And, I agree it would have been much better to have all those posts, but I really do not remember, my mistakes usually consist of clicking 'modify' instead of 'quote', so I may overwrite a post of another user, as it happened with you. But I really do not remember having deleted intentionally a post, let alone multiple posts.

To get back to the protein issue, in the 'war of religions' between vegans and carnivores, few protein is a concept supported by the vegans, many protein is supported by the carnivores or paleo followers.

We should support the concept of proprietarianism, as explained by Yogannda, that is, follow a proper diet with the proper amount of protein.

What is the proper amount? Not very much according to most credible sources. Not very little either.

But the concept, rather than protein in general, should be extended further to essential aminoacids, which are not synthesized by the body.

I think SRF still suggests a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet because a vegan diet may bring about deficiencies. Also, meditation and not diet is the focus of SRF. Too much thinking about diet, as it often happens with vegans, may be counterproductive to spiritual life.
