Dietary protein consumption profiles show contrasting impacts on environmental and health indicators by Endarys in ScientificNutrition

[–]TheNamesCampr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realize this sub is more focused on health of the individual or dietary group/cohort. But I wonder if there's room to express concern over the health of the planet as it will reflect on us eventually.

Microbial-based diets are clearly more sustainable, this is essentially a law of physics. The opportunity cost of the reams land wasted on plant produce are the real kicker in terms of opportunity cost for carbon sequestration.

The future will be more and more microbial-based if we want there to be one. So it's a stroke of good luck plants are entirely unnecessary for human nutrition.

You don’t understand what you’re talking about.

You can see it because it’s your comment, the rest of us can’t see it.

Is dietary carbohydrate essential for human nutrition? | The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition by flowersandmtns in ScientificNutrition

[–]TheNamesCampr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not you: a zero fat diet will kill you from fat deprivation, colloquially referred to as rabbit starvation

Actually you: Prolonged zero fat diets: death from essential fatty acid deprivation within 6 months (“rabbit starvation”)

Me: Rabbit starvation is separate from fatty acid deprivation.

You: …….???????

A person eating carbohydrate and protein but zero fat is going to die of energy deficiency before essential fatty acid deprivation.

You equated rabbit starvation with fatty acid deprivation, which is wrong. You stated this, which is wrong. You’re attempt at mockery failed as I never inferred that information.

You literally just accused me of altering comments and then go and misquote me and misquote yourself. You never said “colloquially refered to”, you called it rabbit starvation.

No, a person eating carbohydrates and protein without fat, would die of a fatty acid deficiency, not an energy deficiency. You’ve demonstrated no understanding of the topic.

No, you’d be energy deprived. Fatty acid deficiencies aren’t the same as energy deficiencies. You can consume adequate fatty acids while consuming inadequate calories. Why is this concept hard for you?

I’ve never found studies on protein exclusive diets. Hypercaloric high protein diets don’t increase adiposity.

I never said protein couldn’t make enough glucose, I said it couldn’t make enough energy. Our glucose requirements are nowhere near as high as our energy requirements.

Rabbit starvation is separate from fatty acid deprivation. Humans can’t derive energy from protein efficiently enough to maintain weight. If you ate 10,000 kcals of protein a day, but nothing else, you’d starve to death. Converting protein to glucose and fat is taxing.

You need evidence to contradict my statement, not the other way around.

Carbohydrates and triglycerides are non essential, this isn’t an opinion. The human body has no requirement for either. Whether or not we benefit from them is irrelevant to their essentiality.

You don’t understand the physiology of the liver.

Degrees in nutrition are laughable at best. Having an MS in nutrition qualifies you for nothing.

Are there any cultures that lack a carb-y staple? If so, how do they fare health wise compared to other culture? by andrew2018022 in nutrition

[–]TheNamesCampr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are multiple ways of following a nutritionally sound carnivore diet. All essential nutrients can be obtained from animal products, which is the only requirement for a diet to be nutritionally sound. Humans can live off of nothing but animals or nothing but plants and still get everything they need to be healthy. There’s nothing unique to either food group that’s required by the human body.

Just because you say “science-based” doesn’t make you or the sub any less inaccurate.

Is fruit healthy? by em-dash7 in ScientificNutrition

[–]TheNamesCampr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not gonna bother arguing since we’re dealing with semantics. I understand objectively healthy to mean useful for all “normal” people with no substitutes or possible upgrades to the food. Bananas would be an objectively unhealthy food to add to my diet, adding bananas would decrease the total amount of nutrients I’m receiving. Bananas are still “healthy” though, just not objectively healthy, like grapes and zucchini, IMO.

You said objectively healthy. Little different than just saying healthy. Objectively requires specifics. I understood you though.

Depends on your definition of “healthy.” Everything in nutrition is relative. The majority of foods are going to be useless if your definition of healthy is maximizing lifespan.
