This is probably the single most important thing I learnt from taking a bachelors degree in Philosophy.

When people disagree, they could actually disagree, think that the other person don’t understand what they are saying or are discussing two different things.

Most recently I saw this because some nutritional expert had commented on need to eat food products with extra protein.

Most people who do a lot of weight training or anything similar that focus on getting a lot of protein (or water for that matter; I have heard the same arguments there) isn’t saying it is necessary for a healthy diet.

What they are saying is that it can have benefits to many different sides of your well being to eat more protein up to a point.

For me, eating a lot of protein keeps my body fat lower and my ADHD brain working better.

Is it necessary? No. But it can still have huge up sides, especially if you aren’t the most careful with your diet otherwise.

When there isn’t any downsides (within reasonable amounts) why not give it a shot? I fucking hate how we have to mix two different questions into one and present the other as wrong.
