Redpill me on food /sci/ So we all know we should follow that

xenoestrogens are not harmful unless youre a developing fetus that receives abnormally high exposure

municipal water sources in the united states are potable excepting infrastructure failures

gmos arent innately harmful and nobody produces dangerous gmos; worry more about antibiotics in meat

i shop at both a large supermarket chain and a local food cooperative

>>8395830
>So we all know we should follow that oh so famous food pyramid

>>8395837
Yeah i'm about to switch to butchers meat and lowered meat consumption in general.
I try to know my sources, was'nt too sure though where it would be important to do so.

Thanks for your post anon.

Any suggestions on how to fix it?

gmos themselves aren't necessarily dangerous. the bigger problem is that the gmo foods were made that way to survive extremely dangerous chemicals that were sprayed on them. so gmos are indirectly REALLY bad

>>8396235
I've always about the chemicals being sprayed on food...
Its not like we could just wash the food properly to get it off right?
The chemicals get into the food itself because the plant is soaking up water in which the poison is contained, or am i wrong?

>>8396235
>the gmo foods were made that way to survive extremely dangerous chemicals that were sprayed on them

Glyphosate works by inhibiting the shikimic acid pathway for aromatic amino acid biosynthesis. Mammals do not have this pathway, and glyphosate has no observable effect on cholinesterases. The median lethal dose is higher than that of table salt http://pmep.cce.cornell.edu/profiles/extoxnet/dienochlor-glyphosate/glyphosate-ext.html
Its enviornmental fate has been extensively studied. It readily binds to soil and decomposes, although heavy storm runoff is a concern

Bt corn instead (partially) replaces the need for pesticides through expressing a protein toxic to insects and safe for anything with an acidic digestive tract (this protein is isolated and sprayed on crops in organic farming)

>>8396260
Pesticides on crops, when used as directed, do not present a health risk. Exposure levels are usually well below known safe thresholds. For example, eating a pile of cow shit may make you sick, but eating crops fertilized with it (as is common in organic farming) should not.
If safety wasn't a primary concern, we'd be using sarin, lmfao

Farming without any pesticides at all is just an open buffet for insects. It's a matter of developing safe, effective ones.

Not that i would know, yet i was able to use the pic in several instances.

your second mistake was asking /sci/

I dont really believe they wouldve given any better answers...

>>8395830
Eat real food only. This includes red meat, eggs, and white potatoes. This does not include refined carbohydrates and garbage oils.

Eat fucktonnes of vegetables, this is important

But why do they put industrial waste products in it for no apparent reason?

Organic is bullshit though. As a biochemist I hate the term "organic" food. Plastic is organic. Gasoline is organic. Drink up

By the way, "organic" according to the FDA doesn't mean pesticide free. copper sulfate is considered an "organic" pesticide, which is ironic becuase
1. It's not an organic molecule in the slightest
2. It's toxic to damn near everything

Organic is bullshit. Besides, as for herbicides, as >>8396279 mentioned, glyphosphate is nonlethal to humans and as for pesticides, organophosphates are indeed potent neurotoxins to most animals including humans, HOWEVER it decays rapidly and by the time the food arrives at the supermarket, it's long gone

>>8396218
50% vegetables
40% white meat
6% Nuts and Seeds
3% Fruit
1% Dairy (Optional)

3 L of water per day, 1 L of which is consumed after you first wake up.

This is the perfect diet.

>>8397847
>/sci/ is this fucking stupid

>>8397950
That sure is a lot of chickun you are eating there...
I dont exactly see how early humans would have evolved to be so dependent on white meat

>>8397950
>3 L of water per day, 1 L of which is consumed after you first wake up.
This seems like an awful lot of water, drinking 1L at once sounds pretty unhealthy too.

>>8397823
>your first mistake was assuming that ANYONE actually knew the answers

>>8397991
Maybe it's a bit much, but you should drink a lot of water when you wake up because it'll cause you to have to shit, and then drink a good amount at midday and then at night.

>>8397838
so it's a meme about a meme

>>8397973
Humans have eaten a lot of fish in their evolution. (I include that as white meat)

>>8397866
First, you're not a biochemist, but when and if you finish uni you might be, but considering your reasoning, the only thing you're cut out for is being a junk scientist.

>copper sulfate organic
You mean under the eCFR regs §205.601 "Synthetic substances allowed for use in organic crop production."

You really blew the doors off the hypocrisy!

> organophosphates
> long gone

Bullshit. They're still residual and even a modest exposure is detrimental.

If you do "earn" your stripes as a scientist one day, you'll whore yourself out for research dollars and when you don't get the result they expect, the good little cuck sciency you'll be, you'll change your result to please your cock lords. They'll jam their meat down your already raw and red pathetic throat, so you can continue your inconsequential research which will have no greater impact than toilet paper after the flush.

>>8395830
I don't believe there's a standardized diet to accommodate the metabolic rates of everyone. That said, the main contributor to epidemic obesity would be more so the lack of activity than what's in the food.

>>8397866
Rotenone is generally being phased out now, I believe, but remains an approved usda organic pesticide and is severely toxic to aquatic life.

>>8398187
>§205.601 "Synthetic substances allowed for use in organic crop production."
What is your point?
Copper sulfate is a pesticide, and it's use is allowed in organic farming. Clearly, "organic doesn't mean pesticide free" is an accurate statement.
Nor does it necessarily mean "safer," as above
>>organophosphates
>>long gone
>They're still residual and even a modest exposure is detrimental.
We can discuss the decomposition dynamics of various compounds, but I've already pointed out that glyphosate has no effect on cholinesterases so it's an "organophosphate" in a purely structural sense (just as ephedrine is an amphetamine) and the point is moot.
I agree though, you usually don't want to use organophosphates for *pest control.* Pyrethrins are often a safer option. What is practical depends on your specific geography and application, though.
