if theres overconsumption, thats the problem
obesidy regardless of diet will negitively impact your health
Might be the type of protein, I don't know.
unless its the same type thats found in rice it wouldent make sense unless general overconsumption
What culture is carb exclusive?
i dont think any culture in human history has been carb exclusive
we developt from an omnivorous species and never lived in an envirnemnt without hunting or livestock as part of the culture
Oh, I was looking at your previous comment comparing Asia to other cultures.
even native americans ate meat on occasions
incas farmed hamsters
So what do you think has caused the high rates of diabetes there, when they had some of the lowest rates twenty years ago?
sugar
As in, they're eating more rice? Are you agreeing with that author?
are they eating more than they need? or eating more than they should relitive to other food? if the former is the case then they should be getting more obese. also to add they are probly living less active lifestyles as all developed countrys are doing. if its the latter than id expect to see other health problems associated with not getting enough neutriants in general which i dont think ive seen. its also possible that they arnt eating more rice than they use to
from what i hear they are getting more obese too so its probably more to do with that, it could be more obese from both eating more and exersizing less just like america
in which case its not what they are eating, its how much
You don't think the rise of fast food has anything to do with it?
fast food is only as bad as what is in it, if you make fast food but it has the same ingredients in the same proportions as something that is in the native diet before it or just something you could eat in your normal diet without any health problems then fast food is just food. but thats rarely the case, what tends to happen is fast food adds salt or sugar or offers the richest options already availbe in a native diet as their main fair
ive seen someone lose fat and eat healthy on a week of eating mcdonalds
however that is not consistent with what that kind of food tends to encourage even if they have guidelines they "want" you to follow on their website
ive actually tried to eat fastfood with a reasonible diet before, my main issue was balancing calorys and salt and i never even tried to make sure the carbs were low glysemic because that would have added a whole new factor. ultimately i found i could really only manage to find salads at chipotle that had lots of protine added to them and sour cream which would be truly balanced
oddly enough tortilla chips actually balanced it out a lot better than the food alone
fast food is a problem in the us and probably abroad, ive heard that in europe they actually require all fast food to have half the salt the usa providers have
salt sugar and fat, all things the body needs. which people immediately view as bad and think its a good idea to not touch them ever
i definatly agree that the human taste seeks those 3 out, and as we raise kids with more of those in their diet they will find it harder to adapt their taste to not craving those more than they already do (as you know children have the highest craving for the 3)
oh the body needs them, thats why it craves them. sugar maybe not so much, its more than sugar is a fast food literally not just figuratively and when humans needed to be very fast it was useful
no one should think that never having any of them (maybe sugar) is a good idea though
its more types of sugar than sugar itself
show my the person that got fat from eating too many blueberries
blueberries arnt pure sugar. the fiber in the skin of blueberries probably offsets the sugar a lot
if you mix sugar with hard to digest food it offsets it a bit im pretty sure because your literally burning sugar just to eat
(which is why you can actually become to emaciated to eat right before starving to death)
so give kids things high in fiber, got it. lmao
"here kids, have a candy bar and a fiber 1"
EAT YOUR GREENS
well honestly id argue for maybe less processed foods
good luck trying to win that
this was always my favorate bit from this show
I'm actually in the process of adjusting my diet. I'm not particularly fat, but I am gaining. I also snack way too much. Hardest part is that food is just too damn good.
That and caffeine withdrawal.
