rose the DIASS to

DIAAS

DIAAS recommends using pigs for the reference readings as their GI tract more closely matches humans then other animals.

As our understanding of plant-based nutrition has improved however, it has become increasingly apparent that emphasizing protein quality in developed nations is unproductive, influencing food selection with irrelevant metrics rather than more important dietary factors and truly prevalent nutritional shortcomings (i.e., fiber). Pervasive use of DIAAS and food selection based on this score is thus futile at best and harmful at worst.

As far as published opinions go, this is a wild one, the opinion cites other opinions for it’s basis, and recommends PDCAAS (rat based) because it’s more favorable to the conclusion the author wants. It’s a really strong, and totally unjustified statement, to say that fibre is a more important nutrient then protein. (people will die without protein, but they wont die without fibre)

not to mention the admitted conflicts

Conflicts of Interest/Competing Interests Joel C. Craddock and Emma F. Strutt are affiliated with Doctors for Nutrition, a not-for-profit registered charity that promotes healthy eating by advocating for adoption of whole food plant-based diets.

In reality, even if a person is addicted to burgers like a drug addict, they could easily buy plant-based burger patties that taste really similar to regular ones and make their own burgers.

Nobody is addicted to all beef patty. The addiction comes from the stuff around the hamburger patty, the sauces, the buns, the french fries. That drives carbohydrate spikes, driving insulin spikes, driving carbohydrate Lows, driving hunger. It is a pernicious addiction cycle, but the meat is not doing it it’s everything else around it.

Awareness!

Now if someone is coughing on the train and I hand them a brand new facemask they put it on without any comment, maybe a thank you.

Precovid… That wasn’t going to happen

I haven’t tested this myself, but I think the multiple users on Android would all have their own separate USB mass storage device areas. So if you switch to user b, attach the computer, allow on the phone the mounting. It’s user B’s files that get shown not user A’s

Using a sauna regularly can help with sweating, cardio can also help.

Depends on where your going and your threat model, but basically every time you cross a boarder your phone is fair game to be searched and compromised.

Even if you have nothing to hide and your phone gets searched, now you can’t trust it, something may have been tampered or installed, so you have to reset it (at a minimum).

Travel phones might optimize different features (like sharing vpn over hotspot) vs high security (gos), may have different radios, or just less of a pain to replace.

When you travel you may have to install apps that are outside your comfort zone (wechat, velo chat, taxi apps, etc)

When you have a dedicated blanked phone for travel, you become very deliberate about what data you take with you, which is good for corporations and thoughtful individuals.

3 - Since its not getting security updates, should never leave your network or talk to the cell network, its just a conceit to good enough convenience.

Yup! Risk reward balance, but its not on the cellular network, its only on a desk in a protected network, it isn’t a daily driver, and it stays off unless I need to use it. So I’m not wasting a good phone on a stock os, and I have access to the annoying banking apps when needed (rarely)

3 phones.

1. GOS for day to day
2. Travel phone for international trips
3. Super old stock phone for banking just sitting on my desk

I came here to post exactly this. Well done

If you have common interests and enjoy time together then there is no problem.

If you find yourself avoiding your partner and nothing in common, it light be a issue that you have to work hard on fixing.

• eggs in moderation

I didn’t realize people had bad egg habits, outside of

• exercising in moderation

Good point! Someone trying to get back into health can overdo it, i see that.

But not for a second did I want them to stop completely.

Interesting, why not?

“it’s not a problem so long as it’s making me money, so don’t quit completely, but rather stay alive long enough to keep dumping cash into it.”

Oh, like the company selling the thing that says enjoyed in moderation? That is a really good point

The person saying “in moderation” has the desire to stop, but they want the subject to be receptive to a baby step to “moderate” before even introducing the idea of stopping.

Totally agreed the subject usually has no desire to stop.

I’m not ready!

Good research!

Trouble is the time from a new metabolic model being defined, and proven in the literature is just the start then it takes 20-40 years for it to make it into the medical community as acceptable knowledge… Basically the doctors educated before the new publications have to retire out.

Expect at least two decades of “its CICO” before people acknowledge the hormonal impact of food

They didn’t have the formal language but their ideas are true. Humans don’t digest calories, we consume matter, we are not bomb calorimeters. Carbohydrates drive insulin which drives obesity.

Is it possible to never go to a fast food chain?

We have the physical addiction to glucose, but you have overcome that before

We have the habitual triggers, something in your life makes you think of your old addiction, those you have to find a way to get past, maybe the snacking

We have the situational triggers, seeing a place, going past a place, triggers old addictive cravings, this is where having a buddy you can call and talk it out can be helpful.

If you are willing to wear a CGM all the time, you can have a buddy monitoring it and get alerts if it goes outside of a predefined range (say 6.5) so your buddy can help you deal with the recovery

When you fall off the wagon before, you mentioned fast food, but what is different the month before falling off and the day you fall off?

Did you get a chance to read the carbohydrate insulin model of obesity paper?

i.e. the physics isn’t important if you turn OFF fat burning, it’s impossible to lose fat

Maybe a accountability buddy who can see your CGM data in real time can help?

Strategies I’ve found to get over cravings:

• Stuff my face with a safe food like cheese, eggs, butter (yes, really)
• Having my personal trainer get my CGM data
• Tell myself I can cheat but only if I eat a can of tuna and 100g of cheese first
• Set small multi-day goals, I’m just going to stay clean for 3 days in a row
• Removing all illegal food from my house
• Staying at a friends house where I don’t have the familiar triggers
• Only allowing myself to cheat if my blood glucose is <5.0 and I eat the cheese first.

What do you find helps you?
