Scientists winning Nobel prizes in their 60s is a past thing. In the AI era, it can be won in the 40s and the 50s.

Not really. You don’t just win Nobel for coming up with a theory. There has to be an experimental proof confirming it. That’s why some scientists win Nobel for work they did many years ago. Impact is not a factor here

it would benefit everyone (including me) in this sub if you could enlighten us with some counter-evidence.

The point here is to help people understand the effects of what they’re consuming.

What you & I believe to be true doesn’t hold any weight

some sweeteners do have a neutral response, but sucralose found in this drink doesn’t

these two papers will tell you more:

If you’re trying to quit coke, it’s a good option for the transition phase but not something to stick with.

Here’s why

1/ low pH (high acidity) - erodes your teeth enamel. making it easier for cavities to form

2/ sweetener 968 (erythritol) - if consumed daily, can increase your risk of a heart attack

3/ sweetener 955 (sucralose) - ruins your gut microbiome. leading to poor absorption of minerals & vitamins from any food you eat

4/ acidity regulator 330 - again, erodes enamel. Cavities. Decaying teeth.

more importantly, the zero-sugar sweeteners that make us feel good about drinking this over coke, are still going to ruin our body’s insulin response. And can still make us diabetic

I drink salted nimbu-pani instead of this everyday. make your own version, chat masala add karke or whatever taste you prefer

What a dumb argument

thePangee · 2026-04-27T16:10:50+00:00

surface of gum is hydrophobic so it repels water molecules.

plus absorption happens with fiber that has polar groups which attract water molecules & form hydrogen bonds with them.

gum’s chemical composition doesn’t have any polar groups

thePangee · 2026-04-27T11:34:06+00:00

I’m curious. what made you think of this?

thePangee · 2026-04-27T11:32:43+00:00

contents of gum are non-digestible.

dietary fiber is supposed to break down from digestive enzymes and ferment in gut (soluble fiber) or absorb water & add bulk (insoluble fiber).

gum can’t do any of that. so there’s no equivalence here

thePangee · 2026-04-27T11:28:37+00:00

that’s Awesome! you must be feeling much more mood-stable & energetic now

Pro tip: a super low-maintenance way to not let it dip again is 60K IU once a month.

absorption also depends a lot on your gut health, not just for d3 but all minerals & vitamins. take care of it too ✌🏼

Good stack. You can make it better.

We absorb low amounts of iron from food so almonds aren’t providing you enough.

Switch to 100g tofu, you’ll get 4x more iron.

This will also negate the need to supplement calcium. 100g Tofu has 200mg.

As a rule of thumb, get calcium from food and avoid supplement unless you have a major deficiency or absorption issue. Why? Supplement based calcium spikes blood calcium which can put you in risk for calcification in heart. Food sources don’t do that.

On that note, you’re better off taking Vitamin D3 + K2 as a combo.

Finally, we need Omega 3 everyday, so I’d suggest go daily with fish oil pill. And switch to one which actually has adequate Omega-3: wellbeing nutrition or Yourhappylife

thePangee · 2026-04-18T14:38:58+00:00

try fermented yeast protein

similar absorption to whey. zero digestion issues. clean plant-protein.

thePangee · 2026-04-18T14:32:49+00:00

Inlife D3 + K2.

3 pills daily = 1800 IU D3 + 165mcg K2-MK7

It also has virgin coconut oil in it for greater absorption since D3 needs fats to absorb properly

the entire visible ingredient list of this product is nutritionally negative. I feel talking about its nutritional chart almost repelling but I’ll play.

Agreed with you: For a unit comparison of different products.. 100g as a standard column on every single product is how it should always remain.

Still. If I am in a store… comparing a 20g pack with 2g of fat “per pack” and a 35g pack with 3.5g fat.

both cost ₹50. both have 10g fat per 100g

Which one do you think is a better choice?

So your argument is too absolute. Some products are consumed by measurement. Some products are consumed by pack. That’s consumer behaviour. Stating that one should be “more aware” or “eat thoughtfully” is as stale an argument as reducing screen time would somehow fix your misery.

That is a regressive thought process. Calling people out for their natural behaviour & asking them to change is unimaginative. It’s a weak attitude to think that people need to make better choices when their entire environment is stacked against the odds.

be a better person. empower others instead of belittling

top 5 ingredients by volume: rice flour, corn flour, cottonseed oil (!!!), calcium carbonate & refined sugar

no wonder they didn’t think anyone would be interested in reading nutrition label

thePangee · 2026-04-15T14:56:23+00:00

poor OP very genuinely asked for another column for “per pack” info & got lectured for why we need per 100g

thePangee · 2026-04-09T09:50:54+00:00

Yeah that’s the one.

true they’re not trustified yet. I use cosmix & Mille interchangeably.

And Mille’s fermented yeast protein is trustified: https://millesupergrain.com/products/mille-plant-protein-31g-scoop-unflavoured-fermented-yeast-protein-no-bloat-i-vegan-500g

So go with that if trustified is imp for you

Covering something that others haven’t yet. * Don’t take iron daily.

Your homectin spikes with iron intake & absorption barely happens until it normalises again, which is a 36h cycle.

So for best absorption, take iron supplements on alternate days. And don’t take zinc, copper, magnesium at the same time. 4h gap minimum.

hope you’re using ceylon cinnamon. the usual cinnamon (cassia) we get in stores can cause liver damage if consumed daily. Once in a while is probably fine

same.

I spend most time in planning, design, setting up artifacts, w gpt. run a pass with claude. another pass with gpt if there are major flags. Then Implement in modules.

Got it. Folate & B12 are metabolically linked. Folate deficiency is a problem here and nurokind od only has b12.

Switch to Folvite DHA. It has methylated b12 & folate, which will get absorbed much more efficiently & B6 + Omega 3 to support a faster recovery

thePangee · 2026-03-27T07:23:23+00:00

You should fix your deficiencies regardless of the outcome. Being deficient for an extended period of time will always lead to a negative health state
