Re: The healthiest food: nothing

Agree! Best to teach them "everything in moderation" and also to educate them on the consequences of eating such foods so that they can make informed choices. I know refined sugars are bad, but sometimes I will have a piece of cake during morning tea at work which I do enjoy! :D Isn't it ...

Re: Broccoli Sprouts and Sulforaphane

I hear you, 2 years can mean a LOT OF CHANGE.. but since the sprouts have like 100-500x that of regular broccoli, maybe growing them is a good way to consume them. I grow my own. its cheap and very simple. Dr. Rhonda Patrick also recommends freezing them as this amplifies the abundance of sulforaph...

Re: The healthiest food: nothing

My girlfriend has just started practicing IF. And noticing the benefits quite quickly. Does anyone know if you can go too far with IF as a female?

Re: Protein restriction diets for stem cell–based regeneration

Fred, I am very confused with the FMD requiring 200-750 kcal (kcal being a kilocalorie = 1000 calories correct?) This is a lot of calories. No. When people use the term "calories" what they really mean is kilocalories. The accurate term is kilocalories. 1 "calorie" = 1 kcal The ...

Re: Protein restriction diets for stem cell–based regeneration

What is a fasting mimicking diet, as opposed to fasting? would an intermittent fasting diet be considered fasting or fasting mimicking? Intermittent diet doesn't mean anything to me. You have to say how many hours? Days? And how many kcal....zero kcal? 250 kcal? How much protein? So instead of usin...
