dieting

Maybe it takes a study like the one below to finally wake the public health authorities from their century-long slumber. I doubt there is a person alive today living in the Western world who has not been raised by the mantra "eat less and move more" as the single proven way to lose weight...

Ray has talked about the meat in mexico always being fresh and not aged like the meat in the US. We also know that ground meat contains higher amounts of endotoxins than regular meat. How much of a difference do you think there is in endotoxin content from a animal killed, cooked, and eaten in...

I have trouble finding free range chicken. I buy oven baked chicken strips by the kilo. It's a main source of calories and protein for me. Since its a fact that chicken are often given hormones, I am wondering what I could eat to counteract this. Any ideas ?

I ate some beef today and my temperature is higher than usual. I dont usually eat beef. I get my protein from milk, cheese and gelatin.

As an ignorant atheist gentile, I think preparation of meat according to the Book involves draining as much as possible of the blood from the meat after slaughter and before butchering, but I'm not sure. Is this right? If so, does that mean it would contain less iron, because the blood has a...

Yeah, we start craving food with protein, but does anyone know what types of hormones, etc. signal that? We know how it works for sugar: i.e., glucose-insulin cycle. Is there something like that for protein as well? Thanks

Hi guys and girls, I have been peating for quite long time, eating a relatively good diet. Two days ago I have eaten about a 500 grams of fried chicken (cooked at home)... When I woke up the next day my temperature was 0,6* lower than normal! It went from 36,6*C to 36,0*C! Was it PUFA or...

How does this low protein diet work http://anti-itisdiet.blogspot.com/2007/ ... teins.html

There is a quote on the front page of the forum from Ray saying that chronic dieting leads to hypothyroidism. One of the mechanisms this happens through is the chronically elevated cortisol levels that dieting causes. Here is a study that discussed the effects of dieting on cortisol in humans...

When making a chicken based broth, a lot of the fat rises to the top. Does anyone have an idea of what percentage of fat you can remove? If you could get it low enough, chicken doesn't seem like such a bad protein source. Low iron and far more digestible than beef. Remove skin and fat, leave...

Has anyone found a good and economic source for pork / bacon that is grassfed or at least not fed grains?

In direct contradiction to outfits like Weight Watchers, Warrior Diet, etc this study shows that chronic dieting and calorie restriction leads to obesity. Most of these "expert" protocols talk about "leptin sensitization". As the study points out, elevated leptin is actually one of the major...

Hi All, Here is a sample of my diet: Meal 1 - Chicken Tenderloins (99% Fat Free)+ Berries + Milk + Gelatin + Orange Juice Meal 2 - Turkey Mince (99% Fat Free) + Mangos + Gelatin Meal 3 - Eggs OR Grass Fed Beef Mince + Grapes + Milk + Gelatin + Coffee Meal 4 - Tuna + Orange + Milk + Gelatin +...

Has Ray Peat ever said anything about smoked meat or different ingredients in meat like smoke aroma?

I have always been a huge fan of beef and the like but lately, it all tastes like iron and my stomach is not 100% happy when I eat it. Whitefish, shrimp, gelatine, cheese, it's all a pleasure to eat at the moment so I don't think it's protein in general. Is this a sign that I need to lose some...

Im just wondering, this baffles me all the time....why is it that meat smells good, can taste good, but the act of producing it is terryfing and grotesque? Im just wondering how many people would eat meat if they had to kill and process every animal they ate? There seems to be a sort of...

Since the advice is to add gelatin to muscle meat, i was wondering if this is also the case for groun beef or ground lamb? Or is it simply enough when its prepared in coconut oil?

Is it a good cut to eat? According to nutrition data, it has more glycine than tryptophan. Here is the amino acid analysis. Does anyone know how to use an amino acid analysis? Tryptophan 730mg Threonine 2852mg Isoleucine 2934mg Leucine 5161mg Lysine 5433mg Methionine 1669mg Cystine 730mg...

I found lamb shanks at the store the other day. LAMB meat with a bone goin through? Sounds like the perfect cut for a Peatarian. I've been looking around the internet trying to find the best way to cook it. Some say oven baked, some say put it in a slow cooker. I know slow cooking is bad for...

I asked this in another post but thought it might get more focus here. Does anyone know how rabbit meat (home raised/not fed soy) fits within a Peatish diet plan?
