Checked. Not vegan. American breakfast as we know it stems from a 1920s marketing campaign by Edward Bernays, Sigmund Freud's nephew. It started because there was an insane surplus of pork and eggs in the US at the time and the pork and poultry associations turned to Bernays to help solve the problem.
Bernays used many of his uncle's psychology concepts on essentially how to trick people into buying something. Basically showing a slogan like "9 out of 10 doctors recommend starting your day with a hearty breakfast" on top of a picture of bacon and eggs to build the association that eggs and bacon were a nutritious, healthy breakfast.
I'm not here to say whether or not eggs and bacon are good or bad for breakfast, just that our stereotypical breakfast stems from a fucking advertising campaign to get rid of surplus foods.

The people saying "fat makes you fat" never talked about calories. It was just about avoiding fat to lose weight.

I don't really understand your misunderstanding.

In the 1950s, Ancel Benjamin Keys's Seven Countries Study put saturated fats as the main cause of a myriad of diseases which typically manifest in overweight or obese people; coronary heart disease, cholesterol and obesity correlated with increased mortality from cancer.
There was a huge push by the sugar industry in the 1960s and 70s to put blame on saturated fats as the cause of obesity. Key's was also instrumental in this, heavily criticizing and discrediting the book, Pure, White and Deadly, which aimed to put the blame on CHD on sugar, not fat.
This lead to an increased boon in sales of margarine and low-fat products.
In 1977 the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Nutrition and Human Needs released their nutritional guidelines which explicitly stated to try and follow a low-fat diet.
>https://opencommons.uconn.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1482&context=srhonors_theses
>While numerous dietary adjustments were recommended in order to improve health, fat was
identified as the most instrumental factor.
This only helped spur the narrative that fat was bad, and because people are dumb as shit, these ideas all boiled down to "fat makes you fat"
You also have to understand the context of the time. Nutritional labeling requirements weren't really a thing until the 1973 when labeling requirements were finally required for all FDA-regulated food.
Prior to this, most food was prepared at home from the raw ingredients, so people didn't think about calories in as much depth as we do today.

First off, your photo doesn't say whether they accounted for calories or not in either diet, so we don't know if the high-fat diet was unrestricted calories and the low-fat diet was restricted calories.
But consider the availability of calories between the two groups. In the low-fat group it's easy, just don't eat fats, but basically the whole grocery store is still free game for you. This inherently makes it more difficult to stay true to a calorie-restricted diet just on the availability of food you can eat. Not to mention all the low-fat foods from the 70s-90s low-fat trends. Typically fat people are fat because they have problems with self control.
Now let's look at the high-fat, low-carb, unrestricted calories diet. Well there goes 90% of the grocery store. You can't just grab whatever off the shelf and expect to be able to eat it if you want to adhere to your diet. This artificial limit to calories already sets it miles ahead for weak-willed fatties to avoid all the junky processed foods that are available to the low-fat dieter. This pushes the keto dieter towards a calorie deficit by default.
Show me a ketoer who tracks their calories, routinely eats more calories than their metabolic rate, and still looses weight. I doubt you would find anyone.
Keto isn't some magic bullet diet, it's a restriction diet that helps control a fatty's tendency to just eat whatever trash floats by their mouth.
I could arbitrarily cut out all foods that contain the letter O, but still allow myself to eat unrestricted calories and still lose weight because my options are already severely limited and will naturally edge me toward calorie deficit

Just wait until you realize that the US Dietary Guidelines/1992 release of the Food Pyramid, were partially pushed by the grain lobbyist to promote sales, but also by the USDA themselves to "protect" farmers, and to also lower the cost of providing for America's poor. If they say grains are a good part of the diet, they can feed more people with less money.

Look for incentives. Who benefits by the information given to you or by the products you buy. Most things nowadays aren't done out of the goodness in peoples' hearts, rather money and control.

Specifically in that video they harp on food labeling laws which say foods high in saturated fats/fats in general can't be labeled as healthy or nutritious. Why is that? Who would benefit from this?

Once you acknowledge what they want is for consumers to buy the plant-based substitutes, it becomes ludicrous to suggest they are pouring money and effort into convincing people to eat meat.

>I totally agree that vegans should be extra careful with their nutrition and especially they shouldn't ignore cravings and other symptoms. I think we can tackle deficiencies by understanding what nutrients we are missing, and get those, from plants or from animals according to our preferences and values. I wouldn't necessarily blame everything that happened to you to veganism, to be frank. Warning people on the other hand side is a good idea. If you felt like you were lacking nutrients you shouldn't have ignored it, our health is the most important thing.

