PING John Coleman: when was your cholesterol ever over 400?!

First, I don't believe your cholesterol was over 400. I don't eat any dead animals. My TC is a shade over 2, what's yours? -- Orthorexic John Coleman, http://snipurl.com/6gj2 Perhaps you can post any previous cholesterol results on your new website to prove this claim. Otherwise, I consider you a stupid ****ing liar and all your anecdotes fall EXACTLY in the realm of testifying or testiLYING. Second, even if your level was ever above 400, it remains a post hoc fallacy. I don't know what your diet was like before you changed, but raw food alone wouldn't cause such a drop in serum cholesterol. If your previous diet included *large* amounts (and they would be excessive amounts to raise your cholesterol that high) saturated fat from dairy and trans-fats from processed vegetarian foods, then I'd understand such a drop. Losing the saturated fat -- trans and otherwise -- gets the credit, not raw food. > How come vegans > have lower cholesterol than "omnivores". They often don't. > Obviously diet is a big factor. Saturated fat consumption plays a role. Not all omnivores eat a lot of sat fat. I know plenty vegans who eat loads of margarine and tropical oils, and who don't heed advice to shun transfats. > "Although saturated fat is the main dietary culprit that raises LDL, trans > fat and dietary cholesterol also contribute significantly." > http://www.fda.gov/fdac/features/2003/503_fats.html Transfat is of *vegetable* origin, stupid ****. It is saturated fat. Not all meat is high in LDL. Too bad you make broad generalization errors and condemn all meat and dairy products rather than the bad ones, and too bad you make the same error in reverse and suggest that something is "good" just because it's from vegetable origin. >>Some dietary cholesterol, such as that from cold water fish, is healthful > and >>helps reduce LDL. > > My LDL is 1, what is the LDL of a fish eater? 100? That's pretty ****ing high for a veg-n. A healthy LDL level is one that falls in the optimal or near-optimal range. * Optimal: Less than 100 mg/dL * Near Optimal: 100-129 mg/dL * Borderline High: 130-159 mg/dL * High: 160-189 mg/dL * Very High: 190 mg/dL and higher source: http://snipurl.com/6gj6 My LDL is less than half yours. I eat a lot of cooked food. Go figure. >>Not all meat is high in saturated fats. What is wrong with getting B12 > from lean >>meats? > > heme iron , Addressed previously and ignored in your replies. Let me refresh your ailing memory: RESTORE More easily absorbed than non-heme. Dietary factors that can reduce non-heme iron absorption include phytates (found in grains, legumes, and rice); soy protein and soy fiber; oxalates (found in spinach); and tannic acid (found in teas and coffee). Calcium (found in dairy products) can reduce the absorption of both non-heme and heme iron (1). http://nutrition.ucdavis.edu/InfoSheets/iron.htm And before you make claims about vitamin C and non-heme absorption: Effect of ascorbic acid intake on nonheme-iron absorption from a complete diet.... CONCLUSIONS: The facilitating effect of vitamin C on iron absorption from a complete diet is far less pronounced than that from single meals. These findings may explain why several prior studies did not show a significant effect on iron status of prolonged supplementation with vitamin C. http://tinyurl.com/wwpr What benefits absorption of non-heme? Try meat. In one study, non-heme iron was absorbed more easily in the presence of heme iron from meat. The study showed that just eating 50 or 75 grams (about an eighth of a pound) of pork increased nonheme absorption by 44% to 57% (respectively on 50g and 75g trials). http://tinyurl.com/x8b2 END RESTORE > HCAs, Not a problem for people with moderate to low LDL. That includes you, even though your LDL is high for a vegan. > the waste, What waste? > it tastes and smells gross Peculiar aesthetics. Not everyone shares your opinion. >>Not found in meat or dairy, dumb ass. Transfats are found in hydrogenated >>VEGETABLE oils. You ****ing DOPE. > > nope, found in meat and dairy as well Did you even read that? Here, since I have to do everything for you: What is Trans Fat? Basically, trans fat is made when manufacturers add hydrogen to *VEGETABLE* OIL --a process called hydrogenation. Hydrogenation increases the shelf life and flavor stability of foods containing these fats.

