You better don't.

Especially not that food pyramid, its prioritizing plenty of what is not good at all.

Good: Vegetables. Fish. A little amount of organically raised meat: little, but regularly. The mentioned fats. Eggs. Nuts, seeds. Hirse. Oats. USE SUPPLEMENTS, but not repalkcing food with them, but as a n addiiton: hence the name: supplementation. Get enough salt - plenty, if you like it and feel like it. Drink not less than 1.5l, if you are thirsty and have appetite for it: more. Do not drink according to timetable: listen to myour body, he lest you nwo when he wanst water. If you take lots of salt, drink more accordingly, that simple it is. Not drinking enogun but tkaing lots of salt is potentially unhealthy over time.

Salt is not the problem, it never was. Sugar is the problem.

A very few fruits only (too much fructose on board).

Cut down potatoes, rice, noodles, bread, wheat, rye, barley, transfats, industrially produced fats (margarine, plant seed oils), milk, soy, sugar and sweets, "stuff that has a barcode on it", industrially processed food, fast food, convenient food, softdrinks, glucose and fructose syrups and HFCS.

Diabetes comes from insuline-resistence. Insuline resistence comes from having too many insuline spikes, and too huge such spikes. Diabetes Type 2 in the very most cases CAN BE CURED. :03: Fat does not make you fat. Carbs do, sugars do. Carbs are sugar, sugar is carbs. Carbs and sugar make you fat. Not (good) fat. Inflammatory fatty acids will make you ill over the years: silent inflammations, chronic deseases, problems with the immune system, maybe even cancer. Avoid them (Omega 6).

Cut down on carbs. Eat less often, and not so much, but do not feel hunger or appetite. Don'T snack. Dont eat alld ay long. Dont travel from one snack or meal to the next all day long.

Tip: if you feel a craving for sweets, instead out a big grian of salt in your mouth. The reward mechnism in the brain for sweetness, saltiness and hard drugs are one and the same.

We do not live in the meideval anymore, we do not do that ehjavy pohysiucal work anymore, do not wear ehavy armour and do not work on the field with bvare ahnds all day long. We must not have their ammounts of calories every day. Most of us SIT all day long. Do you fill your car's tank every day by habit, even if not having diorven anyhwere meanwhile? Gasoline spills over every time, sooner or later your place goes up in flames.



My sins are three: again too many snacks (I love good chocolate and nougat), and too little vegetable, probably too little exercising. The price I pay: after having dropped from 92 to 77kg and staying there for one year, I then got weak again and was less strict, I paid the price and gained 4-5 kg over one year again. This comes from that. It sucks, but thats how it is. I jmkust not have illusions or excuses, I knwo what is happenign and why.

Like a smoker. :arrgh!:

Try curry, you seldom see a fat Indian :)

I absolutely LOVE sharwood Corry Powder, mostly use di the midl sweeter one, but sometimes the hot verison, too. I stockpoile it in signficant quantities.

German brands for Curry powder are for the bin. Taste bland, flat and listless like sawdust mixed with grated dry cardboard. Sharwood's is the best I know, I love that stuff.

Curry must not be hot, it is so rich in flavours and fruitness that if it is too hot it blinds the tongue and you cannot enjoy the many aromes anymore. Thats why I prefer the mild one.

When it comes to stimulating fat burning and bile activity, there are better remedies anyway. Milk thistle, dandelion, turmeric, pepperin, various bioflavanoids, vegetable stenols, bitter substances, bitter herbs. Modern civilizational food in generla has way too few bitter substances, but we need them, we really benefit from them.


BTW, in India you have regional pandemics of obesity, it is linked to regions where the supply of bad fats and oils as well as using plenty of wheat and crops is high. I red about it in deNicolantonio's book on fats, but I would need to look it up again, I do not recall the details out of the blue. But fact is India has indeed a very massive and still growing problem with obesity and follow-on heath conditions. It just escapes the eye of journalists since it mostly affects regions that are not that prominently present on TV. The villains are plant seed oils, and wheat.

Thats why I say: avoid plant seed oils completely, all of them, and cut down carbs as much as you feel you can "sacrifice" over time without killing your compliance. Carb-stuff is tasty, that is the rub, isn't it, giving it up is not all that easy. So dont give it up, but cut it down significantly. Have carb-freee days, or complete fastening days. Its not as difficult as it sounds. And no, you do not start to digest your own muscles that way, that is nonsense. Oh boy, doctors of the world, please get back to your senses. I recommend Dr. Fung's lectures on this matter. He just rolls his eyes when he is beign told or asked for stuff like this. Its in this thread, somewhere above this post, early last year I think.

I don't make make curries from scratch any more, mainly because of the wife complaining of the aroma left in the house after boiling large quantities of onions and frying the different spices etc. (funnily enough, curry powder was never an ingredient used that often).

These days I either purchase a takeaway or buy them ready made.

