. Type 2 diabetes can be reversed (not always, but it can be) or reduced. My mum had her dose of type 2 meds reduced by about half when she went on a plant based diet, because her blood sugar went too low on her regular dose.
You didn’t say what diet your mum changed from. You could replace a lot of grains and root vegetables (very high in carbohydrate), (not to mention high sugar) with a lot of non-root vegetables and see a big reduction in diabetes symptoms, but that doesn’t mean the diet is particularly low carbohydrate.
Traditional Indian omni diet. You don’t need to go low carb. In fact the desired ratio is 80% carbs, 10% protein, 10% fat. She still had grains and other carbs. It’s about the type of carbs (slow digesting). For example bread will nearly always be high GI because the yeast has done the digestion for you. Whereas white pasta will be lower, because it takes a long time to digest. Carbs are good, as long as it’s the right type of carbs.
People who say they’ve reversed their diabetes by going low carb haven’t reversed it, because it would come right back if they ate carbs. It’s like saying I made my arm fireproof by not holding a flame to it. Whereas going high fibre, low fat, low GI will allow you to still eat carbs without sugar spikes.
As I said, look into the work of Neal Barnard, who has reversed type 2 diabetes without cutting carbs and without any other lifestyle changes besides diet.
In response you told me you had, but that it didn’t need to be low carb. Then you suggested an Indian diet, as if everybody in the UK is going to adopt that. You are talking nonsense. This is an easy block for being a waste of time.
I genuinely think that most people in the UK would rather destroy the planet than give up eating some meat.

This is a point that needs pushing more.

What about a low carbohydrate plant-based diet?
Please direct me to a low carbohydrate plant-based diet.
I’m not sure what you mean by "direct"ing you to a diet.
“Eat low amounts of carbohydrates in a plant-based diet.” Is that direction enough?
Oh I see, it’s the angry non-factual person.
I am not wasting my time with this. Block it is.

You asked to be directed. So I’ve directed you.
I said direct me to a low carb plant based diet.
In response you told me you had, but that it didn’t need to be low carb. Then you suggested an Indian diet, as if everybody in the UK is going to adopt that. You are talking nonsense. This is an easy block for being a waste of time.
