Hmmm. How much of it is beef and how much of it is rice?

0 fiber diet with perfect digestion, to the dismay of psychedeliceagle

2MAD

note: If I was able to consume dairy or organs, I wouldn't have half of these supplements. so this stack is idiosyncratic spot-supplementation.

@RendHeaven more carbs than I thought, especially since you're obvious not going for micronutrients. What's the rationale?

@RendHeaven How old are you?

 


Deal with the issue now, on your terms, in your control. Or the issue will deal with you, in ways you won't appreciate, and cannot control.

@aurum carbs are generally preferable for male hormone optimization (keto will crush testosterone). Which means you want at minimum 100g carbs to escape ketosis. but that is a mixed-signal limbo state that risks low-energy crashes. So 200g carbs is where you start to feel really good in a sustainable way. But then if you're in the gym every day as I am, there is higher muscle glycogen demand to keep up the intensity and recovery. Thus 300g. At 350+g, I start to pack on fat fast (mostly a calorie issue). Thus 300g is where I achieve energy equilibrium

starch beats fructose for muscle recovery. hence i eat white rice rather than a bunch of grapes and pineapples (to paul saladino's dismay). and I choose white rice over brown rice to reduce phytic acid and arsenic, which is concentrated in the outer shell. white rice is a processed food that I stand by lol. Potatoes are a strong runner-up contender behind rice. It's really hard to go wrong with meat & potatoes... but the oxalates slightly concern me, personally

I also wonder if having japanese genetics gives me an innate compatibility with rice. I feel significantly better on rice than bread, pasta, or potatoes, it's not even close

@Natasha Tori Maru 25. I started eating beef and rice every day at age 22. Going into my 4th year now. Only green lights so far

looks great, i'm impressed. what's the reason for zero fiber, if i may ask?


if you deliberately plan to be less than you are capable of being, then i warn you that you'll be deeply unhappy for the rest of your life

@daydrinking feels better, less bloat. simple as that

fiber acts as a genuinely powerful shield. it cleans out blood sugar spikes, endotoxins, excess estrogen, oxidized bile acids, etc.

Basically if you're prone to pounding sugar, junk food, alcohol, pro-oxidative inputs (seed oils, burnt or processed meat, smoking, etc.), or you're fat/estrogenic (especially high in visceral fat) with low movement or low antioxidants, or you just indulge in standard western diet cheat meals (even if rarely), then you should get more fiber.

So yeah most people would benefit a lot from fiber, and dieticians are not wrong for pushing that narrative.

Personally, I am none of the above so being shielded or not makes little difference.

Think of fiber as a fire hydrant. If you're on fire, you want to drown out the fire with water.

But if you're not on fire, then whether or not you spray water makes no difference. If anything, it makes you soggy and uncomfortable (bloated, farting, etc.)

but then again, some people swear by high-fiber and I don't want to downplay that either. And if you're a fan of plants, fiber is inevitable. Even though I prefer a beef-centric omnivore approach, plant-based (Mediterranean/whole foods vegetarian) diets still mog standard western diets, don't get it twisted

Viewing these things as "shields" and not things that give an additive effect seems a bit self-serving in your case. There are other sources of pathology than diet that can be offset by fiber and related phytonutrients (free radicals from stress etc.). Also, do you always move or work out after your meal, and if not, do you experience side effects due to post-prandial glucose? Do you generally experience side effects due to post-prandial glucose? And how often do you eat?
