Healthy diet *not any!*

[Milo]

Well mom mostly adds a shitload of salt and fries the meat, I eat that 1-2-3 times a week, sometimes there's also potatoes. I also eat a lot of (especially lately) sausage, which isn't cooked at all, just a mix of whatever they throw in the grinder. So according to you, I should have a lot of B6/12, which I don't. I also have other deficiencies too, by the way, as I eat vegetables or fruit once in 2-4 months, nuts once half a year or rarer, rice and stuff like that once every 4-8 months, but if rice then white, I have never tasted brown rice.

How do you know though? Did you go to a doctor and they told you or do you have symptoms of it like chronic low energy and a lack of mental clarity and diagnosed yourself?

 

[intpz]

I diagnosed myself. Either I've a few really nasty illnesses from somewhere and I'm alive a few years too long, the mold affects me a lot more than it should or I have vitamin deficiencies. I go with the vitamins, since that makes the most sense.

I even have a few A4 papers filled with data on the symptoms and self-observation in regards to them, hidden from anyone's eyes.

That's somewhat misleading as the type of carbohydrate matters. This is a long video and he might lose you (the general "you," not you specifically, Proletar) in some of the chemistry depending on what your academic background is, but it's worth watching.

@skip: Wow. I'm in love with a man... In a totally non-gay way, more of a fan. (if it rhymes, it's true)


Now this is a dude that can separate between true and false, and beyond that, disregard authority. Although I agree with him 95%, there are things we disagree on. For instance, fiber and 'packaging' of unhealthy things, and glucose to be the energy of life.

Yes, fructose is bad for (the general) you. Really bad in fact. But that doesn't mean that glucose is good. In fact, glucose triggers insulin, and insulin stores fat, and stored fat is not used fat = weight gain. No carbs (but fat) means that the fat can be distributed, and no fat means that there is no fat to store when the insulin is at work.


The reason that the japanese diet also works, besides low carb, is because they don't mix a high fat diet with the high carb diet. That's what they do with sumo-wrestlers.


But yeah, this guy is close to the truth. And yes, I sort of did fall asleep during the biochemistry-thingie. Also, is it wrong of me to dip potato-chips in peanut-butter watching this?

@A22 skip's ain't full of shit, I'm living proof of it. Are you an ESxJ coach at high school by any chance?

haha nope

I usually avoid sports and physical activity. Only occasionally I'm in the mood for doing something physical.

I say that because I read it somewhere and it seems to be true from what I see. It might be wrong, but it sure is at least just as important as a healthy diet.

@A22 you should read the rest of the posts man.

Healthy diet & exercise

Someone said, "Whenever I feel the urge to exercise, I lie down until the feeling goes away." to which I add: "Whenever you feel the urge not to exercise, get up and exercise until all the juices get flowing." Slowly work up to this and you will carry a new high for the REST of the day.

Too much discussion over healthy diets - mine's already healthy.

Yeah, maybe tomorrow.

Not for yourself, but for your arguments.

 

[A22]

Oh, I wasn't arguing, just commenting, but I'll take a look at it when I have some time.

 

[TriflinThomas]

Here's what I do: I eat 1 or 2 high-calorie meals a day (depending on how much energy I've expended) and I snack on fruits (because I LOVE fruit). So, pretty much get your calories for the day in, and then snack on healthy/semi-healthy foods.

Blood test should show you if you have vitamin deficiency, imho it's much easier then diagnosing yourself.

In regards to B12 I've read somewhere ( when I'll find this link I will post it) that food containing B12 has to be consumed in smaller amounts, but frequently for the better absorption of vitamin. This is because there is a limit of how much of B12 an organism can absorb in one go. That's one of the reasons why eating once a week even one month's supply of the vitamin would be less efficient then having just a minute amount of it in food few times a day. Once again if you are not hungry it won't do you much good eating a kilo of sausages in regards to B12, your body won't take in the same percentage it would absorb if your're hungry or after some fasting.
I don't trust supplements or taking vitamins on the side, because of the controversy on the subject and just my own common sense, but I won't delve into it any further.
*Edit* Probably you know , but anyway, to absorb B12 properly organism has to get decent amounts of vitamin D. Just a footnote.

I don't eat meat, but I eat fish. Quite a lot of it is of oily variety like herring or mackerel, and wild salmon occasionally. Sometimes I consume quite a lot of it, so I became a little concerned about mercury levels. There is a mercury calculator in fish to give one an idea and keep within limits. If anyone's interested here's the link

Anyway to counteract mercury intake I eat quite a lot of coriander, it almost became my salad (leaves) substitute. It supposedly removes heavy metals and toxins from the body and the brain.

Water, I distill it, and use it for drinking and general cooking purposes.

There is cooking utensils problem as well, like metal and what not leakage into food during the cooking process.
One older gentleman started me in this direction, his organism reacting sensitively to iron, stainless steel, not to mention those non stick surfaces. The only surface he claims he can tolerate so far for cooking is the stone one. I agree with him about the food, that all the poison is targeted at young and strong and therefore unsuspecting people.

I would if my mom wouldn't work in the system and it wouldn't cost money to do it. If/when I move to another country, It's one of the first things I'm gonna do.

I'm always hungry, I don't get much food to eat, if I do get, it's not enough to eat, not even close to what's a "good dinner" portrayed in the movies.

Unfortunately, stone is good at absorbing radioactivity. At least as far as I know, and I've read about this about 10 years ago, so I can be wrong.

Stone is not an option for me , but old gentleman swears by it. I will have to look into it now. *Sigh*.
I use stainless steel, looking also into those ceramic nontoxic pans, and hard anodized aluminium, but don't feel like trusting them.

When I was growing up I was quite poor eater, struggled with basic portions and just would leave it in the middle, but I was healthy, my mother used to worry about my eating capacity or rather the lack of it. Tested my blood regularly, never found out anything though to cause any alarm. I am of medium constitution and height, somewhere in the middle, but my friend who was constantly starving grew tall and much bigger. His main preoccupation in life was 'what's on the menu', looked hungry even after three course meal, and I know he relieved family pet dog of his dinner number of times. To be fair, he did it without knowing it was dog's super he's munching. Well, I suppose, he couldn't notice the difference, not a fussy type.
