GAINZZZ: The Legendary Journeyzzz
The Soybots at Vox say that you're eating too much protein and it's making you all toxic.
So there you go. This isn't about human health at all; veganism is anti-human-health. It's only pro-animal-health. And while I am a great big softie when it comes to animals -- human health comes first, soyboy beta cucks and anti-human propagandists.
Kenny Torrella is a staff writer for Vox's Future Perfect section, with a focus on animal welfare and the future of meat.
This story has been adapted from Meat/Less, Vox's newsletter series to help you easily incorporate more plant-based foods into your diet. For five weeks, you'll get challenges, recipes, and insights on how to make eating less meat work for you. Sign up here!
LOL, the federal dietary guidelines are wrong about everything and also themselves distorted by demands from the vegetarian lobby. You're supposed to eat 6-11 servings of grains per day, plus 4-6 servings of vegetables! Also, the very low figure they cite, 50 grams of protein per day, is a minimum RDA. There are no known health risks for eating more, even much more, protein.
Americans are oddly obsessed with protein, consuming around twice the daily amount recommended in the federal dietary guidelines.
People who aren't being bullied into appeasing Big Vegetable say that the figure is more like 0.8 g to 1g per pound of body weight, for people who aren't active and who aren't trying to gain muscle, and something like 1.2 grams per pound for more active people. Or more. Also, everyone processes protein less efficiently as they age so the older you are, the more you need.
The National Academies of Sciences' more nuanced guidelines break down suggested protein intake by body weight, recommending 0.36 grams of protein per pound of weight every day (pregnant and elderly people should consume more, along with highly active individuals). For the average American man, weighing just under 200 pounds, that's 72 grams. For the average woman, weighing just under 171 pounds, that's 61.5 grams. American men exceed that recommendation by 31 percent, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention survey data; women exceed it by about 12 percent.
Oh shut the fuck up, Kenny Longstockings. Let's get to the real meat of it, huh?
Public health authorities design these recommendations with plenty of slack, meaning they're higher than what most people actually need to ensure they don't become protein deficient. But despite exceeding the recommended intake, 60 percent of US adults are trying to get even more of it into their diets. Food companies have taken notice, adding protein to seemingly everything -- pasta, chips, ice cream, crackers, and more -- over the last decade. But this obsession could be making us sick: Excessive protein consumption, especially from cholesterol-rich animal-based foods, is correlated with increased risk of cancer and heart disease.
Excessive protein consumption is also wrecking the planet, with meat and dairy production accounting for upward of one-fifth of greenhouse gas emissions.And there you go. It's not about human health, it's about The Health of Our Fragile Ecosystem.
Actually, Florida Dad, I believe the guidance was 6 to 11 servings of grain per day. The food chart had nothing to do with health; it was all about appeasing the various agribusiness corporations of Big Food.
Florida Dad
@FloridadadD
I remember when the federal government told us to eat seven servings of bread a day.
@HarmfulOpinion According to the federal government, we should be eating ridiculous amount of grain. So I’ll just disregard what they have to say on the subjective nutrition.
Arturo Boremano (definitely NOT "Arthur Boreman")What a great time for this nonsense article to come out, because I'm pursuing a very high protein diet, and I feel better than I have in a while. I'm weight training and trying to get 1.2 or 1.5 grams of protein per pound. I'm drinking whey protein shakes every day, and every day I'm eating eggs and bacon and burgers. And honestly, I feel great. Not only am I gaining muscle, but my sinuses are mostly clear. (This might not be due to the extra protein per se but because, as I'm having a lot of meat and eggs, I'm reducing how much cheese and dairy I eat, and I know I'm lactose intolerant and I can guess that dairy causes inflammation of my mucous membranes, too. But I dunno... I am having whey protein powder and cassein.)
