Yeah!
Where is he now?

>>9867620
Seamen dying from Skorbut because they ate nothing but souse beg to differ.

>>9867620
If this is what he believes why is he eating a bowl of fruit while explaining this instead of a triple bacon cheeseburger?

>>9867620
He learned everything he knows about nutrition from reading /fit/ and now believes that hitting your macros is all you need

>>9867620
There is some truth to this, for one all the public nutrition models are highly bullshit created by the industry not from any scientific model. There is also some truth in combining some foods will enable or disable the nutrients of another, such as filling your face with sugary carbs will require more Vitamin C as they compete for resources. That said there's PhDs being paid to prepare highly optimized nutrition plans for pro atheletes so some kind of model exists that isn't bullshit.

>>9867815
>demand for sport nutritionists
physicians were highly respected for millenia, but they only became better than placebos during 20th century. so existing demand is insufficient proof.

>>9867815
there is general nutrition that is true for everyone, like a very one-sided diet is definetely bad for you. So have a somewhat good mixture of everything and you should be good.

Then there is highly-optimized nutrition plans that can not be designed for the general public, because the way food gets processed is a very individual thing, e.g. every body has a different "optimal" diet. So pro athletes are getting one of those, because they can afford a personal nutrionist, but a normal bloke cant.

Martin is skinny fat. He has like no muscle. Don't take fitness or nutrition advice from him.

>>9867881
He doesnt exercise, it says nothing about his diet

idk much about nutrition but I take L-Citrulline/L-Arginine because it makes your dick bigger and increases erection quality substantially due to the blood flow gains

>>9867746

Go vegan and drink many cups of coffee and walk 90 minutes per day.
This is objectively the healthiest lifestyle :)
Also limit fat (oil) intake to 20g or less per day.

There is diet made by blood ... If u are 0 like me you should be avoiding sour food etc if u dont wanto end with problems

There might be a thing to know about brain nutrition you shithead weakling that doesn´t deserve the women i will conquer.

It´s sometimes surprising what the right nutrition can add to your body!

>>9867620
Without looking into this, I agree with this to a degree. People have an arbitrary view of "healthy food" and "non-healthy food". "A salad is healthy because....people told me".
A sloppy fast food burger can have the same exact nutritional value as a "healthy salad". You could live your entire life off those burgers assuming they met your daily needs. To top it off, in almost every first world country, you get way more than you need in daily nutrition. Therefore, the average person doesn't have to think about it.

How's prison, martin?

Free Shkreli

>>9867655

He is not that based because whatever shit field medicine is considered to be isn't as pure as field theory and he is too much of a söyboy to shoot a nigga

>>9867620
Can I eat nothing but cured meats then

>>9869076
>You could live your entire life off those burgers assuming they met your daily needs
your short, 40 year life, sure.
I do agree with you to an extent, however. I think a better example would be people drenching their salads in mayo and saying it's cause it's a salad.

>>9867620
wtf why didnt someone tell me this earlier? from now on im going to eat only hamburgers and drink sugary soft drinks

Fixed that for you

you finish your STEM phd and go to a job interview. suddenly the new owner appears, introduces himself as Martin Shkreli, and gives you this question:

>I promise to give you one dollar every January 1st forever. for how much would you resell this contract?

are you able to answer correctly and get the job. are you better than some pleb from /biz/?

>>9874077
I tear the contract apart and set the pieces on fire while holding the receptionist hostage. I calmly explain the steady decline of the United States economy and the american dollar's uselessness in the close future. Finally, I let the receptionist go and shoot Shkreli dead on in the center of his heart, right before everyone else kills me.

>>9874077
>answer correctly
3.50

>>9874110
>>9874112
you're thrown out by shkreli's goons

>>9874077
Trick question; Shkreli is in prison so can't be interviewing me. But the answer to this question depends on what discount rate one uses, and would be calculated based on the sum of the geometric series. Based on the 7% (nominal) average stock market return, the value is about $14

>>9867670
That's uncanny.

>>9874077

Infinite value, as long as the dollar remains, so about $50-60, accounting for inflation and interest.

