Third she talks about the “right form” of carbohydrates, she talks about what sort of food one gets it from which is correlated to the fiber composition and the impact on absorption, yes this is a good point but she forgets about mentioning the biochemical forms eg fructose is more slowly absorbed than glucose due to the fact that fructose do not have secondarily active transport. And end result is that all sugars (except polysaccharides like cellulose) gets metabolised to glucose

First: Being a …
First: Being a vegetarian is something evolutionary unnatural for our body and a pure vegan will eventually suffer from nutritional deficiencies and eventually become anemic (pernicious anemia). Second: the first statement is correct BUT the body need to use energy anway so if one find out ones basal metabolic rate and finds out his/her average caloric use per day one can eat once a day and still lose weight, its all about eating less energy then you expend.

Fast food resturants such as McDonalds actually have a much higher grade of meat than is found at the grocery store to avoid the possiblity of costly lawsuits due to tainted meat. Fast food nation is a good resource

I don’t like what she said about potato chips and hamburgers. Yes, the idea is somewhat right, but it’s typical american thinking. Any real health benefit potatos have is lost in the deep frying. Bake some yourself. Something should have said about eating fish 3 times a week, and eating lean meats like pork tenderloin rather than steaks. If you’re going to eat fatty meats: once a week, please. It’s good for you and the planet. (I could never be a vegetarian, but I try.)

@Degenskonto Well, I also think that way. Though I must say: I wouldn’t know how it is for an overweight-person. So I reserve absolute judgement.
I just think it’s so sad that people think lightly of underweight, because it can be just as dangerous and uncomfortable.

I think being vegetarian is not “the best thing”. Why? Because we evolved by eating meat and vegetable. Not just vegetable.
I think the heathiest diet is what your body tells you what it need. If you feel the need of vegetables, eat vegetable, if you feel the need of meat, eat meat. But do not eat the same food every day (or too much of it).
Eat everything! =)
