They say you lose weight in Japan, but I’ve gained 12 kilos in Japan, eating lots of rice and a regular diet of chicken breast むね. How do I get started on this diet?

I’m thinking of combining it with fasting, but also concerned I will miss dinner with my family as well. Thanks guys.

Found on a post about losing weight in Japan. The diet/wellness industry has done a number on us, apparently.

Low-Carbohydrate Diet and Type 2 Diabetes Risk in Japanese Men and Women: The Japan Public Health Center-Based Prospective Study

https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/file?type=supplementary&id=info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0118377.s001

Note well, the daily sugar consumption for this Japanese cohort.

https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0118377#pone.0118377.s002

Low-carbohydrate diet score for high total protein and fat was significantly associated with a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes in women (P for trend <0.001); the multivariable-adjusted odds ratio of type 2 diabetes for the highest quintile of the score were 0.63 (95% confidence interval 0.46–0.84), compared with those for the lowest quintile. Additional adjustment for dietary glycemic load attenuated the association (odds ratio 0.75, 95% confidence interval 0.45–1.25). When the score separated for animal and for plant protein and fat, the score for high animal protein and fat was inversely associated with type 2 diabetes in women, whereas the score for high plant protein and fat was not associated in both men and women.

Mahatma Ghandi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an incredible set of callouses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail. Plus, with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath.

This made him a super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.

Edit: I do now realize I misspelled Gandhi. I cannot edit the title, just know that I see it and am sorry.

Why can’t Swiss cheese be part of a fat-free diet?

It’s made with hole milk.
