starch

I'm in a situation where milk is still not an option for my nutrition, so I rely on Greek yogurt and cheese, which have nowhere near the micronutrients of milk but they get the job done. I used to squeeze over 1kg of oranges into juice but lately everything at the supermarket is green and sour...

I am 29 years old. I come from adhering fairly strictly to the carnivore diet for almost 3 years. I would cheat from time to time. I started eating more carbs and more peaty things around 6 months ago. Morning wood is very uncommon for me and has been for many years. I have noticed the only time...

You hear all the time from low-carb/keto/carnivore people that the introduction of low-fat products and the governmental push of low-fat diets is a major cause of today's health problems. So I actually tried to dig up nutrition statistics over the ages. If you actually look at the statistics...

I’ve read endlessly on this but I’m still a bit confused. I did “no starch” for a few months and felt super amazing - my face got less puffy, less water weight, amazing & fast digestion. All round inlove with the results... BUT I started to struggle sleeping throughout the night? I’ve never...

Any idea why? Carbs from starch or fruits don't do it. I have to mention that the honey is raw (all honey in Germany is), and I was fairly allergic to pollen honey (clogged nose) so I switched to forest honey(?), which seemed to make the reaction go away, but it still killed my libido. Dairy...

Is microwaving a medium-size potato for say 4-5 minutes the same as boiling it for an hour? Does microwaving remove resistant starch from it just like boiling?

This post references the "Vertical Diet" by Stan Efferding. It's a way to eat for physical performance (not necessarily longevity) that has many great testimonies. _________________________________________________ Anecdotally I've found that eating meat and then following it with pineapple...

Our ability to digest starch well depends on the amount of the enzyme amylase in our saliva according to Chris Masterjohn. Salivary amylase begins converting starch into sugar within our mouths. Masterjohn believes that this converted sugar sends signals to the body that carbohydrate is coming...

I've noticed that when I eat fast, I get more endotoxin/estrogen symptoms. If I eat slowly, I don't get them. This is with regards to eating starchy foods. When I eat slowly, and "savor" my food, I end up producing more saliva while chewing. This could help by doing more amylose...

?? Is there any way you can convert the starch to sugar. If you just leave it on the counter it putrifies and does not taste very good any more?

Wouldn't the mixture of sugar (carbs in general) and fat promote the storage of fat? I would appreciate someone explaining this to me. Thanks.

Corn starch seems do go through the digestive tract undigested, but Ray Peat mentions masa harina to be OK. Masa Harina is not available in Europe so no more corn for me. Acording to Doctor Borkin gluten or gluten similar thing are in everything except rice and corn. Now what about rice and...
