Does blending vegetables destroy the nutrients? Getting tired of eating 10 cups of vegetables in salads every day.

no

Why do people do this weird shit? Can you even name the nutrients in vegetables you're trying to get? Are they in bioavailable forms? Do they come along with anti nutrients?

On what world is eating 10 cups of vegetables healthy, and what big business interests are inducing this idea I you?

What a weird post. I'm on keto, and I'm recommended to eat 10 cups of veggies a day because keto requires more strict nutrient requirements than a carbshit diet.

I have many reasons to be on the diet, like wanting to lower my inflammation and improve my heart health, and getting 4k+ mg of potassium a day is quite important, so I need that many cruciferous veggies and some others on top.

Vegetables have carbohydrates.

vegetables are almost 100% carbs
usually the only time there aren't carbs in veggies is when you're talking about fiber and water

cool posts, but some veggies are very low in net carbs

please stop being retards anytime ty

This is actually a good way to just pound vegetables. I do this for breakfast. Just berries and greens and I shoot it.

[Anonymous No.18147999]

like if you wanna eat carbs, dont let us stop you, but dont pretend that veggies aren't carbs and break out of ketosis

[Anonymous No.18148032]

>>18147447
you didn't answer his question
>im recommended to eat 10 cups of veggies a day
what veggies? a sweet potato is a vegetable. spinach is a vegetable. You have multiple different nutrient profiles there. Who's recommending them?
>keto requires more strict nutrient requirements than a carbshit diet
which ones of these are exclusively, or preferably, provided by plants? And how bioavailable are these nutrients compared to nutrients available via meat, poultry and fish?

>>18147936
>net carbs
a cope invented so ketards can sneak more carbs into their diets.
hold up, I feel it coming
>B...but muh fiber!
Fiber is completely unnecessary in the human diet and is more frequently a cause of gastrointestinal distress than it is a cure. There is no quality study showing that fiber improves the diversity or function of gut biota.

Anon, you're close to breaking the conditioning. You've climbed out of the carbslave cattlefood trench. But now you have to overcome the next level of the cave and understand that there is no need for any plant based food in any human diet.

Anyways, to answer your original question, provided you're not removing the pulp you aren't removing nutrients. Most plants become more nutritive with cooking, which reduces the impact of antinutrients.

retards detected

breaking ketosis is entirely determined by how fast the carbs are broken down into glucose

low carbs = less glucose breakdown and is slower, which is buffered by the additional fiber supplemented by the veggies

I forgot how retarded the average /ck/ poster is, go back to your fast food slop threads, faggots

So stop saying, I don't eat carbs. It's retarded.

[Anonymous No.18148135]

>>18148123
literally nowhere in the thread did I say I ate no carbs

you're schizophrenic

[Anonymous No.18148141]

>>18148081
there is no human need for glucose, your body produces all of the glucose it needs
there is no human need for fiber
there are no plant based nutrients
Plants contain natural pesticides and antinutrients that not only reduce the bioavailability of plant based minerals and vitamins (ie, nutrients), they reduce your ability to absorb animal based nutrients. Many are also carcinogenic.
I am not debating that high fiber, low available carb plants are "better" for you than simple, refined carbs. I am advising you that you are hunting down "better" when "best" is sitting right under your nose.
Stop eating plants.

>*body starts breaking down after 5+ years on carnivore because you stopped feeding a significant portion of your gut biome bacteria with carbs*

[Anonymous No.18148161]

No, blending the vegetables has no effect on their nutrient content. Do you plan to mix it into the meat or gulp it down?

[Anonymous No.18148174]

>>18148161
gulp that shit down so I don't have to take 1 hour consuming a giant salad

something like 100g each of:
>beet tops
>swiss chard
>arugula
>romaine lettuce
then:
>2 avocados
>half a cucumber
>1 whole lemon
>some fresh parsley

then probably add some drops of stevia to sweeten

You can get all of the carbs you need from milk.

That should be fine to do, avocados are gonna make that more buttery than a smoothie

>>18148200
Doesn't even have to be milk, could just eat greek yogurt, kefir, or a fermented dairy product.

[Anonymous No.18148221]

>>18148217
yeah if the avocados fuck it up then I have zero issue taking them out and just eating them by themselves

oxalates in general are linked to reproductive cancers and are present in a large number of plants.

[Anonymous No.18148410]

>>18148400
They're also produced by our bodies.

[Anonymous No.18148424]

>>18147140
Yep, it crushes them and renders them useless. It's best actually to chew your veggies in particular as little as possible. So for example next time you're having cucumber or banana, try to just swallow it whole.

because you and everyone in a 20 mile radius will be dead

[Anonymous No.18148435]

>>18148410
True but they are high in plants and chocolate but you can reduce them by taking in some dairy with your greens and through steaming and soaking. Don't eat anything raw when it comes to oxalates.

[Anonymous No.18148440]

Does it destroy the fibre if you blend it smooth enough?

[Anonymous No.18148447]

>>18148440
No, it would not be possible to blend your smoothie enough to destroy the fiber.

I've never had kidney stones. Just try to have a well balanced diet.

[Anonymous No.18148457]

>>18148400
May I have another for bonus points? Oxolates aren't really a concern for me because I don't have much breast tissue to speak of. If I was a woman I'd probably avoid spinach etc., but I mostly eat kale and broccoli which aren't a significant source of it.

[Anonymous No.18148574]

>>18148400
yeah and there are a number of vegetables low in oxalates and the keto diet in particular, vegetables included, is still massively lowering inflammation so you're not really salient here on any point

[Anonymous No.18148585]

>>18148457
sorry m8 but kale is high in oxalates, so I avoid it
