Is protein actually good for you?
>>77167483Why are capitalists so obsessed with making money?
>>77167508have you tried it?
We went from 'gluten-free' to 'protein pro'. I wonder what would be next.
>>77167569we'll be eating bugs
>>77167578You said that 10 years ago
>>77167578That falls under protein. Or at least protein adjacent.
>>77167569ESL moment
>>77167483Most people need as much protein as they think.
>>77167569Fiber is the next trend, mark my words.
>>77167569>>77167798Yeah fiber, it's already a thing where people are making it an actual goal they they try and hit
>>77167483>Protein Doritos What exactly am I supposed to be mad about here
They're preparing people for a meat-less world. You'll be forced to get protein from vegan sources.
>>77167612Point out the mistake
>>77167840NTA but "Protein pro" and "I wonder what would be next" are awkward phrasings. You'd typically say "I wonder what WILL be next."
>slop, now with protein!I'll pass
>>77167580You are already eating bugs if you eat processed flours. Thats if you are european, if you are american you are probably eating something way worse.
>>77167798Fiber was the trend a decade or two ago. They even sold "fiber" yogurts to women, and to them specifically. Those yogurt were a huge low hanging fruit meme and the women were embarrased of admitting they were buying it because everyone would make jokes about the woman in question shitting herself. Good times, bring back harassing women.
>>77167798>>77167811You should eat more fibre, thoever.
>>77167483No
>>77167557What? Being needy?
>>77167883>thoeverESL
>>77167569Gut health.
>>77167483If the kikes are pushing it this hard, probably not.
>>77167883If you shit normally, if your doctor doesnt prescribe it, if you eat any amount of grains and carbohydrateYou dont NEED fiberWhat you need is energy (lipids or carbohydrate) + amino acids + minerals + other non-mineral micronutrients i.e vitaminsThese are things you can get sick or function less than optimally if you're not having them. Chugging down cellulose is for cows
>>77167569I think keto or low carb in general was last year's big thing, gluten-free is catering to a legitimate health issue; it's not really a health meme. I agree that fiber or gut health will be the next meme for niggercattle consoomers.
>>77167916>Corporations slapping the word protein on the otherwise fattest, most toxic goyslop ever>Thinks protein is the problem
>>77167483absolutelybut adding pea protein or some other dogshit to add 5 to 10 grams of protein to junk food that's otherwise 300 calories a pop? fuck no>>77167578some liberal rag just did an article about how all the hyped bug protein companies are going bankrupt because everyone saw through the bullshit and didn't want that dystopian gruel
>>77167903think this might be it
>>77167569>low fat>sugar free >low glycaemic index>low/zero carb >low calorie>high protein>high fibre>no E-numbers>probiotic >FORTIFIED with vitamins>now with added goyim foreskins >fairtrade/rainforest alliance/no-net/cruelty free>now with added Xylitol>now 100% Xylitol freeIt's all just a 20 year cycle. Wait long enough and it just loops.
>>77168108Keto never took off, same for primal or carnivore or whatever adjacent dietIt's nicher than you think and secluded into very specific discussion forums and 1k views instagram reelsThese things are very slowly becoming "popular", it's the same way looksmaxxing and blackpill went
>>77167880>Good times, bring back harassing women.When that happens, it will mean the West is finally healing.
>>77167880My wife misses those times because there was so much variety of high fiber yogurt.Nowadays, it's only prune and it tastes like shit.
>>77167483You can only synthesize 0.8g of protein for every pound of lean mass you have under ideal conditions as a maleAnyone who can't get that in 2-3 meals from whole meat and dairy simply isn't going to make it
>>77168237Wut. You're retarded.
>>77168237You have exactly (0) zero ressources (studies, lab tests, research...) to back that up.
>>77168237>whole meatSo are we just making up terms now?
>>77168237watch out you triggered the goyslop powder shills who didn’t read the sticky
remember the beyond meat shit?
>>77168730vegan slop only gets revenue from tricking suburbanites with deceptive packaging. Once US FDA finally puts the boot down on these goyslop merchants these companies will quickly die out.
>>77167829Consumerism‘s attempt to sell health as literally anything but just intuitive exercise and eating a balanced diet. More generally I‘d love to see all advertisement banned. Nobody has ever tried to sell me on just eating broccoli or a regular chicken breast because the only function of capitalism is to make us fat and retarded. Concurrently there is zero point in introducing macros to desk slobs who can‘t process it anyway because the last time they lifted something above 15 lbs was 2018.
>>77167569Why did you go gluten free if your body can tolerate it just fine?

>>77168906>spoilers on fitHello newfriend
>>77168855
>>77168915Still checks out.
>>77168942Your post made absolutely no sense in response to what you responded to. So no, it doesn't check out.
>>77167798Fiber is already old news. A lot of the propaganda around plant based diet fads was based around the supposed health benefits of fiber, and now there's a massive problem with people especially women ruining their digestion due to these diets. Cholesterol similarly, cholsterol is a proxy for ancient/evoilutionary foods so companies looking to replace them with modern foods had to demonise it. This is the basis of the whole proctor and gamble Ancel Keys saturated fat bad movement in the mid 20th century.So now we have this trifecta of low cholesterol, high fiber, fake protein "foods",
>>77167483Yes, but those aren't sources of protein
>New! Doritos Without Poison!
