Bullshit article. One of my lifting partners is a 240lb Indian kid who plays D2 ball. He can count on two hands how many times he's eaten meat in his life, and his mother would smack the shit out of him if she knew he had eaten it even that much. Serious fucking Hindu's they do not play around with the meat thing. He won't even eat fish if he can help it, which I still sometimes do. Kid isn't done growing either he's only 19. So I don't buy this shit for a second. My yoga instructor has also raised her kids "strictly" vegan, no fish no nothing. They're like 8 and 10 and those little fuckers come in, stand on their head then go walking around on their hands like the rest of us walk on our feet. The athleticism and flexibility of those kids is freakish already. I hear all the time people say we "need" meat....well we don't. People just like to eat meat, and that's fine, people can do what they want. But let's stfu finally about the whole we'll melt into the ground like a witch in a rainstorm if we don't get some animal proteins in us. It's horseshit.
