@doopledi:matrix.org | FWIW gut microbe is the hot topic currently in nutrition and all kinds of health-related things. A healthy gut means a lot and ultra-processed foods (especially white wheat and sugar) can be problematic. | 09:58:58 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | They actually are considering giving poop transplants to people who have problems with being overweight or depression, so forth. | 09:59:20 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | A diabetes treatment too they are researching IIRC. | 09:59:34 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | Sorry if it went a bit off-topic from your original question, but I like being thorough :) | 10:00:04 |
@scammer101:envs.net | I will look into gut health too. Currently I'm eating fermented nuts isn't that enough. | 10:00:24 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | I think someone has said fermented foods aught to be good for you, I have no idea :) | 10:01:12 |
@scammer101:envs.net | In reply to @doopledi:matrix.org Sorry if it went a bit off-topic from your original question, but I like being thorough :) Np, I'm always looking for extra knowledge. now i realized how important is gut health. | 10:01:12 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | Yeah well especially for those people who are trying to remain budget-conscious... It's easy to get cheap calory heavy foods (that are high in fast sugars, like wheat and sugar as mentioned). But it can lead to other problems, including the microbe thing... | 10:02:26 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | I try to steer clear, just a treat now and then. | 10:02:49 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | High clucemic index > fast sugars > diabetes... | 10:03:31 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | * High glucemic index > fast sugars > diabetes... | 10:03:38 |
@scammer101:envs.net | Which brings me to other question is high gi bad even if i don't have diabetes. I mean does more insulin release cause problems | 10:04:13 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | Depends... On whether you burn those calories for example | 10:04:35 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | But quick changes in blood sugar can lead to problems short and long term | 10:04:47 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | Quick increases in blood sugar can affect mood, increase appetite (because they are burned away quickly), put some strain on the liver. | 10:05:55 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | Whole grain is considered good. Oats are considered good. | 10:06:16 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | Keeps you going for longer. | 10:06:20 |
@scammer101:envs.net | In reply to @doopledi:matrix.org Whole grain is considered good. Oats are considered good. I'm avoiding high gi foods as much as i can. But doesn't oats contain Anti-nutrients. | 10:07:22 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | First time I've heard it. | 10:07:34 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | I mean it's not that Oats Would Be Everything, but full grain oatmeal with berries... Sometimes it's good for the tummy. | 10:08:36 |

@scammer101:envs.net | In reply to @doopledi:matrix.org I mean it's not that Oats Would Be Everything, but full grain oatmeal with berries... Sometimes it's good for the tummy. These things are not available where i live. Do you have any other recommendations? | 10:09:30 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | Generic recommendations... I try to keep them light :) | 10:10:13 |

@doopledi:matrix.org | Have you looked at the UN planetary diet guidelines? | 10:15:32 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | I mean... For some people it's tricky ofc if you don't get enough money to buy enough food, it might not help, but I find it pretty interesting nevertheless. | 10:16:10 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | One part is that... Getting proteins from plant food is sth like 20 times more _agriculture efficient_ (all kinds of economic mechanisms aside). But you need to eat a varied diet to get all the _proper kinds of proteins_. | 10:17:12 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | So in other words, meat is pretty "efficient" in having a balanced amino acid composition for humans, but you don't need too much of it really (most people in the West especially eat way too much meat for their own good). | 10:18:00 |
@doopledi:matrix.org | Meat = heart problems, arteries/cirulation, overweight (since there's a limit how much protein you can actually utilize per kg). | 10:18:47 |
