It’s amazing to me that the world is still obsessed with low fat diets. So many products cut out the natural fat, and what remains is just a sugar fest.
Fly on an long distant flight- constantly offered breads, juices, fat free yogurts, etc. Sugar bomb after sugar bomb. I usually fast on planes.
At a breakfast buffet right now. Eggs fried in seed oil. The butter packets are mixed with seed oil. Juices and fruits everywhere. Coffee machines whose only milk option is fat free skim milk. The main area is waffles and syrup. The child at the table next to me has a breakfast plate with chocolate-covered waffles, french fries, and juice- just layers of carbs and sugar. One has to dig into the corners of the room to find the meat and boiled eggs and such.

Surprised there aren't more brands that position themselves as high fat replacements. Low fat probably just so much cheaper to produce per calorie, so incentives favour the status quo
Fat-free milk-based foods are shotcoins
yeah...they are trying to kill us off
*pre-ethereum shotcoins. Ethereum is actually soymilk.
You should read my blogstack about keto. Fat doesn't "clog" the arteries.
Yes,
people are obsessed about it because the industry knows how nature designed our bodies.
For most people it is too hard to step out of this trap, even if they know. But most people don't even know what they're dooing.
That's what drives us to change this way of food to have healthy and happy people around.
Have a grate day
Same... i dont eat those crap they offer on flights
I didn't go full keto, or cut carbs entirely, but I dropped 30 pounds and went from a recent diabetic A1c of over 8 down through pre-diabetic syndrome levels to "normal" 5.7 in about 3 months. Blood sugar welll over 300 regularly, down to a 80-120 range.
Love that keto options have become common enough to fill in some of the carb desires. But yeah, travel is rough.
At least most hotel breakfast have eggs of some sort.
Become a big fan of traveling with a bag of various nuts.
Would love to see more people understanding this relationship. The crowd here is full of Bitcoiners who believe in Nakamoto.
In our case our Nakamoto is Fukuyoka who described the relationship between natural food and health really beautifull.

Can't get fat if you don't eat fat, right?
The “granola” area usually has walnut or pecan pieces. One cup for the black coffee, one cup for the nuts. Nobody else seems very interested.
Last hotel I stayed at (work trip took about two and a half weeks) luckily had cheap sausage and I’m pretty sure powdered eggs on their breakfast offerings, and even that was all I ate from the breakfast offerings the whole time lol
I am sometimes in awe of the fact that there are people eating this way their whole lives who don’t have severe health problems.
Because it’s not only the airplane and airport, but think of what they stock in every CVS, every convenience store, all the fast-food chains. Those products still exist because people consume them. How do all the convenience store candy and chips and crackers and cookies aisles get cleared out and re-stocked. Millions must be eating it.
The flu or covid is small potatoes (even our metaphors are stuffed with carbs) — how is anyone still alive at all?
And people wonder why nerve damage is starting to become such a big problem. And IBS. Seed oils definitely cause IBS, and for me at least, a nasty skin rash, and I can't even eat most eggs, something I never realised until just recently, when I got an episode of biliary colic (probably gallstone, made of hard cholesterol) and someone pointed out they feed the chickens on grains.
Unfortunately, they also feed much of the meat animals grains too.
RUMINANTS ARE SUPPOSED TO EAT CELLULOSE NOT STARCH!!!!
You must be in America
The most logical is that fiat currency and by extension food has made the quality options too expensive for businesses to remain competitive.
I only eat Bloody Mary and gin tonic on the planes.
And why was it getting too expensive...?
Wow, is there anywhere fiat food hasn't infiltrated?
One more thing that’s bound to change.. I only made big changes to my diet when I was really forced to, thankful for all the great resources out there. They must have good tahine in Egypt, to have with veggies? And then of course eggs, lamb, goat, fish, beef.. struggling with regularity in fasting, irregular intermittent, that’s me.. of all the inevitable changes we face as humanity, that’s one of the ones that may take more time. The powerful food interests are literally vomit inducing.
Sugar clearly affects the attention span of people. Sugar spikes insulin, making it an unreliable source of energy. Given its role in ATP production, this is detrimental to cognitive capabilities. People then consume stimulants, which makes it even worse.
Ding, ding, ding! Decades of fat free diet propaganda brought us diets deficient in protein and helped society get fat and undermuscled. Muscle that could have been used to combat metabolic syndrome. Now, “climate science” seeks to demonize protein as another nail in the coffin of humanity!
I was flabbergasted the first time I saw bitcoiners discussing things like diet (and exercise and pretty much everything thing else!) in a way that I knew to be true. Not in a generic way, like “stop eating so much and go for a walk and you won’t be fat.” Rather, with an understanding that the real scam has been decades of fat free diet propaganda brought us diets deficient in protein and helped society get fat and undermuscled. Muscle that could have been used to combat metabolic syndrome. Now, “climate science” seeks to demonize protein as another nail in the coffin of humanity.
These sort of things only helped orange pill me further and further as I realized that bitcoiners are individuals who scrutinize the world and seek truth. This broad degree of scrutiny makes it much less likely that bitcoiners are wrong about their conviction for this thing that can make the world a better place.

