Low-Carb/High-Fat or High-Carb/Low-Fat Diet Improves Weight Loss, Mood
September 14, 2007 — A low-carbohydrate, high-fat (LCHF) diet and a high-carbohydrate, low-fat (HCLF) diet both improve weight loss and mood, but speed of cognitive processing improves less with the LCHF than the HCLF diet, according to the results of a study published in the September issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Glucose is the fuel of the brain.

The *******s! Does this mean french fries are actually brain food? :eek:

I suppose many things can be considered "food".
simple sugars -> the old way -> linear thought processes -> sensation of clear-headedness
fatty metabolism -> more energetically efficient -> powers multitasking multilinear multiple thought processes -> with illusion of failure to keep linear track with one's mind
fat burns in the light of carbohydrate.

ADDers with taste in sugary breakfast cereals
-> E-boy and c~f
kick start metabolic access to lipid usage by brain
->links to->
meadd823 correct suggestion of
circadian rhythm breakdown in ADDers ->
nocturnal lifestyle
or sunlight independent
and hence loss of the following
->
... 1 light -> 2 melatonin
(a sufficient simplification)
-> 3 cortisol -> (glucose mobilization from stores)
-> 4 so awaken with energetic rush or infusion
not all good though as this is also
-> stressful (CRHRs+CRF->ACTH->cortisol in HPA -> the stress reaction)
-> 5 brain food - glucose (as HF writes).
sinful carbs (as HF writes) - as brain food
- for how much longer though?
The waiter ain't fast enough and he's already on jet-pack.
need to think a little more -
however that'd all make sense - given the nature of other concurrent physiological changes
- all of which (despite first appearance as
peripheral,
disease or
apparently unrelated)
are related to -> mind
mind as their sole focus.
We're a people with a specific trajectory
- and that involves the neurone reachin' heaven
- we get to hitch a ride though
so all's good
(even if we lose our spectacles
only to find that they were on our forehead all of this time!
multiple times over
in the process

muddled.
oh lordy!
what year is it again?

we're on Earth

no???
man!

not again.
Classical religion deals with mind
Current (parochial - limited - restricted - constrained - arrogant) science does not
Previous 'classical scientific' discussions here
~even~
->doubt<-
its(MIND) existence.
... doubt the mind?
maybe question it?
... but don't doubt that mind exists
mind exists
- and is therefore *very* real
- all that's incorrect is 'real' as idea
'real' -> *is* incompletely characterized.
nothing is real- equally -
everything is real.
~that seemingly false (though not) dichotemy~

classical religion deals with mind
current parochial science does not
classical religion 1
current parochial science 0

Classical religion takes it.
The crowds erupt

Ahhh!
The teenage years
(also of relevance to ADD - most notably here amongst ardent scientists here (no names) - who have written that they do not believe in mind
... and have bad skin conditions (into their 40's)
almost as though there's a teenage period vII - related to hormonal disruption -
associated (as with the teenage period proper)
~that is~
vI
with mind (as one would expect)
and not the usual (standard) idea of 'reproductive maturity'.
I mean ...

too funny!
like a white bunny
scratching its head.
-*-
oldest Eastern religious text -> vedanta -> end of knowledge
oldest Western religious texts -> Adam bites from an apple from the tree of good and evil -
of 'knowledge'

So Classical religion takes it.
Current parochial science hanging its head in 'small picture' shame.
too funny!
we can't discuss religion here -
but watch this scientist (and the others of our kind here
(by the way) ->-
everyone's a scientist - that's the New Scientist
we all must obey 'rule of mind'
->-
... to pack it with the logically consistent characterization of 'reality'
<- or science
->-
~we are all New Scientists~
(by definition)
~ps~ you're gonna' need to buy your own labcoat though
... like, I'm not made of money
(dude)
So Classical religion takes it.

E- references an article on-line - a discussion entitled
'science regaining its soul'

it's no. 134 on list #13

Importantly
- the first religion
meets
our evolutionary legacy - of need for 'us and them'
...why was it necessary to rediscover religion - time and time again?
why???
science regains its soul (holds the answer)
There are no others.
'Them and Us' - are not real subdivisions.
It's your mind - playin' tricks.
Betraying its (the minds) earlier evolutionary directives.
Evolutionary psychology through pushing behaviour stemming from (long gone) - legacy motive.
There are no others.
1.
Vedanta - oldest religious texts
... bear witness to a very good thing
There are no others.
2. (~s~ mommy o's~b)
... and then bear witness to a very bad thing
Dark-skinned Dravidians (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dravidian_people)
vs
Light-skinned Aryans (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryan)
but ...
There are no others.
what're your doing ... guys?
3.
The sound of a belief system losing its soul.
man!
BUT!!!
There are no others.
really - stop!!!
what're your doing ... ... ...guys?
There are no others!!!
That'd be real stupid!
oh well!

light vs dark (skinned yes) -
but generalizng across our rrreality -
- the secret revealed?
No light without dark?
light+dark -> emergent evolution of duals.
Evolution wouldn't work without some aspect of character representing an 'opposite' (everted opposite) to another - in some essential tightly defined
- structural
way.
And yes - the 'tango' of emergence is violent -
but now we see
?how so?
... we switch the internal feelings of fear - away from need to hurt the
'others'
... there are no others.
There are no others!!!
... and understand ourselves (in context).

We have been really *so* bad.
... really *so* bad
inadvertently so
