My food is two ingredients (bone dry beef, and tallow). The batch of beef in my mixing bowl now will make 3kg of food which is enough for about 20 days.
Three weeks of food for half a day's work. My limiting factor is the amount I can dry at once

It's valuable to us like cars are valuable to highways, except our guts have a job without cars
Out of the analogy fibre is good for blocking uptake of what you eat and slowing down too fast digestion, which is great if what you're eating isn't good for you, but which you don't want if you only eat stuff that is entirely good
Your environment bits
We all know the problems of industrial farming. It's unsustainable
Fortunately the solution works for both me and you: permaculture
It makes soil rather than consuming it. It makes marginal land suitable for crops
Permaculture requires animals on the land to fertilise it, and crop plants to turn the shit to soil.
Much worse than beef farms though are grain farms
Comprehensive Review of Red Meat Consumption and the Risk of Cancer https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10577092/ From the abstract: "The evidence is strong for the association between red meat and breast cancer and most gastric cancers.
This looks to me to be a review of food frequency questionnaire studies which are famous for being only good for hypothesis generation, and not great at that. Where their research has been tested by interventional experiments they generally don't survive, for example eggs and cholesterol.
Garbage in; garbage out
Are the rest of them the same? Bring interventional studies if you want to demonstrate causality, if your #1 reference is indicative all you've done is demonstrate you don't know or don't care about the explanatory power of different types of studies, and asking people what they ate in the last 5 years (tick the boxes in the categories on the form) are the least powerful, they don't even demonstrate correlation clearly since they are so low resolution, so prone to healthy food answer bias, and so reliant on human memory of what they ate up to half a decade ago
Anyway people have been doing carnivore or zero carb or zero fibre in modern times for 20 years, if meat was as dangerous as your poor quality studies say the would certainly be studies of the high cancer rate and heart attacks in the carnivore community
Science needs funding. Funding is always aligned to what the research is about; Coca cola is hardly going to sponsor a "meat is good" paper, though they do provide money to try to prosecute doctors for providing nutrition advice to sick patients
Dr Mason is doctor enough to call out what is not scientifically proven. The only parts of this very short segment from a longer presentation that isn't demonstrated yet but science are:
He clearly flagged those as anecdote and supposition so I'm not at all sure what your problem is.
The very short summary is "isn't it interesting that lots of people in this population claim to not get sunburnt, since this thing that other population eats and this population don't is known to stop parts of this system in the body, I wonder if it also blocks related thing"
There is nothing controversial there, it's a clearly stated hypothesis
Interesting that he seems to make pemmican from ground meat. I haven't tried that though it should work pretty well
If I try that I might have to spread it on baking paper on the mesh that my dehydrator uses
The premise for his argument is "humans produce vitamin D as a Sunscreen"
Which...what?? No. Humans produce melanin as natural sunscreen, not vitamin D.
Yes melanin protects us from sunlight, but what's your source for vitamin D not being protective against sun damage?
You don't need an excuse. If you're at a party and no longer want to be there, say "I have to go now, thanks for the great party" to the host and leave
No one cares why you're leaving. I'm probably well on the neurotypical end of the spectrum and I'm usually there first in my friend group to leave a party just because parties are late and I wake early. No one complains unless I'm their lift home and they don't want to leave yet
You're arguing for having a car in a thread about needing a car
It's not about banning cars, it's about designing places to make them not necessary
Where I live you can walk to the local shops
Loads of people drive, but you don't have to. This is good.
thanks for using Leebra!
