Firstly the average South East Asian probably doesn't eat the fast food versions of their particular countries food every day.

Secondly, athletic/aesthetic South East Asians probably eat a cleaner diet closer to what a western bodybuilder or athlete might.

Thx for your link.

>>41076097
I like that you said "salt" twice.

>>41076097

Salt has no bearing on your fitness levels you brainless bitch.

Unless you have a condition or take insane amounts and not drink water.

Go watch a layne norton vid

>>41076097
South east asian here, no we're not /fit/. Majority of us that indulge in our local food without having exercise get really fat at some point. Althoughit doesn't reach hamplanet level but majority of older people in their late 20's and above is barrel shaped.
The only good thing about our food is its damn easy to bulk.

Are people on top considered white in America?

>>41076225

>implying your shitty asian takeout is at all similar to an actual typical asian meal

>>41076851
Not quite white enough.

>>41076097
asian food is healthy as fuck. You must be the kind of guy that doesn't eat fruit because they have sugars or just trolling

Whitey can't cook so they can't show all their mcdonalds receipts in the pic

>>41076225
What Japanese people tend to actually eat regularly is unhealthy in its own obscenely stupid way even if it's a step up above Amerifats.

Doesn't look that bad, if generally depressing.
I'd gather the unhealthy workaholic lifestyle and smoking is what does them in.

I'm east asian I eat that shit in your picture and it's not salty.

If you are buying it from asian restaurants yeah it's saltier to appease the western people usually. Asian food home cooked is not very salty, same shit just less salt.

>>41078006
Also might want to add it's more about rice and noodles being too many carbs a lot of east asians have a lot of rice and noodles to their meat which is yeah.

>>41078058
Home made lo mein is god tier if you just go with a higher ratio of meat to noodles than what you would get from a take out

If a take out place doubled the meat I'd be totally ok paying extra $$$ given the option

salt makes you fat? i thought it was sugar?

Genetics, I had a 120lbs Chinese kid in my group of friends in HS and he ate nothing but candy and deep fried chinese food(His parents owned a restaurant) on break and lunch.

>>41076097
lo mein is chinese AMERICAN shit

lmfao are you gonna tell me that crab rangoons are authentic asian cuisine too?

>>41076097
>salty AND high in sodium

damn, was it also savory?

>>41076097
It's a white people make assumptions of peoples eating habits from shitty fast food they get in their shitholes

>>41078784

It's at least partially true, though. The main sauces like soy sauce tend to be very high in salt

>>41077133
>Whitey can't cook
Is that a US thing?

im asian i eat like shit and still have low af body fat
>at least 2 times a week i grab kfc

>>41077993
Well they eat better than females do ironically. The smoking and drinking a lot is what kills them, on top for that they overwork themselves.

>>41078789
Then just use Tamari with reduced salt. It exists out in the wild.

>>41078784

Don't forget the highly efficient manner in which everything is stacked and presented.

Yea, sure...

If your intake is consistent day to day and you maintain a good ratio with your other electrolytes you can consume a lot more salt than you think

Not only will you not get bloated, but it actually increases performance

On another note constant low sodium actually retards muscle growth

Read this, its a bit shit but it explains the basics well

what the fuck reddit?

>>41076097
Portion control.

>>41080634
This. The anon that showed the images with japanese breakfasts, if you take a look. All of the breakfasts are small portions. Like a single pancake with 6 oz of Orange juice, no more. A small bowl of rice with some protein.

>As a matter of fact, only 10% of hypertension cases have a known cause, and in almost all of these cases, the cause was either genetic or stress related.
Oh, I guess that's why the DASH diet, despite it treating nearly all cases of hypertension, is such a failure for people who have hypertension! Makes perfect fucking sense.

>high performance athlete
/fit/ is not full of high performance athletes. High performance athletes need it because they lose a shit ton of it during their activities. Just replacing the sweat with water can lead to hyponatremia which can be fatal. Most bodybuilders do not fit this category: who does is marathoners, ultrarunners, cyclist, and swimmers. You know: the heavy endurance athletes.

This article is loaded with bad information that can get someone killed.

>>41076097
On the subject of South East Asia. Im going to Thailand in June. Can you buy juice at normal pharmacys there?

>>41080625

T-nation is alright, it atleast puts sources for its articles.

>>41076097
I'm poor currently, so I looked in to the Mongolian diet.
It is quite literally a gallon of milk per day, plus red meat with a few vegetables.
Would recommend.

>>41080743
Sources which they only read the abstract.

>>41076362
There are other sources for sodium than salt. Like sodium glutamates. Which are frequently used in chinese restaurants.

>>41077133
that's because white people don't fucking have kids.