@ArthurBoreman "2x as much of it as the federal government advises" Me? Oh, nothing, I'm just remembering that time government dietary guidelines kicked off the obesity crisis in America.
Bonus: People get hungry and crave snacks when they're not getting enough nutrition, including, especially, protein. If you're getting a lot of protein, you have much less desire to eat crap. My sweet tooth has declined a lot. Anyway: Don't be a Kenny Torrella, guys. Don't ever be a Kenny Torrella.
I guess it's too late to try a "Dry January" but if you want to cut alcohol consumption:
Researchers from China studied 25 volunteers classed as obese over a period of 62 days, during which they took part in an intermittent energy restriction (IER) program -- a regime that involves careful control of calorie intake and fasting on some days. Not only did the participants in the study lose weight -- 7.6 kilograms (16.8 pounds) or 7.8 percent of their body weight on average -- there was also evidence of shifts in the activity of obesity-related regions of the brain, and in the make-up of gut bacteria. "Here we show that an IER diet changes the human brain-gut-microbiome axis," says health researcher Qiang Zeng from the Second Medical Center and National Clinical Research Center for Geriatric Diseases in China. "The observed changes in the gut microbiome and in the activity in addiction-related brain regions during and after weight loss are highly dynamic and coupled over time."
reducing liquor consumption is more do-able than abstaining altogether.
Every year thousands of people take part in the Dry January sobriety challenge to improve their health and regain control of their drinking. But if you can't commit to a full month of abstinence, take heart: You don't have to go cold turkey to improve your relationship with alcohol. A semi-dry ritual dubbed "Damp January" has become an annual event for people who want to cut back on alcohol without giving it up entirely.It's at times like this I wish I were Owen Wilson, so I could say Woww.
Studies show that even a modest reduction in drinking can lead to improvements in blood pressure, mental health and liver health. It can lower risk for cancer and heart disease. And you may even notice improvements in your sleep, energy levels and skin. There's not one best way to do the Damp January challenge. Here are some ways to cut back on alcohol. -Special occasion drinking: Avoid drinking for the month of January except for special occasions, like a wedding, birthday party or anniversary celebration. -Add more dry days to your month: Reduce the number of days you drink during January. -Consume fewer drinks in a setting: For a month, cut back on the amount you drink on each occasion. If you regularly have two or more glasses of wine with dinner, for instance, commit to just one drink per sitting. -A combination approach: Experts say it's best to reduce the number of days you drink and the amount that you drink on each occasion. You can set a goal to have a specific number of dry days each week and fewer servings on the days that you drink. You can drink only at special events or be sober on special occasions. Pick the strategy that works for you. The important thing to know is that any strategy you use to reduce how much and how often you drink will be beneficial, said Katie Witkiewitz, director of the Center on Alcohol, Substance Use And Addiction at the University of New Mexico and a former president of the Society of Addiction Psychology. "Any reduction in drinking is associated with improvements in health," she said. "As your drinking increases you have increased health risks, and as your drinking decreases you have decreased health risks." "Even if you didn't drink for one day that's still one day less of drinking," she added.

