@UraniumBlazer @Nonameuser678 56 grams of protein from all sources. There is protein in almost everything you eat, and it combines to reach that goal. You don't have to get all 56 grams from just lentils and beans
Also, it's rice or some other grain you want to pair with lentils to achieve a complete protein, not beans -- beans are legumes, and most legumes have a similar amino acid profile
@hansl @ElcaineVolta most people have access to beans, rice, and canned vegetables. If you can find nutritional yeast, then you're really in business
Vegan food is not some special, hard-to-access category of food, it's just food without animals. A lot of what you already eat is probably accidentally vegan: https://www.reddit.com/r/accidentallyvegan
@notacat speaking of those -- there is evidence that SARS-CoV-2 sticks around and causes chronic T cell activation, and there are only so many naive T cells the thymus can supply before it shrinks (it normally shrinks with age)
This implies that all covid infections, even those that don't produce obvious long covid at first, may be prematurely aging the immune system

@wintermute_oregon @const_void "I have friends who won’t leave their homes."
That's me. When I have to wear PPE in order to safely leave my home -- because everyone is huffing immunodysregulating, organ damaging plague at each other year-round -- it tends to make me not want to
@wabafee @silence7 the current pandemic never ended and SARS-CoV-2 doesn't appear to clear the body. We have no idea how that will end:
