Re:
The theory is sound. We don't get enough fat. But the execution can trip you up. Mass produced meat is only "slightly" better than a carbohydrate rich diet. And here's why...
*~Mass produced beef, meat, poultry, and fish, are, by and large, injected with hormones. They are also fed cheap quality food to "beef" them up. And the old adage...you are what you eat, holds true for what you consume. It's merely LIFE eating LIFE. So if you eat things that consume crap, you consume the crap they consume, and so on. Mass produced animals and fish are suspect to a host of chemicals, pesticides, hormones, herbicides, diseases, and unnatural processes that normal food or wild food wouldn't be. That alone only makes the diet THAT much better.
Why do you think it's so cheap now to buy cattle or fish for consumption?
Carbohydrates are really the only, endless arena where companies that are in the business of making food can innovate FOREVER. Even companies like Coke, who you would think would hit the innovative wall, flavor-up their sodas, in addition to buying companies. Carbs are for the most part, man-made. You have juices, but MOST juices are not direct from the fruit. In fact, unless you juice it, they aren't, and they're missing the necessary components on store-bought juice to be considered NUTRITIONAL. They're wonderful tasting, but they're not good at all for the body. And most things, in the long-run, are poison if they're not good. Store bought juices lack the fiber in fruit, the naturally occuring enzymes that aid digestion and absorption, and the actual, undiscovered, nutrients and vitamins.
The center pice of Grocery Stores is generally the most damaging to health. In most food marts, that's where the carbs or man-made foods are found, and where they should REALLY put the BIG Pharma companies for heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
I would eat nuts like, Almonds.
I would find and eat as natural and fresh veggies as you can find.
I would eat fruit sparingly, or if it's juiced.
I would eat meat, and focus on eating natural, free range meat.
I would eat fish, fresh fish to be exact.
I would indulge as I needed to remain sane, or to reward myself.
I would dairy like the plague.
I would avoid all sorts of preservatives and additives.
I would avoid MSG, aspartame, and ALL sweetner additives.
I would avoid as many prescription drugs as possible.
I would avoid as many chemical additives to the skin as possible, such as creams, lotions, etc.
The mentality in health shouldn't be...What do I need to take? Rather...you should ask...What could be causing this? Most times, unnatural processes of the body are the result of unnatural input but the user. Crap in, crap out. Not literally.
There's a host of problems, and modern society has created them. Not that we can't find our personal utopia, in the mountains, or hills, or beaches, but we have to strive for that, and that to me, is one piece of being here, as I stated before when Warboss left. That each person contributes like a "tribe," to the overall goodness. However, unlike society, we can't harbor weak tribal members, they harm the safety of all. Rather, we have to show them HOW to fish, how to hunt, how to lead, and left them do it. It has to be done through action and with tough love. This medicating, pacify nature only leads to further weakened men, or tribal members. The ills of modern society has its benefits.
Certainly the workplace is safer. And you have options you didn't have when persuing a career. Access to capital markets is better than it was. Modern society has also lopped off many mundane tasks we needed to survive daily. And has cleaned up the garbage of poor plumbing. Yet, if you look at the internal health of humans over the large masses and look at their mental health, you see an entirely different picture. You see lots of people who live within the confines of their mind, rather than the world. People who feed their bodies, not out of need, but of pleasure. It's all consumption of SOME emotion. We've biased many of the foundations of Maslow's hierarchy of needs and I'm not sure that's a good place to be without better balance than we have. Not that what I want matters for the other 6 billion people, only that I'd like everyone the same opportunity at eye-opening information and free thought, since most thought isn't free. It's just gleaned from someone or somewhere else, so you're not really thinking, you're just parroting.
All that said...all around us, at least in cities and nearby suburbs, are poisons. From the water supply, to the food supply, to the lack of trees and vegetation to provide oygen, to the lack of sunlight had by people over-enjoying their 300 channels.
This is all me. What I do know is, all you TRULY care about your health, so it's vital you know your health, care for it, and understand. All this hoopla that we don't need to because our "benevolent father" or doctors or supplement companies is bunk. Too much responsibility is displaced. Too much litigation is the result. Take FULL responsibility for each and every choice, to where you stick your prick, to what you put in your mouth, and when push comes to shove, you won't make excuses, you'll take action.
