So recently it seems there's been a rise in the mention

Read the /fit/ sticky. They really know their health diets.

cba posting sources but ill speak from both experience and being read up on this subject.

no carbs/mainly fat - really good for losing body fat fast, without being insanely hard to go through. Trans fats and such are unhealthy.

pure vegan - you'll need b12 supplements otherwise your nervous system will get damaged. seems to work pretty good

Getting all macros isnt necessary, but sure helps you with life quality overall. (exercise is rly important for that)

I think the best way to go if you wanna be all healthy is not to eat sugars, not to binge on carbs and fasting once every month or so. And dont forget exercising.

Macros aren't everything.

If your protein source doesn't contain a full range of amino acids, then it doesn't matter how much protein you eat.

If you are eating fats with a certain chain length or certain types of atomic bonds between the carbons, than it vastly changes how your body will respond to them.

i wish to hear more about that last stuff

If you want to become healthy, I would recommend:

>Drinking more water
>Cut out sugar and processed foods
>Eat a wide variety of vegtables, nuts, fruits, meats, etc.
>Exercise more

That is pretty much it.

look up saturated and unsaturated fats

the body needs fats for cell walls and hormone production, but some types will just clog your arteries.

here's the one weird trick the diet industry doesn't want you to know:

if you remove dextrose from your diet you will lose all the weight, and can eat whatever you want (as long as it isn't dextrose).

dextrose is disgusting in the quantities a typical american eats anyway. most other americans love the stuff, and that's fine, they can eat whatever they want, but for me, i just think it's too sweet to taste good. it just overloads my tastebuds. i guess i'm just unique.

OP, don't listen to what anyone else tells you, including me. Most nutrition advice is stupid. Go to the literature if you want to verify this. Don't go to blogs, don't go to popular media.

Nutrition is really easy if you just want to maintain your health and a healthy weight.

Eat a varied diet. Increase the amount of fruits and vegetables you eat. Decrease the amount of meat (doesn't have to be by much).

There are no super foods. Take kale for instance. The good stuff kale has in it, broccoli has more. Acai berries? Strawberries are better.

This simple, varied diet is all that most people need.

when they invented cola, it was intended to be a drink that you drink once a year as a celebration, or something, and as a medicine (the cocaine). all colas were intended to be drank in the same quantity you'd take medicine.

now think about how much the average fatty drinks per day. holy shit, that's a lot of kiloJoules that they never get rid of. no wonder they are all giant blubs

Do you mean saturated fats clog your arteries? That's what comes up when you look it up.

if i was rich enough i would go on a moderate ketogenic diet.

right that's why omega 3 and omega 6 unsaturateds are considered healthier

Chain length inflences melting point of the fat, so olive oil stays liquid at lower temperture than palm oil

trans/cis configuration of C-C atomic bonds also matters. i thnk trans fats are worse
