Food - What Is Good, What Is Ok, And What Is Really Bad For Us


Recommended Posts

I'm getting a DEXA scan next Tuesday, should be tops. Did you get one done Birds?

Not yet, but I'm keen to. Might book in this week. It'll be purely for interest's sake; I can't see my BF changing much anytime soon to make follow up scans worthwhile. Be good to take a pic and say this is me a x%.

Edit: have increased food intake and lifts recently, so might be worth it afterall.

Car runs great, I'm just over it. It's pushing me dangerously close to depression lol

Get a motorbike - depression alleviated.

Be good to take a pic at 37 degrees angle from the passenger side window of an R33 gtst with 10% window tint at exactly 4:37pm on a day which is 29 degrees with 59% humidity and say this is me a x%.

Fixed?

Get a motorbike - depression alleviated.

That's the plan (though a dirt bike, at least while I'm restricted on my Ls) however I can do that until I f**k this car off. I'm either going to strip it for parts and get roughly $11k give or take for everything, or sell the shell as it is now for $10k neg, registered, and legally engineered.

Eat a jar of Natural Peanut butter and do squats.

Depression and car care factor cured!

I essentially am blaming part of my bad mood and HORRIFIC FEELING in my gut on organic peanut butter lol...ate like 6 rye biscuits with peanut butter last night. The last time I did that I also felt this way (last Friday). Correlation may not equal cause, but f**k it that'll do for now.

What's the difference between natural and organic?! o.O The stuff I get is the Woolworths Macro wholefoods shit, since that's the only peanut butter I've found that lists "100% peanuts" in the ingredients.

...>.> I just posted that URL... And was asking time not website. No matter! Compare notes next week!

You totally posted dexascan.com.au instead of bodyscan.com.au

Unforgivable

Natural peanut butter is in the "health food" section of woolies - where the protein bars and powders are.

the stuff you have is from the same section where the regular peanut butter is but in it's own "MACRO" branded section.

Try the Natural one.

Please explain your reasoning, other than cost. The sanitarium shit still has added salt and/or sugar. The macro stuff does not, and is only peanuts.

I cannot fathom why you suggest something with additives over something without.

Look at the label and see which one has less carbs and salt?

Still shouldn't be applicable, even if the macro one has more calories/carbs/whatever....it can't have more salt considering it has NONE added.

The only way the macro one could have more calories/carbs/whatever is if the Sanitarium one is being watered down....so my question remains, why the hell is it better than something that's purer?

TOLGA YOU BEST BE TROLLING ME BRO

I think TTT statement covers a wider area.

Organic foods aren't always natural.

orangic is just the way it's grown, sugars etc. can be added and it still be an organic product.

The natural ones have no additives

and doesn't organic shit cost way more?

OK now that I go to Sanitarium's website and look at their "natural" peanut butter, I see that it's also 100% peanuts with no added salt or sugar....I was confused given that they have a different product that is CLEARLY LABELLED "No added sugar or salt", leading me to believe that since what he linked wasn't clearly labelled as such also, it must have them added.

Now the only argument would be price, which I dare say Sanitarium is probably cheaper.

    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
