So is there a consensus on what exactly you should eat if you want to be healthy?

Or are there so many different nutrients and factors that a layperson couldn't follow a diet like this so the best bet is to just use common sense?

1) Eat whatever the fuck you want whenever you're hungry
2) Get variety and don't constantly eat the same thing
3) Only eat when you're hungry (once or twice a day)
>>
Eat a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables. Spice your food with spices and herbs. Eat a lot of "natural" food, as example rice and legumes instead pasta and pizza. Prefer old varieties (vegetables, wheat..), new ones are often overbred and their nutrient profile is out of balance. Become pescetarian or vegetarian. But also eat the things you love, even if they are considered unhealthy. That is just my view, i dont know if there is a consensus.

>>
>>8331139
It does, Hamilton's principle not only does recover all of classical mechanics but it is also one of the best examples of determinism to me, and I personally have a huge "belief" in determinism

I'm a graduate student and it seems like the only way to balance the grueling work that occupies two thirds of my life is with alcohol, amphetamines, xanax and klonopin for the come down, ambien for sleep insomnia, and the occasional opiates/opioids to relax.

I don't smoke weed. I used to smoke as an undergrad and at parties, but i grew out of that by senior year.
At most, I smoke 1-2 times a year when my older brother in law who works as a teacher comes to visit.

I am getting my masters degree in biochemistry. Among me peers, going out for drinks seems to be a pretty common thing.

I often join them and it's a great way to decompress. I'm beginning to question whether I decompress in a different way.

At the same time, I am doing well and what i do has never presented a problem. In the back of my mind, I'd still like to ask them if they do these things also or if they'd want to join me instead of always heading out for drinks.

Please, do any of you have any advice or have gone through a similar situation?

I like to smoke weed and won't turn down a drink; having said that I definitely don't drink or do as many drugs as I did as an undergrad. I just don't have the time.

>I'd still like to ask them if they do these things also or if they'd want to join me instead of always heading out for drinks.

who knows, I understand your apprehension. I wouldn't feel comfortable asking the people that I study with if they wanted to come and get high with me. Seems like a way to get a quick reputation in the faculty and besides most are older than me and overwhelmingly south east asian.

>tfw don't know how to approach the qt3.14 geneticist I share a cell culture lab with.
I'm getting pretty good vibes from her but I can't think of anything I could ask her out for other than getting high. I'm pretty sure she doesn't even drink.

nothing; no alcohol, no weed, no tobacco, no opiates, nothing

So your advice is to be the wet blanket at all times, even when invited by phd's running the lab or people who are very accomplished and that I recognize are wiser and go as far as to mentor me?

You are attempting to be witty, however if I refuse to offer you the benefit of the doubt; you are rather uncouth. I cannot imagine a more disrespectful exchange, nor would you find anyone in agreement besides one or more cronies. If the world was just, and I am sure it isn't in relation to what you've discovered in your own life, that all you can do is to be the worst of the worst while making sure that everyone suffers as you

MSG itself is the salt of glutamic acid, literally a constituent of all protein. Free glutamic acid is highly abundant in cheese, meat, tomatos, anything that tastes savory. It wouldn't make any sense to say it's bad for you. It's like saying fucking Vegemite causes brain damage. MSG is in loads of foods that we eat every day.

The whole stupid idea of it being bad is that MSG is the free glutamate and not the protein glutamate, so it is absorbed quickly in our gastrointestinal tract, and it will overload your neurons and cause cell death. That's the basic idea. If this was true, it would literally mean that Marmite, Vegemite, Parmesan cheese, soy sauce etc.. would all cause brain damage as they contain high amounts of free glutamate. This was measured:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7119898

and was shot own over 30 years ago.

It was tested again by the EU

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16957679

These guys were basically fed MSG every day for one month straight and nothing happened to them.

Free glutamate naturally occurring in the foods you eat, and MSG that is added, is digested and responded to in the exact same way in your body. The MSG toxicity thing is just an easy out for """health""" bloggers and such to sell their books piecing together botched studies and such. This is the same story for just about every health food scaremongering thing.

When you eat MSG, your intestines use most of it as energy to work the intestine. Very little of it even reaches the blood stream.

The big study that every health idiot cites is a study where they injected neonatal mice with so much MSG that we humans wouldn't even be able to physically eat it without becoming nauseous. It's just such a joke of a myth. Breast milk for fucks sake has naturally occurring high levels of glutamate as babies need it for their intestinal health. I hate these health blogger pieces of shit that twist things for their own monetary gain. absolutely against science.

Never forget how lucky you are. You were born with high IQs, and the ability to comprehend the most beautiful subject. You won the genetic lottery.
