The problem is that many people start to develop problems in digesting many types of food that would normally be easily assimilated. The causes could be many but the most likely culprits are antibiotics and pesticides damaging the gut linin

I had the same problem a few years back when I tried a vegan diet for a few months. 2 teeth pulled, inflamed gums, plus as a bonus bad acid reflux (the 3 things could be related i guess). Going back to a normal diet made them better but did

High LDL is a known consequence of keto on lean people. There are ongoing studies to find out if this is a risk factor for plaque development in otherwise metabolically healthy people. Anyway stopping the diet would normally lower his LDL t

Well there is a few people for whom this diet is having great effects. But there is indeed no science at all to back it up at the moment. But it is surely curious that such a diet which goes against every knowledge we have about diet can wo

Vegans are thinner and usually malnourished. Meat eaters are usually fatter because they get their meat from mcDonalds. Even a vegan eating chips every day has the potential of becoming obese. You are really just comparing health conscious

Where is your first sentence coming from though? Afaik keto works well by stabilizing and lowering insulin release with the effect of minimizing the storage of fat and carb cravings caused by sugar crashes. If you want to you can literally

You are right. The real quote would be: studies suggest that Omicron-specific boosters offer no advantage over a third dose of current vaccines.

The air. Extreme traffic, old people burning wood (or worse) to heat their houses and a lot of polluting industry. Depending on the type of weather most days the air is unbreathable. I'm not saying that WV is worse than the rest of Bel

I think that Australia and NZ might be very high because of skin cancers and the infamous ozone hole. India can probably be extremely polluted in the cities but I wonder if it's the same in the country side. And fair enough, african co

Not really. It used to be a mix of seed oils and animal fat. But I don't think that many fries places do still use the animal fat part for "health reasons".

Well this doesn't mean that you can smoke all day if you move to Umbria and be safe. But what I noticed is that in some places smoking is much riskier than others. And apparently it's not just a feeling of mine. Belgium is the 6th

This. I live in Belgium coming from Italy and it's scary how many people I know gets cancer here. Like someone i know every few months gets it (and I'm not talking about just old people. A couple guys i know got it in their 20s).

I always wondered if our passion for travel has deeper roots. Maybe it comes from our ancestral need to move to greener pastures in search for food and better climate. Sometimes we prefer go for long hikes, some others to stop and chill in

The only source of their stats is the party. It's part of their politics to downplay the bad and show off the good. They have nothing to gain by showing to their population that they are weak in front of this pandemic.
