Due to some recent experiences with store bought meat and some mild cases of food poisoning, I've written meat off for the immediate future. Since having done that, I've discovered that my craving for protein has increased a fair amount. I have been supplementing with Brown Rice Protein powder and soy milk, combining brown rice with various forms of beans and legumes but I hear conflicting stories about the con's of living on a vegetarian diet - especially with the consumption of soy based foods.
I came across this book called
The Thrive Diet by Brendan Brazier, a top level endurance athlete who also is a vegetarian. I wondered if any of the more informed members regarding this topic might be able to share their experiences one way or the other.
