growing up i pretty much ate anything. however, after decreasing my meat (especially red meat) intake and increasing my vegetable intake for a prolonged period, my body started to change seemingly for the worse. i stopped having my period and lost my bowel movements. also i felt less energized. in the beginning, i felt better (went to the bathroom better and my metabolism seemed to speed up) but after a prolonged period of continuing this way, my body changed for the worse. i started incorporating more meat in my diet but now it doesn’t seem to digest as well as it used to. can not eating a lot of meat for a long time cause discomfort if you start eating it again?
i forgot to mention that when i decreased my meat intake, i started eating more soy protein like tofu, beans, and soy mild.
