RE: Protein for Muscle, Milk for Bones - And Other Lies We Believed

in #nutrition7 years ago (edited)

When you eat dead things, this also kills your insides by robbing it of the living enzymes inside. This is not metaphorical, this is literal. The cooking also creates many isolated substances in the body, and these isolated substances are always out of their natural balance.

Do you even understand that the reason you're able to type BS (bullshit) like this onto a computer is because one of your ancestors tens of thousands of years ago figured out how to transform food by applying heat?

Basically, you are being dumber right now than a caveman who thought the sun was a god and that sneezes meant the devil was inside you.

The invention of cooking was a pivotal moment in humankind that allowed our brains to get bigger. Cooking unlocked the food, and basically pre-digested it. Go ahead and do an experiment where you eat raw meat for a year and see how that goes. Enjoy all the living parasites and living bacteria and the simple challenge of chewing.

You have a bigger brain than the ancestors responsible for giving it to you. Use it.

Also fermented foods are very good for you. Most of the cells that comprise you aren't actually you. They are your microbiome. Fermented foods feed that part of you.

Well, if this was bullshit to you then the arguments you are putting forward are worse.

Basically, you are being dumber right now than a caveman who thought the sun was a god and that sneezes meant the devil was inside you.

True, it can only be a caveman who will think the Sun as some god or the sneezes to be an indicator of a devil sitting inside you. Looks like you haven't came out of the caves yet!

The invention of cooking was a pivotal moment in humankind that allowed our brains to get bigger. Cooking unlocked the food, and basically pre-digested it.

If cooking was an invention then uncooking is a bigger invention than that. There is not a single evidence to support that cooked or pre-digested food ever resulted in bigger brains for homo sapiens. In fact, if you will feed pre-digested meals to your digestive system, it will obviously get lazy and weak. Whereas brain developed because the humans managed to devote more time in thinking through their brains instead of just hunting for the food esp. after the invention of agriculture.

You don't even know that meat is NOT a food for your body. In this world only plants know to prepare food. All other beings are directly or indirectly dependent on plants for their energy. So if you have brains, you would consume your food directly from the primary source. So you need to go for completely plant-based diet ...a new realization or invention for you!

You have a bigger brain than the ancestors responsible for giving it to you. Use it.

Yes, all these realization is the outcome of that bigger brain. You are still following the caveman's approach. So what's the use of that bigger brain you have got. Do start thinking right away.

Also fermented foods are very good for you. Most of the cells that comprise you aren't actually you. They are your microbiome. Fermented foods feed that part of you.

Yes, first you destroy the microorganism colonies in your gut by consuming cooked food. Then you want to re-grow that micro-biome ecosystem back by struggling to consume more and more fermented food. Is this what you got bigger brain for?

I just re-read this, and Great point about brains becoming bigger simply by USING them! Don't people realize that caveman is a complete oxymoron ? Humans are tropical species...requiring sunlight for optimal performance!

This is a common argument, and I understand it. Don't forget that the human body has evolved for at least 100s of thousands of years and every day this evolution is looking to be in the millions. Tens of thousands of years isn't much at all on the evolutionary time line.

The invention of cooking was a pivotal moment in humankind that allowed our brains to get bigger. Cooking unlocked the food, and basically pre-digested it. Go ahead and do an experiment where you eat raw meat for a year and see how that goes. Enjoy all the living parasites and living bacteria and the simple challenge of chewing.

The intelligence necessary to cook food was not unlocked by cooking food. Man was intelligent enough to master fire before all of these mysterious benefits of cooking came about. ALL of these statements are based on assumptions, and I like to stay away from those :)

It is no secret that you destroy the value of orange juice by cooking (pasteurizing) it. It is also no secret that cooking starchy vegetables (i.e. sweet potatoes) is beneficial. When you weigh the effort verse the nutritional reward, cooking starchy vegetables only becomes valuable when you're a human being trying to live out of your natural environment. That natural environment is clearly the tropics.

You have a bigger brain than the ancestors responsible for giving it to you. Use it.

Clearly, I am :) Thank you.

Also fermented foods are very good for you. Most of the cells that comprise you aren't actually you. They are your microbiome. Fermented foods feed that part of you.

This is a good point. It does not, however, explain why it is that long-term fruitarians are thriving at life, reversing disease, breaking their fitness personal best records, and reporting happier and more fulfilling lives. I am a witness to this, and it is experience that you are lacking. Your lack of experience in this area doesn't give you much credit....

I hope you can put this into perspective.

Btw, I see no reason for you to "flag" my item to remove rewards from it. In return, I've flagged all of your recent posts, which has removed $4 in rewards from your posts. Do NOT flag someone's post simply because you disagree with it. It is the equivalent to censorship, and I hope you are better than that.

What you are doing is harmful. You should earn nothing but derision for the ignorance you are spouting. You are the equivalent of someone with a sign on the street telling people that they should ignore their cancer and drink your new wonder serum to cure it. You are a charlatan.

It is my understanding that a flag is a downvote. High quality posts should be visible on this platform. Garbage like yours should not. Not only is your garbage physically harmful to people, it is harmful to this community.

Steemit needs to grow. It needs more users. If someone sees a post like yours as their first post, and that it is earning money, if they have any intelligence, they will view this entire community negatively and will never return.

As for what you did to "punish" me, it just makes even more clear what kind of person you are, to downvote posts based on revenge, instead of anything to do with the actual post.

I have no intention of voting everything down of yours in return. You know why?

Because I'm not a piece of shit like you.

You have ignorance confused with experience. Who are you to judge, anyways? That is the example of ignorance, my friend.

What I have done is not to punish or for revenge--and I understand you only say this because of the mirror in front of all of our perspectives. I have done this to demonstrate a voting flaw with STEEM so that the developers consider removing it for the sake of Peace and anti censorship.

No need to attack me, bro :)

Charlatans like you have great interest in removing any ability for users of this platform to collectively reduce the earnings you receive for being a snake oil salesman. Downvoting hucksters isn't censorship, just like imprisoning a murderer isn't a violation of their civil rights. It's protecting the many from the few who fully intend to do them harm and otherwise would if free to do so.

And I'm not your bro, asshole.

As for "Charlatans", it's pretty clear I'm not selling anything. If you actually had a viable argument, you would've presented it by now, right? ;D
