What is your dietary habit?

[patrick1]

Currently doing 1g protein, .4 g fat per lb of body weight. Shooting for about 500 calories below maintenance.  Its been a month- lost a lot of fat and kept strength up.  I eat a lot of meat to hit protein but cholesterol, blood pressure et al is impeccable.

Vegetarianism/veganism is the worst thing white people have ever invented.

If you like strokes, high blood pressure, hypertension, fat, cholesterol, etc.

Eating meat is perfectly healthy.  It doesn't cause high blood pressure or high LDL cholesterol.  That's sort of a myth based on the misconception that eating fat makes you fat.

The AHA disagrees with you - decidedly.

That eating fats does not make you fat is kind of funny, actually. The question is whether or not the fat in question is a 'good' fat. An avocado is a good fat. A banana is a good fat. A jelly doughnut is not. A porterhouse is not. They'll all make you fat, but the first two won't give you a stroke.

And for goodness sakes, drop the pizza and ice cream.

...And a report came out today showing that saturated fat did not have a definitive effect on heart disease or stroke.

The real problem is that Americans eat too much of everything, dont exercise enough and eat too much processed food.