Congrats! How do you feel?
Yeah. It hurts to watch.
Even if explained why, they so very few people change their diet. It hurts too.
Whilst I think we should differentiate between skimmed milk and other more synthetic or artificial no fat foods, yeh I agree. I don’t think anything should be ‘banned’ but we should certainly put more emphasis on education on nutrition.
I do OMAD, looking forward to shock people by saying so!
Fiat food. Disgusting.
Constant short cuts to quality to keep price somewhat stable in an inflating system.
Nice! I recommend trying full carnivore too and see if you can get even better.
I agree with all of the above but not with the fruits part. Fruits eaten at the right time of the day and especially when you follow seasonal types can be very beneficial.
Like bitcoin, you can't see it until you step outside the fiat frame.
You win.

I am living on a high sats diet.
It feels great!

F-I-A-T food!
Its sad how blind the average person is to how terrible the American diet is. A lot of propaganda goes into convincing us doritos, candy, ect are edible foods
Exercise our bodies, nourish our minds, and cultivate resilience. In health, we find the foundation for a resilient spirit.
Catharine Austin Fitts at solari.com says that what you are observing is part and parcel of the “great poisoning “ of society, a plausibly deniable effort by “them” to reduce overall life expectancy by, among other things, fiat foods, thus having a deflationary effect on population and reducing future financial liabilities that they might otherwise be responsible for.
So true. Such a tragedy. Where are you that this carb laden desert is occurring?
Reminds me of a cruise buffet or a southern hotel.
It takes a lot to hunt down those little scraps like eggs and whole cream and when you can’t find em just choosing not to eat and go with a black coffee and be patient for your next meeting venue.
Then your 2pm meeting is like, “what’s with this guy…” as you’re are half listening and half looking around like your being followed when, all you can think about is a GD mixed greens chicken salad.

you don't have to boil eggs. you can fry them in butter.
i also experimented with soft boiling eggs then frying them - it comes out nice, but too much work.
Sounds like it is being done on purpose.
It's cause they want us all sick, dying and dead before our time while they profit from the non-cures they offer for the diseases they created on purpose. Not news in this crowd I know but just do the opposite of what "they" say and you'll mysteriously be healthy and happy 😊
It's true, the prevalence of low-fat products can sometimes lead to higher sugar intake. Traveling and breakfast buffets often offer carb-heavy options. Making mindful choices like fasting on planes or seeking out protein-rich foods at buffets can help maintain a balanced diet.
In my experience, even hospital dieticians don't see any problems with low-fat diets or seed oils. It's astonishing!
I have buttered coffee for breakfast every day and I consume a stick of butter a day that way. I'm definitely not fat.
Cuz not enough to kill ya, but enough to make ya sick.
But I'm amazed by ppl who don't have a lot of obvious symptoms after eating this diet for so long.
I tend to fast on flights, food usually pretty rank
Champagne on the other hand 😂
The fact that there isn’t a restaurant chain or popular brand that aggressively advertises “No seed oils.”
The fact that “fat free” remains a thing and no one has yet taken advantage of “no seed oils,” especially considering I’d buy the crap out of whatever they sold, just baffles me.
When I go out and get anything, I can tell within 5 minutes of eating it if it was cooked in seed oils (which it almost always is). I’m stopped up and congested almost instantly. I am particularly careful when I’m working on an audiobook because my voice won’t cut together it gets so bad. Kills a days worth of recording sometimes.
When I realized what it was and started asking for my steak or eggs to be cooked in butter, it stopped happening.
It consumes time and resources to make things worse. Very stupid
What’s the solution on an international flight besides starving?
Who's fukuyoka?
I like that: animal fat pilling
Haha was just gonna tag ya to this note
It’s amazing what is and is not common knowledge. Seed oils is such an easy fix — it’s not like asking people to self-custody their life savings — and yet they remain oblivious.
Raw milk maximalist
Heavy cream maximalist
Bring your own food?
Fat is nature's proof-of-work.
We've been too good at this kind of work so this is the backlash. People are haven't gotten that the key problem has switched from availability to personal regulation.
Capital city hotel?
Fiat nutrition science really did a number on our health

