No.. This: Fair enough. Consider this: I eat a bunch of different fruits, a few cups of OJ with OO, and animal food. The calculator says that my energy intake is still not adequate(2500kcal) which also means that I haven't met all the requirements for nutrients. I still need 500kcal to reach adequat...

That's just a quick example to debate your point that without adequate energy intake, one cannot meet requirements for nutrients.

Turns out that in the example I gave, even though one consume adequate energy on the Wai diet, one still cannot meet requirements for nutrients.

Isn't caramelization simply heating sugar? Since you are not heating it with protein and/or fat, I thought it should be okay?

Say for example, a person only consume 1kg of table sugar. I was referring to this quote: I thought the Wai diet provides all the nutrients that you need even though your calorie intake is lower. Ok. Well, the Wai diet is not about consuming only 1 kg of sugar... Fair enough. Consider this: I eat a...

Right now, relative humidity is 38%, Wind E 22km/h and Wind gusts 31km/h. Is that dry wind?

Also, when you say that 80 kg men need 384 mg methionine / cysteine, to calculate whether I meet the requirements, do i take the amount of methionine divide by cysteine? The calculator is showing: -Methionine.....................................0.19085g -Cysteine........................................

I just saw a video on youtube on how sugar is made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIgavNuBRRA And I am still skeptical about consuming sugar. Firstly, there were so many steps! The machines that were used seemed dirty. How were sugar made back in our ancestor days when there were no technology? The...

Well, it's windy the past few days, but how do I know whether the wind is dry? And, it's both at the corners and on my lips.

I don't understand what's wrong with my reply that the body will increase its absorption rate for every nutrient that is lacking? Because its not true. Yes, its true for all minerals, but not for protein, fat and sugars. Why do you fail to mention vitamins again? I thought vitamins are nutrients? O...

I thought the body will increase its absorption rate for every nutrient that is lacking? This is true for minerals specifically. This was what you said in another thread: "If you consume little vitamin C, the uptake rate is high". Now you are saying its true for minerals specifically. So I take it ...

Where do you live?

It's summer here in Australia so its definitely not due to cold air.

Ok, let's return to talking about the Wai diet. Even with inadequate energy intake, I thought the body will increase its absorption rate for every nutrient that is lacking? This is true for minerals specifically. This was what you said in another thread: http://www.waiworld.com/waitalk/phpBB3/viewt...

Lately I have been having chapped lips. At first I brushed it off as nothing to be alarmed about. But it came back when I thought it's gone for good. Happened a few times already. I believe the condition is called Angular cheilitis. From wiki: studies have linked the initial onset of angular cheilit...

Regarding this sentence especially the bolded part from the free book page 20: Comparing minimal requirements for essential amino acids to fruit amino acid contents, it appears that even if you ate only different fruits and some Brazil nuts , you would lack energy before you could possibly lack prot...
