i went vegetarian a few months ago and ive been losing weight and muscle like crazy. i haven't figured out how to maintain it. everything tastes good though

It’s really tough. There’s a lot we’re still learning about the gut and nutrient absorption- but as long as we protect science, we can expect improvements.

The work with gene editing and growing meats and whatnot has been a long time coming - stay optimistic, stay curious! ❤️

Adjust your diet. Add pea or soy protein powder if you need to and make sure you're eating a lot of beans and tofu and tempeh. Most likely losing muscle is due to protein deficiency so that's your answer.

i am still downing multiple whey protein shakes with cows milk. i haven't even gone non-dairy yet

Oh well then keep doing that unless the article got to you and you want to eliminate dairy lol
