Re: Oils & Lipid peroxidation

The risk of endogenous lipid peroxidation is much higher with consuming an oil that has already start to oxidize Lipidperoxidation is a chain reaction. This means that when lipid oxidations sets in, eventually the entire oil is rancid. This is easily noticed. Hence the lipidoxidation products in ol...

Re: Oils & Lipid peroxidation

The risk of endogenous lipid peroxidation is much higher with consuming an oil that has already start to oxidize and which lack part of its antioxydants, than with consuming a whole food which contain all its antioxydants. Also, it is much easier to exceed a certain amount of PUFAS and generate non-...

Re: Oils & Lipid peroxidation

All vegetable oils contain more or less peroxides, including olive oil, so IF YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT LIPID PEROXIDATION, don't consume oil.
Oil/fat when they are in food (and not extracted) is less prone to oxidation so yes it is better to eat whole food in this regard. Don't you think?

Oil & Lipid peroxidation

If you are concerned about lipid peroxidation, then simply don't consume olive oil because it contains peroxides. http://www.oliveoilsource.com/page/chemical-characteristics#Peroxides : Peroxides are the primary products of oxidation of olive oil. Fats and oils such as olive oil are oxidized when th...

Re: fred's journal

But how do you know it's not simply weight stored in your digestive system? You can't lose or gain real weight that fast, it just seems so unreal that you'd need more than 4500 kcal just to maintain your weight of 65kg. I am on a low residue diet. But Yes, I will see if I can maintain my weight wit...

Re: fred's journal

I eat 1kg of honey in addition to the usual Wai foods. 1 Tbsp max of olive oil per day. No egg yolk. Yes it is too hard to eat 5000kcal a day, especially on a low fat diet! I don't exercice much. Exercice doesn't influence my weight. My goal now is to maintain my weight without force feeding. Ni ide...

Re: fred's journal

I seem to have reached a plateau regarding weight gain. Even with 5000kcal my weight doesn't change. Only my pulse increases. I guess my body just burn off the excess energy. My body is now in the lower range for normal BMI, whereas one month ago I was in "underweight". Still I am quite light (65kg/...

autophagy

For someone who work out in the morning, on a regular Wai diet, is there any benefit to train in a fasted state?
In terms of fat burning, muscle growth, insulin sensitivity, autophagy, etc.

Re: Wai Warrior - for autophagy

"fasting does not use up muscle-glycogen" -> You mean your body burns fat during fasting ? No, I think a bit more accurate would be -- only muscle work, as in exercising, uses up muscle glycogen. Siting around doesn't use up muscle glycogen, irrelevant of whether you've been eating or not. RRM sitt...

Re: Wai Warrior - for autophagy

Very impressive results!

When do you eat your animal protein ?
How many calories do you take a day ?
No excess urinating during the night ?

Fred you already posted those links at some point, we discussed them and concluded it's more or less nonsense. Yet you wrote : "It's obvious that saturated fats would make the blood thicker and slower, as they are more solid at same temperature than unsaturated fats." http://www.waiworld.com/waital...

Re: fred's journal

Because the (dietary) fat is thick, it will clog your blood? Are you serious? Yes, especially saturated fat. Nature uses unsaturated fat to keep things fluid and flexible, and saturated fat to make things stiff. Omega 3 oil makes blood more fluid, why saturated fat would not increase blood viscosit...