The day before yesterday I purchased the Sharwood one at ASDA and the one on the right from Aldi.

Oh how could I forget that Skybird is right when a spice is to hot it paralyse your taste on your tongue.

I'll never forget the dish I ordered at this restaurant in our Subsim meet in the Netherlands.

Always have a tomato at the ready (as told my by my old Indian chef)

Absolutely stunning data! Phenomenal.

The risk reductions reported in this meta analysis are absolutely awesome.

This is a ver ybig story, at leats it should be, and it should be so sinc eman years becasue I know its not the firts time the foudn such stunning results regarding Vitamine D.

We have a pandemic running in the western world - and everywhere in the world where Western food habits, and especially American food habits with its excessive consummation of sugars, corn syrups, fructose, high-fructose-corn-syrup (HFCS) and so forth dominate people's eating.

And making me giggling again: these studies found no raise in hypercalcemia, no rais ein kidney stones. These are the two oiverkill arugments many doctors still make against prescribing or privately using Vit-D. I called that bollocks three years ago, and it was bollocks already before, and it is still bollocks today. You need to EXCESSIVELY overdose, and over longer times, several months, to have at least the chance to produce these side effects. America, India are terrible palces for diabetes, its expldiouing ther,e and millions do not even know they have it and slide deeper and deeper into it doing all kind of severew damnages to their bodies and organ systems.

YOU SHALL NOT TRUST YOUR DOCTOR BLINDLY.

YOU SHALL NOT TRUST YOU GOVERNMENT'S HEALTH OFFICIALS AT ALL.

Listen what they tell you, but then weigh it, do some research on it yourself, use your brain. Be aware of to what degree big pharama interests and food industry lobbbyism are interfering with policy making and curriculum-forming for university students. On this issue, and many others, governments completely fail us all, and we, the people, pay for it with our health, and shortened life expectancy, and deaths. It gets worse today now that even eco and climate aguments are used to tlel people how to misfeed themselves and run into certain nutritional deficits stemming from a food pratcice that rules out certain things for "the higher cause". Krank werden fürs Klima! could become a German slogan.

Its capital crime at work, plain and simple. Conspiracy to not only protect the profits of the food and pharma corporations, but to even boost them further. At the cost of our health. The little doctor down your street must not even be a guilty one, he just practices what he has been taught when he was a student and had no choice. He is just a human, his day has just 24 hours, and his job maybe did not show up to be like he expected it to become. Also, he is entangled in a network of procedures and rules by the law makers and health insurers that do not leave him too many freedoms.

At risk is your health and life expectancy. Whether you follow the doctor's advice or not - the consequences good or bad will always be lived by you, by nobody else, and certainyl not by the doctor.

Listen, but do not blindly trust into just everything just because he is a doctor. Check. Question. Research yourself.


I have a whole long list of medical topics now already ion whcih I would refuse to just blindly obey the official recommendations and practices and drug advices. Onc you start to do your won research on such things you soon find that it doe snto stop again and that the list of dubious contrsdictiosna nd questionable assumptions becomes longer and longer. First its alarming, then it becomes scary.



There is no reason and no excuse for just blindly trusting.


I learned that at the latest during the Covid pandemic and the way they cheated on it. One of the biggest fraudulent schemes ever in the history of medicine. It took me some time. But in the end I got there.

They really seem to hate healthy kids and people if they officially approve this as school food.

Just discovered this channel. Good man, apparently. I forgive his self-advertoizing at the end of his videos. I see no interest conflicts.

And one thing that was part of my "plan" since long time, but that I have doubled in eating rate: eggs. Over the past 12 months or so i have become a specialist for doing scrambled eggs in various ways (although my favourite version still is a very basic and simple one). Eggs are yummy! I have 3-4 a day.

How much cost eggs those days in Germany here is the price 8€/24?

It depends on the quality class. From 1.80 (factory farming) to 6.00 Euros (pasture raised) per 10 eggs. I try to buy organic when I can and keep the price below 4 Euros. In town these organic eggs ("Bio-Eier" in German) cost more than in supermarkets in smaller villages around. The cost difference can be up to 40% or so. I absolutely avoid eggs from caged chicken/factory farming.


Egg prices have gone steeply up in past 12 months.


People understimate the quality difference that comes from the food the hens eat. Not only is the egg hull thicker with healthier hens, but you get a positve change in several nutrient contents, Omega 3 for example. Animals are best fed with natural stuff they would find and eat all by themselves if they would live alone in the wild. Like salmon should not be fed with soy and wheat, hens should not be fed with soy either. I avoid factory farming when i can, means: as long as it is financially affordable. My price tolerance however has limits. I counerbalance the hgihers costs also by the fact that I do not spend money on many things that in many households are quite common to be eaten and to be had. Softdrinks for example.

Reasonably and logical explanation and I strongly support this context.
