cholesterol based hormones.gif

>>42251933
I don't know much, so take it as just what I think.
There are a lot of hormones that are made from cholesterol (testosterone included). I know that the liver can produce some cholesterol when needed, but with this kind of diet it will be forced to metabolize sucrose and glucose a lot more than normal. So you risk overloading it.
Another aspect would be insulin, which will be continuously elevated, as all these foods have a high glycemic index and load. High insulin means low HGH, and low leptin.
But again, this is my understanding, I encourage you to learn from better sources than fit, if you really want to know what's up.
>>
>>42252011
Animal fat is more dangerous for diabetics than a bit of sucrose and glucose actually. But I really appreciate you acknowledging that you aren't an expert and for people to not take your word for it. Not being sarcastic, genuinely appreciate it. A rare and honorable trait.
>>
>>42252011
>There are a lot of hormones that are made from cholesterol (testosterone included). I know that the liver can produce some cholesterol when needed
At least you seem to be subtly admitting that dietary cholesterol DOES increase serum cholesterol, that's an excellent start
>but with this kind of diet it will be forced to metabolize sucrose and glucose a lot more than normal
Define "this kind of diet". Everyone and their mother eats rice and pasta unless on keto
And I'd argue that nuts, whole grains (oats, whole wheat pasta etc) and greens are pretty low in sugars
>Another aspect would be insulin, which will be continuously elevated, as all these foods have a high glycemic index and load. High insulin means low HGH, and low leptin.
Pretty sure beans, greens, nuts and soy products are really low on GI
Also pretty sure that easily digestible protein like whey and chicken breast is literally as high as sugar on the GI

>subtly admitting that dietary cholesterol DOES increase serum cholesterol
I realize I've been unclear in what I've said previously. I don't think dietary increases serum cholesterol, but I do think that saturated fats do increase it. And saturated fats are very rare in a vegan diet.
As for your other points, you are right that green vegetables (lettuce, crucifers, spinach), nuts (except cashews) and soy beans are low sugar and low GI. But starchy grains are very sugar dense. Starch is basically glucose mollecules chained together, and they are very easily broken down early in digestion.
A list of glycemic indices:
glucose: 100
table sugar: 63
whey: technically 0, but it is insulinogenic
chicken breast: <15
beef: 0
beans: 40-60 (depending on cooking)
rice: 90
peas: 50
soy beans: 15-20
soy milk: ~40

>I don't think dietary increases serum cholesterol
It doesn't matter what you think, what matters is the science.
The studies vegans will show you prove that blood cholesterol is raised by dietary cholesterol, the chaosandpain crowd will disagree. But here's the catch: Literally every study that denies the link between dietary and serum cholesterol is poorly designed. They do not take into account the fact that if your blood cholesterol is already high that eating more cholesterol won't increase it further, whereas having normal cholesterol (50-70) will be affected greatly even by a single egg
Another trick they employ in their studies is timing. They have the subjects' cholesterol measured fasted in the morning, they eat a high cholesterol meal at night and measure their cholesterol again next morning. The facade of honest, well designed research is that they measured both the before and the after during the same times of the day, but the dishonesty lies in the fact that a lot of time passed between the meal and the measuring time. Studies measuring cholesterol immediately before and shortly after eating eggs show a huge spike in blood cholesterol.

I'd like sources for the table at the bottom of your post, I really doubt that beans are literally as high GI as sugar. REALLY doubt it.

Furthermore, a more honest analysis would look at how insulinogenic a food item is, not how high GI it is.

Reminder that cholesterol level doesn't mean shit and poorly relate to heart health. A better one is HDL level which is closely related to coronary heart diseases. HDL is not addected by any kind of diet. You should just not be fat (have a good fat%) and not be a potato couch. Everything else is bullshit.

I would need to go into those studies and check their methodology. And when I find the things you mention, I would agree with your points, but when I would find a fairer methodology (by your criteria), we would have to debate about some other minutiae.
And anyway, it's not like our positions are that different here. You say dietary cholesterol raises blood cholesterol, I say saturated fats raise it. Those kinda go hand in hand. I'm not aware of any food that has zero cholesterol but has high sat fats, or the opposite. It would take a very specific study to convince me, something like feeding of the same amount of cholesterol, but different amounts of sat fats, and then the other way around, with measuring of blood cholesterol as a tracker.
So it's not that your argument doesn't make sense, or wasn't good enough, it's that I would need to do a lot of digging to check it, and all for not much of a difference in the end.

It's so easy. Just do it and you'll see. Here:

I went vegan overnight after watching www.meat.org and I think doing it overnight is definitely the best way to do it. It's fun trying all the new foods and you never look back once you realize how fucking good it tastes and how easy it is. It's just a shift in consciousness I guess. Once you stop seeing animal products as food, you don't think of yourself as restricted at all. Especially when stuff like Gardein exists.

Vegans are pure COPE. The mental gymnastics are amazing. So one guy just asks "If veganism is superior, why don't all serious atheletes switch to it ?". A simple question. But watch in wonder as vegans distort the very definition of "health" itself to fit their shitty ideology. Wonderful. It is a cult at this point, and I am convinced that vegans are mentally ill much like obese people.

"When you eat eggs, you aren't eating LDL or HDL. You are eating dietary cholesterol, saturated fat, plus a wholee host of fat soluble vitamins (A, D, E,K), omega 3 fatty acids, choline, and numerous other helpful vitamins. It is your body that produces LDL and HDL from what you eat. In general, eggs can increase your HDL and can also minimally increase your LDL. But the more important question is do they increase your risk for heart disease and stroke? We don’t die from high cholesterol. We die from heart attacks and strokes, so in the end, that is what we need to prevent.

