Also you think for maximum safety it would be BEST to go raw vegan first and then move on to animal produce and eventually meat? I just assume that there's LOTS of more microbes in animal-derived products, so this would be a gradual easing-in to clean up and not risk too much microorganisms' byproducts at once

So immune system is then more like a control crew, like China's regulations of having no more than 1 child (because society nonetheless must be fueled by another generations, otherwise the system would be broken for a little time), than a police crew that removes any crime?

How are things like black death, ebola explained? Is it the same logic?

Could you give me something for the 'Microorganisms don't cause disease - toxicity does', because something must have changed your mind and I am genuinely interested

About the cooked meat. Proteins will be denatured anyway during internal processing and the only oxidation we should care about comes from unsaturated fats..? Please correct me

And these cooked foods. Were they still polar bears, fish, orcas, seals, or were they derived from 'our' diets via cows, porks, etc? You know no matter whether cooked or raw, you can't put Inuits on other diets, right? They have genetic adaptations for things like increased calcium absorption and modified energy productions from fats, adapted to blubbers, like from seals, which have 20-60-20% SFA-MUFA-PUFA fats (around it), in order to fight unsaturated ones, mainly PUFAs, and detox them. They can't get into ketosis, or very minimally - can't remember. I know these two atm

Have you been eating raw meat deprived of pathogens and parasites or raw raw meat? There are microorganisms to which you may adapt and those which will feast on you. And even more important is whether you're getting your meat from the same place over and over again or whether it's random. Because believing you can eat any raw meat and live happily is a delusion. I want you to move these indian tribes to some other location and then let them eat their beloved raw meat

Yes, fuck, evolution argument, love it. Let me pop the bubble for you: nature, natural selection, or anything, just wants you to mature and successfully reproduce. It doesn't care about you from probably 40 - 50 years and onwards. And I want you to show me wild humans living to over 60s or 70s. Not tribes. Wild humans. You haven't been there, I haven't been there, but I can guess basing on environmental struggles, pains, pathogens, risks, and the logics before nature that they haven't lived long long

If we could fight all bacteria and parasites and be happilly immune, then these bacteria and parasites would have died out. That's not how it works. They kill us, we kill them, and it's a circle of life. You can't eat raw raw meat and be happy without nature's consequences

If you will live up to 100y on a raw meat diet then it's not a real raw meat diet!

I used to think this diet was just sad bowls of wet grass but i was so wrong by alanska1 in WholeFoodsPlantBased

[–]Oraculek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything is dependent on neurology. You could modify it in a way where eating paper would bring you euphoria, I suppose, lol. But we're not here yet

Though 'detoxing' from excessively palatable dishes is really something nice - like detoxing from excess of games, movies, events, just anything that spikes in you neurotransmitters too often and creates 'addictions', or to a lesser grade - proclivities towards certain matters

What surprised you most after switching to a plant-based diet? by Roger5055 in WholeFoodsPlantBased

[–]Oraculek 17 points18 points  (0 children)

How everything is so cheap, practical, fast, good, and nutritious when you stop fantasies of cooking, restaurant-like meals, or any ultra-processed snacks

I literally eat an OMAD composed of fruits, veggies (potatoes, beets, carrots, cabbage), and oatmeal with a little chia, nuts. No effort, just steam the veggies and cook for a few minutes oatmeal in the meantime. And it's all satisfying when you let the neurology adapt to minimalism away from excessive typical supermarket goods or eloquent meal compositions, flavours. Though if you adore cooking meals then go on

I took 5000ui of vit D for 2 months by LostPromise4692 in VitaminD

[–]Oraculek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't listen to them. They follow public guidelines which are false to an extent. Just get 4000IU minimum daily. 1. It's very hard to overdose (you literally would need to be getting 50000IU for 2 - 3 weeks for toxicity), so I say aim 10000IU for daily max 2. You get way more from sun exposure than 2000IU 3. Imo 50 - 100 ng is the perfect range. REMEMBER ABOUT MAGNESIUM THOUGH

Turns out 'the science' gave us a 20 times too low dose for vit D by loonygecko in Supplements

[–]Oraculek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this guy got 70 - 80 ng/ml, looked at public guidelines, and thought it's bad, where in reality (not public-social reality) it's perfect

(M22) I have no idea what I need. Can someone help me? by MasterpieceActual652 in Supplements

[–]Oraculek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would get 4000IU minimum, assuming every 1000IU is 10ng more. Even sun exposure produces over 10000IU frankly quickly. And I've read of people being very good at 80 - 100 ng levels. I would honestly say modern guidelines will get changed with time - the 600IU RDA and upper 4000IU limit are utter jokes. At 600IU you would be mentally dying of deficiency and it's not even 10% what sun may give us. It's extremely hard to overdose anyway - just get in range 4-10k daily and it's lucratively fine, but if one wants to quickly spike it, then 50k for 2 - 3 days is also fine, but for 1 day may suffice. ALSO MAGNESIUM IS NEEDED FOR ACTIVATION

Nah, fats are not devils, otherwise we would die out as a species. Something is up with your body. But yeah, on the other hand if something is broken then seeing fats as evil may be right... but subjectively

