How, pray tell, di you break a fast without calories?

Are you going to cite them? Or just wave your hands and claim they are out there?

No. Don't. Listen to your doctor. Suggesting that someone disregard medical advice is irresponsible.

Sorry, I missed that one statement in the sea of nonsense. You know what they say about broken clocks. Care to defend the rest of the gibberish you've been spouting?

Everything you've said is incorrect. If you are going to claim that "science says " something, then cite the literature . As far as what the people you've been around have to say, given your penchant for spouting pseudo scientific nonsense, I wouldn't be surprised to see that your contemporaries spout it too.

68% will fit in one standard deviation, and 95% will fall within two.

Sigh. Paracetamol and aspirin are both deadly to mice. Thalidomide, prescribed for pregnant women in the late 1950s to alleviate morning sickness, resulted in many thousands of congenital malformations, despite having been successfully tested on mice. They pointed out that the obese, sedentary rodents found in laboratories…

This is an interesting, and plausible, hypothesis. And this is the value of rodent studies-- they are hypothesis generating. It would be easy, and relatively inexpensive, to design a rodent study to test this. Give different sets of rodents different macro split diets, and let them eat as libitum. If they all stop eating…

Yes, the dynamics are EXACTLY the same. That's why human trials are completely unnecessary. Every time they do do a study with rats, they always translate perfectly to humans

Daily mail + rat study = LOL

Actually, yes it is all wrong. Every word of it.

Are you trying to claim that two imaginary people are representative of the population?

That picture looks just like you yanked it straight from an introductory statistics textbook, with the title "strong positive correlation "

Mandatory auto insurance, health and safety regulations, environmental regulations, child labor laws, etc. I would imagine the same repercussions as those already in place for prepackaged foods. It's not as if we don't already have a precedent. Quite often. Especially when baking or portioning meats. Chain restaurants are…

None of these represent dangers. Early studies reported high levels of PCBs and other contaminants in farmed salmon – higher than in some species of wild salmon, such as pink salmon. Follow-up studies haven't confirmed this and the consensus among scientists and regulators is that farmed salmon and wild salmon are safe…

What are these dangers of which you speak? Any reliable sources or just alarmist nonsense from online woo merchants?

After several months of consuming nearly twice the amount of carbohydrates usually recommended for keto.

Why are you conflating fat adaptation with glycogen replenishment? Do you actually believe they are the same thing?

"It was previously reported that a 4 week ketogenic diet in elite cyclists decreased resting muscle glycogen by half and the rate of glycogen use during exercise by 4-fold [10]. Other studies have shown that a low-carbohydrate/high-fat diet decreases resting glycogen and the rate of glycogen use during submaximal exercise…

Citation needed.

Also "Research has not demonstrated that alternate-day fasting regimens produce superior weight loss in comparison to standard, continuous calorie restriction weight-loss plans." "There are considerable observational data on various forms of religious fasting, most of which suggest that these regimens result in transitory…

Try again. It's in the dropbox link

Pretty easy to see the methodology. Small sample size plus multiple comparisons problem = worthless. Even the authors of the study referred to it as a proof of concept and listed several limitations

Yes, the dropbox link.

If you had bothered to follow the link, you would find a link to the full text

If you haven't examined the study, you haven't vetted the source

Found the full text. 8 subjects, 5 weeks, and suffers from the multiple comparisons problem. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/science/comments/8il3p4/early_timerestricted_feeding_improves_insulin/#ampf=undefined

Sigh. These are the primary sources for the article she posted

Yes, we can see that too. No mention of controls, methodology, etc. That information is presumably in the full text, which is behind a paywall
