U like it

Cingulate posted:

As has been pointed out to you before, you are distorting the argument.

Nobody is saying "if you eat bad food, you get fat, and if you eat good food, you'll be good, no matter the calories". The claim is that some food is comparatively more conductive to eating the right calories, and other food makes it much harder.

Yup

Also fat acceptance is bogus and if anyone feels strongly to the contrary

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20460905

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21726509

from the latter:

quote:

The percentage of patients undergoing a liver transplant for NASH increased from 1.2% in 2001 to 9.7% in 2009. NASH is now the third most common indication for liver transplantation in the United States. No other indication for liver transplantation increased in frequency during the study period. Compared with other indications for liver transplantation, recipients with NASH are older (58.5±8.0 vs 53.0±8.9 years; P<.001), have a larger body mass index (>30 kg/m2) ...

NASH = non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, i.e. fatty liver disease caused by metabolic syndrome (eating yourself to death) that has progressed to end stage organ disease. Those numbers are terrifying.
