Giving up legumes is stupid. Better advice is "eat more legumes"

I think you're mixing up the words stupid and dope!

Giving up legumes is dope!

Ignorant might be a better word.

In for the jpgs and gifs.

Go to the Primal/Paleo Support Group. It gets stupid here. Unless you just want to hear how terrible and dangerous etc it is by people who know nothing about it and have never tried to eat a more biologically appropriate diet. Because everything in a box is the best food that we all should be eating. And the fact that most of society is fat/sick? Only because they lack "willpower". Nothing at all to do with the food we put in our bodies. :noway:

It simply means you reall need to understand the content of what you're putting into your body, and why. Paleo is strict, and if you're not well educated on why you're eating what you're eating then it could be very detrimental. Matter of fact, any diet is NOT an ideal diet for anyone who doesn't know the mitronutrition in the foods they are going to consume on the diet.

I don't feel it is an ideal diet for anyone who doesn't know the micronutrition in the foods they are going to consume on the diet.

What do you mean by that?

Geez, it's not drugs. It's just food.

I don't eat paleo, but I doubt it could be "highly detrimental." Overly and unnecessarily restrictive? Yes. Evil? No.

I am still unsure as to what a legume is

Beans, pulses, peas, lentils, peanuts, cashews.

That's what I said, horrible pea like things!

Im having coffee with flavored milk right this second and i eat beans pretty much daily. Paleo would be a prison sentence for me. Others swear by it.

If you enjoy rigid plans go for it-i have 10000000 other, more important things to concern myself over

Thoughts?

Do you really want someone to "prescribe" a diet for you, or would you rather eat foods you like? That's a question that I would ask myself. Since I don't have any health-related dietary restrictions, I just choose to eat what I like in moderation. I find that most sustainable and beneficial.

Lol I have heard the shelf life of a MFP thread is one page. Then no more information can be extracted BUT gifs are funny to.

Or HOW MUCH food we put in our bodies.
Gotta agree... it's getting stupid in here.

LOL at "biologically appropriate"

Because they are so totally healthy for EVERYONE? Wrong.

Some people can eat legumes. Some cannot. So the ones who get sick from them should just keep eating them because you say they are good for everyone? Yeah, I was stupid like that for 20 years. Now I'll use my own brain and trust my own experience. But thanks anyway.

No. Its not that I am asking for someone to prescribe a diet to me just wondering what peoples thoughts were on said diet.

I think peoples diets are a personal thing. I have had a look at a few of the recipes and they look good. I doubt I could seriously cut stuff out of my diet like cheese or sugar.

Anything that advocates the following things are however good in my book... eggs... bacon....steak

So people who CAN eat them SHOULDN'T because of your "biological issues"?

You need to study history, biology, anthropology, nutrition, metabolic processes etc then. We've been highly processed foods for less than a hundred years. If you think that doesn't impact our physiology/health at all (and haven't read any of the mountains of research that supports it) then it's you that I'm LOLing at.
