im no expert but soy protein ...is that good for men heard its got phytoestrogens?

That's supposed to be all bullshit.

I thought there was something to it for a while but apparently it was based on dodgy/misread papers/data.

I've not checked with my own eyes but meh......

The cholesterol thing is the biggest piece of dietary bullshit to hit the civilised world in years.

Eating fat does not make you fat, eating carbs makes you fat.

yeah theres no correlation between dietary cholesterol and serum cholesterol, the original experiments were done on rabbits in the 1940 s, they fed them with high cholesterol which caused them to develop high serum (blood) cholesterol, rabbits eat fukin lettuce, this herbivore science doesn't translate to humans so it seems, when they ran the stats for humans through a supercomputer it turns out that an FEB/ulster fry is the breakfast of champions, its the shreddies and Weetabix cause the diabetes

Aye.

Insulin is the reason.

Glucose from carbs enters the blood stream, insulin is secreted by the pancreas to use it for energy or store it as glycogen in the liver and muscles, the glucose not stored as glycogen gets turned into triglycerides (bodyfat).


Keep carbs low and insulin is an anabolic hormone, eat too many carbs and insulin becomes a fat storing hormone.
