Low fat diets better than low carbo
- Considering 1g of carbs (also 1g of protein) has 4 kcal, and 1 g of fat has a whopping 9 kcal, yeah. Cut fat first.Continuity
- Didn't even need to watch the video to know cutting carbs is a stupid fucking idea.Continuity

"Plastics touching our food may be making us gain weight. Hormone-disrupting chemicals are entering our bodies. We eat 44lbs of plastic in our lifetimes."
More reasons to avoid processed foods, they often are packaged in plastic.
The problem these days is it's really hard to avoid plastic. Milk, yoghurt is mostly in plastic unless you pay a lot more.
Tin cans, that ware white inside - plastic lined.
Greaseproof paper... it's plastic coated.
And those takeaway coffee cups... not paper, again it's plastic coated and containing very hot liquid = not good at all.
I tried to do zero plastic grocery shopping back in 2019, shopping at markets and independent stores etc. But it was hard to completely avoid plastic.
- ALL tin cans, made from aluminium, steel or tin, have a plastic inner lining.Nairn
- there is micro plastic in the water by now.
but it's a good thing not to buy plastic food. less plastic in tin cans than in pet bottles.uan - https://www.theguard…uan

An evolutionary foraging instinct that relied on the sugar fructose may now be fueling the formation of Alzheimer’s disease
- Industrialised food processes, farming, pesticides etc, processed foods, veg oils, etc, = we are slowly poisoning ourselves.shapesalad

- it's a bit of a firmi paradox for longevity, that is if working out and running and eating a vegan/keto/mediterre... diet du jour and taking supplements and yo_niko
- yoga and meditation and suntanning your asshole all prolong your life, then where are all the old healthy people? everyone we see in their 90's and 100's look_niko
- like extras from the walking dead. I suppose that it's a newer trend and you didn't have access to the information or spare time in the 20s and 30's_niko

Metabolism does not slow down until 60

(There is an increase in variance because of higher incidence of cancer/diabetes/deteriorating health in general etc as you grow older, but a serious illness would tank your T levels at any age, its just that old people are obviously more prone to it. If you stay healthy into your old age, your T levels stay the same)Having kids has a bigger impact on T levels
