Personally speaking I think the advice given on healthy living was well placed, and judging by some reactions very much needed.
We're all entitled to our own eating habits and preferences, but the vast majority of people are severely under educated on the subject.

The "Food Pyramid" taught and referenced for may decades now is an absolute joke and also very dangerous because it is based on pure lies.
The "diary" section was added to appease the industry, it hashno ppace in any of the recommendations made by the experts at the time, the original recommendations for fruit/veg was something like 7-11 portions per day (only rising to 5-a-day in more recent times to help combat the rise in cancers), the cholesterol warnings were downgraded from red to purple because the meat industry didn't want people confused by red warnings and red meat... It goes on and on.

Trans fats inhibiting processes of the brain that allow us to learn new information correctly, people are actually eating their way to stupidity. It's amazing!

I just thought that people here who are growing "medicine" would be more interested in knowledge of healthy foods etc. Seems like the perfect match of interests to me.

Again, everyone is welcome to their own views and actions, but try to make informed decisions once you have all the facts.
Rant over, sorry.

You can eat too much fruit too. The food pyramid has been gone for years. It’s a plate now.

Agree! And this is one of those topics I vowed not to touch on but your info is absolutely correct. Your delivery was a little better than others as well. Calling people "ignorant" will only cause resistance and push them farther away from the msg.

I spent a lot of years working triage and med surg and the number of patients with chronic disease, functional limitations, and poor life quality is astounding. Its the biggest strain on our healthcare system and 100% due to lifestyle choices. Cardiac disease, diabetes, peripheral arterial disease...I could go on and on.

But, I also agree with Amos. You cant go through life depriving yourself. I guess what I'm getting at is moderation is the key and it "should" be a simple concept but unfortunately for the majority in todays society its not. At least not until they're laying in a hospital bed while waiting to have their sternum pried open, or they suddenly realize they can longer function in the bedroom because their arteries have hardened and shut off blood flow.

Done ranting too. Enjoy your steak and beer today but have some fish and salad tomorrow. ;-)

Okay, fine, geez, if you're going to beat me over the head about it. :P

Been meaning to join, your invite is as good an excuse as any.

Love your work from what I'm seeing, I will be joining the family soon... waiting for the 1m views sale lol.

As of right now I think I will be grabbing SDK, Dreamcatcher & Copper Chem.
But that changes everytime I look at the line-up. :weed:

I had to ditch all my mums and shut down for over a year because of a scare due to a snitch.
I'm sure plenty here know the experience.
Time to build up the stable again.
