@great-big-stees saidDrewnogal will be displeased with your attitude here Stees.
My GP told me that my “bad” cholesterol was a bit high and suggested that I should cut out certain things I enjoy in order to lower it. I said that I was unwilling to and he then suggested statins. I now continue to “enjoy” those same, enjoyable foods, and take statins, which do what they are supposed to ( keep the bad cholesterol in check). There comes a time in one’s life when one makes decisions that are not always the “best” but are the right ones for you.

We will almost have antigrav vehicles, but they will be bad for your health (somewhere between overuse of a tanning bed and sitting in a microwave oven).
Original Iron Chef will be remastered as an interactive VR experience.
Lotus Eaters will have an even greater variety of options to escape from mass-media manipulation.
Wage Slavery will continue out of spite, even after the rise of automation and A.I., and the declining need for humans to do anything at all.
The torching and razing of the world's rainforests and the death of the oceans will stimulate innovation and growth in the global economy.
It will become commonplace for ordinary citizens to own and operate both death drones and defenses against death drones, which will also stimulate the economy.
Eating meat will be criminalized. Meat eating will continue.
As warfare has progressed from material to economic and psychological, it will return to purely spiritual warfare as transhumanist early adopters go full quantum.
@moonbus saidI don't know, but does it matter? They can put formaldehyde it for all I care 🙂
@Great-Big-Stees
Does beer contain statins?
@shallow-blue saidI say animal protein as in any kind of meat produce, the kind that leaves a pool of fat around the frying pan or oven dish, the kind that’s sold at fast food outlets that people flock to at all hours of the day. The first one came to my Welsh town when I was around ten, when obese kids and adults were a rarity, the days when we ate meals that contained more veg than meat. Now you can’t find a town without a Burger King, McDonalds, KFC etc.
Yup, which is why veganism kills it. I don't know a single healthy vegan who wasn't already super-super healthy before he turned vegan, and only dropped to super-healthy. By contrast, all the "normal" vegans I know, and almost all "normal" vegetarians, have health problems that they blame on "unhealthy inorganic food" which I, natural omnivore, do not suffer from - surpr ...[text shortened]... uming a higher ratio of plant to animal protein.

As the Pikiwediasts say: Citation Needed.
I’d agree with you on the present poor quality of commercial vegan and vegetarian food too. The same places are now churning out the same fatty rubbish with a few beans in the mix and little evidence of anything resembling a vegetable in the mix. The best vegan / vegetarian food is more likely cooked at home by people who take an interest in nutrition for the sake of their health.
Yes, sugar/carbs play their part, helping the rise in obesity, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes; all lethal if a person already has raised cholesterol.
@divegeester saidOh I am 😠!

When he next comes to my home for tea he’ll be getting a sardine & avocado salad, vegetable chilli and yogurt with nuts and berries.
@drewnogal saidThat might stop him from coming. 🙂

@drewnogal said"When he next comes to my home for tea"? Maybe a beer, but I will enjoy the food offerings. They sound good. 🙂

@very-rusty saidOh no. Her prices are very reasonable. I think I get it at cost + 3%.
It may clean him out! 😉

@great-big-stees saidLOL...I didn't mean monetarily, the ingredients mentioned could act as a laxative. 😉

My daughter living in Brazil is veggie as well as her husband, she is working on her Phd in music, he already has one in physics, living in Natal. Veggies are easier to get there than in the US.
I eat meat but also a lot of fruit and veggies, spinach and such, olive oils and the like. I seem to be in good health at 78 so proof in the pudding.
@very-rusty saidNo worries there Rusty, a diet containing more veg, oily fish and yogurt leads to a healthier gut with a lack of constipation and it’s associated overflow and flatulence.

A bit like comparing an inoffensive, neat pile of horse manure to the disgusting squirt of mess a cat produces when fed cheap tinned food 🤢
