What do you think you know about nutrition and what is "healthy"? - eviltoast

natural fats are generally healthy and keeps you satisfied for longer and in a less crashy way as opposed to sugars/carbohydrates in general

I feel like I experience a reduced need to eat and snack when my food includes natural fats, especially when in combination with protein. To put it very simply, I’m persuaded the more healthy fats, the better, they should not be limited or demonized in the way that they have been maligned when sugar was the greater evil all along

    Research has shown that for the average person, vit D supplements are practically a waste as the forms they provide don’t match what we need.

    You and I are special cases.

    Sun is what the typical person needs, so their body can produce the forms of D they need.

      How do you know you have this? I got so much benefit from Nicotinamide Riboside, and after years of low vitamin D levels finally found one supplement that raised them, VeganD3+K2 - I’m not vegan but that is the one that has worked. Not sun (I get plenty of that) nor fish nor any other supplement ever got it out of the alleged critically low range.

        If you have done a partial gene sequence for a service like ancestry or 23andme you can just look at the raw data and search for the known polymorphisms.

          Oh, no I don’t want to do that (have always felt uncomfortable about those). Thank you though, that makes sense.
