The regular unflavored plain Dannon yogurt has no added sugar just like always. I go through about a tub of it a week.
For fun I looked over the first page of responses and tried to categorize them:
true believers - 12
humorous - 12
common sense - 7
political - 6
helpful - 4
skeptical - 4
smart ass - 4
Your true believers are people who believe that refined sugar is the devil, or Atkins was a god.
Humorous are people who just trying to be funny.
Common sense are people like you who just state the facts and believe in moderation, etc.
Helpful are people who talk about what worked for them but are not really trying to push it is what is the answer for everyone.
Smart ass are just nasty responses that are not funny and do not contribute anything worthwhile to the discussion.
Then there was the Seinfeld “Non-Fat Yogurt” episode.
Now that’s a funny line! I think I’ll use it.
I like Seinfeld. He’s a funny f##k.
Oh, yeah—those fruit fly and worm studies prove a lot about human longevity.
People (including myself) are very passionate about their diets. I try not to lecture but to state what has worked for me and let others decide for themselves. Also, I recognize that what works for me won’t necessary work for everybody else. But I do feel compassion for those who are obese and unhealthy because I’ve been there. I try to help those folks out. I guess if you are happy, healthy and full of energy, no matter what your diet is, never mind what I have to say and stick with it! If not, I have some suggestions that might help.
I reduced carbs and virtually eliminated sugar (while increasing protein and beneficial fats like avacados) and dropped 55 in 8 months. Also acid reflux that plagued me for years vanished. I think this study is BS.
Yep.. We just have to pay attention to how food makes us feel. Sounds like you eat the same foods I do.. If a meal has too much sugar or fat I’m immediately tired. Happy Health!
Another faulty “study”.
Eating too much of any 1 thing can lead to trouble. This “study” doesn’t add anything to the body of information that we already have
Thats not really correct. Fat protein and carb calories are not equal. Carbs (sugar) are the worse calories. They burn faster and spike your blood sugar. Fat is the best one as they burn longer. The optimal diet is a high fat low no carb diet.
Problem with a lot of high-fat processed foods, is they tend to have a lot of sodium.
Probably why eating a bag of pork rinds, isn’t the best idea.
No but AOC and Cory Booker are
If you aren’t missing animal protein you’re fantastic. For me, my hunger is not satisfied even if my stomach is full, without either animal protein or tofu. Allergic to nuts, I do eat seeds but in a meal quantity it doesn’t work, beans don’t work. Eggs and meat work best, cheese is so so. Tofu is fine and I make it every week and keep it around in gochugang korean style for quick snacks. I need 3 servings of protein a day.
I call BS..
When man began to farm, they grew shorter and started having all sorts of health issues compared to when they were hunter gatherers... claiming high carbs is healthier is flat out ludicrous.
Yes it allows more easy energy for the brain but wreaks all kinds of havoc on the rest of the body
Worked for my wife and I as well.
At 5’9” I weighed in at 210. Started Keto combined with regular exercise and consistently lost 5 lbs a week.
Now at 170. I never thought I would see that number on the scale again.
The only kinda downside was, we had to do some clothes shopping, but it sure felt real good to get into some Jean’s I haven’t been able to wear in almost 15 years.
guy, you have to get rid of those acid washeds...
And also fat and happy until.
