Poor people in this country are obese! What they want, government provided shakeweights?

And still think they're malnourished and can't afford "healthy" foods. In reality they're overnourished and healthy foods are cheap, they just refuse to buy them.

It’s all relative. The organic option is almost always more expensive than the ultra processed version.

But the organic option isn't healthier.

The cheapest option are beans, lentils, potatoes, rice, flour, bulgur, oats, canola oil and frozen veggies. Which is also by far the healthiest options.

Most people, especially libertarian types have some really bad ideas about nutrition but I'm here to sort that out. Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan are idiots on nutrition. Just so you know.

I've been eating 95% steak and eggs for about 7 months. My food bill dropped about 30%.

I feel great. I need 1-2 hours less sleep per night, I have more energy, and am building muscle like crazy.

I've been vegetarian before. It made me feel awful. So obviously, my girlfriend went and bought me a steak and cooked it for me and demanded I eat it, something she had never done previously, as she has been vegetarian her whole life.

You feel?

That's not a wise way to go about this. Go have your blood tested and pay attention to LDL, LPa and ApoB. You're literally risking your life if you let those numbers go too high.

Saturated fat is causal to heart disease. You might be making a huge mistake here dude.

LoL!

My cholesterol is very low. I have several doctors in the family. I know what I am doing.

Meat is good for you. Lean meat is not bad for you at all. No matter how much they try to make it seem so.

Eating mostly meat makes you big and strong and healthy. That is a large part of how Americans tend to dominate the olympics. Superior diet.

They key is getting lots of exercise. I work blue collar, ride my bike everywhere it is feasible, and work out 6-7 days a week.

"lol???"

That's not what smart people say.

What is your LDL? Give me the number. I think you're lying to me.

No, all nutrition organisations on earth recommends cutting down meat consumption since it's strongly linked to a number of chronic diseases.

You've just fallen for the carnivore tiktok shorts haven't you? They are not scientific dude.

You can't out exercise a bad diet.

Do you really think you're a nutrition expert? That you're so smart you can outwit all standard recommendations on your own?

I believe a bit of research into food swamps will provide you with some interesting insights.

What is a good swamp?

Never heard of it.

How so?

Seems spot on.

One could add, "they have no idea how the economy works, so they simply assume it works how they imagine it does according to their batshit crazy ideology".
