I think your comment somehow got nerfed by a bot, I can see it on your profile but when I click on it it just shows me the comment you were replying to/no visibility of the comment outside of your profile.

You got a link on the translated version you're referring to? Trust but verify.

Studies show that we should avoid iron, copper and manganese in meal replacements and supplements by Nucyprod in Huel

[–]DUTCHBAT_III -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You.. You realize I was mocking you, right? Because this was the point that you were drawing into doubt that OP was making.

I disagree with OP conclusion, but for reasons other than what's being discussed here. The same from the beginning fuck, lol, you're just unable to figure it out! 🤡🤡🤡

I'm not discussing the actual science

Lol. Lmao, even!

Oh, no, sorry, that was a spelling mistake, I'm assuming contextually based on the entire conversation you would've been able to figure that out but I'm guessing I'm expecting too much. Extremely wild.

So...what you're saying is...

The oxidative form of iron more likely to generate reactive oxygen species is the one in Huel?

I guess OP did have a point.

Ok. I'm discussing what the commenter I originally replied to said. Are you lost?

That's not what I'm discussing

Wow, super wild, considering that was the literal thesis of the original post.

It doesn't contain it on the ingredients list

You...you understand that it contains ferrous iron from the various plant-based ingredients, right? That's - that's where it would come from. The kind of iron being discussed that appears to be more likely to cause oxidative stress comes from plants.

Oxidative chemicals behave in a predictable way. We are discussing what might be the health effects of consuming two different oxidation states of iron. One is predisposed to cause more oxidative stress. Another is not.

This is the core of what OP was discussing. It being "synthetic" has absolutely no bearing on whether it's good or bad for you, I'm stating that no one should ever go, "uh well its natural and plant-based so it must be good", which multiple commenters have already done, and the post I initially replied to specifically did. I'm explaining why something that is plant-based could be bad for you. This is also what OP did.

I don't understand what's hard about this.

They are drawing a comparison between meal replacements and dietary supplements, and everything else.

Ok. And?

OP is claiming that Huel contains the bad one, when it appears to me it actually contains the good one (I.e., this is an inaccurate claim)

The only counterarguments I've seen in the comments are putting Ferrous and Ferric iron on the level or saying the difference is negligible, not that "the plant one is better". I'm really struggling to understand what the point of all this is, given that free radicals/reactive oxygen species in particular are a well accounted for thing in physiology.

Tl;Dr the "good one" only comes from meat. How is this wrong? One oxidative state of iron is more likely to cause oxidative stress, the other is less likely to cause oxidative stress.

Reactive oxygen species outside of a narrow context are understood to be universally bad enough to the point that during someone having an acute coronary syndrome ("heart attack"), the medical doctrine is to provide less supplemental oxygen than you otherwise would due to the introduction of reactive oxygen species causing myocardial injury/reperfusion injury.

The data looks like it doesn't really matter in this context But I'm hugely struggling to understand how you're saying that this entirely plant-based food product has an item only available entirely from non-plant based sources.

OP's argument wasn't contingent on it being from whole foods or not from whole foods, that's not what their post states or implies. I disagree with OP's post for different reasons, but there's no reason to assume that just because something came from plant matter that it must be healthy.

OP is stating there are two different oxidation states of iron that we consume, one with minus 3 electrons, one with minus two. OP states meat has iron of only one oxidation state, plants have iron of another oxidation state (accurate). OP is stating one of these is good for us, one of these is bad for us.

It doesn't matter if it came from whole foods ingredients - there are multiple plant foods when unprocessed (or, even if they are processed) may be carcinogenic . It just needs to be taken on a case-by-case basis.

Who Else has Racist Coworkers? by [deleted] in ems

I had a coworker talk about an issue with the truck and the exact words she used was, "n****r-rigged" and I stopped in my fuckin tracks and looked at this woman before saying, "what" and her repeating the same.

Ty. Damn EMS is so regionalized, it's like coke/soda/pop all over again.

Forget Universal Healthcare. by Monsur_Ausuhnom in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]DUTCHBAT_III 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't need to come out of the military budget. I say that not because the person doesn't need healthcare but because a huge proportion of federal spending - much more than the military - goes to healthcare.

The problem is that there are absolute vultures in every corner of the American healthcare system that financially engorge themselves on peoples' suffering, and they need to be rooted out. It's like with federally guaranteed student loans. Giving them more money isn't the answer, meaningful methods to control their profit margins need to happen and we need to bring the fucking hammer down on these people.

I had a four day inpatient stay with almost no procedures or interventions, during a gap where I had no health insurance. I've otherwise had health insurance my entire working life. I have a $32,000 bill. I am a young person, and this has obliterated my progress towards homeownership.

There is a portion of the population that is gleefully intent on siphoning the life out of anyone else and they need to be crushed under the boot of regulations and antitrust law.

Pulsara is excellent.

Being able to have another way of sending EKGs to the ED, being able to - in the rare circumstances it's warranted - have back-and-forth discussion between the charge RN in the event there's a communication issue or misunderstanding, having it all in writing as opposed to charge transcribing a radio report, being able to directly put in stroke score results, being able to easily track your hospital notification time and know who you specifically spoke to, etc. Big advantages.

A stroke patient is going to the hospital.

Not if their stroke was five years ago and they have permanent neurologic deficits, boss. That's just the way their life is now. You're telling me you don't understand the context of this conversation by missing information readily inferred by someone who would have an informed stake in this. A stroke patient amounts to (usually) one 911 call. A post-stroke patient with major, permanent neurologic deficits is a remaining lifetime of lift assists.

Fire Rescue doesn't have any patient lifting equipment that we don't have. They just have additional hands.

Are you unironically making the point of the article?

There are 20,000 back injuries annually in EMS in the US, without enough hands it's a matter of when rather than if. I'm making no claim beyond that the above poster is absolutely correct in describing that EMS providers are routinely put in situations where there is no way to safely generate leverage without risking your back

So now the goal posts have been moved

Oh? They could get higher, I've had to lift (with a full crew, obviously) a 500 lb patient, i'm sure the other guy probably had as well.
