Haven't posted in a while, but I see that avatars are showing up and just wanted to say paleobird is smokin'.

lol, sorry, this video is such garbage.

The study that the woman is explaining is laughable. They replaced 25% of someone's calories with sugary drinks and their health deteriorated? This proves...

Great! You convinced your relative to stop taking medicine prescribed to her by a doctor before even discussing it with her doctor. GREAT JOB!!!!!

Just so you know that is sarcasm. Tell your...

The "make sure you are eating clean" community are mocked incessantly by people in the know. They are known as "cleantards." Eating clean has nothing to do with losing weight.

I used to love eating mushrooms and going for hikes. My mushrooms were the psychedelic kind though.

This paper reviews the research (including plenty of controlled studies) nicely

Omega-6 Fatty Acids and Risk for Cardiovascular Disease

Fat people aren't lazy and gluttonous just like alcoholics don't lack self control. There are reasons why some people can stop after a few drinks and others can't stop until they are far too drunk...

But who is actually only burning 1000 cals a day? An small elderly woman maybe.

You can't compare satiety by macronutrient alone. You can make generalizations like "fat is more filling than carbs" but a HUGE plate of vegetables is a lot more filling than a couple spoonfuls of...

Other factors might lead someone to overeat but they still MAKE the decision to eat. Maybe they are hungry, maybe they are bored, maybe they just walked by a cinnabun and couldn't resist...all of...

It does help some people (especially eliminating gluten). I am working at a camp right now with 10 autistic kids and two of them are gluten free. I don't know how much it has helped their...

Was he an aspie? I never knew that. People on the autistic spectrum can certainly have sensory issues and although I have never heard of people on the spectrum thinking sweat is gross, it certainly...

lol, a year and a half ago half of the people on this board wouldn't even eat vegetables, just meat and eggs. I think that line of thinking stopped when griff stopped posting to some extent.

"This doesn’t mean, however that the calorie theory is incorrect, nor does it mean that calories are NOT the primary predictor of weight maintenance. So – the asterisk here is that protein intake...

If your argument was right (pufas cause inflammation, inflammation causes heart attacks, thus pufas cause heart attacks) then why don't any observational studies support it? Why do pretty much all...

"However, superoxide dismutase significantly decreased (13%, P=0.018) after consumption of the low PUFA diet."

Recombinant superoxide dismutase reduces oxygen free radical concentrations in...

"the only logical conclusion that can be drawn is that adding PUFA decreases good cholesterol, which would explain the decrease in total cholesterol."

lol, what? You really think that the people...

Why don't you post studies showing that omega 6 produces inflammation. And if it does and if inflammation causes CHD why don't studies show that omega 6's cause CHD?

Can't agree more. Just because something is deemed healthy doesn't mean you HAVE to eat it.

Maybe the study doesn't exist because pufas don't cause CHD.

Where is your evidence for ANY of this? Please tell me where you are getting the idea that fish oil has "probably been rancid for weeks before you bought it." Don't you think companies selling the...

Don't listen to Choco about not taking fish oil pills. Worst nutritional advice I have ever heard. And if nuts are bad for you PLEASE show me a study that supports this.

You didn't even read that link you posted, did you? Or if you did, you completely misunderstood it. It says:

"Industrial canola oil for deep-fat frying contains 27% trans fat."

Then it links...

lol, sorry. I actually fast every day. My first meal is around 12:30 which is 4 or 5 hours after I wake up. The other day I had to go to the DMV and it took longer than I anticipated and I didn't...

I don't like the "eat when you are hungry" for a few reasons. Protein/micronutrient requirements are one of them. Another one is that hunger can be somewhat subjective and a lot of people have...
