Re Easter alternatives*Rebecca*

[Guest guest]

wow, that sounds difficult. my sympathies. I guess your protein comes from

beans & legumes? I wonder if it's possible to make a bean mash loaf? (vs.

meatloaf?) I am so grateful I don't have to work with limited diet options. I

don't have a lot of ideas but you're in my thoughts & if I run across something

interesting, I'll send it along...

Of course it is!

In fact, I believe the files have some examples.

 

You can also make loaves from grains and nuts.

 

Seitan and quorn (if you are not vegan, Rebecca)

are other non-soy me*t alternatives.

Rebecca,

 

If you need substitutes for those things, there are a lot of things in the

files. Usuallythe first question someone asks me when they find out I am a

vegetarian is " How do you get your protein? " The thing is we really do not need

that much protein.All foods that I can think of have protein, although not

allhave a " complete " protein. There is a book that tells about this. I think

it is by John Robbins or someone recommended " the China Syndrome " a week or so

ago. Many long living people eat little protein. In fact, cancer rates tend to

be higher with increased ammounts of protein.

 

Preparing for a family that really misses meat then this group has many

alternatives in the files.

I think you mean " The China Study. "

I just read " The CHina Study " after someone here posted about it.

Excellent book, worth the read, and I'll probably go buy it (I had

borrowed it from the library).

 

One the studies in the book involved rats engineered to have liver

cancer. When fed 20% protein (a common amount, especially among

Americans), they all got cancer... but when fed only about 5% protein

- none of them got cancer. 100% difference. It's correlative with

human populations as well - looked at communities in CHina, India,

Japan... also compared them with folks who had moved here, and picked

up our incidence of disease.

 

Anyway, the book is a wealth of information, and really makes me limit

my dairy intake. Casein was particularly problematic.