When comparing two pieces of diet advice all you need to do is separate people into two groups and give them different diet advice. That's it.

Do you think advising people to eat UNLIMITED calories of fat and protein or advising people to eat RESTRICTED calories including carbs works better?

Many times the same thing has been done. It turns out unlimited calorie low-carb works better than restricting calories.

>"A large body of evidence shows there were once enormous swaths of the world where the coronary heart disease epidemic seemed to be almost non-existent, such as rural China and sub-Saharan Africa. It’s not genetics: When people move from low- to high-risk areas, their disease rates appear to skyrocket as they adopt the diet and lifestyle habits of their new homes. The extraordinarily low rates of heart disease in rural China and Africa have been attributed to the extraordinarily low cholesterol levels among these populations. Though Chinese and African diets are very different, they are both centered on plant-derived foods, such as grains and vegetables. By eating so much fiber and so little animal fat, their total cholesterol levels averaged under 150 mg/dL, similar to people eating contemporary strictly plant-based diets.
>According to William C. Roberts, editor in chief of the American Journal of Cardiology, the only critical risk factor for atherosclerotic plaque buildup is cholesterol, specifically elevated LDL cholesterol in our blood. To drastically reduce LDL cholesterol levels, it appears we need to drastically reduce our intake of trans fat, which comes from processed foods and naturally from meat and dairy; saturated fat, found mainly in animal products and junk foods; and, playing a lesser role, dietary cholesterol, found exclusively in animal-derived foods, especially eggs.
>Notice the pattern? The three boosters of bad cholesterol—the number-one risk factor for our number-one killer—all stem from eating processed foods and animal products. This likely explains why populations living on traditional diets revolving around whole plant foods have largely remained free from the epidemic of heart disease."

Not sure what strawman you're building of me, but I'm not vegan or vegetarian. Industrial ag is a problem and the green revolution simultaneously saved billions of lives and will end many, many more in due time.

Cattle, pork and poultry, when raised right, is tite. The reality of it is that 70% of beef, 95%+ poultry and pork are all raised in a factory farm setting in the united states.
You say that plant-based corps are encouraging a large amount of suffering and death, yet these factory farms play into the same systems that plant-based foods rely on as well.
Unless you eat ethically-sourced meat products, you're contributing to the same problem you're complaining about.

Plant-based or not, our entire food system has been subverted by corporations, lobbyists and bought politicians all in the name of money. It's a cancer that is making vast swaths of the population sick, and it's been spreading to the rest of the world since the green revolution. We're sitting at about 70% of adults over 20 being overweight or obese right now, that number is just going to keep on shooting up all while you retards bicker about which coonsoomering lifestyle is the best consoomerism lifestyle.

Buy whole foods, buy foods that are grown in ways that don't deplete the soils, that don't grow in a fucking modified desert (CA). Know the farmer who slaughtered your meat, who picks your eggs and milks their cows. If the food you eat is a mystery to you, you're doing it wrong.

HDL and LDL are not Cholesterol!
Cholesterol is one thing and is the fundemental piece in every single cell in your body, you are pretty muh made out of cholesterol and saturated fats

HDL and LDL are actually transporters, if they are high, it means blood pressure is high which means there could make blocked arteries which would kill you in a few years if you dont change, thats whats causes heart disease

But now think with your brainlet brain, why would cholesterol block the arteries ? well, cholesterol is used to do healing in your blood vessels; whenever there is a problem cholesterol rushes to heal the inflammation. which most always succeds EXCEPT FOR VEGETABLE OILS WHICH CONTAIN PLANT CHOLESTEROL

So there was a US Gov't study that looked into rising health problems specifically heart disease. Their conclusion was that to much red meat (specifically beef) was the problem. Of course the beef producers threw a hissy fit. So they watered the recommendations down to "don't eat fatty food." There then followed 30 years of replacing all fats in processed with sugars, of branding any fatty food as unhealthy and of skyrocketing obesity rates and heart problems.

But at least beef production wasn't adversely affected.

No, to be fair they're in very good health overall, and they're not vegans either. But they have a view that milk is basically poison for adults otherwise God wouldn't have created us to develop lactose intolerance with age, and that anything GMO or "processed" is also poison and unnatural. Some of their views on staple grains are borderline Kaczynski-esque. When they do eat meat, they exclusively eat free-range organic meat.

Sugar is only bad in high amounts. You're going to have a very hard time consuming that much sugar from unprocessed fruit. Fruit also digests slower and contains other compounds that help control blood sugar.

Nobody has become overweight and unhealthy because of fruit. I used to think the same thing once I started learning more about nutrition and how much sugar was added to everything, that fruit must also be bad since it has sugar, but it's not true.
