Serious question, if I live off just that, I end up feeling like absolute garbage. That’s even with supplementing it with greens like spinach and some other veggies and vitamin supplements. What am I missing?
Like, macro-wise, I can replace meat and other things, but it doesn’t seem to hit the same?
Would you care to elaborate on what you feel like when you try living on plants? What do you tend to eat? How long does it take before you start feeling like shit?
Judging by your last comment about it “not hitting the same” my initial thought is that the issue might not even be nutritional, possibly more psychological/subjective.
Ok but for real tho. The average American severely underestimates how far you can get on rice, beans, lentils and chickpeas.

Don’t know what you’re missing because we don’t know everything you eat
Spinach gives iron so based off the information it’s not that
Maybe a shot of insulin, from the sounds of it.
If I could get us all to protest grocery store prices by eating nothing but staples whenever there is a random price increase I would die happy XD
Rice amd beans is the most important thing on my region’s diet. You just can’t live without eating it at least once.
YOU ARE A FOOL AND THE REBELLION DEMANDS YOU EAT LAGUMES!
Capitalism demands you eat legumes or go into debt.
The rebellion demands you stay alive how you need to and organize, which in the US means eating cheap proteins as you gotta.
