    Mathematically computing a trendline

    You need to objectively define what constitutes a trendline. After that all you have to do is find an algo that does this sufficiently efficient in real time. For an objective definition, see DeMarks New Market Timing Techniques (they are called TD Lines in his lingo). Or if you prefer to...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    The only connection there is between physical activity and your diet is the amount of food you can or should eat. More activity, more food (more calories). It's still important to make each calorie count, and to make sure that you get as many nutrients as possible with each and every one of...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    Some of it, yes. The link I posted was just a summary page from someone eating this way. The Eat To Live guys have reviewed over 60,000 articles in the scientific literature. The book Eat To Live alone references more than a thousand. A pretty solid scientific foundation for a diet style.

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    This is an good summary of a whole foods plant based diet (with a solid base in modern science) that is extremely healty: Eat To Live. It's not necessarily vegan, but many people that follow it are.

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    The study you quote was published in 2005, same year as The China Study. I don't think it would have been included even if they had had the time to evaluate it. It's just another study comparing one unhealthy diet with another. Just removing animal protein does not magically make a diet...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    I finally took some time to read up on this. The study that Reuters quote is flawed and therefore irrelevant. Look at the study that the article is about, and also the editorial in the same issue of The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, and the postion piece that The European Heart...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    Forgive me for being ignorant, but you posted the link to the Mercola site. You could have posted the link to the Reuters article instead if that was your point. Or to the study that the article is about. I am not surprised that Reuters will pick up a study that appeals to 95%+ of its...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    Well, you are right, Mercola is certainly not an argument. "Dr. Mercola and the Weston Price Foundation flood the internet with their saturated fat is good for you message. They produce articles with supposedly scientific references that either quote the same bunch of people (each other)...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    Thanks for making that clear. You can choose to ignore the last 50 years or so of nutritional research if you like. Should we understand that what you have written in this thread are your beliefs and not necessarily facts based on sound research? You mentioned CR and erroneously stated that a CR...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    Links to peer-reviewed studies supporting a whole foods plants based diet have been posted in this thread. Several studies also support the interesting fact that the diet can cure diabetes. I haven't seen you refer to any papers that support your claim that carbohydrates equals more...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    Wrong. All of the following is quoted from here: Foods that provide substantial protection against diabetes: • Green, leafy vegetables. Pooled data from four studies determined that eating 1.35 servings (about 3.5 cups of raw greens) of green leafy vegetables vs. 0.2 servings or less...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    Wrong. Did you even read any of Walfords works? The day 1 menu (page 292 in my copy) of the CRON diet from the Walford book Beyond the 120 Year Diet contains the following: muffins, yogurt, strawberries (fresh or frozen), corn, lima beans, bacon, kale, okra, whole-wheat bread, sweet...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    Why would anyone want ketosis? There is ample scientific evidence that prolonged ketosis has severe side effects. Kidney failure for starters. Where is the evidence - apart from anecdotal stories on the internet - that a state of starvation is good for you (apart from fasting once a year...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    Now that is a sweeping generalization (with no scientific foundation whatsoever). It's actually the other way round. <iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Jcvq63B2bOY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    The China Study is an important book (and one I think everyone should read, I frequently buy it and give it away), but it is still just one book. There are several hundreds if not thousands of other studies that support the benefits of a whole plants based diet (it will minimize your risk for...

    Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism

    Fat is fat is fat is fat. Coconut oil is just another scam promoted on the internet. More on this here and here. Plant based whole foods is the way to go :) .
