I wouldn’t agree with the authors that this is “groundbreaking,” but identification of the high-carb, high-fat approach using primarily pro-inflammatory Omega-6 fatty acids as embedding in the skin seems new. It is good they also found pain issues resolved by reduction of Omega-6 and the addition of Omega-3 fatty acids.

[Shadow44]

Yet years ago they were demonizing saturated fat and telling people to use PUFA.

I’m on a high fat diet but very low carb. I pay no attention to the kind of fat I eat. My chronic pain has disappeared. I’m not the only one with these results.

[SkyDancer]

Ok, so no more lard sandwiches?

[Roman_War_Criminal]

More anti-meat propaganda.

[Pollard]

cured meats

They can have my sausage when they pry it from my cold, dead hands.

I’m SMH on this one. Well established for years. Wrote about this in the first draft of my book and it wasn’t ground breaking at all: Others had already made this connection.

The problem is “what to do about it” because simple ‘diets’ are ineffective across the board and is the reason why I refer to ‘diet’ as a “4-letter word/obscenity.”

And supplements are far from panacea.

I prefer the Southern high fat diet. Pass the fried chicken, please.

When there is nothing else to do, recycle, recycle, recycle. This has been hashed out before.

Western food bad, eastern food good.

[Macoozie]

Sounds like “Ma” Chalmers’ project soybean . . .?

It’s not the fat. It’s the wrong kind of fat. Seed oils. Eat animal fat from healthy animals and some clean olive and coconut oils. You can eat over 50% of your diet in healthy fats and stay slim. I do. I don’t eat sugars and very much carbs though.

[Persevero]

High fat bad.

High protein bad

High carb bad.

Well those are the three nutrients. Guess we are plum out of luck.

[Freedom_Is_Not_Free]

How about high-fructose corn syrup in everything that used to have plain sugar.

How about soy oil in everything.

How about MSG being used commonly today.

How about aspertame and sucralose.

Nah, they never cause chronic pain. It is just fat.

The medical community is so full of s#!^ today. My conspiracy theory is looking better and better, that the FDA has approved a huge variety of toxins to be used in our food to keep us sick so we have to go crawling to Big Medicine and Big Pharma for help.

Dirty rotten greedy b@$^@rds.

[Freedom_Is_Not_Free]

And not a word about the dangers of a high carbohydrate diet either.

B@$^@rds.

When I stopped eating anything with sugar, (including alcohol, ALL ALCOHOL) anything with high fat, anything processed and all dairy - extremely rare exceptions to all of the above. My chronic arthritis pain pretty much went away - and in only a couple weeks. All the nagging little pains went bye bye too. 7 hours of sleep every day and to the gym first thing in the morning for 1 hour of lifting weights, 2 miles at speed on a stationary bike and 2 miles BRISK walking on the treadmill. At 63 years old, I get looks from 30 somethings.

Young hotties love older men but you have to look like you have discipline in life and aren’t sedentary -

My gal pal now is a 36 year old former professional wrestler and gymnast. So life is better when you work hard at living right

What did the study say about chocolate fudge and wine? I use those to attract slinky women.

[Trillian]

Two articles already today bashing “western diets”. High fat and high protein is good.

[BobL]

Interesting way to try to take down Keto - instead of going after the low carb side, they go after the high fat side.

Nothing in the article mentions carbs, and so what they are saying may well be true - if you have a high fat / high carb diet, it probably will make a mess of your body.
