You forgot your blue checkmark with that statement
Holistic Medicine would be a good one and Astrology
How will anyone believe you
There ya go buddy
I think I'm actually going to cut that out because it doesn't help my point at all
I did give up all mass produced industrial foods at least, and soda
whatever, I got my daily slam on commies for the day
I've been trying really hard to cut out soda
I've gotten it down to a couple sodas a week rather than two a day
I usually just have one on Friday night magic
Just stop drinking it unless you go out for dinner, and then largely stop doing that
@Aperture Tech stuff like this got me to quit almost all sugar heavy stuff https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4728084/
After a couple weeks of not doing thing, you'll crave thing a lot less/won't crave it at all
basically just means that the more sugar you intake, the greater your resistance to it at the mitochondrial level and the greater your overall level of fatigue
essentially the more sugar you eat the more fatigued you will feel
@Misomania thanks
used to drink way to much coca cola myself, I really regret it
no idea what it did to my body overall
I'll have pop if I go out for dinner or on special occasions
But I try to keep my intake down
they also use phospate based carbonation methods, which in the body leaches out calcium (a lot from your teeth as well) which you excrete in the form of calcium phosphate
weakening bones as well
That's fine, I have probably an excess of calcium in my diet
Here's a question
What do yall think about marketing to kids
What about it?
Highly circumstantial whether it is good or bad
i think that parents should grow a spin and learn to parent.
marketing that is kid friendly is fine, marketing made specifically to benefit from being shown to kids though is predatory
I was reading an article on G-Fuel marketing and a quote was "we are marketing to kids but in the end it's on the parents so we dont care to change it"
it's a bit like marketing hard liquer sales to appeal to alcoholics, and showing the ads in AA meetings
Sorry what is the kid equivalent to that exactly?
showing ads of sugar rich cereals in a kids cartoon
or marketing vape pens to kids
Are kids addicted to sugar, able to buy sugar and trying to cure themselves of their addiction?
Nice