I was having lots of problems with my gut and just on a whim I cut out all dairy, no milk, cream, yogurt, etc. Dry cheeses like parmesan were OK. After about a week no more gut problems and blood sugar was better too.

All food production involves death; for vegans, it's a hidden genocide that they don't want to acknowledge so they can feel superior.

Yes. I like the farm walk at the gym.
I have a bad back with one herniated disk and one bulging disk. Do some farm walks between other sets.
As you walk, you are typically slightly out of balance and make micro-corrections.
I find it is a very gentle way to make my back feel better by doing a little bit of functional work at a high weight.
I do not hold 50s for 30". I do NOT have the grip strength for that.

50 grams RDA isn’t enough. Something much, much closer to 100 grams. Particularly as people age. With the wrong nutrient mix, people tend to try to fill up on carbohydrate. Carbs are what are making people obese and cause metabolic syndrome diabetic.
Carbs just cause blood sugar to roller coaster - leading to “hunger” - to eat more carbs! It is impossible to overemphasize this.

At the time, it was mostly based on UK data from their new NIH and the data collection it enabled. They found that the wartime deprivations were great for heart health. Butter, Pork, and meat were rationed and it did a world of good to the health of the Brits. Of course, calories and sugar were also in short supply but the boffins though it was all about cutting fat.
It was really a big experiment, and turns out cutting fat with unlimited sugar and calories is a really bad idea, but AT THE TIME, I think it was done for reasons of logic, and not "Big Sugar" or "Big Corn." (They are the culprits behind SNAP and a lot of foreign policy disasters though)

Sucrose is a 50-50 disaccharide comprising glucose and fructose joined by a glycosidic linkage that hydrolyzes in stomach acid into the constituent monosaccharides.
"High" fructose corn syrup has 55% fructose, 45% glucose.

Radius ~4,000 miles x 5,280 ft / mile x 12 in / ft
or about a quarter of a billion inches.
The average thickness of tissue spread over the surface of Earth is about an inch; so, in truth "we" are worried about saving about a 0.000,000,004th of the Earth.
- Perspective
P.S. Also bad math. I leave it to the reader to figure out why it is really about a 0.000,000,01th of the Earth by volume.

Of course the fact that all the old people were dying from the stress of being bombed had nothing to do with the drop in heart problems, I'm sure. Also the fact that men have much more heart disease, and were out in combat increasing the ratio of women in the at home population could also have been a factor.
I'm reminded of the left wing talking point that in 1945 the US had both the highest industrial taxes and the highest production rates in the world. Of course all that really proved is that taxes aren't quite as bad as having your factories bombed.

Protein and fat is required to live. There are no “essential carbohydrates”. The party was literally starving in the Bitterroot range, even though they were eating about 10 pounds of lean Elk or Venison a day.
Artificial fats really took off during World War II, as food is fuel - methods of hydrogenating vegetable oils.
Corn syrup - the “fructose” part is maybe half, and is only metabolized by the Liver. Unlike glucose, which can be utilized by almost every cell in the body.
I expect they will find non-alcoholic fatty liver syndrome is either caused by or exacerbated by corn syrup. Obese people need to avoid fake foods in addition to cutting calories.

High-fructose corn syrup is a liquid sweetener made from corn. When corn starch is broken down into individual molecules, it becomes corn syrup, which is 100% glucose, a simple sugar. Enzymes are added to convert some of this glucose into fructose.
High-fructose corn syrup isn’t all that different from sugar. The two most common forms contain either 42% or 55% fructose, as well as glucose and water. Regular sugar is 50% fructose and 50% glucose.

How about lifting something heavy, and move it across a distance, regularly, say once an hour.
I'm about to engage in this experiment because I lost the most weight ever, without changing my diet at all, when I was working a steakhouse, stacks of plates and boxes of potatoes seemed to me the most exercise, but also hot environment and constant moving back and forth.
Cinder blocks (assuming standard) weigh 40 pounds, now taking them from one end of the parking lot to the the other each hour.
Already done twice and it does leave me out of breath. Brought gloves to do without chafing, going to coninue, and increase to both-ways at such point I feel less lazy

coconut oil is good. basically, anything where, when you imagine the thing, you can imagine actual oil dripping out of it.

Sure, if you’re looking at it from a chemical standpoint.
Some people think it’s healthier - because it doesn’t lead to blood sugar spikes. In any event what we’re concerned with is what our bodies do with it, not test tubes.
Unlike glucose, fructose is only metabolized in the liver.

I don’t know why sugar made from Beets tastes different, maybe some people can tell the difference. My understanding is it is “cleaner”, for example the less expensive beet derived sugar will not work for making Cotton candy. Not really a factor for me, but I use cane sugar.
Sodas and candies taste a lot better when made with sugar. Corn syrup doesn’t satisfy the “full” feeling according to some research, leading people to keep drinking more and more, to get sated or satisfied.

