  • Carnivore I wouldn't be surprised about though.

    Carnivore is just keto.

  • Does anyone use SimpleX chat? Why or why not? Is it actually tangibly better for privacy than say, Signal, for example?

  • Yes. I use it as a copy paste buffer between devices.

    ABF : Animal based foods - the zero carbohydrate ketogenic that usually has lots of controversy

  • Why are fruits and berries healthy, even though they are mostly just sugar?

    Jump

  • Sure, but the fact remains that glucose is sweet.

    Unless you have FLD the vast majority of metabolic damage is from persistently elevated blood glucose. There is no dietary requirement for exogenous glucose in our food.

    So is 100g of fructose worse then 100g of glucose? Sure, but glucose is still quite bad and abundant in most people's diets.

  • I would love to see a well funded interventional study on institutionalized populations comparing a totally pbf diet vs totally abf diets and settle the debate once and for all.

  • You would be very surprised! The effects of low-carbohydrate diets on cardiovascular risk factors: A meta-analysis

    TLDR Metabolic health is mostly impacted by poor diet, excess glucose and carbohydrates (which directly become glucose). Reducing elevated glucose levels has direct and measurable improvements on blood pressure and CVD risk.

    A strict ketogenic intervention is so potent that people taking blood pressure medication have to be very careful and monitor their blood pressure when starting to reduce their medicine so they don't faint from hypotension.... i.e. Cardiovascular disease risk factor responses to a type 2 diabetes care model including nutritional ketosis induced by sustained carbohydrate restriction at 1 year: an open label, non-randomized, controlled study

  • Whole fruits are a treat that can be tolerated by a healthy person in very moderate quantities. Think about the quantities you would get if you went out physically picking fruit off of a tree. So not a big bowl of easy to consume fruit from the grocery store, but when you put the physical effort in.... It's ok

    There is no essential nutrition in fruit, historically, the role of fruit was as a fattening device before winter. An opportunistic caloric boon.

    The biggest argument in favor of citrus fruits is there vitamin c. In the modern dietary context with really high blood glucose levels there is competition for the natural vitamin c pathway, the glut4 receptor. Citrus, by virtue of flooding the body of vitamin c, gets enough vitamin c into these cells and wins the competition with the blood glucose levels.

    If a whole fruit offsets something worse you could eat, like a candy bar - then yes it is healthier then a candy bar, but it's also healthier then a cigarette. That doesn't tell us much about its essential levels of "health" in isolation.

    Tldr: whole fruit is a sometimes treat, but it does not contribute to your health.

  • Glucose by itself tastes sweet

    Glucose by itself is also very unhealthy

  • close but not quite

    All carbohydrates have to be converted into glucose. Your breads, pastas, starches, etc

    All forms of glucose can be used directly, without the conversion. But that does not make them healthier by any stretch

  • Laptops create systems. Phones feed algorithms. The asymmetry determines power

    Jump

  • This is a new phrasing of the old take

    Laptops are for creatives

    Phones are for consumers

    The big divide isn't the computing power but the input methods, allowing for richer expression

  • When a person gains weight and keeps the weight on for a long time, is that old fat in your body, or does the fat get replaced over time?

    Jump

  • fat cells

  • Ask HN: Why is software quality collapsing? (Apple Calculator leaks 32GB RAM)

    Jump

  • This is exactly what I was going to say. People only make things to the constraints they're given. If you reduce the constraints they're not going to make anything any better. There's no reason for a modern calculator designer to write stuff in assembly if they don't have to.

  • Scientists debunk claims of seed oil health risks

  • So the debunking is an opinion piece, not fundamental research. Harvard is not making a new publication, it's just giving out pre-existing opinion in this context

  • The weight set point theory doesn't apply to low carbohydrate eating. The abundance of fat cells does not make people doing keto fatter. It's mostly the carbohydrate insulin model of obesity. Eating food that drives insulin makes people gain weight.

    The abundance of active adipocytes can drive leptin issues, and aromatase issues. But as those adipocytes get emptied, there are no longer being as metabolically active and aren't an issue. Especially on low carbohydrate diets that don't drive elevated insulin levels

    Jump

  • People eating a whole food diet don't keep gaining weight throughout life, it's the modern diets that are tied to the epidemics of modern obesity.

    Basically it's the carbohydrate insulin model of obesity. Eat carbs, drive high blood glucose, drive high insulin, which drives weight gain.

  • Hypertrophy vs hyperplasia

    Europeans tend to be hyperplastic and can handle being fatter

    Asians tend to be hypertrophic and get worse outcomes at lower levels of fatness
