It's the healthiest thing I could base my diet around. It provides carbohydrates without increasing blood sugar. I didn't know about the other parts, but it as good as it gets.


So you're admitting that you have no idea if your "healthy diet" is actually healthy, and that the foods you eat have just as many side-effects as the lettuce and carrots you so proudly avoid?

By the way, in order to get even 50% of your daily protein using oatmeal, you would need to consume 500% of your daily folic acid (1 cup of oatmeal = 106% DV folate; 9% DV protein). Seizures, confusion, irritability, sleep disorders, and diarrhea are the common side effects of folate overdose.

Of course, if you choose to get less than 100% of your DV protein (approx. consuming 1200% of your daily folate), you're wrecking your immune system, your muscular system, your psychological health, and your physical stamina.

Your oatmeal-based miracle-diet sounds like absolute shit. Have fun picking between two pretty awful sets of health problems.

Basing your diet almost entirely around any one thing is a bad idea. You need more balance. There's a food pyramid to help...


Isn't it a circle nowadays?

Anyway, balance is what got me into this situation to begin with. I'll just stick with something I know is good for me and go with that. Plus it's affordable.

As you can tell from my stance on sex, it's how I tend to deal with things I find dangerous.

I have sugar free protein shakes, too. That's where I get the protein from.

It's actually a Food Plate. And who takes it seriously?
"The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."—former Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman

You mean reject balance in favor of over-the-top proposals that most people disagree on and that are probably unhealthy* for you and others?

Whey (the active ingredient in protein-shakes) has been associated with nausea, dehydration, cramps, bloating, fatigue, and headaches.

See how my conduct to do proper research and to fact-check myself gives me a massive advantage, since I'm not just spouting uninformed assumptions and bullshit?

Calling people idiots and self-centered is probably inadvisable, serious or no. Especially since the comment was a joke.

Raeyh seems to believe that things that have any associated risks (i.e.: sex) should automatically be avoided like the plague.

We're discussing something absolutely essential to survival (healthy diet) as an example of why this philosophy is outrageous, and I'm hoping to wrap it up nicely by concluding that healthy moderation and carefully-considered balances, rather than outrageous extremes, is the best course of action in virtually every facet of life.

Oh. You guys got a bit carried away. Took me a while to get from diets to vitamins to chemical castration.

Big deal? None of those are even health threatening, except dehydration, which you can cure by drinking tons of water. Something you should be doing anyway.

Anyway, I don't see how abstinence is unhealthy. Abstaining from junk food, abstaining from sex, both are good.

Raeyh has actually openly stated that sunbathing should be illegalized, since it can result in skin cancer.

Unfortunately, it seems that he is unfamiliar with both sunscreen and condoms -- both of them miracle products which could open doors to a whole new world for him.

Sex is also good for your heart, and for decreasing stress levels, among other things.

It would be a very safe assumption indeed, but that would imply there are actually things in this world that are 100% safe. ;)

Osteoporosis isn't life-threatening either, but apparently, you avoid Vitamin A like the plague because of it.

By the way, if you get nausea, fatigue, and headaches, and you still think you're perfectly healthy, then... Uh, well, I'm sorry your have such a depressingly-minimalistic definition of "healthy"?

But if you drink tons of water, you might die of water intoxication.

Abstaining from moving will kill you due to your blood clotting.
