Клипчето акцентира точно върху изкуственото разнообразие на храни, които ни заливат в супермаркетите... Хидрогенирани мазнини, царевични нишестета, палмови масла, суха кръв, хормони, антибиотик... Другия проблем е, за да се храниш що годе прилично си трябва и повече пари, макар и да не вярвам сляпо на всичко що е Био, то има значение дали ще ядеш домашно квасено кисело мляко за 2 лв кофичката или за 70 стотинки от супера. разбира се, цената не е 100% определяща.
По темата за вископланинските натоварвания. Разказа за moridinbg е безспорно интересен, но се натъкнах и на това в интернет: http://www.veganviews.org.uk/vv85/vv85mount.html
Ето един кратък откъс:
We three vegans climbed to the top of North America and felt fantastic the entire way easily acclimatising to the altitude and reaching the summit with plenty of energy and in great spirits. Despite arguments by some in the mountaineering community, it is quite possible - and we believe much easier and healthier - to engage in serious high altitude mountaineering on a vegan diet. How do we know? Not only does mainstream research on high altitude physiology support this premise, but we have experienced it ourselves. Most of the mainstream research concludes that the human body performs best at high altitude on a high carbohydrate, moderate fat, low protein diet. This would a vegetarian diet. Unfortunately, many serious climbers clog their bodies and diminish their energy stores eating large amounts of cheese, butter, beef, chicken, tuna and other animal products on expeditions, in the belief that because they crave these foods, which are needed to keep them warm and strong.
Our own observations and comparisons to non-vegan climbers on Denali convinced us that a strictly vegan diet puts far less stress on the body by not introducing foods - such as cheese or meat - that require excessive effort to digest. With less stress, the body can thus acclimatise to high altitude more easily.
