It's yet another aspect of the low-carb fad.

Which experts exactly are saying that boiled potatoes are unhealthy, and what is the basis for their claims? I'm guessing it's because they contain a lot of starch?

>>11140883
so anon, got any exemple of article of those ''''' expert''' saying that potatoes ( not fried of course) are bad ?

potatoes are, and always have been, empty calories.

Mashed potatoes have more vitamins than a bowl of rice. Enjoy your vitamin deficiency (((purists)))

>boiled potatoes
Eat as many boiled potatoes as you want. You actually cannot get fat eating boiled potatoes, because they are so filling.
But be sure to eat them with some soluble fiber, like some oatmeal, so that you don't get constipation.

>>11141105
Why are ketards so stupid?

>>11140909
>mfw more and more studies are showing low-carb and keto are bad for long-term health, thus confirming what anyone with half a brain already knew

>>11141123
that really isn't saying much. potatoes might give you an extra week before vitamin deficiency symptoms begin compared to rice

>>11141155
except all the people who reverse their type 2 diabetes

The irish LITERALLY depended on potatoes so much that half of them died when rodent niggers killed their crops. Whoever is saying potatoes are poison is fucking stupid

>>11140883
Just look at all the foods that the "experts" have claimed to be bad for you over the past 50-60 years.
Virtually EVERYTHING has been claimed to be bad for you, at one time or another, and all the experts eventually get de-bunked.
What's happening is that the experts need controversy in order for them to make a living, get famous, make a name for themselves, form a brand. Then they will try and sell you shit that you don't need. Over and over again. And the slow and the stupid fall for it, over and over again.
Ignore "experts" like that. Just eat a properly balanced diet. Enjoy your food, anons. Enjoy your life.

>>11140883
Nobody says that
>>11140909

>>11142341

that doesn't mean eat fat and carbs together. Never eat lots of fat and carbs in one meal. It screws up the metabolism real bad.

>>11141198
Which they could have done with a healthy and balanced diet instead of "HURR EAT FATS." But as they showed by getting type 2 in the first place, they have no willpower.

>>11141086

>>11140887

There are number of low-carb retards who are famous in nutrition circles for hating potatoes.

Number one among them is David Ludwig, a turbo-Jew from Harvard who scams fat people by telling them that they didn't get fat from eating like shit, but because of the magical insulin fairy. He also constantly positions potatoes as unhealthy and a contributor to health problems in the United States with no regard for the fact that Americans eat almost zero boiled potatoes.

Primary "argument" is "glycemic index" which is a pseudoscience scam where a certain group of scientists operates an international cartel of laboratories that performs GI measurements and then release unreproducible studies saying that GI is important and governments should force manufacturers to test every single food.

>>11142475
Nobody has ever "reversed type 2 diabetes" with a low-carbohydrate diet.

>>11142552
You quoted the wrong person, dipshit.

>>11142341
>Just eat a properly balanced diet
Hey retard, what's causing this whole debate is that there's no set definition of what constitutes a balanced diet

>>11140883
When were they full of good shit? We've long known that they're sparse on nutrients, and those that they do have are largely concentrated at the surface which many people people off. The bulk of the potatoes is empty calories.

>>11142759
fat is empty calories. the body just stores it away. It doesn't have much use for fat for its immediate needs.

>>11141159
Have you even looked at the nutrient levels? Potatoes have way more nutritional value than rice. It's not even close. The only things you're really missing with potatoes are Vitamin A and D

>>11142552
That's a nice shiny hat, is it real tin foil or just imitation?

>>11142782
Unless you don't stuff your face full of cattle feed like grains, potatoes, etc. Then your body can use fat as an extremely efficient source of energy. In addition, almost all cells in your body use fat. There are some "essential fatty acids" that you must eat, you need them to survive and your body can't make them. There are no essential carbohydrates.

>>11142830
>Potatoes have way more nutritional value than rice.
All positive integers are greater than zero.

>>11141131
If you eat them cooled, it is actually healthier. Some starches become resistant when cooked and cooled, and it is a really good fiber for your gut bacteria to feed on, plus it lowers the glycemic load a little.

