Yeah just sticking to the same stuff right now, might switch it up in a few months if I begin to hate it, but it's been working well overall.

To the mouth. I've been getting the ones in tin from trader joes, some are in oil, some in water. I should look into the ones in oil, and see if the oil is "olive oil", actual fish oil, or something entirely different.

I'm not super anal in the way of making sure I hit specific levels of nutrients per day, or eating a little too much carbs. Nothing processed. For the last month or so all my food has been: cottage cheese, smoked salmon, sardines, potatoes, red meat, salad, berries. Plus a little ice cream and trail mix here and there. Haven't gotten burnt out--yet. Had some almond milk today, pretty tasty.

Only thing with that, they replaced carbs with fat. Which is good, only that's not a comparison between saturated fat and polyunsaturated fat. If you read further they cover tests where they compare sat fat also. It shows there is no evidense that sat fat makes much of a difference. However they have some study material that shows just how bad "transfat" is. I try not to use the word transfat because not all true transfats have to be labeled on nutrition cards. Any trigliceride that is altered will most likely be a bad for you fat. Linked to inflamation, cancer, diabetes, trouble loosing weight etc etc etc. My take is this, then. Cut out the bad shit. AKA transfat or hydrogenatedblablablah(circa Sean). Any fat heated past its smoking point is ruined health wise. Just don't use it. Lard/butter are more neutral if anything at all. But they are calorie dense. So if you want to look at general health eat foods high in mono/poly unsaturated fats. And that is not canola oil. Olive oil is probably the king there. If you are going to fry, use animal fat with a high smoking point. I should really qualify my perceptions and statements. In reality I know nothing scientific about dieting, but a lot about how other cultures live including across multiple socio-economic ranges. I've deduced my diet based on where people are healthy looking and happy. Noting what they eat and adapting. Then using absolutely rudimentary common sense and saying the closer it is to being natural the more I'll like it. Love the circa Sean, blahblahblah Great method really. I'm not super anal about my diet, even though I eat better now, but for the most part I've just been really interested in nutrition and effects of certain foods on the body.

Just uploaded this to send to my friend, but you can see I'm pretty skinny at the moment.

I eat carbs now, just potatoes, and only after a workout. Protein everyday, more carbs, less fat on workout days, and vice versa on rest days. I'm 5' 10" and weigh 130lbs right now.

Decided to be a schmuck, and send a video to my friend. Did a few sets at 45lbs for chins. Once I fall out of this "fast beginner improvement" it's going to get interesting.

Yep yep. I get ancy to work out on rest days when I feel really good, but I gotta stick with my routine!

I'm still leery about some pufa, for example: Pretty interesting. I also know from a chemical standpoint that unsaturated fats are more prone to oxidize because their double bond(s), but how this will actually effect your health in terms of causing buildup in arterial walls is also dependent on the rest of the diet. If your getting antioxidants from other foods then I'm presuming it can help null that possibility.

Pretty big change. Only thing I can say is after changing my diet I have way more focus and energy. I've also made some good progress with weights in the last month or so, but that's also to be expected since I'm a beginner. The sad part is some people don't progress on certain parts at all for months. Consider yourself fortunate. J I've been able to up my weighted chins by 5lbs each session (every other day) which is huge. I'm currently at 40lbs for 4 reps. Doing reverse pyramid training. Just started deadlift yesterday so we'll see how that goes over the following months.

Scanned through some of the article, they kinda go back and forth between some view points, but still presents some good information.

I've read that somewhere. I know there is a ratio that should be used for taking omega-3 & omega-6, and Udo makes use of it.

I wasn't questioning you, I simply would have liked to read it is all. I love me some fish!

They also don't eat many carbs, I believe.

That's interesting, wouldn't mind reading the study if you remember the name. Do you remember the approx date it was done? Some of Ancel Keys work?

Sure cholesterol levels could go up, but that doesn't necessarily mean your risk of heart disease is greater, hell it could be the opposite. All the studies I have seen where saturated fat was replaced with vegetable oil (pufa), cholesterol did go down, but mortality went up--A LOT. Saturated fat has even been shown to lower Lp[a]...

American Heart Association suggests: Eating foods that contain saturated fats raises the level of cholesterol in your blood. High levels of blood cholesterol increase your risk of heart disease and stroke. Be aware, too, that many foods high in saturated fats are also high in cholesterol – which raises your blood cholesterol even higher. You should replace foods high in saturated fats with foods high in monounsaturated and/or polyunsaturated fats. This means eating foods made with liquid vegetable oil but not tropical oils. --- I don't agree with.

I should also say, writing, as I'm not done, but the jist, and references are pretty much complete.

Yes, all cells in the body need fat, some can be made, others are essential. Shit that is processed, isn't needed. I just wrote a paper on saturated fat in regards to health, verse trans & unsaturated. I'm not aware of a way we can turn saturated fats into the unsaturated ones we need. You have a ref on that? I would be interested in reading about that cycle. I was talking about fat being needed for cells in general, then saying processed fats (pufas) are a bunch of shit for your health. The paper I wrote is about cholesterol, saturated fat intake & unsaturated fat intake on cardiovascular disease.
