Reputation from Geezy - Carnivore Talk

Geezy got a reaction from jr1776 in Your uncommon good habits? October 22Oct 22

Interesting subject.
I guess a couple of things that I do might be uncommon in the community are not near as uncommon as yours but I’ll play.
First off, I raise or hunt as much as 95% of the food I eat. We raise goats, cattle, sheep and chickens. I hunt deer, pigs, birds and fish a lot. We have a small far and are very self sufficient. I also eat many organ meats from those animals that most in the community don’t eat
Another thing is i rarely use deodorant and when i do it’s a very clean and natural product. I have found that since becoming a carnivore I just don’t have BO like I used too as long as I take a shower every day. I use natural soaps whenever I can and avoid those that have a bunch of chemicals in them. I’ve recently met a woman in my area who makes soap and I’m going to ask her to teach me how.
I enjoy a pioneering lifestyle where I make much of what we take for granted. I make my own yogurt, bacon, ham and tallow. I’m always looking for ways to go back to the old style of doing things.

Geezy reacted to Scott F. in weekend weight loss October 22Oct 22

I started off north of 320 and got down to 211 but at 211 I felt like I lost some strength in the gym as well as the energy was there, just not the same. Probably not the same amount of energy, not reduction enough to launch red flags, but 211 didn't feel as good as 220 or so.
Several months ago, I attempted to increase my protein intake to hit certain targets. I re-introduced some sugar (by accident) and found it triggered my appetite. I hit the targets most of the time and before I knew it, I went from that 211 to the mid to upper 230's. The strength actually increased and the energy level returned.
After a month or so I settled in the upper 220's.
This past weekend I rode side by sides in West Virginia. I pre-made my meals and not intentionally but it turned out to be strict carnivore. No dairy. no sauces or rubs, just meat, salt and water from Thursday til Sunday. On Monday morning I had lost nearly six pounds from Thursday morning.
On Monday I started drinking milk again, used some sauce on a steak and snacked on butter a couple three times per day.
Before you know it, picked up a couple pounds as quick this week as I dropped it last week.
It feels pretty good to know I have control of the dial to drive my own weight/health.

In search of a path out of a soggy, mud filled bottom my buddy was backing up and slipped of an embankment.
Just about two hours later we had him on all fours and ready to ride again.

Just one small serving of ultra-processed food a day linked to higher disease risk, major study finds
Story by Deirdre Bardolf

Just an extra 3.5 ounces of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) a day was linked to a higher risk of chronic disease, according to a new large-scale analysis.
The study, published Sept. 22 in the journal Family Medicine and Community Health, looked at nearly 8.8 million adults who participated in studies across the Americas, Europe, Asia and Oceania, with follow-up periods ranging from two to 32 years.
For every additional 100 grams of UPFs consumed daily, researchers found an association with a 14% higher risk of cardiovascular events, a 4% higher risk of cancer, a 3% higher risk of death from any cause and a 2% higher risk of metabolic syndrome or diabetes, according to a news release.
UPFs are typically packaged and convenient, made through extensive industrial processing and often packed with additives. They can include sugary drinks, processed meats, packaged snacks and candy. One hundred grams is about the size of a 3.5-ounce bag of corn chips, a small box of candy or a single-serve cup of mini cookies.

People with the highest intake of UPFs also had higher risks of digestive diseases, depression or anxiety, obesity, cancer and cardiovascular events than those with the lowest intake of the foods.

"Given that UPF-related chronic diseases often cluster as multimorbidity, reducing consumption of UPFs and replacing them with minimally processed alternatives may be relevant for chronic disease prevention and primary care management," the researchers, led by Xiao Liu, a cardiologist at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital in China and a research fellow at Duke-NUS Medical School in Singapore, wrote.
These types of foods tend to crowd out healthier, nutrient-dense options, according to Kelly Springer, a New York-based registered dietitian and founder of Kelly's Choice.
"It's not that you can never eat them again," Springer, who was not involved in the research, told Fox News Digital. "It's the fact that we are not getting real foods — real foods like fruits, vegetables, beans, nuts, whole grains."

Rather than focusing on taking foods away, Springer recommended adding protein and fiber to meals and snacks. She suggested options such as an apple with peanut butter, nuts with cucumbers, or meals built around beans, chicken or tuna alongside fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
"A diet built around whole, minimally processed foods is one of the best investments we can make in our long-term health," she added.
Springer noted that the study was observational, so it cannot establish that UPFs directly caused the poor health outcomes.
It also relied on participants' self-reported diets and may not be able to account for other lifestyle factors.
Nonetheless, the study can teach people about the link between ultra-processed foods and chronic disease, Springer said.

I haven’t. Didn’t know it was a thing. I’d try it though.

It’s exactly what it sounds like. It’s the belly of the fish. Large catfish like that have big belly’s where there’s a good deal of meat.
