@athletichunta U don't even have the facts right. He was not at all depressed. He was super cheerful, optimistic and productive as hell. He unfortunately did kill himself cuz he was in the hospital and the leukemia treatments were making him worse and due to the physical pain and the hopeless diagnosis he ended it @ the hospital. That dude was a genius and a hero to many. He also brightened countless lives with the healings that took place with his guidance.
Ever since my teens, I've eaten a low-fat, high carb diet - it's just the way I choose to eat - didn't search for any particular diet and choose that, I just prefer fruits, vegetables and starch. I can honestly say I've NEVER been depressed. I've felt bad about unpleasant occurrences, of course, but have never been depressed. Even my ex, who found it impossible to say anything good about me, told people I didn't have the mood issues a lot of gals have.
@athletichunta Yeah, dumbass, because he had leukemia from having radiation when he was younger (another great myth that dr.s convinced people was good for them). When he took chemo for leukemia, he got so sick and in so much pain, he killed himself. The autopsy showed his coronary arteries were perfectly clean, after 30 years of eating "his" way. He had been diagnosed in with heart disease in 1950's, so it sounds like his diet was pretty good.
wow...the amount of misinformation u r spreading is almost unreal. If a person is depressed on low fat, it is cuz they are NOT eating enough calories. Its more the opposite, carbs provide glucose and that fuels the brain and LIFTS mood.. If u were depressed, it was likely that u were undereating good carbs. Had u been full of fruits and good starches, depression would not arise...couple that was some exercise and you'd be euphoric.
Is it healthy to eat breakfast skip lunch and have a protein shakenfor dinner? I gained 60 lbs from stress in a period of 3yrs and its still an ongoing cycle and im trying to cut it short.
The vegetarians of Southern India eat a low-calorie diet very high in carbohydrates, and low in protein and fat. They have the shortest life span of any society on Earth, and their bodies have an extremely low muscle mass. They are weak and frail, and the children clearly exhibit a failure to thrive. Their heart disease rate is double that of the meat eaters in Northern India.
