Vegan Gladiators: Not always, not by choice, and always for the wrong reasons.
Cassandra had an epiphany: there are people who believe that carnivorism was introduced to the human being by the Abrahamic religions. And that gladiators and Roman legionnaries were vegetarian, almost vegan. After being reassured by Amelia that she had tied Cassie-Fooky securely, absolutely preventing her to go into the warpath with her
usual style, she has sat and produced this video. Essentially, James Cameron and Terminator have producing a video promoting veganism as the one true path to be teh strongest, almost superhumanly strong, of human beings. Problem is they start explaining that gladiators were vegan. Cassandra exposes the fact that they were not feed meat because meat was expensive and they were walking dead. Also, the one side were a graveyard for gladiators has been found in all of the Roman world, in the city of Ephessus, is peculiar because even if it is on the coast the people there, in general, did not eat meat. And finally, because there is evidence that gladiators had some sort of energy bars prepared with goat milk, honey and walnuts, which is as vegan as anything. Anything non vegan, of course. OH, sorry, Cassandra wants me to mention also that the diet was meant to give them energy, enough protein through beans to have enough muscle, and make them unhealthily fat as shown in Roman reliefs. Way to go, choosing examples of vegan diet....

Sells the gladiators were vegetarian, but admits that part of the reason was to make them fatty for protection against cuts.

This video dwells on the issues of gladiators being mostly slaves, and their diet being focused on energy and providing fat so that superficial cuts did not affect muscles too easily.

Very good video on how the Game Changer documentary misleads the viewer by suggesting that the benefits of eatingyour veggies can only be obtained if you are vegan and pretending that the athletes they present as an example were not exceptionally gifted even genetically, and ignoring they where atop notch already when they were omnivores. He also mentions the fact that the long intestine/short intestine argument is fallacious.