It always weirds me out how airplanes serve you dinner at 2am 🤔
When a plane flies over an ocean, they serve dinner regardless of the time. They are just like, “well, it’s dinner o’clock”.
"If it fits your makros" - the hype is real
I think it's more incentive than obsession. Cheap food is cheap, even if borderline toxic.

Masanobu Fukuoka was a japanese farmer and one of the most influential persons to #permaculture and regenerative agriculture.
His famoust book is the one straw revolution.
Can recomend
It is as beautifull written as a Book from japan can be.
#gardening
Thank you for the explanation!!
I should have fasted on my last flight. I ended up sick for a few days afterward. It was a cross-Atlantic trip and it took 48 hours start to end thanks to a missed connecting flight. Still, the garbage food on the flight didn't help at all.
Masanobu Fukuoka is a legend! I love his books. It helped broaden my perspective and deepen my understanding of nature.
Really?! Okay, Natan approves. Now I got my hands on them. 😄😄
It's crazy. And my wife tells me to eat salad when i eat out. Since salad is essentially water, you just have the sauce. And guess what, the sauce is fat free sugar. So by eating salad, you just eat sugar.
The world is on ab anti fat mania. I think 10 years ago it was worse though. So maybe there's hope
Having flown 8-9 million miles, I still wonder why the meals served are mostly based on the time zone you've departed rather than the one you're arriving at, with the exception of sometimes you get a "breakfast."
It is without a doubt the weirdest thing about air travel - I also fast on planes...
But I can't help but feel like I am actually in the Matrix in 2023 when they're still serving animal crackers.
are fried eggs bad for health?
Real question 🧐
Natural sugar is good for you! Honey, fruit, fresh squeezed oj is the move. Definitely avoid fiat sugar though that stuff is not real
Breakfast is a scam.
Exactly. They give us infinite sugar and hide the meat.
Fasting.
Although admittedly it helps if you’re already used to fasting! Probably not a good idea to try it for the first time on a long haul flight.
I'm convinced airplanes serve carb heavy meals so people fall asleep.

Fried in what?
There's always jerky or biltong
French fries for breakfast???

Hey @npub1jha7...xj6y
you're welcome and thank you for the zap
This is going directly into funding a new tree without any middleman.
And
Read the one straw revolution
This is like water for your soul.
Thank you @npub1epxh...yqxz for approving and giving Fukuoka a voice at #NOSTR.
You're welcome.
Great to hear where the fund goes to.
Okay, I shall.
Nice!
In seed oil
I went for the butter in today's breakfast


And did an omelet 🥚🍳


Didn't went that well 😅
#foodstr


All soft food no exercise for Joy
Very sad indeed. Nothing like growing your own food, organic and non gmo.
….and then 3 hours later it’s breakfast time!!! Lol.
Shopping with my under 3 yrs old son, he points to a 'butter' on the shelf and says it's the one from kindergarten. He recognizes the green color.
Yeah fucking great. When did they introduce that, silently, without telling parents? They're feeding this highly processed, only seedoils and glucose bullshit to the toddlers now. And we wonder why he is constipated and sick again for two weeks. I changed my work schedule so I can pick him up before they feed the children lunch, because I know that is crap too. I rather work less than allow my child to be walked down the path of processed food and modern sicknesses. Breakfast I make him in the mornings so he doesn't have to eat any of that bread or fruits in kindergarten later. But noooo, now they place that sweetened seedoil creme in front of the kids and that's just like a sweet.
Two more months and he's in a different kindergarten, in the woods, exclusively, everyday, mornings and noon, with self provided food.
These idiot social workers drive me mad. Especially that I know that they don't know what they're doing, they see a green package and that is good right? I could ramble on forever...
Have a nice Sunday.

If you test a healthy high fat-low carb diet in your own life, you will see in a few weeks that it is much better for you. Sleep, energy level, weight loss, etc., will all improve
I agree. I wrote an article about that six years ago:
