So you're telling me I can eat all the shitty food I want as long as I exercise and not eat too many calories? If so then wtf is the point of "eating healthy"?

>>76411199 (OP)
Calories are what determine weight but weight is not the only part of health. You need to think about macro and micro nutrients as well.

>>76411199 (OP)
>wtf is the point of "eating healthy"
micronutrient intake for an optimal maintenance of your body
reducing inflamatory responses
avoiding IQ drops

Can’t build muscle without protein, vitamin deficiencies can be very bad, eating slop will just make you crave more slop, etc.
Of course you know this already, this thread is retarded and you are gay.

>>76411206
>You need to think about macro and micro nutrients as well.
I am not going into PhD level of research to fully understand all of that gay nigger shit, it's all about calories, I just want pussy that's why I want to lose weight.

Define "healthy food" in the simplest way, and give examples, niggers.

>>76411218
women can see your vitamin deficiencies

>>76411223
Healthy food is not a real thing. You need to stop thinking that way. Healthy diets are a real thing though. For example if you eat a low amount of carbs and sugar in a day and are within a reasonable calorie range, you could end the day by eating a donut. There is nothing unhealthy about the donut, it's literally perfectly healthy in this context. If you eat lots of other foods like donuts, ie cereal, ice cream, whatever, then the donut would be unhealthy.

>>76411199 (OP)
Yes, you got it. The only problem is that slop has a ton of calories so you can eat only very little of it. Also you need enough protein to build/maintain muscle. Otherwise you're fine

>>76411218
Enjoy your daily two chunks of goyfeed while you end up depressed and hungry all the time with high blood pressure high blood sugar brain fog constipation and a shitty gut biome while being unable to put on muscle from lack of protein. At least you won't be fat!

Correct.
>wtf is the point of "eating healthy"?
To be healthy?

>>76411199 (OP)
> If so then wtf is the point of "eating healthy"?
to avoid geting da beetus

Eating healthy is a meme, people hundreds of years ago were living to the exact age as we are now as long as they didn't get some horrible fucking disease or died at war. And all the ate was fucking potatoes and meat

>>76411223
low calorie, nutrient dense foods that can be eaten in relatively large volumes. 100g of broccoli is not the same as 100g of chocolate; not in terms of their nutrient density, nor in terms of their volume.

>>76411802
But potatoes are nutritious. Potatoes and meat is great.

>>76411802
potatoes are one of the healthiest things you can eat. same with meat.

>>76411808
>>76411810
The point was you don't need to micro manage every part of nutrition to be healthy

>>76411223
Healthy food is something that helps you cover your daily nutritient needs and not give you inflamation or anything bad, and as a bonus its also low calorie while at it.
A pack of chips has super high calories, practically has no nutrition and causes problems.

>>76411813
no shit, but not eating solely ice cream and chocolate isn't exactly micro managing

>So you're telling me I can eat all the shitty food I want as long as I exercise and not eat too many calories?

No one is telling you that, literally the most ignorant post on this entire site rn.

>If so then wtf is the point of "eating healthy"?

The human body needs nutrients to function properly; Amino acids help build neurotransmitters that help you maintain mood, sleep patterns, cognition, and muscle repair. Electrolytes regulate muscle contractions and cellular signaling (without which -- strokes and cardiac abnormalities can result); While vitamins and minerals help prevent onset of horrible diseases.

What's insidious about diet is nutritional deficiencies tend to lead to chronic diseases that are almost impossible to diagnose. The symptoms show up, little by little, overtime. And they look like so many other conditions that without knowledge of your diet you can set yourself up for immense suffering. Yeah, doing the shit diet thing may work in your teens. But it catches up faster than you realize. That's when the vague illnesses start to show up that are really diet-related.

As far away from "processed" as possible, basically as closest to the natural state that you can find growing or living in nature without human intervention, that also appeals to your taste buds, smell, touch, look.
Basically for Grug that walks through the woods, if it looks, smells and tastes good, and if you feel good after eating it, then it's likely good for you.
Bonus points if it goes well with salt (many animals consume salt or swallow stones) or if it is equally as good when cooked over a fire (basically pre-digesting the food item)
That's about it, that's what "healthy food" is for me, fellow brother caveman retard

>>76411804
>low calorie, nutrient dense foods that can be eaten in relatively large volumes
This is literally the person with an eating disorder's definition of healthy food. And I'm not mocking you. Your statement is in no way correct.

>>76411804

I'm telling him that. And I do it myself. Blood panels always come back normal. Cry about it.

>>76411804
>nutrient density
Nobody who lifts uses this language. Post body

>>76411876
is he wrong dough?

or do you only eat high calorie, nutrient sparse foods that can only be eaten in small volumes (because they might kill you otherwise)

>>76411908
False dichotomy.

>>76411908
Yes, he is wrong. Your second question is a strawman, so the conversation is over

>>76411915

>Not wolfing down everything that looks like food is an "eating disorder"
herbs, I'd post the gains pirate, but that would just bump this horrendous thread.

>>76411936
Thanks for further illustrating my point.

>>76411199 (OP)
unhealthy food isn't filling for its caloric and micronutrient content. you'll feel hungry having eaten your daily need and you won't have the vitamins you need to feel healthy
a bit of junk food now and then while eating healthy otherwise is fine, eat your (healthy) dinner before snacking and you'll find you're too full to eat much garbage
