New fashion spread on social networks: Medics worry

There is a growing number of videos when promoting the so -called meat diet offers to stop eating vegetables and other plant products.

The initiators of such a diet say that this diet may help to get rid of unnecessary kilograms. The doctor doubts it greatly.

“The excess we get with protein foods is overloaded with renal function. Urinary and kidney cleansing functions are vulnerable, ”said Jūratė Dobrovolskienė, a nutritionist.

A nutritionist emphasizes that eating animal food alone only develops complex diseases in less than one year.

« Over the years, all manifestations are much faster than veganism, » said Dobrovolskiene.

Although only foreigners are sharing such images so far, the « Freedom to Choose » association, which formed in Lithuania, has publicly promoted to eat meat.

“You take a label like a vegan sausage, what is its composition? Our recently interviewed nutritionist said it is very rich in recycled products, very rich in food additives that should not contain, and the proteins we could only get from the same meat are very little and doubtful, ”explained Austė Korbutė, chairwoman of the Freedom Choosing Association.

And Eglė Kislovski, the founder of the vegetable food restaurant, decided many years ago to eat meat.

“In the beginning, it was just a fashion thing. The body was important to me and the like, and later came philosophy, ”said E. Kislovski, owner of Holigans plant food restaurant.

Without eating meat, he says he feels better physically and emotionally. Changing the lifestyle has also changed attitudes.

“Faith, what happens after the animal dies and that I contribute to it. What does that mean? ” – emphasized the owner of the Holigans plant restaurant.

The founder of the association, which proclaims the rights of omnivores, is angry with A. Korbutė that some of the non -organized meat is not given to their children.

“They lose the ability to naturally get B vitamins, various other substances. Among them – if we are talking about full -fledged proteins, which are crucial for children. The full -fledged amino acids are still in animal food, ”said A. Korbutė.

Meat -abandoned people are aware of the knowledge of how to enrich their nutrition and the nutrition of their children with the necessary substances.

“My child is a vegetarian from birth – three years old. I have been a vegetarian for many years, my other children are also vegetarians. Teens can be vegetarians, vegans, ”explained Kislovski.

The nutritionist has seen cases where children who do not get meat find themselves in hospitals, but if parents have enough knowledge, children do not have health problems.

But the professor emphasizes that a healthy lifestyle is not just about food.

« Brand new evidence, a new wave in modern medicine – that our health depends on the feeling of happiness, positivity and the joy of life, » said Albertas Skurvydas, a professor at Vilnius University.

The professor estimates that a healthy lifestyle consists of about 20 more components: stress reduction, at least seven hours of sleep, sauna and sports at least three times a week.
