EDIT: should point out, in case it's still not clear, I have no issue with vegans, I have never met a person who does have an issue with vegans, I have never seen organised protests outside factories making vegan products, I have never called, nor seen any other omnivore call, a vegan a murderer. I have never started a thread extolling the virtues of a meat based diet. I hope this is all clear now.
I'm not locked in here with you, you are locked in here with me.

Did you know that USA no longer recommends a low fat diet? Our current recommend diet - yep, that same NHS Eat Well Diet - was taken from Ancel Keyes research in the 1950s and 60s in America, now regarded as deeply flawed and skewed towards his aim proving his own diet heart hypothesis was correct, and that saturated fat raising cholesterol was to blame. It wasn't, and the data just is not there.
However, this country has been slow to respond. Parliament is currently hearing evidence on nutrition with a view to changing the guidelines. Tom Watson is heavily (no pun intended) involved in this.
Forget omnivore / vegan / vegetarian / paleo diets. Look at which foods are the richest source of the essential nutrients and minerals we need to survive and flourish. That's easy to look up.
If you then chose to only eat a select few of them due to moral issues that's quite understandable, but you'll probably need to supplement for the things you cannot get naturally.
Based on my experiences [observing her interactions with others] I can assure you that meat eaters give just as good as they get when it comes to sanctimony.
Meat eaters are phenomenally good at starting a "conversation" about the ethics of food and then pretending that it was foisted on them :-)
As for the movie.. I'll wait to see what Shredded Sports Science says about it.

Here’s an example of what he eats.
It looks like a chore, I think it’s possibly easier to stay lean as a vegan. So in power sports that require a certain weight classification to be maintained, it’s no bad thing.
Come to that, when did we become so obsessed with food to the point where every other programme on telly is a cookery show and you hear of 'celebrity' chefs being compared to rock or movie stars.
I couldn't care less what people eat, I just don't want to listen to them whining on about it.
I was a vegan for 7 or 8 years and I wasn't any healthier or unhealthier than when I was a carnivore.
No-one lives forever.
These days I eat a balanced diet and avoid processed crap (which I think is probably the biggest threat to our health).
I'm not the healthiest person in the world but neither am I on my last legs
Just mix it up.
I enjoy vegetarian options, it just makes a change and adds variety.
Being vegan has gone beyond a moral choice and has become fashionable, with people choosing take offence if you are not one of them.
For what it's worth I believe it is far more important to choose ethically sourced products.
