Frosted Flakes are Healthier than Avocados, According to FDA FDA says Frosted Flakes, Pop Tarts and Spaghetti-Os are “healthy,” while avocados, almonds, salmon and eggs are “not” Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes, Pop Tarts and Spaghetti-Os fit the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s current definition of “healthy” and are allowed to use the label in the marketing of their products. Meanwhile avocados, almonds, eggs and salmon cannot be legally labeled as “healthy” because they contain too much fat: The FDA’s definition of “healthy” — written in the 1990s — is based on 5 criteria: Low fat Low saturated fat Low cholesterol Low sodium High in beneficial nutrients like Vitamin C or Calcium Sugar content is completely irrelevant to the agency. As long as companies meet the above 5 criteria, their products can contain as much sugar as they want and still be labeled “healthy.” In 2016, the FDA announced it would soon update its outdated definition of “healthy” to reflect the 2015-2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, which would categorize the fat in the above foods as “healthy” fat, but to date, no changes have been made. Highly processed, sugary junk food is still being marketed as “healthy,” while an organic egg company is suing to be able to use the label. returntonow.net/2018/05/30/frosted-flakes-healthier-than-avocados-fda/

I need to return to the Atkins diet. I was on a version of it, (Protein Power), for 3 years. My sugar, cholesterol, triglycerides and the rest of my blood panel were at their best! Only problem was I became bored with it an put the weight back on over an 8 year period.

I started intermitent fasting about 1 week ago. I dont have anything to eat till about 2:00 PM. Only coffee in the morning. Then try to stop eating by 6 or 6:30 PM. Lost 3 kelos so far @ 84K now. The first 3 days were tough, but now it seems to be a lot easier. Also you seem to get full faster if you havnet eaten in 19 hours. I would idely like to get between 75 & 80 kilos.

I’m doing CrossFit. The problem is that I now work out less than before because my recoveries take about 2 days. But it’s getting better, when I first started it took 5 days. I’m also going to experiment with BCAAs to see if that helps.
As far as diet goes I eat a lot better when my gf isn’t speaking to me and I’m alone. Guess we need to argue more.
