Clean vs. Junk - does it really matter?

i havnt read the posts on this page... but put simply no it doesn at alll for weight loss.

now sayin that.. do get your fibre intake.. for obvious reasons.. and more serious ones.

try eat atleastttt 2+ portions of fruit and veg each.. (take a multi-vitamin jus incase.. y not)

but yer.. if you disagree please tell me for instance how your body knows the difference from where a carbohydrate came from.. from rice or a doughnut.

also you dont need to eat spaced out meals lol.. if you disagree please tell me how you can change your BASAL metabolism.

Eating processed foods and unnatural chemicals is fattening-starvation. Your body cannot process the foods but there are no nutrients in what you're eating that it needs to survive, so it takes and stores whatever it can from the crap you eat, and then fights like crazy to get rid of what it can't use or even digest. Do yourself a favor and clean it up! Eat food that's actually food, not the chemical crap the Fed is trying to pass for food these days.

Next time you go to reach for a processed treat or something in the drive-thru, just take off your shoe and eat that instead. It'll be about the same nutritionally and will save you money.

:drinker:

It's dietitian, not dietician. Dietitians are actually generally very knowledgeable on the subject of nutrition. Go figure!

Anyway, Alan Aragon is one of the most respected people in the business. And he probably reads and intelligently interprets more raw nutrition research than everyone on MFP combined. The guy seriously knows his ****.

Just pointing out real quick that dietician and dietitian are both correct. Dietician has been used since 1917.

Continue on..... (trying to catch up on all the pages)

I know a bunch of actual trained and educated dietitians. It's definitely not dietician. That's some weird combination that's like "physician of diet" that makes no sense.

Dietician is considered a misspelling.

"According to Merriam-Webster, a leading producer of dictionaries, dictionary inclusions are based on word usage. The usage of dietitian spelled with a “c” is long standing and has become more common as the use of computer spell-check systems has increased and as the body of literature referring to dietitians has increased. Spellings, of course vary by country, as common words are often spelled differently from one English speaking country to the next. As an example, the Microsoft spell-check only recognizes the variant of dietitian with a ‘c’ in the English Canada version but in the USA both forms of the word are recognized."

Regardless of what dietitians may prefer....both spellings are valid.

Well you should let all the Registered Dietitians who went through university programs that advertised their Dietitian programs, who get Today's Dietitian magazine, and work in hospitals and clinics with job titles called Dietitians that they're wrong.

Yes, dietician has been used in the past. I am telling you, however, that this is considered a misspelling by actual trained, certified dietitians as well as the organizations they belong to and the companies that employ them.

Can't clean be junk? For example, I could make a cake with butter I turned myself, flour I ground myself...totally clean and unprocessed, but it's still unhealthy.

I would say absolutely (though I wouldn't go to that much trouble) but then others would say it couldn't be clean because you had to use sugar.

Sugarcane I crushed myself and cooked the juice off?

Ah... but it's still sucrose.

But when you make this divine confection, I will gladly fall on the sword and alleviate you of it's evil dirty-ness!

Lol, quoted for the cray and "the Fed" - what does the American Monetary Reserve have to do with donuts?

Wait, even natural sources of sucrose aren't considered clean?

Clearly you both have to start investing in better shoes.

Depends on who you ask, doesn't it? Virtually anything besides raw vegetables can be deemed not clean by the various criteria used in this very thread.

those would be?

i'd consider that cake clean. totally.

Sweet. I'm starting a clean junk food store.

I eat what I want so long as it fits my calorie/macro goals. I see no reason to give up things like ice cream or chocolate.

Oh, I'm sorry. Apparently I need to be more descriptive. "The Fed" can also describe the FDA, which is the FEDERALLY RUN ADMINISTRATION implementing laws and criteria regarding the safe growing, selling and eating of food items under the United States Department of Health and Human Services. It's been my experience that "the Fed" is useful in describing circumstances involving "The Federal Government."

Anyway....
