Ah that would make sense. Animal agriculture uses a staggering amount of resources, it’s pretty problematic.

My first thought was it was some animal rights activist type thing.

Reply to comment by d_phase in Study demonstrates that how effectively an individual awakens in the hours following sleep is associated four independent factors: sleep quantity/quality the night before, physical activity the day prior, a breakfast rich in carbohydrate, and a lower blood glucose response following breakfast. by the_phet
I was trying to copy/paste some of the relevant parts for you on the macronutrient discussion but honestly there’s a LOT there and if you’re interested, it’s worth the read. If you scroll down to the Discussion portion of the paper, then scroll down a few more paragraphs, it goes into some detail about their mechanisms. Most notably I think it the distinction between glucose bs fructose, and also the overall macronutrient breakdown of the meal.
“First, unlike the OGTT, the High Carb breakfast a contained 23% proportion of other macronutrients, of which 16% was fat and 7% was protein. The ratio of carbohydrates-to-protein is known to modulate tryptophan availability in the brain and thus serotonin synthesis26. Specifically, pure carbohydrate (i.e., a ratio of 1:0, as seen in the OGTT) may drive the strongest sedative effect through a surge in serotonin synthesis and thus brain-available tryptophan associated with impaired alertness27. Our finding would therefore suggest that the combination of other macronutrients (e.g., protein, fat, fibre) paired with carbohydrate determines the true synergistic impact of the meal on subsequent alertness.”
Anyway, the discussion is really interesting tbh and worth the read.

Interesting! I frequently have foggy headed mess and I seem to get GI issues flaring up every time I go on a run. I’ve always thought the foggy head was from my medication, but I am vegan so I eat a lot of soy products. So this whole thing just has me wondering…
I ask about tempeh because it’s fermented soy, which many people report does not cause any of the intolerance reactions of regular soy. It would be interesting to compare the two.

Can I ask what your symptoms are? Is tempeh an issue as well for you?

So you think it’s just more of a random vandalism? I guess if it were me trying to make a statement, I think I’d spray paint something across it as well. Either way, what a stupid thing to do.
