Only if your time is cheap as well. If I can make $500 in the few hours a week it takes to tend my garden, then it's better to buy off a local farmer.
Working back from a government nutritional RDA is not really the best way to shape a diet. Instead: 1: Uncover your total daily energy expenditure: BMR*activity multiplier 2: Once you have your TDEE set your macro…
Who spends 12 hours a week cleaning their house? Do you not have thumbs?
I bet it's a broken pixel on a CMOS/CCD sensor or a reflective (like aluminum) roof of a building.
A mobile device that's meant to be used ONLY in one VERY specific way that is in no way mobile friendly at all. Masterbation. Fun but pretty useless.
List out all the monosaccharides contained in a serving's disaccharides & polysaccharide content. It's so frustrating to see something like this: Total Carbohydrates: 75g Dietary fibre: 2g Sugar: 23g ... ok so what…
>Alcohol gives you a buzz by destroying your brain cells. That's totally incorrect. Alcohol INCREASES levels of norepinephrine, the neurotransmitter responsible for arousal. Elevated norepinephrine also increase…
All good critiques of freelancing today. "Freelancing" in 2043 will be very different. Of course no one knows the future (maybe lifetime union jobs will be back in 30 years?) but I just feel this is the way the wind is…
> What I do is a marathon, not a sprint The problem I see is that all the other top marathon runners around me are taking nootropics (adderal etc) to stay in the lead. Not everyone is born Kenyan. :P
Yep, partially due to technology but I also think in 30 years almost everyone will be a freelancer and "jobs" as we know them today will be very very rare.
Not sure what you mean by "wealth per person", but pretty much everything is significantly better than it was in 1970. The average North American is significantly wealthier today than they were in 1970. Compare an…
hard, hard, hard; not strong. Gorilla glass is not as hard, but is much stronger.
It's hard to show something that does not exist.
Since diamonds are actually not valuable, one would require the help of the diamond-cartel to extract any value at all. Don't think diamonds are worthless? Try selling one.
Ah yes, but then those are fat calories, not "fibre" calories.
There are only 4 macronutrients (foods metabolism can run on): carbs, fat, protein, & ethanol. So if you believe protein & fat are nutrients, then you must believe carbs are as well.
It's just a term one of the nutrition experts I follow, Alan Aragon has used to describe people who blindly follow the paleo diet. Not that paleo is all bad, but there a lot of people who get it very wrong.
Here's the explanation from an expert - http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/how-we-get-fat.htm... "Carbohydrates are rarely converted to fat (a process called de novo lipogenesis) under normal dietary conditions.…
"calories without nutrients" does not makes sense at all. A spoonful of sugar contains 100% nutrients. That link is total nonsense. For example it claims pizza is empty calories, but bread, cheese, tomatoes, meat &…
"Sugar/carbs are not something readily available in human history..." This doesn't matter at all. "...in the vast quantities we eat them today." THIS is what matters. Net calories are king, regardless of diet macro…
Yep. But even though almonds are ~20% protein, they are also ~50% fat. It's not the best protein source by a long shot. While the TEF of protein does reduce it's net caloric contribution by about 25%, that doesn't…
When you eat low-carb, your body depletes your glycogen stores (if you go as far as keto, you're emptying the glycogen and switching your metabolism to run on ketones). Every gram of glycogen is stored with 3-4g water.…
Agreed! I enjoyed eating paleo/low-carb for a while, but now I eat IIFYM and get the same or better results, because no food is off limits If It Fits My Macros. :) In the end ALL diets work, but the best diet is the one…
Carbs are NOT "empty calories", there is no such thing.
Almonds are mostly fat, and not very satiating either. I've done the paleo/lowcarb fad diets too. They just trick you into eating fewer calories by forbidding most of the food you ate before the diet. Not to mention…
