I'm getting less afraid of saturated fat as I lose my extra weight, I can eat small portions and be content with it. <br /><br />I did hear this somewhere else, but not so sure that us and mice have similar digestive systems.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-42575546371810280882009-10-27T23:19:31.012-04:002009-10-27T23:19:31.012-04:00I'm with you, littlem.

I think the fake crap that agribusiness companies have persuaded our government to continue to permit in American food have more to do with Americans being statistically more overweight, generally, than Europeans, Asians, and Africans. Last I heard, the EUC and Japan had <i>banned</i> a lot of genetically modified foods, as well as some preservatives, that we still permit over here. I don't think that correlation is accidental.)littlemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03718332143368553659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-60034264203844362752009-10-27T20:35:49.441-04:002009-10-27T20:35:49.441-04:00Well, that explains a lot of things.

I'm also satisfied with very little of them.<br /><br />However: if you put beef, cheese, or butter in front of me, I am the Monch Monster. I nom and nom on that stuff until I'm so full I'm actually feeling queasy.<br /><br />Which is why beef and butter are limited to once a week, and why I use lowfat cheese very sparingly. They're binge foods for me, and I could never figure out why.<br /><br />Interesting, isn't it, how our bodies are all different, even though we share mostly the same DNA?Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16520599099436383317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-85839649612610905852009-10-27T12:55:19.657-04:002009-10-27T12:55:19.657-04:00Cool!

It was only after adding fats back into my diet that I found it a snap to control my calorie intake. Granted, my fats come from cheese, yogurt and nuts, not beef, but the dairy fat is saturated, and I put butter in my homemade bread.<br /><br />Maybe the problem is that I'm not a mouse?<br /><br />Seriously, though, I wonder what kind of animals she used. Mice are predominantly vegetarian, and rabbits are completely so. A study of how animal fats in the diet affect a vegetarian animal would probably not have a direct carry-over to omnivores.Ann (bunnygirl)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04938134750150653386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-29146198459077319242009-10-27T10:57:38.637-04:002009-10-27T10:57:38.637-04:00I've recently become aware of a society that w...I've recently become aware of a society that works out and eats "primal." <br />Mark Sisson's Primal Blueprint states that carbohydrates (grains, refined sugar, processed dairy like skim milk and high-sugar yogurts) are the cause of "always being hungry" because your body burns through these carbs so quickly and turns it into sugar in the bloodstream. It also states that fats and proteins are what cause you to be satiated because they take so long to burn and don't cause the rush of sugar-then-insulin that carbs do.<br />And the reason we keep eating? Maybe it's the aspartame in the yogurt or the high fructose corn syrup in that ice cream that has been proven to mess with ghrelin and everything else that controls hunger. <br />I'm also not saying carbs are bad, but when all we eat are grains three times a day, on top of fruit juices, fruits and vegetables, all of which cause an insulin spike due to whatever glycemic load they have... Well, isn't our perpetual hunger explained in that?CJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-2711228438331333522009-10-27T10:56:49.991-04:002009-10-27T10:56:49.991-04:00Yeah I try to watch my sat fat intake but I don...Yeah I try to watch my sat fat intake but I don't find it makes me over eat or make me hungrier after I eat it. I like reading results of studies but then I compare it to what I experience...if it doesn't match up with how my body works I just keep going the way that works for me. <br /><br />I think everyone's body is different and we each have to find what applies to us individually. Some of the data out there fits some people but not everyone. So I say bring on the steak and stinky cheese for me!
