I can live on bacon and chocolate! I’m good to go, doc!

I listen to Dr. Wallach too. I’ve learned a lot from him and his fill in hosts.

but I deny them— I do deny them my essence. I do deny them my precious bodily fluids.

lol. You do understand that younger Freepers will have no clue to the reference, right?

>> Thank you so much for your cogent argument.

My ROFLMAO is every bit as cogent and rigorous as your flimsy nonsense.

We've been eating grain for nearly 8000 years. You'd think we'd have noticed a problem before now.

Food fetishism is a first world thing.

Perlmutter thinks bacon, cheese, chocolate, and meat are just great. He says people need healthy saturated fats. He’s lot so much worried about carbs per se, because he’s fine with vegetables. But he warns seriously sugar and the grains that turn into sugar once they get into you. I’m with him. There is a lot of very disturbing data showing that he could well be right.

All I can say is, I’m a lot happier and healthier having bacon and eggs for breakfast, a hamburger (without bun) for lunch, and ham or chicken or pot roast or fish with vegetables for dinner, skipping the rice or potatoes.

Have to say as a southern girl it’s hard as anything to forego cornbread, pies, and cakes. The corn stuff worst of all! But it’s going to give me diabetes, and that would be zero fun.

Please let me know when the cookbook is ready, pretty please?

[mom4kittys]

I think you are exactly right,

Dave’s killer 21 grain bread). It must be 21 times as deadly as regular uni- grain bread

My folks brought some when they visited us. They get it at Costco up in Idaho.

Unfortunately, Dave has recently had a relapse from his turning-his-life-around story. Lawyers have blamed it on a "mental health issue."

Sterling Hayden in Strangelove movie?

I know this is not popular here on FR.

Not yet, perhaps, but its popularity is growing. More and more people are discovering the benefits of a wheat-free diet. I think we're only a couple years away from a societal epiphany.

How about going the rest of your life eating half of what you eat every day?

>>Even some fish, especially tilapia, is injected with hormones<<

Not if you grow them yourself like I do.

We've noticed some big problems, yes. If you don't think Alzheimer's and diabetes are big problems, you've never had to deal with them. They are tragic for individuals and disastrous for society.

Food fetishism is just another form of idolatry.

[Mr. Lucky]

...plus liquor and Lucky Strikes.

[Mr. Lucky]

No; it was far more cogent.

It’s all very troubling to me.

I am still waiting for the miniature magical pill that will provide all the nutrients we will need to survive, that I read about in the 50's.

Soylent Green is more likely to happen first.

Every study is made by someones money that usually has a dog in the fight, so we are likely to get somewhat tilted results.

There were radio adds after WW II that peddled expanding pills that were designed for the military to help the GI ignore hunger pains produced by an empty stomach. The brain was not fooled. Morons that suggest drinking water will reduce hunger by making you feel full, are full of it. You can starve to death with a full stomach.
