Beef Recall

  1. Saturated fats don't clog your arteries, it's the unsaturated fats that primarily do. But you won't have the USDA tell you that since soybean & corn industry is a major lobbyist.

    Real beef, that's grass fed & graised, has very little saturated fat in comparison to commercial raised beef. The nutrition is unmatched by plantlife when you realize how much grass a cow eats.

    Get off your vegetarian tirade and try learning reality behind human diets. Maybe check out the Hunzas, who eat beef & pork and smoke and drink, yet are ultra healthy. The answer is elsewhere.

    The fact is that the human digestive & food delivery system is one of a omnivore, not a pure herbivore or carnivore.

  2. No offense Longshot, but your free test is deficient. I know you'll spout some bullshit about how muscular you are, but we all know you're a little guy with a blue palor. I would bet large that you're suffering from chronic anemia as well. No harm if sexual ambiguity is your thing.

  4. Ha, germline/genetics are as important as diet.

  5. Sure, but you should still play the hand you were dealt as best as you can, no? As for Hydroblunt's reference to unsaturated fats clogging arteries, I thought it was the hydrogenating of unsaturated fats that create the problem, not the unsaturated fats themselves.

  6. It's a matter of org chemistry. Saturated fats lack a double-bond.

  7. I don't know what that means.

  8. Matter-states. The ease at which the sat-fats made of poly-carbons align to form a solid.

  9. Okay, but bottom line it for me: generally speaking, are non-hydrogenated unsaturated fats better than saturated fats for cardiovascular health?