>>11141105
What an uneducated post. Potatoes are full of vitamins and minerals. Retarded.

>>11142341
>Ignore "experts" like that. Just eat a properly balanced diet. Enjoy your food, anons. Enjoy your life.

Indeed.

>>11142697

Everything under the sun is safe to eat, as long as you over indulge in one particular thing.

Food studies are full of shit, there are too many variables to make reliable conclusions and their results contradict each other all the time

>>11142782
So what? Keep to the topic at hand. We're talking about potatoes, not arguing about keto,

I feel like I remember someone on Rogan's podcast talking about eating nothing but potatoes for a month or something and losing a lot of weight. Maybe it was Kevin Smith? I believe he said he ate nothing but baked or boiled potatoes for a month, and then added some other food item after that, and then something else after that. It was weird as fuck sounding but I guess it worked, he lost a shit ton of weight.

>>11143265
That was Penn Jilette I think

>>11143300
That was the other person I was thinking it might have been, flipped a mental coin and went with Smith.

Still impressive, Penn lost a lot of weight too. Do you remember if he even ate them with salt/pepper? I know he didn't use butter, cheese, etc.

>>11141159
You can literally live off of potatoes and some kind of red meat.

>>11140883
Potatoes with the skin on is in fact one of the healthiest things you can eat, and cooked with healthy fats like olive oil and going easy on the salt make it just fine.

>>11143496

Salt being bad for you is the worst meme

I am 43, I have heaard so many things denounced as bad/fattening/heart-attack inducing/carcinogenous in just my lifetime I stopped giving a shit a long time ago. Perhaps the only thing that is undoubtedly bad for people is refined sugar.

In a roundabout way most of us are agreeing that these nutritionist/"experts" don't know what the fuck they're talking about. Don't eat trash, exercise, and you're on the right path. Genetic disposition and stress can be considerably worse for you than a few extra grams of carbs.

The people along the coast did fish and survived the famine because of that but people inland had no access to the sea and there was no fishing industry other than people along the coast using small boats to feed themselves. There was lots of food in Ireland at the time but it was exported for sale by the absentee British landlords who only exploited the country after the crown gave them confiscated land taken from
the natives.

I've always been blown away by the amount of potassium. Everyone points to bananas as the best source, but you're getting more of it from a potato.

Can someone explain to me why diet has become the new religion? People pick a side and defend it to the death. Evidence that support your side is applauded, evidence that runs contrary is disregarded and opponents are bashed as if they were infidels.

It depends on the temperature of the oven and the size of the potato
Small go in for 45 minutes, then I stab it with a fork to see if it's done. Medium go for an hour, large go for 75 minutes
Also I only bake at 425º, it's religion.

>I consume a lot of both and ive been losing weight the past few years.
I get a lot of exercise though. If you work out enough it really doesnt seem to matter what you eat as long as you are getting proper nutrition.

If you work out after eating then yes you can get away with it. But a high fat diet is hard on blood vessels and exercise causes inflammation Which is also bad, so exercising after a high fat diet might lead to clogged arteries.

>>11144001
>Doesn't the body use fat to construct cell walls and other cell components and to produce hormones?
My point is all the processes that require fat are slow and gradual. Body fat stores are more than enough to handle the fat requirments of the body. One doesn't need to eat fat constantly to have a healthy body. But one does need to eat carbs constantly to be healthy, because glucose is extremely useful. Humans will die if their blood sugar get's too low. I've never heard of a human dying because their blood fat was too low.

>>11145855
You’d have to be pretty lazy, retarded, and gullible to actually think oats, nuts, and vegetables are unhealthy.

He chose Potatoes because he thought the word "Potato" sounded funny and a big part was about retraining his discipline towards food to actually enjoy it and not flit between a bunch of things he loved and end up over-eating.

Tin foil doesn't absorb into food. It is relatively unreactive at high heat. Unless the foil burns into a white powder or is smoking it didnt infuse any Al into the food.

