You can be lean on any diet and in any type of sports if your willpower is strong, and you can be fat on any diet and in any type of sports if your willpower is less strong. What? Anyway, my post was not intended to demean other posts (sorry if it did)- I just often wondered the same thing since lo...

The dark circles are excessive fluid (water and blood). The diet causes a decrease in water retention, accompanied by initial shifts in water-balance Do you think it is like with cellulite though where the shape of the skin is already based on this prior water retention and therefore only complete ...

And yea right, my eyesight has become worse since (yea you guessed it) tane, will that improve on this diet what do you think? Try the Bates Method, it did a lot for my sister. I recommend getting some good books out from the library about it above just the surfing the net as I have found the web i...

why are sprinters typically very lean? Hmm, I don't think this has really been answered and it is something I often wonder about. If walking burns a higher proportion of fat than strenuous exercise - it seems odd that long distance runners are so lean. However I have reconciled myself to the follow...

In some who are susceptible to acne, high intakes of clean protein have no adverse effects, but the lowest intakes of dirty protein already has. If you are not susceptible to acne, you dont have to worry much about the level of clean protein intake, so that 15 gram dirty protein may be additional. ...

Yeah, I guess this diet brings out the Homo Erectus in me...

LOL

Don't know about 'vital energy' but for centuries the church has convinced people that sex out of wedlock means burning in hell and that restraint is close to Godliness. Meditation is largely about spirituality, so some loose correlation there. The ethos surrounding celibacy does sound a bit like an...

When you're 22 degenerative disease doesn't seem that immediate (I know it is for some but in general). Even if it did, that isn't always enough to adhere to strict code of living. I did work experience in HIV research and there were many case studies where one man without the infection would knowin...

Hair today, gone tomorrow yeah exactly for almost everyone though! In my amateur investigation I completely thwarted all my previously held beliefs about hair. I learned that every hair on your head comes up during a fixed growing stage, which varies between people - could be five years could be fi...

:idea: Okay I think I know the problem: there isn't really one. So just in case anyone is interested - I think the "increased" hair loss I thought I was experiencing is due to reduced hair washing. The majority of hair in the shedding phase comes out when it is washed. Since I have been washing it l...

Sorry for asking another question but, for the last week or so have been getting occasional stomach cramps after eating. I was wondering what the most common causes are? I am finding the cause very difficult to identify, it doesn't specifically seem to be one fruit. I don't get it after eating yolks...

OK, so that wasn't my most eloquent post (poker dots and pigs..)

I was referring to the loss of reason experienced when shrouded in self-doubt.

I think you'll find those are flying pigLETS anyway, smarty pants

If a person has been eating a certain way for years, I guess it would make sence that a dramatic shift in diet, could create a settling effect. Shake a dusty carpet, and you might have to wait a little while for the air to clear. Very re-assuring and probably wise theory. It is good to be reminded ...

Do you mean 3 or 4 avocados or 3/4 as in 0.75 (which would be a uniquely particular amount)?

Thank you for the reply :) Are you seeing bald spots on your skull?[/url]. No, I have much more hair than the average person, it is only noticeable because I know myself and my hair. It may be stress-related. It may be hormonal. It also may be your destination; many people go bald at a relative youn...
