>The calorie is a unit of energy. For historical reasons, two main definitions of "calorie" are in wide use. The large calorie, food calorie, or kilogram calorie was originally defined as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius. The small calorie or gram calorie was defined as the amount of heat needed to cause the same increase in one gram of water
No.
It's chemical science which has been bastardized to let companies sell food that only translates to calories in a lab setting.
The most rebel diet these days is to eat simple whole foods and primarily meat.
Simple healthy food is being attacked by 'science' nonsense.

Please explain this image like I'm retarded. Is this pro or anti vitamin/normal mouse diet?
Wyatt Baker
it appears the vitamins made the right mouse smaller
Charles Cooper
I think it's saying the mouse that was given vitamins minimized the damage BPA (a hormone disrupting compound) does to a lifeform. While anecdotal at best, and complete bullshit at worst, it does imply that under healthy circumstances the body can handle negative chemicals better.
Jaxon Flores
but the vitamin mouse has worse fur and is half the fucking size
Oliver Powell
>worse fur
That's just shine on it's coat idiot

I can't believe that obesity is caused by toxic shit. All my life I've been told it's my fault. What is the real truth? I am so confused my head hurts
Jack Hughes
>implying mice are supposed to be lard buckets
Liam Morgan
polyunsaturated fat takes up more space than saturated, poly also is easily oxidised and actually comes packaged already oxidised due to the high heat of expeller pressing, and oxidised fat takes up even more space, it is also biologically harder to remove and utilise oxidised poly fat for energy or building than unoxidised sat fat

The "healthy" looking mouse is an obese, cancer ridden idiot
The smaller one is a healthy regular mouse

>What is the real truth?
how could obesity be caused by anything other than eating too many calories? scientifically?
Landon Watson
