Strangely there is evidence to the opposite that athletes are healthier eating vegetarian or vegan diets. Men tend to have more frequent and larger erections during sleep after plant based food than meat. There was a documentary about this on Netflix iirc.

I watched that a while ago too. But it's quite one sided and I'm pretty sure it's not as conclusive as it makes out.
From working with two people who've tried a variety of faddy and non-faddy diets, and seeing the different experiences on the same diets, I'm a big believer in different strokes for different folks as it were.
@Stonehedge - I think it's so accute this time because I've been really struggling recently and having just had a few days of meat eating I feel like a new person.
I'm going to try a combination of B12, iron and upping my protein next week.

This is such an on trend phase, but what does it actually mean in reality? 4 tins of beans? A cup of frozen peas? 3 eggs?

Has anyone here who's reduced their meat intake noticed a difference when they do eat meat?
I ask because I largely eat vegetarian at home due to my OH, but have noticed that I have so much more energy and feel better when I eat meat, red meat in particular.
I'm wondering if my body just needs a lot more protein and/or I'm underestimating how much I'm getting from my veggie diet.
Anyone else had anything similar?
