Being Vegan is good for you, but playing football, especially rb, is not. Its like a good decision cancelled out by a even worse bad one.

Counterpoint: no it's not good for you.

No it isn't.  I've never met a healthy vegan that didn't look like the walking dead.

 

Regarding Arian, he is probably making the right decision.  I hate to bring this up, but my niece and his sister are really good friends.  From what I understand, he's pretty much done with the pain and the degradation to his body.

I know plenty of vegans that looks perfectly healthy. It's just incredibly hard because they have to eat a lot more then they think they do to maintain that hence why you don't see it very often. It can be perfectly healthy but it requires a lot of dedication and a lot more eating than one would think. 

 

I don't see why anyone would think otherwise. He said as much and it's not like he's had an injury free career.

I am sure you guys are being facetious, but in case you really don't know, yes, being vegan is much better for you and lowers the rate of most Cancers significantly: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23169929

 

"When analyzing the association of specific vegetarian dietary patterns, vegan diets showed statistically significant protection for overall cancer incidence (HR, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.72-0.99) in both genders combined and for female-specific cancers (HR, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.47-0.92). Lacto-ovo-vegetarians appeared to be associated with decreased risk of cancers of the gastrointestinal system (HR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.60-0.92).

CONCLUSION:

Vegetarian diets seem to confer protection against cancer.

IMPACT:

Vegan diet seems to confer lower risk for overall and female-specific cancer than other dietary patterns. The lacto-ovo-vegetarian diets seem to confer protection from cancers of the gastrointestinal tract."

 

And one more:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24871675

 

"Vegetarian diets confer protection against cardiovascular diseases, cardiometabolic risk factors, some cancers and total mortality. Compared to lacto-ovo-vegetarian diets, vegan diets seem to offer additional protection for obesity, hypertension, type-2 diabetes, and cardiovascular mortality. Males experience greater health benefits than females."

Peyton must store oxygen in that forehead of his. No way I'd still be alive after all that choking.

Calcium for bone strength. Protein for maintaining muscle. Proven fact vegans wear out faster than a normal person. They have more joint pain and fatigue. Arian foster is a prime example. Always hurt with soft tissue injuries or a bone injury, that's just facts tho.

I wasn't being facetious when I brought it up. Being vegan may be a good thing for an every day, run of the mill, human being. I kust can't see how it could possibly be good for a professional athlete.

Veganism will sour your grapes. Fact.
