>You are by no means tricking your body into starving, you're just nudging it in a different metabolic direction.

That's what ketosis is. It's a starvation response. No animal in the world lives in a state of ketosis, even carnivores are adapted to produce more glucose from the protein in their diets to avoid ketosis. You've been sold on a diet that makes you sick and gives you chronic low blood sugar.

>100% of white on black rape

I think you meant black on white rape, but either way that was a weird thing to say. How could it be any less than 100% when you're so specific with it? That's like saying "men commit 100% of the crimes that involve men commiting crimes"

> it's not nearly as high-quality or pure as it is with meat and animal products.

I don't think you even understand what these things mean or their relevancy

>>5469489

Why do you think it's common for regular red meat eaters to live into their 90 and why do you think you're guaranteed to? And why is hummus the only thing you think of when trying to think of food that isn't meat?

>>5418391

Alright, either you're trolling me or you're a Christian

>>5391927

I think you're confusing good and bad cholesterol in the blood cholesterol sense with dietary cholesterol, which is all considered bad. I don't know why this offends you so much

This is like saying "no, that whole evolution thing is wrong, the earth is only 6000 years old!" and then linking to a Christian science website

I'm pretty sure that's called "apathy"

>However, you're still in the wrong

How do you figure that?

>>5023711

I don't know if you're just fucking with me or what, but I would be amazed if all the fat people promoting high-fat, low-carbohydrate diets were actually eating very little fat and eating a lot of carbohydrates, while all the thin people promoting high-carbohydrate, low-fat diets were actually eating a bunch of fat and little to no carbs

.... And some don't

Those aren't phytochemicals though. Why are you offended?

What do YOU think ad hominem means?

Hint: It's not what you say when someone says something mean to you

Which is mostly rice and noodles with vegetables.

>>yet here I sit four years on maintaining a 270lbs weight loss

So you stopped being 500 pounds fat and now you're stuck at 230 pounds fat

.... Okay, I assume you're not very knowledgeable about biology and whatnot. You don't get diabetes from sugar, you get it from fat. Sugar is what your body runs on, fat is what keeps the sugar from doing its job and pooling up in your blood. Fruit can't cause diabetes, but ice cream and cake can because there's a bunch of fat accompanying the sugar. Now if you dip your bananas in chocolate or peanut butter, yeah, you'd have a point. A low-fat high-carb diet is not something that promotes diabetes, and in fact is often recommended for diabetic people to REVERSE diabetes

>If he is really eating 8K calories of fruit a day he would; A. have to be doing a lot of working out, because it doesnt matter what the calories are, calories in, calories out, period

Come on now. Not every calorie source is the same. A carbohydrate is not the same as a protein or a fat. Look up something called "de novo lipogenesis." Humans don't convert carbohydrates into fat like a cow or a pig can under most circumstances. I think under extreme food-stuffing can start to happen, like if you eat 15k cals a day of sugar somehow, but even then the calorie to fat ratio can't exceed 30%

Carbohydrates are pure energy, their purpose isn't for fat storage. Eating fat is how you pack on fat, which is of course a survival technique. If you want fat on you, eat fat. If you want to be lean, eat carbs. You can lose weight while eating fat, but you literally have to starve yourself to do it

What is this, the 70s?

>>4522108

> taking in 70% your calories in carbs is what made america fat to begin with

... What do YOU think the standard american diet is? Rice and fruit? It's the excessive fat that made people fat

>>4515447

You raise an interesting point, sir, but vegans.... don't just eat vegetables. Is that what you think it is?

>>4504390

Now move your finger to all the teeth past your first 4 teeth. You feel dumb yet, kiddo?

>>4417197

Yeah, looks totally serious and not kidding at all. You must be a college professor or something.