Depending on your ailment, and who you go to, therapies can differ widely.
More often than not, “corrective” exercises are the first line of treatment.
Posted by: browndog stretches out at February 09, 2024 07:35 PM (TTAGa)
Typically, they give you the exercises and in the first 2-3 sessions, you do them aided with the Therapist and then they taper you off to doing it at home and down to just consulting.
Tell them you are not getting the benefit you were hoping for and meke them work through the excercise with you so you can make sure you are using proper form...or some shit. Make them earn their fee.

Sometimes the doctor recommends PT, and it works.
Sometimes, when it doesn't work, the diagnosis may have been wrong, and it will require surgery, etc.
My doctor usually says, "Let's try this first." meaning she knows it is not a perfect diagnosis.
If you have been diligent on your PT, maybe it is time to go back to the doctor?

I was having constant stomach pain and difficult bowel movements with mucus in my stool. After one month on the carnivore diet my stomach aches are limited to about half an hour before my bowel movements which are much less painful and no mucus.
I apologize for this anecdotal statement, but this nonsense has to stop. My most recent bloodwork showed a slight increase in cholesterol levels but no appreciable difference and my triglycerides were normal.
Having had several autoimmune issues including gout, I was concerned that a mostly red meat diet would exacerbate my conditions but I felt I had nothing to lose. I’m glad I took the risk. BTW, my biggest mistakes were not getting enough fat and salt
Currently, I’m doing keto and trying my best to avoid any processed foods especially carbs. Super Bowl Sunday will be my cheat day with pizza!

I broke an arm a few years ago and had surgery to put a plate in and by the time the cast came off I could hardly move my fingers so had physical therapy. They did do some physical stuff - warming, massage, some skin lotion and exercises to stretch the ligaments enough so I could grip stuff, touch my fingers to the palm, that sort. Got a free carpal tunnel operation while he was in there. My sessions were more frequent than that but even when they ended I still had some pain so I started playing a computer game regularly that required more work on the fingers and wrist than normal typing.

Might consider going back to the doctor.
Surprisingly, I have had some success on crap injuries like that, drinking lots of water.
The other thing is getting the muscle that is putting tension on that tendon to fully relax. Only then has it started to heal!
I am NOT a doctor, so these are NOT recommendations.
Things that have worked for me - taking some really strong opiate based pain pills that I have left over from a surgery. (I always tell my wife, so she can monitor me for "drunkeness".) Getting that muscle to fully relax for just two days, has started the healing on injuries that did not heal for months.
The other one is taking a very strong steroidal anti-inflammatory. I have done like three days of prednisone and also flipped the course of an injury.
If those sound exceedingly stupid to your control of your own health care, then consult your doctor.
Hot baths also work on some injuries. Sometimes the hot water increases inflammation. However, on some injuries, it will get your muscles to relax and get that tension off of the tendon. You might also experiment with that.
Salud!

hmm, is it the impact of the steps or the speed you are walking now. If you were doing 5 times that in Italy with less issues (or you would have slowed down). I've had problems with wobble in the knees that have caused strain, maybe a knee support would help.

Bacon and beef solves everything!
BTW - I am 54 and moved to fasting between 6 pm and noon the next day sans 1-2 beers and have lost 12 lbs in just over two months. Pretty easy to get used to.
Peace. Until the time to not "Be Left Alone"

43% of the corn crop is fed to animals that become your meat. About 2% is consumed by humans directly as food. Most of the rest is used for ethanol production.
Meat is soy-based and corn-based. If you’re eating meat, you’re taking in a lot more soy than a dozen vegans do.

Besides telling you to reduce protein, they thought you should go “low fat” (fat is not processed in your body except to send it to your bowel) and raise your carbohydrates (which is turned into fat when processed with insulin).

That type of CYA wording means they're not willing to take any responsibility for their so-called evidence of this claim.