Not a doctor. Not a dietician. His "findings" don't match up with the findings of research studies which implicate the role of LDL/saturated fats with Alzheimer's and other degenerative diseases -- not iron. >>from single meals. These findings may explain why several prior >>studies did not show a significant effect on iron status of >>prolonged supplementation with vitamin C. > > adding vitamin C to the diet is part of many national programs to increase > iron uptake and is effective in vegetarian diets Ipse dixit. You snipped the context of that study and made your own pretext. Incorrigible liar. >>What benefits absorption of non-heme? Try meat. > > You don't need heme iron, no one does. Ipse dixit. Heme iron is more easily absorbed by humans than non-heme. One with an iron deficiency has no business on a veg-n diet because the excess phytates in such a diet will bind with non-heme iron and prevent it from being absorbed. >>Heterocyclic, you moron. And you still have no clue about HCAs. You throw > the >>phrase around as a catch-all, when the issue is quite minor. > > HCAs are implicated in cancer, not very minor.

Sashimi, tartar, and carpaccio are all examples of healthful dishes. The important thing in handling food is to make sure things are clean. BTW, I've not read much about widespread infection from eating raw meat. I *have* read plenty about infections from raw produce lately. What's up with that? >>Psychosomatic (heavy emphasis on PSYCHO). > > Look you've posted serious factual errors in this one. Nope. None. The only area in which you have any room to wiggle is that a *small* amount of transfats are found in some dairy and meat products; transfats, though, most significantly come from hydrogenated vegetable oils. That's why so many veg-ns continue to have problems with elevated LDL. > Why don't you find > somewhere else where it is easier for you to maintain cred?

Rick Etter 2003-11-15 But evidence proves that that is a long way from the truth. [The Animal Damage Control (ADC) program is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture under its Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). One of ADC's biggest and most controversial activities is killing coyotes and other predators, primarily to protect western livestock. Under pressure from ranchers, the U.S. government exterminates tens of thousands of predator and "nuisance" animals each year. In 1989, a partial list of animals killed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal Damage Control Program included 86,502 coyotes, 7,158 foxes, 236 black bears, 1,220 bobcats, and 80 wolves. In 1988, 4.6 million birds, 9,000 beavers, 76,000 coyotes, 5,000 raccoons, 300 black bears, and 200 mountain lions, among others, were killed. Some 400 pet dogs and 100 cats were also inadvertently killed. Extermination methods used include poisoning, shooting, gassing, and burning animals in their dens.] http://www.ti.org/adcreport.html Also, though a customer might switch to grass fed beef on the understanding that he would be reducing the collateral deaths associated with his food, evidence from U.S.D.A shows that " an animal could be fed 85% grain for 60 days and still qualify under these guidelines" as grass fed beef. That being so, grass fed beef accrues collateral death from the feed grown to feed them, just like any other steer in the feedlot. [Grass Fed Claims; This would appear to be the most commented upon topic in this docket. We will not belabor all the points of concern which are addressed but will focus on the areas of concern to our cooperative of growers. While Grain Fed addressed specifically what the method IS, Grass Fed seems to try to define what it IS NOT. This dichotomy is confusing. We feel that you need to define both as what they ARE since that is what is motivating the consumer. While the intent of this language would suggest that Grass Fed animals are not Grain Finished, especially in Feedlots, the language as written is not at all clear to that end. In fact by allowing 80% of consumed energy to be concentrated at the finishing stage, our data suggests that beef animals could be fed 50% forage /50% grain for 70 days at finishing. Likewise an animal could be fed 85% grain for 60 days and still qualify under these guidelines. This is absolutely not in line with consumer expectations as is borne out in the website comments.] http://www.ams.usda.gov/lsg/stand/comments/mc213.pdf Also, farmers lie to their customers who ask after their product. Farmer tell them it's grass fed but finishes his animals in feedlots on grains far away. [Some meat producers use "grass-fed" to describe animals that are raised in pens on industrial feed, including corn, and finished on rations of grass in feedlots far from home. A similar confusion still surrounds "free-range," which can refer to animals that roam where they please or to animals kept in barns and allowed to range in circumscribed yards. No one regulates the use of these terms, and given how many years it took to achieve a national definition of "organic," it may be a long time before anyone does.] http://www.theatlantic.com/issues/2003/05/kummer.htm Hope that helps. |

So, you REALLY do not understand that the years and years of college-level chemistry courses I took prepared me to be able to read and understand nutrition research, which is nothing but chemistry? Since you and the rest of the meatarian propagandists have never passed a college-level chem course, I seem considerably more qualified than any of you. > ... your last bit of loonicy [sic].