Shkreli is a genuine brainlet (130 IQ max) and pseudo-based. The only thing you guys should learn from him is work ethic.

>>9875948
Brainlets are sub 100 IQ, ya dunce

>>9874077
2 million

>>9875950
That's what someone in the 100-130 IQ range would say. I'm sorry, but 130 IQ is king of brainlets max.

>>9867664
If you actually watch the video he means in terms of organic and non-gmo hype nonsense, not fucking Doritos and Oreos.

>>9875873
dats it
>>9875918
if one would use a discount rate of about 2%

(((they))) have their own name for it

shkreli used it all the time in his spreadsheet model lectures back in 2016, found it pretty fascinating how close most of his predictions were.

>>9874077
I don't sell annuities because I, unlike Shkreli, have a sense of ethics.

>>9867620
k then, eat shit

99% of the people calling each other basedboys on this site probably look like him.

>>9868463
You unironically do not belong on this board if you were dumb enough to fall for the blood type diet.

He's basically right tho
You just need to watch total calories consumed and their macronutrient breakdown. Rapid consumption of large amounts of simple sugar is known to cause a spike in blood insulin levels, which leads to insulin insensitivity and obesity, but there's no mechanism for discriminating between 800 calories of sugar from organic non-gmo brownies and 800 calories of soda. Salad (even without dressing) is not intrinsically healthy. It's "healthy" only in the limited sense that is has very few calories, and you are less likely to overshoot a daily quota by adding a salad than you would by adding a burger on top of the same diet - not in the sense that replacing X calories of burgers with X calories of salad is in any way better for you.

>>9878049
potassium intake correlates with organ health of liver, kidneys (and by extension adrenal gland). and thats one of the reasons why salads are healthy.
here's a study for kidneys
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30018885
they measured sodium/potassium ratio because sodium impacts potassium absorption
>Decreased dietary Na/K ratio may be considered as an effective dietary approach to modify the risk of kidney dysfunction.
shkreli probably knows about these and similar studies, Maybe he doesnt count them as proper clinical studies, with real "experimental food" and not just questionnaires about dietary habits.

>>9878372
Right, but in that sense salad doesn't confer any benefits you wouldn't get from "low sodium/sodium free table salt," direct supplementation or other high potassium foods. The objective is still to meet certain nutrient quotas and an individual food can't be called good or bad at that, only the whole diet. Even the "superfoods" are about on par with any diet plus a multivitamin in that regard.
I'm curious, is salad high in potassium relative to total mass, or just relative to total calories?

>>9878407
usually expressed as high K per 100 gram or equivalent amerifat unit

>The objective is still to meet certain nutrient quotas and an individual food can't be called good or bad at that, only the whole diet.
If an individual food contributes significantly to one or more quotas which need to be met without harming your other quotas (e.g. destroying your calorie quota), in what world is it not good at meeting your nutrient quotas?

>>9878435
>If an individual food contributes significantly to one or more quotas which need to be met without harming your other quotas (e.g. destroying your calorie quota), in what world is it not good at meeting your nutrient quotas?
It's not a minimum threshold to clear, it's a range to fall into. Say one food gives you 100% your daily amount of some nutrient for about 5 calories, but that nutrient is common in many other foods you eat and you end up overshooting by a wide margin. Is that food "good at giving you a good diet"? It inherently depends on how you use it/what you eat with it.
Besides if "contributes significantly to one or more quotas which need to be met without harming your other quotas" is how we choose to define healthy food, then multivitamins are the healthiest food of all.

>>9867620
He's right about whole grain at least.

Oh look, nutrition does matter.

Fun fact, pesectarianism is as effective.
>A 1999 meta-analysis of five studies comparing vegetarian and non-vegetarian mortality rates in Western countries found that in comparison with regular meat-eaters, mortality from ischemic heart disease was 34% lower in pescetarians, 34% lower in ovo-lacto vegetarians, 26% lower in vegans and 20% lower in occasional meat-eaters.[28]

Increasing beta hydroxybutyrate levels has been shown to increase NGF in rodent models. If I remember right this was through either exogenous or increasing fitness levels.
