calories-in = calories-out myth

7.12:  health/calories in equals calories out myth:
. some promoters of the theory of
calories in equals calories outWhy We Get Fat: And What to Do About It
explain that non-believers are citing
the myth of negative calorie foods:
that foods vary widely in the amount of
energy they require for digestion .
. while negative calorie foods is a myth
there are valid arguments against the
calories in equals calories out theory:
1: metabolic rates:
. some food vary your metabolic rate:
NOW Foods Mct 100% Oil, 32-Fluid Ounceseg, mct oil is known to enhance thermogenesis;
whereas, some natural food toxins may
suppress metabolic rate;
eg, some potato preparations cause
insulin resistance .[7.31:
. I have only circumstantial evidence
against the splendid spud,
how would you explain its glycemic index
being higher than glucose itself?
my theory is that potato contains
an insulin resistor  that prevents the body
from clearing glucose as rapidly .
. it is known that damaged potato skins
can be toxic,
but I have no data on what in potato
could be an insulin resistor .]
 2: high-insulin mode:
. foods with a high glycemic index
are provoking excessive insulin release;
and high insulin levels can set your body
into fat preserving mode .
. when this mode is sustained by
regular use of a high-glycemic diet
fat is easy to put on, and hart to burn off,
even when you need more energy,
it will instead make you feel tired
to enforce the fat savings policy .
3: ketosis mode:
. Atkins also has well referenced caseAtkins for Life: The Complete Controlled Carb Program for Permanent Weight Loss
that a carb-free, med-free diet
can promote a fat burning mode
that actually dumps calories out
with the feces and urine
as well as making body fat easier to burn .

. while other doctors debate the
healthiness of the Atkins diet,
they have no solid ref'backed counterarguments
to his zero-carb diet = fat burning mode theory
nor to his assertion that
obesity and high insulin mode
is far more dangerous than high fat diets
given the other stipulations of the Atkins diet
are heeded (high anti-oxidants, no peroxidzed oil,
few polyunsaturated fats except fishoil, ...).

. his diet does have medical complications
(kidney stress, ...)
and he does go against prior public medical advice
so, he puts other doctors in a bind
since their patients are now saying:
I need you to watch me do safely
what you warned me was unsafe .
. another complication is that
people cheat on diets,
and if you cheat on a high fat diet with
high-glycemic carbs,
that is a sure heart attack
because the carb's raise insulin,
while sat'fats cause insulin resistance,
thereby causing a very high insulin mode .

fructose | Chlorella is an antidote

Sun Chlorella Granules 3 grams 100 PacketsNOW Foods Chlorella 1000mg, 120 Tablets7.24: news.health/fructose/Chlorella is an antidote:

. Chlorella is a nutritious
fresh water algae,
popular in Japan and Taiwan
that may reduce Insulin resistance
when used daily in several meals .
. the #1 cause of insulin resistance
is excessive fructose consumption,
according to Dr.Mercola,
referring to the modern diet high in
added fructose+glucose sweeteners .
. a rats-on-fructose-diet study showed
that chlorella undid some of the fructose's
insulin resistance .

safe-carb's Dr.Lustig

7.26: health/zone/safe-carb's Dr.Lustig

reincarnation of saint Atkins found!

. the spirit of Dr.atkins
was the same as Jesus Christ:
going against the established culture
to make big improvements for even the least of us .
The Great Cholesterol Con: The Truth About What Really Causes Heart Disease and How to Avoid It. his particular achievement was to reveal
that, contrary to conventional medical advice,
a high fat diet was actually
safer for your heart than a
low-fat, normal-carb diet;
-- at least when you were
obese and insulin resistant --
because, among the insulin resistant
there is carb intolerance,
so that what seems like normal carb intake
is actually perpetuating
insulin resistance and high insulin
Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It-- by far the highest risk factors
for heart disease;
he also revealed that for those who were
highly insulin resistant,
a zero-carb diet was essential to
getting back your insulin sensitivity,
and getting back into fat-burning mode .

frankenberry lives after golfcart nightmare

7.2: news.pol/obama/frankenberry lives after golfcart nightmare:
Franken Berry Cereal 9.6 oz - 4 Unit Pack. on Whad'Ya Know? Live, (RealAudio)
Michael Feldman was asked about
frankenberry cereal being discontinued;
. wiki sources say the strawberry-flavored
corn and marshmallows cereal
is still in production .
. the myth was addressed at retroist.com:
"( Contrary to popular belief
Franken Berry and Boo Berry
have not been discontinued.
They are just not as popular as Count Chocula
so they get a more sporadic nationwide release.
Best time to look for them?
Halloween, of course.)
. similarly themed cereals that were discontinued
include:
# ('83) Fruit Brute:
Monster Cereal TrilogyFrosted fruit-flavored cereal
with lime flavored marshmallows .
with a Werewolf Mascot .
# ('93) Fruity Yummy Mummy:
Frosted fruit-flavored cereal
with vanilla-flavored marshmallows .
. other such cereals still in production
include Count Chocula, and Boo Berry .

General Mills FrankenBerry Cereal, 9.6 oz (Pack of 6). Feldman has been attacked by 
anti-liberals on his show
and our most popular breakfast berry
is the nearly-obama-colored blueberry,
so, it occured to me this was a joke about
Obama's serial presidency plans
 being discontinued .

. in the same program,
'Reckless Golfcart' Wall Decal - 18"W x 18"H Removable GraphicFeldman had a political routine where
callers were asked if they had seen any
congressmen on the road .
. the final entry of that joke sequence
was that Obama and his VP
 were seen on a golfcart
with a sign that read "(fool and tool) .

. the golf cart joke may refer to a ridiculed
tax rebate for road-worthy golfcarts .
. that was back in 2009,
but is painfully relevant now
as a republican congress threatens to
deny raising the debt limit ceiling .
. the golf cart was news again June 18
when the top leaders of both parties
had a round of golf at a time when the hot policy
included the debt ceiling
and the Libya actions that Congress was against .
