>>41515049
Yes it did. Rice gives you little calories and little nutrients(white) and it is a staple asian dish, so they dont get fat from it. Less calories consumed per day= no increase of fat.

they have evolved to eat lots of carbs and stay thin or at least thinner but they get fucked harder than whites if they get fat

>>41515047
To give a less retarded explanation, the nutritional value of rice, B vitamins and probably some other things, is mostly found in the outer bran layer (the part that makes it "brown") which is removed from white rice.

>>41515031
Carbs make you fat if you dont burn them off

Australian-Jap here (Born in Jap, raised in Aus, work in Jap), I eat a lot of white rice a day, but I also walk about 30kms total a day for my work. I burn a shitload of calories and the carbs keep me going. It's literally just calories in vs calories out but you wanna get a good macro ratio too.

In 2nd year of Grad school for Biochem. What is this?

As an okinawan guy, I have to say it's because of built-in portion control. Yeah, sure, we eat a lot of rice. But our portions are a lot smaller. It's really easy to feel full, and hard to overeat, because the "oh god this is too much food I've gotta stop or I'll vomit" urge kicks in very hard and very fast. I'll have like, a single egg over-easy on toast in the morning and be good until lunch.

On the downside, it means you have to force yourself to eat way beyond your comfort zone if you want to build any mass whatsoever.

>>41515883
Like i can understand if you meant glucosides or inhibitors, but that cant account for why asians (or even other people for that matter) dont get fat on their staple diet that theyve been eating for generations and generations.

The likely factors for asians eating rice and not being fat are prob due to metabolism of the general populace; rice is a pretty old crop.

But this kinda shits all anecdotal, theres plenty of fat asian fucks so your broscience makes as much sense as Chang taking my fucking Chinese order thru the phone.

>>41515418

Anything makes you fat if you don't burn it off.

>Reach maintenance calories for the day
>Eat 500 Calories worth of yogurt

If you don't burn it off, you will get fat if you do this every day.

I could eat 10,000 calories of protein and still lose fat. If I had 600 calories worth of twinkies and only that, I'm going to gain fat and lose muscle resulting in a net decrease of body mass.

>>41516208
>I could eat 10,000 calories of protein and still lose fat
You would convert the amino acids to glucose and then to lipid, or directly to lipid depending on which one it was, and then store them as fat, leading to a net gain of fat since you are not burning 10k calories

Carbs are no worse than other calorie sources for weight gain or loss though they do have a tendency to increase appetite when controlled against low carb diets.

The reason asians tend to be skinnier is down to a combination of factors including
>Less widely available food in general
>Less processed foods
>Less sugar
>Less other calorie dense foods
>More veg
>Better eating and dietary habits
>Less pervasive government food industry subsidy and dietary guidelines

In short, less mcdonalds & coca cola with more veg = less obesity

Maintain healthy levels of thyroid function.

Iodine deficiency is extremely common worldwide except in East and South-East Asian countries like Japan or the coastal parts of China and Taiwan due to their high consumption of seafood and seaweed-derived dishes and products. They have the healthiest thyroids in the world on average, minus some areas where goiter is spread, which are usually rural villages far away from the ocean and with no access to significant iodine sources.

Bear in mind that what big pharma considers to be a "healthy-level" of thyroid function is bullshit because the range is way too damn wide, and their RDA is very low due to a meme from the 1940's called the Wolff-Chaikoff effect, which is a purely fictional condition that was never observed in lab tests, not in lab rats or in humans, and it supposedly arises from a sustained iodine intake of over 200 mcg (a mere 1/60th of a lot of Asians are consuming on a daily average) over time, so they made their RDA so it's JUST ENOUGH to avoid hypothyroidism, and nowhere near enough to maintain a healthy thyroid. This is all ignoring the fact that Lugol's Solution (a solution of iodine, potassium iodide, and distilled water. Usually has like 1-5 mg of net iodine per drop) was widely used in the military before WWII to treat iodine deficiency, hypothyroidism, and even hyperthyroidism with flying colors.

Big Pharma benefits from this meme by selling patients and getting them hooked for life on the meme-drug thyroxine, instead of giving patients successful treatments like lugol's solution, aside from WC-effect, their other argument is "muh-radioactive iodine", which is actually harmful, but a healthy intake of potassium/potassium-iodide protects the thyroid from absorbing radioactive iodine.

In short, sort yourself out.
Become the archetypal hero.
Clean your room.
Take 12 mg of a solution of iodine+potassium iodide per day.

>>41521649
Not the guy you are replying to. I use iodized salt, but a teaspoon only covers like 17% of my RDA.

>>41516208
please stop, some people will take that stuff seriously

>>41521825
Iodized salt is also a Big Pharma meme, it covers nowhere near even the current bullshit RDA, let alone what your thyroid and other organs actually need to function. Iodized salt was introduced somewhere in the 1940's in the USA when a spread goiter was observed in the more rural areas of North America, and sure, it worked over time, but it was only just enough to treat goiter, and nowhere near enough to treat iodine deficiency.

There are dietary changes aside from taking iodine+potassium-iodide solutions (Lugol's solution is the generic term) that you can make, and that is raising and diversifying your seafood intake, and throwing seaweed in there too. Basically, you'd have to adopt a coastal-Asian-like diet to get the amount of iodine your body truly needs, along with potassium so that your thyroid is protected from radioactive iodine.

>Basically, you'd have to adopt a coastal-Asian-like diet to get the amount of iodine your body truly needs, along with potassium so that your thyroid is protected from radioactive iodine.
I hope you'll pardon the pun, but this claim seems awfully fishy. Why do humans require so much iodine if they evolved on the plains, presumably without access to the fish and seaweed you argue is necessary for the body to function properly? I don't put too much stock by arguments like the one I'm making in general, but it seems like a very bold claim to say that all diets except for a "coastal-Asian-like" diet are biologically incomplete.

>>41522457
The thyroid organ is actually inherited from when we were aquatic creatures and had a massive supply of iodine. As we evolved and moved to land, to compensate for the decrease in iodine sources, the thyroid gland evolved in suh a way that it could function on merely a fraction of our primal iodine intake. However, a functioning thyroid and a healthy thyroid functioning to its true capacity are not the same thing, and its hard to tell what the difference between the two are when you're living an iodine-deficient society, and without coverage on the diets and health of non-iodine deficient societies. Your thyroid and other organs can function on as little as 150 - 200 mcg (current RDA), but on the healthy-level it should truly be at. What doctors are pushing is that as long as your intake is just high enough to avoid hypo/hyperthyroidism you should be good, but it doesn't take into account iodine deficiency, as the two conditions are not mutually exclusive, you don't have to be suffering from a thyroid condition to be iodine-deficient.

Throw that shit in a pan with some olive oil and a little bit of water, cover it for a minute to soften it a bit, and add some salt and pepper for taste. Its a beautiful replacement to stay keep carbs low.

Don't really have any recipes because I just use it in place of rice, so whatever you rice for use it instead. Delicious in stuffed peppers however.

Very true, memetic supplements like kelp for example, just provide 150-200 mcg of iodine, they're suggested to patients who show symptoms of hypothyroidism but aren't quite there. In the end, they'll still get hypothyroidism, and they wasted money over a meme. Lugol's solution however is legit because the iodine/potassium-iodide is so high in comparison and is more in line with what we should be consuming.
