This was worth studying? I thought it was common knowledge.

Still not justification for crazy caveman diets.

We were told it's the fat. So companies took out fat from everything and replaced it with sugar, because fructose is generally considered safe. Fat free son:

Cool study, but is a 1.1% rise in prevelence really significant either? I didn't read the article to find their sample size, but I'd be willing to bet it's not statistically significant.

It's also been a long time since I've used stats, so I'm prepared to be schooled by someone.

Here's a fun statistic: Eli Manning is 2-0 in Super Bowls!

Anyway, sugar sucks. I think we all know not to drink fucking soda by now, seriously.

Again, you're either lying or clueless, science never said "FATS = BAD, SUGAR = GOOD!" and just because sugar is "bad" (no one would argue that sugar is a health food), it doesn't make other things (ie all fats) "good." Quit being a thick moron.

Meet the Fats. They're bad and better. The better of course being vegetable oils, like Canola which is only pressed, extracted with a chemical solvent, heated, oxidized, had the wax removed and then chemically deodorized.

You can read the "facts" on that page too. They make it quite clear that fats are bad in their opinion even when saying your body needs some fats. I dont know that sugar has a little marketing gimmick like that from the AHA. I do know you can find the little heart healthy approval thing on Honey Nut Cheerios and up until the past few years you could find it on Cocoa Puffs

Jeez, you are impossibly stupid. I don't even know why I'm bothering writing a post to you. You've already demonstrated you don't have a high school level of understanding of biological science or physiology. You get your data from columnists (lol.) And you can't begin to critically interpret a scientific paper. I mean, you're fucking going from diabetes, to hyperlipidemia, to whatever else from post to post. You're exasperating.

Congratulations, among Americans you're about average.

They took fat out and replaced it for 2 reasons:
1. Much cheaper putting high fructose corn syrup in everything thanks to ridiculous corn subsidies from government and trade embargo on cuba
2. At some point in the 80s every retard decided fat and cholesterol were going to kill you so they labelled everything fat free and cholesterol free.

Again, you're either lying or clueless, science never said "FATS = BAD, SUGAR = GOOD!" and just because sugar is "bad" (no one would argue that sugar is a health food), it doesn't make other things (ie all fats) "good." Quit being a thick moron.
There are plenty of research articles suggesting that fat is bad, sugar is good. Retarded scientists, researching funded by sugar companies etc. Especially from the 80s when the government, heart association etc were all jumping on the fat is bad for you bandwagon


Google fat free craze and read some articles about it, it's quite interesting.

Ya, I eat salty nuts like they're going out of style. Can't decide between almonds and pistachios on which are the best nuts.

Dislike almonds, but I love cashews, pistachios and pecans. The rest of the nuts can get fucked.

Had a chick that worked next to me in a cube when I worked in a silly office - she'd bring a giant bag of mixed nuts and munch on them over a few days. She hated cashews, so I'd have a pile on a plate to sate myself on.

I miss that gal.
