You probably heard @Never Get Up say this a million times but calories is a unit for measuring heat. We don't burn heat for energy, we are not a fucking train, we use ATP for energy. This heat energy in also in a closed system. You don’t eat heat energy, you’re not a closed system.

Calories are an excuse pushed by the carbohydrate industry to blame their victims for becoming obese and dying of diabetes. Eat when hungry, stop eating when your not hungry. It is such a simple idea yet so difficult for people to understand. Our ancestors counted nothing yet now everyone thinks we need a calculator to eat.

By law, food labels can be in error of the "calories" inside their product by up to 20%. This mean if you think you supposedly eat 2000 "calories" a day, your not, it could be anywhere from 1600 - 2400 "calories" in reality.

Also, protein shouldn't even be counted as calories as it's not even used for energy but as a building block. Ofc, if you overeat on protein your body will turn into glucose but that rarely happens for the average person, escpecially those that destroy their bodies on "caloric deficit" diets.

There are many more problems (bioavailability, enzymes, digestion health...) with counting calories.

The only reason caloric deficit works is because people vastly cut their food intake to a dangerous level where they do lose weight but fuck up their body in the long run.

You can only use glucose or fat for energy. If you combine both within a meal you activate your Randle cycle and you nuke your body with inflammation.

You have option A: use only glucose ie. plants for energy and risk severe malnourishment in 3-4 years and pretty bad chronic health problems.

Or option B: go on a high fat carnivore diet and compeltely forget about calories, meal counting and other autistic diet strategies. You will feel healthy, satiated, and your body will self-correct any weight problems.



Just remember, calories are a bullshit propaganda that the corrupt grain industry uses to blame their victims for obesity caused by grain and sugar merchants.

when I cut I just feel hunger consistently, when I bulk I eat past satiety.

to maintain I eat when I feel hungry.

you don't have to track anything if you don't have impaired hormonal signaling.

when ur constantly spiking insulin with carbs and sugars. body builders keep fats to a minimum and protein constant and increase and decrease carbs depending on bulk, cut or maintain. this is not optimal diet and causes a ton of inflammation.

eating meat eggs and butter doesnt require calorie counting, there is no insulin spike, unless a large amount of protein is consumed at once.

even then there's the possible 20% error on each nutrition label

holy not reading allat and it works just fine lost 50 pounds doing so
 
Counting calories has always been retarded as fuck to me. Even when I was a weightlifting slave I never counted them. But yeah, just eat when you feel like it and don’t starve or force feed yourself.

you really think people need fucking calculators to eat now adays jfl?
 
just because I think it's a valid strategy doesn't mean I follow it.

many people have lost weight tracking it.
Weight is consisted of bone, fat, muscle, and water. You can lose weight in many aspects.

The goal is to lose fat, not the total weight.

Losing weight is NOT an indicator of health. Glycation damage via carbohydrates will still occur no matter what.

Ancestors never counted one single calorie

mTOR also causes oxidative stress which damages mitochondrial DNA and causes you to age prematurely, just about every aspect of your diet spikes mTOR more than any other diet.

mTOR signaling has been associated with mitochondrial dysfunction in aging and diseases like neurodegeneration and cancer.

Association doesn’t equal causation.

Carbohydrate consumption is what accelerates aging, not meat and animal fat.

Stop listening to vegan propagandists that want you to avoid the one thing we evolved to eat for millions of years.

You are 32 years old and are still this low IQ.

Absolutely astonishing!

there's no association here, animal proteins, especially red meat directly spike mtor.

both cause ageing, an extreme model towards any direction doesn't work due to this.

they live longer than meat eaters do, their quality of life is just lower.

You must do the following:

• Face must be shown

• Up to 3 sources that are peer reviewed publications

• Any over talking will result in the moderator muting the person not in place to talk at the moment

• Provide only scientific hard outcomes (no associative data work)

• Will be live streamed via TikTok

• Must be at least 16 years old

• Discussing anything non-related to the topic at hand will result in an automatic ending of the debate

That means to eat both meat and veggies/fruit?
most foods cause problems in excess so the only way around that is moderation.

I usually stop eating fillers like bread/rice/potato when I'm cutting.

If you 2 knew anything about the Randle Cycle, which you don’t, then you would understand that eating a mixed macro diet is one of the worst things you can perform.

1. It won’t be a debate in the field of human nutrition. I would absolutely rape you. It will be a learning lesson for yourself.

2. You have 0 credibility just based off of how you type alone. Terrible word choice, grammar, and punctuation.

4. What does it matter where it’s streamed? How does that affect the discussion at all? It doesn’t.

Correlation leads to causation not everything is proven
False

The first thing you ever learn as an upcoming scientist in any field is that if you can’t prove something without removing all variables then it can’t be classified as causal.
