You don't eat Calories & you don't burn Calories.
An infinitesimal mass from the food you eat is converted to energy in your mitochondria. That energy can be measured in Calories.
The 'weight' you want to lose is excreted- mostly as CO2.
You hope it's fat.
Anything else is BS.
@nnyLymmaT_@amyklobuchar It's wonderful to deny Ukraine defenses so that Christian civilians (including children) are blown to smithereens.
It will teach them to be more pious.
@BillOccham0@clashreport "...๐ท๐บ that doesnโt allow such inspections by OHCHR, takeovers in Donbass & Crimea r consequences so letโs not put the cart b4 the horse."
Not sure why this is excused?? While claiming HR abuses by Ukraine since 2014, russia has never allowed independent OHCHR oversight.
@BillOccham0@clashreport "Did Putin ban opposition parties?"
Yes. Using similar tricks:
SPS: in 2003
RPR: in 2007
Yabloko: Survived but heavily pressured & neutered
He hasn't needed to ban Ukrainian funded parties recently & systematic obstruction has seen prevention more effective than ban.
@BillOccham0@clashreport Not just Navalny. putin makes sure even the slightest possibility of a viable challenger will be blocked.
Are you really convinced russia is a sound democracy?
I thought with your background tricks like those would be known to you?

@BillOccham0@clashreport Initially? Yes, active support via korenizatsiya to win folks over but post Stalin became tolerated as russification proceeded with vision of convergence to russian. Even forced at school almost everywhere in the Eastern Bloc.
@JohnnyJReilly@drterrysimpson You act like ketones aren't made in the liver using fat & even though multiple studies demonstrate ketogenesis removes liver fat rapidly & directly, it's not really a mechanism. It was hard to accept a high fat diet resolves fatty liver 'cuz fat is in the name- but it cured mine.
@JohnnyJReilly@drterrysimpson "No itโs not clear."
The mechanism for keto to reverse fatty liver (& by extension reverse T2DM) is in the high quality paper directly above. Is it unclear because you didn't read it? Perhaps ask grok or your favourite AI to summarise & explain it?
@BillOccham0@clashreport If it needs explanation, in the Baltics, everyone over about 50 has fluent russian because forced. Names even mangled to fit russian phonetics & spelling but few over 50 want to live under russian dictatorship. Language cannot be assumed to dictate politics. Same in Ukraine.
@BillOccham0@clashreport As you know speaking russian was mandatory (first language) in the USSR & on all government documentation including Ukraine & Baltics. You don't get to equate speaking russian with wanting to live under Putin's dictatorship for linguistics. Even ethnicity does not justify it.
@JohnnyJReilly@drterrysimpson The beneficial mechanism is clear for keto. In that totality of evidence, wat's the seminal study that pits these diets & shows the mediterranean diet is as good or better than keto especially absent weight loss?
@BillOccham0@clashreport That's mainly because the UN banned Human Rights inspection since the twin coups in Donbas & Crimea (2014).
But if there are plenty of independent reports credibly detailing war crimes like:
https://t.co/5Qey84TGVS
Ethnic russians are a minority in Donbas but not in Crimea.
@BillOccham0@clashreport In war, civil rights are compromised which is why Ukraine dropped 10 points due to delayed elections etc.
Isn't occupied Ukraine now 'russia' anyway? Why do you think the score is -1 vs 12 for russia? Perhaps suppression of the Ukrainian majority? -1 smells like ethnic cleansing.
@BillOccham0@clashreport No USA AID or CIA funding any more.
From trump's USA so now likely biased in favour of russia.
What contrary ratings/ assessment do you use?
All the ones I can find rate similar.
If you don't work objectively, what sets your 'feelings' about democracy in occupied Ukraine?
@BillOccham0@clashreport Glad you asked. Occupied Ukraine is worse than North Korea. Scores attached for russia & Ukraine. Read the reports for detailed scoring reasons. Ukraine was 10 points higher before putin started the invasion.

@drterrysimpson "therefore all concerns are invalid."
PS. It's both academic fraud & intellectually dishonest to quote something to attribute it to someone when they never said it.
Where is you low carb feeding study showing pancreatic harm?
@Gearoidmuar I'm still waiting for this. Are you?
@drterrysimpson Agree that a good Dr gives personalised advice to patients based upon diagnostic criteria for that patient. If you ever prescribe weight loss, it's incumbent upon you to set the Rx that WILL work for the patient. If you can't, using biochem is a better strategy.
@drterrysimpson 2. 1 or maybe 2 (out of 10) did & improved liver markers. You feel your advice was justified.
3. The rest ~8/10 didn't (You think: probably their fault?)
You should have understood biochem & Rx LCHF (& maybe said try not to lose weight.๐)
But nah, it's all about weight loss๐
@drterrysimpson ... but you have not addressed my criticism of your attempt to back up your hasty claim of harm to the pancreas from a LCHF/keto diet. If you want to do this you need to use studies that actually use that diet because the biochemical milieu caused is important as Luukkonen shows.
@drterrysimpson Further, that is corroborated by this study. While not an RCT it showed the same effect even though participants were told to eat fatty macadamia nuts if weight dropped & the study reported they ate 880 kcal/ day more yet still lost a little weight. 2of3 https://t.co/63orvpIv7F
