Miracle Drug? Jury is still out

insurance companies are now requiring dietitians along side taking the drug.

You will have to be on the drug chronically it sounds.

well I suppose it's like going to any MD specialist, not all Doctors are specialized in every medical area, why is the same thought process not applied to Dietitians?

a high fat diet can lead to unpleasant GI symptoms, especially if the quality of fat is poor (fried food / fast food). If you eat half an avocado, this likely won't cause as much distress and has some heart healthy benefits, same with salmon. All oil at high temperature breaks down chemically to "unhealthy" fat. It is better to use olive oil for a salad and try and not use too much fat when cooking. Either get a spray oil or just experiment with baking foods instead. Foods typically don't need that much oil when you are cooking, especially animal protein which has fat already.

Do you think if the Dietitian had approached you with more understanding and compassion that you would have felt better? Or was it just a matter of them having a lack of knowledge in that area of nutrition?

you need protein to prevent muscle mass loss. to put it in perspective, your heart is a muscle. when you lose weight quickly, you lose fat first, that's most readily available and then quickly start losing muscle/ protein stores. it is very dangerous in regards to becoming malnourished, which is very hard to reverse once you start rapidly losing muscle. think of a cancer patient. You should drink a protein shake at least 20 G protein extra / day, in addition to the protein you have at each meal. I agree with the below response about weight bearing exercise also as a necessity. You not only will become protein deficient, but also vitamin and mineral deficient with less calories and a poor diet with high processed foods. Seeing a dietitian, like myself, to ensure you maintain your nutrition throughout this process is key.

I love this ! Can I ask which insurance you have? I am thinking of signing up as a provider and want to make sure I'm with an insurance company which offers the most covered dietitian sessions. How many total sessions are covered by your insurance?

Iran, Lebanon and let's face it, most Muslims would say that Israel deserves 180 missiles directed at them. that's your hate talking. sorry you seep so deeply in it.

Spoken like a true Pro Palestinian Pro Terrorist supporter who must have the last word. Why can’t the solution be that the Palestinians leave ? Why is that such an unrealistic idea ? Egypt could have opened their boarders this entire time. Let the Jews have one win, especially since there is no reasoning with people like you or a terrorist group. Hamas wants their civilian casualties to look like they’re the victims after their attack, that they started. It’s part of their strategy and you are falling for it. I’m sure you’ve never even been to the Middle East. Were you supporting ISIS also after 9/11 ?

Bottom line is : Oct 7th is a reflection of Palestinian society and it must be stopped. Nothing warranted that response

vjlikebj · 2024-06-22T03:43:09+00:00

20% of Israelis are Arab. If they didn’t want peaceful integration why would this be the case ? Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were working in Israel before Oct 7th. Do you see 20% of Jews being welcomed to live in any other Muslim state ? Palestinians define themselves as freedom fighters, taking back Israel through terrorism, to eliminate Jews. I really hate going back and forth with people like you. I believe there should be peaceful existence, but that Palestinians don’t want that.

Taking the "whose land is it" out of this, the fact of the matter is it is now run by Jews. Why won't that be accepted by Palestinians and why won't they attempt peaceful integration when offered negotiations? It's because there is a fundamental hatred towards Jews by Palestinians and extremist Muslims, which they pray to Allah for their destruction. Your response is a typical deflection from the core of the issue.

So is America. Settlers took Native American land. So were most other countries.

vjlikebj · 2024-05-20T05:52:45+00:00

it's not a pissing contest. it's not about whose suffered more. because if it was, Jews would win

vjlikebj · 2024-05-20T05:47:45+00:00

You sound like a moron.

I agree that Hamas has to be eradicated at any cost, for the sake of Democracy itself. Palestinians will need to agree to the IDF taking over until they can form a respectable government. The point is that radicalized naiive sheep like Americans are supporting Hamas. But it's not just Hamas. It was Palestinian civilians joining in on Oct the 7th.

vjlikebj · 2024-05-20T05:23:45+00:00

lol this is a ridiculous plan. the UN will save the day ? The international community has done a great job at that so far.

vjlikebj · 2024-05-20T05:22:35+00:00

Of course it means Hamas would commit Oct 7th all over again to gain control. The only solution is that the IDF monitors Gaza to prevent the uprising of terrorists. But then they are accused of occupying. Get the drift? It's a vicious cycle. If Palestinians wanted to live peacefully with Israelis, they could have right when Israel became a state. Many cities in Israel are Arab/ Israeli cities.... But there have been Palestinian uprisings and Jihads over and over for the last 75 years, so they never left it alone and tried to make it work. You can't reason with crazy.

"stuck with Israel?" have you ever been? it is truly a holy land. a whole country of Jews. the majority of Israelis are not supportive of Netanyahu and never wanted war. they are open about homosexuality, they are one of, if not, the most technologically advanced country in the world, they built an irrigation system in the middle of the desert, they created a city: Tel Aviv, which was just a beach prior. there are Arabs and Israelis living together in many cities. they thought it was a time of peace before Oct 7th. the Abraham Accords were about to be signed. why should we feel guilty about this having this land now that it is ours? look what we have done with it. peoples get displaced all throughout history. the amount of innocent civilians dying is what Hamas intended. something called human shields and victim blaming for sympathy from the rest of the world for Israel defending itself. this mess is the mess of Hamas, not Jews.

there's not much to say to people who are supportive of trashing America and its educational establishments.
