Yeah. Blue Diamond gives more than the other brand I saw here. A lot more vitamin E, and more servings of almond milk too, regardless that both are in cartons that look about the same size. About 5 servings per carton compared to the other brand that's 4. hehe. A lot more concentrated. I don't have a fridge, though one was presented in images.
The owner has given me some stuff, and said a fridge too, but idek about that. Haha. Anyways, I drink the whole carton. I make it a part of my budget to get a whole carton a day, for that vitamin E, and many other benefits of almonds, and many benefits of cocoa powder! With this brand, you only need one cup for your full vitamin E intake! A lot of sources may say like 15mg or so of vitamin E, but the UK (where I've never been to, but I got a lot of ancestry in Ireland and such shown in my brother's DNA results) says 4mg is fine for a male adult. Hehehe. Thing is, a lot of daily intake claims in America (where I'm from, but I live abroad) are exaggerated. You only need at least 60% of what the bigger amounts of recommendations say. I do just fine.
If I happen to get more than 60% great, but I generally look at what I need for the day, like the most important stuff (not like every last mineral and such my body could get). Vitamin E, B12, and plenty of other stuff may take months or so to replenish. Don't wait, because these things can severely affect you. You gotta remember, we have science, thankfully, and it's only since the early 1900s that we've known vitamins exist. Science is often said to be younger than 1k years, since the 16th century, but that's modern science. Reports date scientific understandings going back tens of thousands of years, with the earliest known records coming out of Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia in around 3000 to 1200 BCE.
Knowing this information, it sets you up for more appreciation in modern times, and paves a healthier way of life. In a lot of ways people are unhealthier, due to reliance on doctors. However, doctors aren't nutritionists, and they say as many 90% or so of doctors in America get the bare minimum amount for nutritional education. There is even footage of the two-party puppet circus bully dictatorshittttt American government rejecting the idea that doctors should get some more hours of education. Their argument against it? That it's too much to ask for with doctors, who spend enough time in school.
Too bad school should do a better job at nutrition. Is the healthcare system really there to heal, or is it there to Band-aid symptoms so that your symptoms turn into very profiting conditions? I say the latter of the two. They profit hard, so do insurance companies when people rely on them. I got my mom, overweight, heading to hospitals on the weekly or so, for many years now. I haven't always been vegan, but have been active throughout my life, despite being a 90s kid when video games and anime were hitting new higher levels.

Just gotta keep in mind that you need a certain amount of calories, but excess will in fact make you gain weight. Keto diet is retarded as fuck. Studies show keto makes you lose about 8% muscle and you lose water weight generally in your first month. Plenty of people lose hair, become weaker, etc. You could consume a huge carb source, potatoes, and have enough for 2k calories a day, consuming nothing else, hitting 400 or so carbs a day (a keto person's worst nightmare...lollololol..hehe), and you'd still lose weight! I know from personal experience.

Here a fairly recent
on keto, vegan, etc., by an MD in America that I love to refer to for how bad keto is, and so forth.
In the original video that they link to, which originates from a medical school, you'll find plenty written in the caption (it's not that good in grammar and in paragraphing, but whatever...lol).
Here is the caption for their video (verbatim):
The position of the Medical Executive Committee of SUNY Downstate Medical Center, as recommended by the Committee and Plant-based Health and Nutrition, is as follows:
Plant-based nutrition – emphasizing consumption of vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, legumes, and fruits – can prevent, treat, or reverse certain chronic diseases in adults based on current best research evidence.
The chronic diseases studied most include obesity, high body mass index, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, coronary artery disease, and hyperlipidemia. Plant-based diets, however, are not a cure-all and should not be substituted for existing medication or therapy unless supervised by a physician.
Statements Based on Research Evidence
Individuals who report eating more plants have lower body mass index (BMI) and lower blood levels of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, fasting glucose, C reactive protein, and inflammatory profiles than do individuals who report eating fewer plants in their diet. Strong evidence based on over 700,000 subjects in population and cohort studies.
Plant-based diets can reverse existing coronary artery disease (evidenced by angiography) and can reduce body weight, oral diabetic medication needs, and blood levels of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, fasting glucose, c reactive protein (CRP), and hemoglobin A1c. Moderate evidence based on randomized trials and cohort studies that are mostly short-term (weeks to months) and have varying rates of adherence to plant-based diets over time.
Individuals who report eating more plants are less likely to develop hypertension, ischemic heart disease, type 2 diabetes, colon cancer, gastrointestinal cancer, and cancer overall in subsequent decades. Moderate evidence based on population and cohort studies that lose some subjects over time and have diverse methods and outcomes (e.g., are heterogeneous).
Individuals who report eating more plants are less likely to die from cardiovascular disease, ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, some cancers (pancreatic, lymphatic, hematopoietic), and from all-cause mortality. Moderate evidence based on population and cohort studies that lose some subjects over time and have diverse methods and outcomes.
Individuals who eat exclusively plant-based diets have lower rates of obesity, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease than those who eat plant-based diets with some animal products. Weak evidence based on population and comparative studies with minorities of participants on exclusively plant-based diets and with variations in how these diets are defined.
Additional Considerations
The evidence mostly supports increased consumption of plants as beneficial, in contrast to simply removing animal products from the diet. Within the category of plant-based diets there is some evidence that eating only plants is best, with growing evidence that a whole food plant-based diet has more benefits than one that contains refined plant foods.
Many different plant-based diets have been used in research studies, making it difficult to generalize results and raising concerns in some cases (e.g., highly restrictive low-fat diets) about the ability of individuals to adhere to these diets for long periods of time.
Some of the observed health benefits of plant-based diets may be due to other lifestyle interventions that often accompany these diets, such as smoking cessation, limited alcohol consumption, stress reduction, and a greater emphasis on exercise and fitness.
We support the American Medical Association’s resolution from 2017 to “call on US hospitals to improve the health of patients, staff, and visitors by providing a variety of healthful food, including plant-based meals and meals that are low in fat, sodium, and added sugars”

Back to the thread! haha ;p