It turns out, for the general population, there is no solid evidence that eggs increase our cardiovascular risk."

Even if you ignore cholesterol and sat fats (which you shouldn't), tofu is still the better choice. Unless you want sulfur farts instead of gains of course

Wow. Well then he's full natty for sure, no doubt.

You're just asserting that dietary cholesterol and sat fats are this horrible thing. It's dumb and dishonest, but I suspect you're just parroting crap other vegans have told you. Breastmilk is full of saturated fat.

Tofu is garbage food, its bioavailability is only 64, compared to eggs and most meats around 100. It's just processed soy, basically junk food. And they market it to vegan retards because they can make some crazy markups on it.

A month ago. Been vegan exactly for a month today and not regretting it. Still making natty gains and gaining weight and muscle mass

Just eat 2 steaks and a half. They tasted great

So do vegans hate muslims?

>>42255557
>those studies

you didn't refute any of my points, eggs are good for you. I actually think a vegetarian/vegan diet is great for most people, but I'm not eating what most people eat. I am on /fit/, obivously im controlling my calories, eating sufficient fibre, eating high protein etc etc etc.


eggs are a great source of nutrients, end of

What kind of question is this? Being vegan doesn't dictate whether you hate Muslims or not.

Me and VG hate Islam though.

Yes

No, you just dislike it because it means you'd have to give up your delicious eggs

Are you blind? I provided nutritional information and peer reviewed research
>Breastmilk is full of saturated fat
Yes, and?
>Tofu is garbage food
Wrong
>its bioavailability is only 64 compared to eggs and most meats around 100
Now that's dishonesty. Source or fuck off.
>It's just processed soy, basically junk food.
That's not true at all. Here is how tofu is made:
"Tofu is a soybean product … it’s made from the curds of soymilk (so it’s kind of similar to cheese, just using soy milk as a base rather than milk). Those curds are pressed into blocks and can be made into different textures.
Soy milk is ... produced by soaking dried soybeans and grinding them in water"
That's like saying that puttina a banana and berries in the freezer and then blending the fruit with water is a processed food and basically garbage

anybody notice how ppl become vegan for one month. then act experts on health and nutrition. while forgetting to mention prior to this they spent decades eating "disgusting" meat

I fail to see the problem. Vegans often talk openly how they used to eat loads of meat, eggs and dairy in the past but made the switch to a vegan diet for a variety of reasons. It's not something to hide.

It's the allegory of the cave. One day you'll wake up and see that you lived your entire life the wrong way. The ultimate redpill

The picture here >>42255635 shows that tofu is better than eggs

If you really can't see how eggs are a bad food choice from every conceivable aspect I can't help you. But this is /fit/, not /muh taste buds/

This is my issue. They are not.

They also raise HDL, the "good" cholesterol

>yep, LDL. again. yawn.

okay, I mean, it isn't. But even if it was, which it isn't, that doesn't make eggs bad.

lets be serious, you don't like animal products. Thats the issue you have. Eggs are a great food for everyone else, stop being a faggot

Anon, there must be something wrong with your link. I ctrl+F'ed "vegan" and got 0/0. Could it be because you're a fucking retard?
It is literally impossible to be iodine deficient unless you stop using salt
>>
>>42258278
You need 5g of iodine fortified salt each day to get 200mcg of it. Do you really think vegans consume that much? Rekt.
>>
>>42252037

this crosses the line, this is the kind of shit that kills people. I'm from the land of hipsters so I have seen meme vegan diets since high school in the early 00s and have seen first hand the damaging long term effects of it both on body and mind. A healthy diet consists of a good balance between healthy whole foods and unprocessed meats.

You can meme all you want but I've known two people who thought they could cure cancer with raw veganism and black salve instead of chemo and they're both dead now.

Don't give shit advice to people with actual health problems if you're a defective unoriginal zealot.

No serious vegan would recommend that. Veganism and pseudoscience are often wrongly conflated.
>>42258356
...yes?

>>42258465

>No serious vegan would recommend that. Veganism and pseudoscience are often wrongly conflated.

Wrong, they are literally the same thing. If you think differently you need to be put on antipsychotic drugs. You're just on the bandwagon, child.
>>
>>42258465
>...yes?
What would you say to people who have to restrict their salt intake because they tend to develop high blood pressure? 5g of table salt, fortified or not, is kinda impossible to reach for these peeps.
>>
>>42258487
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're shitposting, not this retarded
>>42258534
Potatoes, some berries etc. Don't remember everything by heart but literally just Google "vegan sources of iodine".
It's 2017, this is easy
>>
>>42258737
>Potatoes, some berries etc.
This very much depends on quality of soil. My local sources give single digits or 10s mcg iodine for the things you listed. There's no consistency in iodine content when talking about plant sources picked up from the ground. You either need to eat stuff from the see (Seaweed & Fish) or consume fortified food. Your advice is not as good as you might think.
>>
>>42258848
Okay did some googling
First, the recommended iodine intake is 150 μg, not 200
Second, I don't know where you got the single digit number, every source I looked at say that 3 potatoes a day have you more than covered, with literally zero salt. One medium potato sits at 60 μg, 40% RDA.
Third, one and a half ounces of cranberries cover you, without salt or potatoes (an ounce gives 100 μg)
So far you have been extremely dishonest. Nobody eats meat because iodine. Just admit your only excuse is taste.
Fourth, mate, you are moving the goalposts here. Do you have a blood pressure problem? If no, then you can eat salt and the iodine deficiency is an excuse.
