Shrimp with Bok Choy

The Mini Min­i­mal­ist demon­strates how to cook shrimp with fer­mented black beans and bok choy. The orig­i­nal inspi­ra­tion can be found here: video.on.nytimes.com

Humans are omnivores, so why do people think we can live without animal protein in our diets?

All you have to do is look at your own teeth to see that you are an omni­vore. We have designed to both tear flesh and grind plant matter.

Stud­ies have linked veg­an­ism to schiz­o­phre­nia. Humans require ani­mal pro­tein to com­plete pro­tein strands that are nec­es­sary for healthy cell growth and regen­er­a­tion. With­out the ani­mal pro­tein, how is it pos­si­ble to form these healthy pro­tein strands? Mus­cles and the brain are the first to suf­fer from no new for­ma­tion of pro­tein strands.

It is true that the aver­age Amer­i­can con­sumes far too much meat. I believe about 3 serv­ings of meat are what are con­sid­ered to be what a human requires to be healthy, not 3 serv­ings a day.
The schiz­o­phre­nia com­ment was not meant to say that all schiz­o­phre­nia is caused by veg­an­ism, but rather it can be a cause in an oth­er­wise healthy brain, oth­er­wise not prone to schiz­o­phre­nia.
I obtained my infor­ma­tion about the dif­fer­ences in pro­tein from Doc­tor of Biol­ogy who was a con­tem­po­rary of Dr. Crick, of Wat­son and Crick, the men who dis­cov­ered the dou­ble helix form of DNA. Prob­a­bly one of the most edu­cated men I have ever met. All pro­tein is not equal. In order to com­plete a full pro­tein strand, sev­eral types of pro­tein are nec­es­sary, 4 of which can­not be obtained by plants. These pro­teins can be obtained from ones own body for a short period of time (prob­a­bly between 1–5 years, depend­ing on the per­son) but after that, the nec­es­sary pro­tein strands can no longer be pro­duced, which then leads to problems.

I had a great aunt who was vegan for most of her life. Despite zero fam­ily his­tory of schiz­o­phre­nia, she was diag­nos­ted as a schiz­o­phrenic some­time around 35. Her doc­tors always believed it to be attrib­uted to her diet.

Side note: Humans are omni­vores despite their diet. There is a dis­tinc­tion between veg­e­tar­i­ans and her­bi­vores, ergo, no human is a car­ni­vore
Did I say that we had the teeth to seper­ate a deer’s spinal cord? No. I said that we have teeth to tear flesh. They’re called incisors. Our incisors are not devel­oped enough to be used like a lion’s.

Did any­one notice that I say that humans need much less meat than most con­sume? Also, I never men­tioned what type off ani­mal pro­tein was nec­es­sary, I could mean muskrat for all you know.

I am very well aware of tac­tics of the meat and dairy indus­try. I am advo­cate for ani­mal rights, which I believe include a healthy life (not in a cage or in a feed lot, but in the field) and a humane death. I am opposed to use of growth hor­mones and the mas­sive amounts of anti-biotics used in the indus­try. It’s cheap to assume that your oppo­nent is une­d­u­cated.
While the body may not tol­er­ate excess cho­les­terol, it also does not tol­er­ate excess vit­a­min C, which is a com­mon vit­a­min in fruits and veg­eta­bles. Too much vit­a­min C causes heart fail­ure. Too much of any­thing can kill you.

Eye makeup that will accentuate light green eyes?

They are mostly light green with a lit­tle blue and a ring of gold around the mid­dle. What do you sug­gest for me? Thanks.

Dairy and Gluten Free Cooking?

I am look­ing for a recipe for a dairy free and gluten free quiche that would have the same con­sis­tency as a reg­u­lar quiche. Is it pos­si­ble or am I dreaming?

What are the nutrition facts for 2 tablespoons of sugar?

I am doing a sci­ence project(making my own energy drink) and i need the nutri­tion facts for the drink. I can’t seem to find the nutri­tion facts for sugar though. Help?

What do you think of the raw food diet for dogs?

I feed my dog a mix of a lit­tle kib­ble with a raw food diet which con­sists of veni­son, chicken and egg. I was just won­der­ing what other peo­ple used for their dogs and what you thought about the diet. It works well with my dogs and I don’t have any weight prob­lems and they have great coats. They really love the raw over the kib­ble that is for sure. It is a lit­tle time con­sum­ing to get every­thing ready for them as I have 8 dogs but I think it is worth it in the long run.

I once consumed 8200 calories in one day, and by once I mean every day. Am I going to die soon?
