    Target training for muscle tone is possible, but not target training for fat loss or gain. People who gain weight in the "wrong places" largely have their body type to blame. However, most body types can get away with good muscle tone and little if any excess fat. The people who wear their fat well largely have their body type to thank and not any specific dietary regimen. So the idea is to be toned and not to exceed a normal percentage of body fat. Exercise and good dietary habits. Everything else is witchcraft and snake oil.

    agreed, natural plant-based food is great healthy way to lose weight.

    Even so it's still all about calories in vs out. Still, have no clue why anyone would want to get fatter and therefore enter a less than healthy state of physicality.

  6. If she is sickly thing then a Paleo diet should correct that assuming she does not put herself into Keto.

    If she is looking to gain toned then the leangains protocol works for a lot of people.


    On a side note...Anyone doing Cold Thermogenesis?

  7. It still is cal in vs cal out but not in the sense that one would think. Its not a daily summation of the cals consumed verse expended but momment by momment. So if there is person 1 who eats 3000 cal for breakfast and that is it, verse person 2 who eats 3000 cals throughout the day; person 1 will lose weight, person 2 will more then likely gain weight or maintain depending on carb consumption and Keto status.

  8. What I dont understand is why this is considered fringe/cult nutrition? The data is there, there is no data supporting grains/sugar execpt for observational data which has been mostly debunked. I guess once you take the red pill its hard to stay in the matrix.

  10. there arent any. exactly the opposite:

    all large populations of healthy, trim people have lived on starch-based diets. We are obliged to eat starch, and failure to eat this way, means failure to thrive -- both as individuals and as civilizations.

    Historical Examples of Grain-Based, Starch-Based, Diets

    Barley -- Middle East for 11,000 years

    Corn -- Central and South America for 7000 years

    Millet -- Africa for 6,000 years

    Oats -- Middle East for 11,000 years

    Sorghum -- East Africa for 6,000 years

    Rice -- Asia for more than 10,000 years

    Rye -- Asia for 5000 years

    Wheat -- Near East for 10,000 years

    then this:

    Denmark= highest red meat intake, Denmark=highest cancer rate in the world.
    Finland= highest dairy intake, Finland= Highest OSteoporosis rate.
