New Government guidelines on nutrition

[kozmic]

Soon red meat and soda will be taxed like cigarettes and alcohol.
So in essence, the gubment don't give a ratzass about your health, but they sure do want your money.

Can I LIKE that twice?

Did you know you were a mind reader?? And a fast typer.

Just think back 30-40 years ago how hard these same guys came down on eggs, bacon, & red meat all the studies and "facts" now it turns out to have been for nothing.
maudit couillions!

All this to-ing and fro-ing on what you should eat is because nobody has the cojones to stand up and say that the real problem is that many of us simply eat too much and don't get enough exercise.

Live long enough and you will see the "experts" do a 180 on just about everything...

Best diet ever: "Eat less-move around more." guaranteed to work. Period!!

First the government can MAKE everyone buy health insurance. They now control 1/6 of our economy. More control of us on the governments part. Mark my words, this is coming. The government is going to tell us we have to eat plants. No more meat. Period. If you do what they say, get sick you can go to a Dr. or hospital & be treated. If you don't eat what the government tells you to eat, you get sick you can't go to a Dr. or hospital if they find out you didn't eat what they told you too. They can tell, if you are fat you aren't eating plants. If you have high blood pressure you aren't eating plants. You have high cholesterol you aren't eating plants. You broke the rules! Too bad, you just go home & die all the while have to pay for health insurance you can't use while waiting to die.

Just wait, it's coming boys & girls.

Dietary needs are unique to each individual. I've known about the BS on dietary cholesteral for some time, and before you know ir some doctor will be brave enough to let everyone know that those statin based cholesteral drugs are ineffective and can cause real damage to your system.

Of course, I'm not a doctor, so ignore me as you wish......

I'm one of those weirdos with perfect labs except elevated cholesterol, both good and bad. It's hereditary, and I'm damned sure I'm not going to risk what little muscle fibre I have by taking statins to "fix" the numbers.

Looks like I've been on the right track all these years.
But, is ketchup still a vegetable, or not!?

I wonder when everyone else will realize this is what is coming?

But... but... but... they're the ones that keep harping that 'the science is settled'!!

So, I guess you just pick a diet from the decade of your choice.

You lost me at "Government guidelines".

 

[pawngal]

Okay with the new guidelines I'm torn. I'm headed out to the patio to enjoy a cigar; should I pair it with my fourth cup of coffee for the day or a grain based beverage???

Fruit........Port Wine, perfect with a fine cigar