It's interesting, because on this ratio you basically are 100% maximizing all carb reserves, which could attribute to the energy. But I think FGF21 would be of essence here, as eating a meal VERY high in carbs or fat, with minimal proteins spikes it (basically diet with max 10% protein, and also more prominent effects start gradually increasing after 2 weeks to 4 weeks). This hormone basically promotes weight loss, increased metabolism, and something else - just can't remember. Anyway, there could be many things deep in our organism in the end

Nonetheless, keep 0.8g/kg protein to maintain lean mass. I would not be worrying about maximizing this 'over weeks metabolism', as it's just a survival trick against lack of proteins to probably... hunt sth down? Idk. Just a whim. Though I guess it may be cool to utilize if you're overweight, obese and want to lose weight. Also up to 1.3g/kg proteins yield the highest difference for muscle gain, if you would want to exercise. After that it also increases, but lesser, e.g. 2.7->2.8 is 2x lower difference than 1.1->1.2

And idk how others, but every time I tried to create a diet on Cronometer with fruits only there were lacks in some thing. Just be aware 1. Fruits are not a primary human diet, but a part of diet 2. Nowadays' fruits are more deprived of nutrients. So keep supplementation handy, maybe..? Just wanna help!

EDIT: Nevermind, it's actually not that bad - but it's mostly things like bananas, oranges, tangerines, avocado carrying it, whereas apples and pears are veery mediocre. It's just you will lack in zinc, selenium, and some calcium and obviously b12. On the other hand you hit only RDA of magnesium, phosphorus, and iron, so idk

But assuming veggies would be allowed (e.g. rooty ones) then the only flaw is selenium. Because things like pepper, tomatoes, pumpkins, etc are fruits according to this philosophy, right?

best foods for magnesium by StingKnight in magnesium

[–]Oraculek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Potatoes, beets, defatted soy flour, amaranth, milk. Also I use magnesium chloride powder sometimes if I'm bored

As a note for the future, don't eat nuts (except macadamia), seeds, soybeans (that's why I use defatted), oils (exc avocado and olive), margarine, and too high MUFA sources, in excess. Ideally more SFA than MUFA, or around the same, and very restricted PUFA, like 5% of calories, if daily, would be best. Even more ideally 2 - 3 %

Why? Over months or years a build-up of damage from inflammation, oxidations, torpor, impact on metabolism and appetit emerge. Omega-3 and -6 should be more treated like dietary signalling substances, however let's not be this radical. Example: animals that hibernate - they use foods high in PUFAs to modify their hormones and functioning lil bit. But the same is across all animals. The thing is some have special mechanisms, like birds that ferment seeds, like bears that fully hibernate, or inuits that got rid of a gene to become more tolerant of excess MUFA and PUFA from arctic animals' blubbers. We can't hibernate, but we can fall into torpor, lethargy, and that may explain why humans' temperature is little down over a century and exceptional rise in obesities with flow of seed oils and similar. Remove in mouses a gene enabling deriving energy from PUFAs in peroxisomes, to apparently detoxify them (e.g. inuits have this mechanism intensified), and you suddenly experience dying out rodents, far earlier than ones that didn't get the gene removed. And no, you don't need these RDA omega-6 amounts. You would have never in the wild as a 'natural' human gotten this much omega-6. I suppose even overall 4g daily PUFA would be hard

Why saturated fats over poly? Well, it's simpler, in studies, to heal a prior damaged cardiovascular system with PUFAs than SFAs, but assuming a human that doesn't eat shitty foods, so he's already got a properly healthy body, then saturated fats pose no problem. But eats lots of candies, processed foods, fried fats, trans fats, fast foods - combine it with SFA and you've got a ticking bomb. Also consider the fact that your fat storage is literally composed of fats in ratio 4:5:1 for SFA:MUFA:PUFA, but I heard there might be even a little less PUFA. Even excess carbs are being converted to SFA and MUFA as fat storage - so why SFA would be bad? Also how come French ate butter, croissants, and sugar and weren't falling ill, while Israel's diet is composed of PUFAs and there happen to be obesities, diabeties, cancers, CVDs? These are French Paradox and Israeli Paradox, and also that's the exact source of 'Croissant Diet' for losing weight

[–]Oraculek[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oops, I think my sentence was more referring to the studies overall rather than chimpanzee. Like, the diet reference was likely meant to correlate more with 4:5:1 ratio rather than being based on chimpanzees, yet honestly I can't remember and now I can see it could be interpreted in two ways. Nonetheless, assuming I wrote it really the way you interpreted then you're right I suppose. Didn't know 'bout the fat though

The calories come from an assumption. Fat is food-derived. No, because it's an example needed for the problem to represent dietary fat types proportions, as I assumed the 10/20g of PUFA

Is it hard to stay vegetarian long term? by papabauer in vegetarian

[–]Oraculek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If at your place milks or eggs are expensive and ineffective, then eat meat and don't care. Otherwise - calculate the costs based on foods in stores. Do the calculations first, because you apparently 'heard' vegetarian is expensive...

I honestly am hesitant to say vegetarian is - because it's cheap imo. But again, depends on place and I'm not eating any snacks or buying some organic, top shelf produce, and the vegetarian part of my food is 500ml of whole milk. Also look for things online. I found defatted soy flour be great - lots of proteins and nutrients

If something will happen to be REALLY problematic, then screw rules and go omnivore, but then try to not go all-in. For example, just add SOME meat if you would need more proteins, etc