Could it be that fried potatoes were lumped in with steamed and baked? Or that they're often eaten with worse stuff?

Aluminum oxide, which evenly coats Aluminum foil, makes up a significant portion of the earth's crust/surface. People are adapted to eat trace amounts of it, without issue. Metallic aluminum is pretty inert in the digestive system, especially since it immediately forms an oxide coat.

What's it like to just say things that are factually wrong and ACTUALLY believe yourself?
>plain potatoes are a top tier food in terms of filling you up for very little calories
You're actually retarded. There isn't a unit measure for satiety but it's WIDELY accepted that protein, then fat, then fiber, are the most satiating macronutrients. A potato has none of these things. A potato is literally the least satiating thing that I can think of, next to fucking white rice and bread.

Let's compare 100g potato, 100g prepared oatmeal, and 100g chicken breast.
Potato: 77kcal, 0 fat, 2g protein, 2g fiber, 15g net carb
Oatmeal: 68kcal, 2g fat, 3g protein, 2g fiber, 10g net carb
Oatmeal is lower calorie and has more protein, more fat, and less carbs than a potato. Oatmeal won't necessarily be more satiating though, as it's still just starch.
Chicken breast: 165kcal, 4g fat, 31g protein, no fiber or carbs at all
Wow, just double the calories and you can get exponentially more protein AND lose all the extra starch and sugar. Go chicken.
How about 100g brussels sprouts?
43kcal, 0 fat, 3g protein, 4g fiber, 5g net carb
About half the calories of your potatoes with double the good macros and a fraction of as many carbs, and they're not easily absorbed starchy carbs either.

Grow a brain. At least buy one. You're embarrassing us all.

>>11155631

Because they got conquered. Peasant revolts didn't often turn out that well for the peasants. You need the military on your side for a successful revolt. And the military were the same English that were oppressing them.

Trolling is a subtle art, anon.

>>11155800
not trolling at all. Think about it for a second. Something that is less calorie dense will fill up the stomach faster, and stop a human from eating more, long enough for the body to signal it is full, so one does not eat too many calories

With a fatty meal, The body can fit a lot more calories in the stomach before there is a signal to stop eating. Fatty meals lead to obesity.

Balanced diets are bull shit. Everyone should be loading up on starch and skimping on fa as much as possible.

I also have daily scoop of whey powder and a vitamin pill. Without the whey powder this diet doesn't work. I'd have to eat a lot more meat, which is something I'd rather not do. Whey is much more convenient. It keeps my heart muscle strong which keeps me energized.

Starch gets converted into sugar by amylase. This process already starts in your mouth. Sugar dissolves and is rapidly absorbed by any mucous membrane. It leaves your digestive tract faster than any other nutrient.

What fills you up are insoluble fibres, fats, and proteins. When fats enter your intestine, they trigger a hormonal response that tells you you're full. For normal people, it's hormones like leptin that tell them they're full, not eating until they feel bloated. Protein gives an een stronger satiety response than fat.

You are aware the heart runs on lipids, not glucose, right?

This makes it satiating, by the way. If it is rapidly entering the body, then the full signal will trigger faster. It still takes around 5 hours to digest a piece of bread, regardless.
Fat digestion is more time consuming, so people can gorge themselves on fat before their body tells them to stop eating.

all food triggers hormones.

Yes I know the heart runs on fat. But a heart is all muscle, and is working all the time, so it needs high quality protein, like that found in whey, to stay strong. trust me on this one. whey is a miracle worker.

>potatoes are, and always have been, empty calories.
This anon is correct. The majority of the nutritional value in a potato is in the skin, which 99% of us discard.

Cooking potatoes at high temps is basically giving yourself cancer unless it's boiled.

>However, according to their research, there is no concern on non-neoplastic effects. Furthermore, while the relation between consumption of acrylamide and cancer in rats and mice has been shown, it is still not clear whether acrylamide consumption has an effect on the risk of developing cancer in humans, and existing epidemological studies in humans are very limited and don't show any relation between acrylamide and cancer in humans.
Really makes me think
