Quality of food very important!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#1 killer cancer which is fed by a high sugar diet
#2 heart disease which is due to high sugar diet
Cancer is not fed by sugar. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/cancer/in-depth/cancer-causes/art-20044714
Heart disease is not caused by a high sugar diet, but too much sugar can increase mortality in people who suffer from heart disease (there is a difference). http://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/eating-too-much-added-sugar-increases-the-risk-of-dying-with-heart-disease-201402067021
Please engage in intellectual honesty if you're going to make such claims.
I'm being honest, do your homework. Mayo clinic is not an authority on health.
Can you open your diary again so I can see just how healthy your intake is. Since I believe you average around 900 calories a day, which Ms. Healthcare professional isn't very healthy.
Now where's my ice cream!

So, you have no sources is what I am getting from this. Just unsubstantiated "truths". Gotcha.

I'm in denial, yet my diary is open, I can back up my health improvements with copies of my blood work for the past 2 years, PFT results, EKG, Echo cardiogram, and 3 different doctors. But yet you hide your diary and spout out all these claims with nothing to back them up0 -

So who do YOU use as an "authority"?
Other sources that tell the truth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I'm an Health Care Professional.
I work in healthcare as well. Does that make me an expert? Nope. Sorry but it doesn't make you one either.0 -
Food that comes in a bag or a box or a can - will and most always has some form of nutrition to it. Whether it's protien, fat, carb, fibre, sugar, sodium whatever, it's still a nutrient and can be used in a blanced healthy diet.
No food is inherently bad, it can all be part of a nutritious diet.
Also, chemicals. Lots and lots of chemicals. And therein lies the problem.
Apples have lots of chemicals too.0 -

Yeah, well he's still getting a lot more respect than you from the rest of us.
At least, until you can back up your claims with something besides punctuation.0 -

I wasn't looking for your respect. I was just pointing out that saying "I'm an Health Care Professional" does not make you correct. The fact that you are a Health Care Professional and you think the Mayo Clinic isn't a source of factual information scares the **** out of me.0 -

He's not being rude and arrogant. He's stating common sense. Making a statement and not backing it up only makes you look ignorant. Simple as that.0 -

Dr. Oz is supposed to be a healthcare professional also...keywords being supposed to...wouldn't trust/listen to him anymore than I'd listen to her.0 -

I ask because I see in a lot of diaries things like a breakfast of real junk food and at the end of the day the calorie intake is right but the food quality is soooo wrong. Not that I'm judging, to each his own and I've seen some great weight losses with this method.
Do you count every calorie and weigh you food? Do you plan out your meals the day before? I do count my calories but have never weighed my food, can't imagine it. Do you think it's important to do that and if so, why isn't counting calories enough? One thing I do religiously is plan my meals a day ahead. That way I'm not starring in the fridge or cupboard trying to figure out what to eat.
If I meet my macro goals for weight loss or muscle gain (or whatever I am doing at the time) and I am meeting my micronutrient needs, then my "food quality" is bang on Doritos or no Doritos.
For your information, I don't meet my iron needs without the dark chocolate. And the cookies are in there for a reason too.
Because cookies are a macro, right? RIGHT?!
Sometimes you need a high carb that's also a protein. And that's going to be peas or Tollhouse cookies. Sometimes you've had enough B vitamins and fiber in a day.
I'm totally in agreement.
I just would rather cookies be a macro. :bigsmile:0 -

Exactly...
I work in healthcare. Therefore I am a healthcare professional. You know what I do, I schedule appointments for patients. Does that make me an expert? Nope and I'd never claim to be one on here. When I say things as facts here, I would back them up. That's just plain old common sense.0 -

FWIW - you don't have the respect of anyone at this point. Quit trying to scaremonger and provide some sources for the silliness you are claiming.
ETA: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -
that is a tough one, I have had this argument more than once...I say good food in is better for you, they say a calorie is a calorie...so as long as you take supplements you can eat chocolate all day as long as you stay in the calorie goal...I don't think so but that is what they say.0

That's why I love those terms. So many meanings, yet people tend to interpret them one specific way, which is why people use them. You aren't lying, people are just assuming.
But no, I missed her.0
