rose the DIASS to

DIAAS

DIAAS recommends using pigs for the reference readings as their GI tract more closely matches humans then other animals.

As our understanding of plant-based nutrition has improved however, it has become increasingly apparent that emphasizing protein quality in developed nations is unproductive, influencing food selection with irrelevant metrics rather than more important dietary factors and truly prevalent nutritional shortcomings (i.e., fiber). Pervasive use of DIAAS and food selection based on this score is thus futile at best and harmful at worst.

As far as published opinions go, this is a wild one, the opinion cites other opinions for it’s basis, and recommends PDCAAS (rat based) because it’s more favorable to the conclusion the author wants. It’s a really strong, and totally unjustified statement, to say that fibre is a more important nutrient then protein. (people will die without protein, but they wont die without fibre)

not to mention the admitted conflicts

Does gout come from consuming animal products? Hmm, I hadn’t heard that, before.

Opposite actually - fructose intake, alcohol intake (same pathway as fructose in liver), advanced glycation end products (glucose intake) are the major drivers of gout.

https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-821617-0.00004-8 Section 7.3 if you would like to know more (overwhelmingly so) - it’s available on the normal 🦜 sites.

Basically the old connection that meat can drive uric acid a bit and uric acid is a component of gout isn’t actually helpful, during a active flare up avoiding meat can help reduce uric acid levels a tiny bit but it does nothing to address the systemic cause of the gout in the first place. i.e. Watermelons have a high water content but are not causal in drownings, but avoid eating watermelons while actively drowning… same thing

It’s mutual something, apparently understanding statistics and calling out the weaknesses of epidemiology is “science illiteracy”.

I feel this comment in my bones. Now it’s weird if I don’t feel sore.

In reality, even if a person is addicted to burgers like a drug addict, they could easily buy plant-based burger patties that taste really similar to regular ones and make their own burgers.

Nobody is addicted to all beef patty. The addiction comes from the stuff around the hamburger patty, the sauces, the buns, the french fries. That drives carbohydrate spikes, driving insulin spikes, driving carbohydrate Lows, driving hunger. It is a pernicious addiction cycle, but the meat is not doing it it’s everything else around it.

That’s a great question. I don’t know the lifespan of ketones. But their energy delivery units, so they don’t stay in the body terribly long. They either get recycled or reused or excreted.

I can’t imagine it would be longer than a 3-month lifespan.

Update: ketones are completely consumed on use, there are no leftovers. So ketones have a very limited life, minutes if not hours.

Imagine if he had some ketones…

Because censorship of topical newsworthy events is antithetical to freedom. Sure first the censorship will start with “gruesome” but it won’t stop there, let people opt out, but it shouldn’t be scrubbed from existence.

Ketones provide a better source of power that isnt dependent on functional insulin signaling (which most people don’t have)

Neat. Thank you!

The lemmy.ca server blocks some VPN endpoints.

This sounds amazing. I wish Lemmy CA didn’t block image loading over VPNs so I could see it.

Awareness!

Now if someone is coughing on the train and I hand them a brand new facemask they put it on without any comment, maybe a thank you.

Precovid… That wasn’t going to happen

FWIW the meat itself isn’t unhealthy, its all the oils and sauces that accompany the meat the impact overall health.

Haha. All my purchases are impulse buys!

Any system is imperfect, that means some people in prison must be innocent, that means crimes are being inflicted against innocent people.

Before we try to manage the entire population at large, let’s just eliminate crime in prisons and jails. That’s a controlled environment, but it’s rife with crime. If we can’t fix a controlled environment, how can we possibly fix an open environment?

Using the drones for a led based video display just makes sense but I was still surprised when they did it.

I wonder how they plan out the movements?

I haven’t tested this myself, but I think the multiple users on Android would all have their own separate USB mass storage device areas. So if you switch to user b, attach the computer, allow on the phone the mounting. It’s user B’s files that get shown not user A’s
