Hey /fit/ which culture has the healthiest food?

>>35335190
asian

>>35335202
I dunno, they eat a lot of fish. That can't be very good for you. Even eating the smaller fishies is bad if you eat it every day or multiple times a day.
Other than that yes, they focus on well balanced meals.

I am argentinian, our food is 100% meat.

Sarcasm? Idk, I'm just legit curious, I don't want this to turn /pol/ in /fit/ but, just wondered, since I'm from Colombia, and all they eat is meat and rice.

If you eat nothing but conbini bento maybe. If you're talking cooked food it's pretty standard composition to my knowledge.

niqqa have you ever actually been to Tokyo? Sushi restaurants are about as common as they are in Western countries. Processed ramen noodles and filthy F-grade meat gyoza's are the most common foods. Fruit and veg that aren't pickled are also extremely rare and ridiculously expensive in Japan. Jap food being healthy is a myth exacerbated by people who haven't spent much time in Nippon.

>>35335258
then don't use soy. asian meals are more balanced. I highly doubt "high carb" in asian cultures even comes close to America's standard of 300g of carbs, which is retardedly high.

what about nonfat greek yogurt?
that shit is basically liquid protein.

also Mediterranean diets are highly sea-food oriented (living on the coast of a sea and all)

nigger you guys eat pure fucking seal oil and whale fat.

muktuk is not good for gains, it is good for extreme survival in arctic conditions.

that is why all inuits are DYEL and lack any athletes that don't compete in the shit-tier native games which are easy as piss (Which is why even the record-setting native game athletes are DYEL as fuck)

>I highly doubt "high carb" in asian cultures even comes close to America's standard of 300g of carbs, which is retardedly high.

300g carbs isn't high at all. It's not uncommon for asians to eat 500g+ carbs a day. That's how most of the eastern and developing world eat.

Carbs aren't what is peculiar about the American diet. It's the huge amounts of fat that Americans eat that sticks out.

Japanese might eat a bowl of steamed rice with some vegetables, natto, soy sauce, and a bit of fish. Americans would eat a bowl of rice that's been fried in oil or butter, with pork and eggs mixed into it.

That because they all smoke

>>35335904
Holy shit, I didn't know they ate that much. I basically have meat and veggies every meal with or without rice and I rarely get even close to 200g

asian food is very healthy, but not a very "fit" food. they utilize plenty of healthy ingredients, but are heavily lacking in protein. i grew up on a mixture of my parents' cooking and fast food, and ended up being very skinny-fat. maybe it was just my family, but i think most asian cuisine consists of too many carbs. the soy is okay, i'm not sure how much that affects your body chemistry, but i know endless carbs can't be good for you.

Depends what you mean by "healthy". Turns out India, or other designated shitting streets countries have really low risk of developing colorectal cancers when copared to civilised countries, that eat sterilized, clean food. So there's a lot of factors to take into account.

Growth hormones in their meat.

>they eat a lot of fish. That can't be very good for you

What? Unless it's the western shitty genetically modified inbred salmon, it's great.

I think thai food is GOAT. Chicken/fish chilis, herbs, coconut, fruits, veggies and rice.

What you want is veggies and some lean meat. Asia does it best. But it has to be fresh and natural

Thai food is filled with enormous amounts of sugar and rice. The chicken on the side are great, but not goat.

>>35336300
Don't knock it until you've tried it. It's actually pretty good.

>>35337509
That's only a problem with certain fish, like tuna

i think you are of the mistaken belief that asian food is whatever slop they serve in the average chinese takeout resturaunt in america or other western countries

>>35337509
>>35337558

And nobody catches a fucking tuna by accident. I'm talking about real fish that your local fisherman catches in a longtail boat with a net, not that bb meme fish

Mid year nutrition student, overall consensus is anything Mediterranean. Plenty of real cheeses, oils, lean meats, vegetables, nuts and seeds, wine, whole grains. The whole "excess fat is bad" is a myth IF you're I take is mostly mono-polyunsaturated fats.

>>35335802
What I think is funny is that people will see the fried food and automatically count it as unhealthy, even though in moderation it's just foods cooked with grains in an oil(which could be healthy depending on the choice of oil)

>>35335933
Is natto natty?

>>35338483

Like this video points out >>35335697, the mediterranean diet that we associate with health and longevity really doesn't have much cheese or meat of any kind. Meat once every week or two, dairy very sparingly, meals made of mostly (93%) whole grains, wild greens, beans, nuts, and fruits.

>>35335493
This
Lots of fish and veggies