>>77168945>We went from 'gluten-free'...>Why did you go gluten free...Checks out.
>>77169017Nothing wrong with fiber, bud.
>>77167900newfag
>>77169177We, in this context, is a colloquial term for society.
>>77169179Nobody made that contention.
>>77169017Saturated fat does raise blood cholesterol. Depending on how your genetics it can be a problem or not.
>>77169719Your second sentence contradicts your first.
>>77167483I always do more protein than bad carbs and evil fats. No use for junk calories I'm lean and mean.

>>77169792Whats the one common thing people do daily that affects their entire life? DIET. Everything gets by you, huh?
>>77169796Yeah, you're right. The only difference between people is what they eat. All other lifestyle factors are completely identical.
>>77167569I have begun to see "seed-oil free" on packaging now.
>>77171379Post some
>>77168730Yes, I do. And fondly: I made a ton of money betting against their stock when they were at their peak in like 2021.
>>77167798I remember fiber being a big thing when I was a kid in the 90s. Then when I became a teenager it was about trans fats, then in college it was about gluten-free. Now it's about protein and I have no clue what they'll glob onto next.Most foods with "protein" written on the packaging are bullshit that don't have that much protein compared to the shitload of calories they have, that's the tradeoff. It's like when "no trans fats" really translated to "lots of other kinds of fat"
>>77171955They'll find some obscure shit. If you look at keto, that was originally some diet for spastic kids to make their brain work better and then they started acting like it would be good for everyone else. So whatever's next is probably just some shit that someone right now actually needs to eat, like how protein is good for people who work out but pointless for the kind of sofoids who buy a “starbucks high protein coffee”.
Protein drinks are fun (but I ain’t paying for that shit), protein cereal is pushing it, protein chips is pants on ass retarded
>>77172106I think protein chips could be a good idea actually. I know you can turn onions beans into something like rice crispies so you can probably make a decently tasting high protein snack. Fat levels could be an issue, but even then you're still just dealing with a chip that has slightly better macros.None of these things are bad in theory, you can just tell they'll be absolutely useless because it's big food slop companies pumping them out to meet trends instead of some business with an actual focus on health food.
>>77167508Because 'number go up' is how they derive pleasure in life. They're largely incapable of play and contentment in the experience of existence so that, even with obscene wealth, they don't know how to enjoy themselves except to make more money and accrue more resources; an insatiable materialistic appetite.It's great to have enough money to be largely free of the worries that plague so many people's daily lives; to be able to live freely and without want but to go beyond that is pure avarice. It's a sin for a reason.
>>77171577
>>77172394Dang. Nice
>>77172394>literal disc of white flour>"no seed oils"Kek
>>77167483The typical American isn't not getting enough protein. There is enough of it in the random stuff we eat to meet our needs. You would have to eat a terrible vegan diet or starve yourself for protein intake to be an issue.
>>77172419I feel like you don't understand what marketing is.
>>77167892Lmao the irony..
>>77167483It's aimed at fatties so they can keep eating their slop while feeling they got their 'teins.
>>77167483Normies making protein gay
>>77167483They have protein Doritos
>>77173575Thanks for pointing out literally the first image in the OP collage
>>77173581You're welcome.
>>77167798When I take fiber I shit a lot better. No wiping, no burning ass. It’s amazing and I’m never going back
>>77173339Sure thing buddy
>>77167483This is the result of GLP-1s that everyone is on. You cant eat on that shit, so what you DO eat, it has to be high in protein.
>>77172325Beautifully worded, Anon.
protein is not enough nowadays. they started adding creatine to squeeze out more money.
>>77175970This product in particular must be either really good or really bad since it's being spammed here a lot lately.
>>77175503>This is the result of GLP-1s that everyone is on. You cant eat on that shitNot my problem
>>77175979they are insanely overpriced imho (1,5€) for what they are. they taste alright but not better than the 0,8€ counterparts but money thats just me being jewish with money.
>>77167483Protein is good for you. Ultrahypergiga processed slop is bad for you. Getting your protein from eggs, meat and legumes that you cook and season yourself is good for you. Eating your body weight in High Protein Doritos is bad for you. Consuming naturally high protein foods is good for you. Spending $5 extra on Cheerios with 10% more protein (ie 1g more) is bad for you.It's not that fucking hard guys
>>77175970>1.5g of creatineWhat's the point? It's not hard at all to pound down a glass of water with a single scoop of creatine. Why complicate it?
>>77168237Correct message, absolutely retarded delivery. You've made everyone on both sides of the argument mad.
The reason they're putting protein in everything is pretty simple: GLP-1sGLP-1 medications are in the process of killing the junk food market, and these companies can no longer rely on volume of garbage sold to turn a profit. They have to develop new products that adapt to the new GLP-1 reality.That reality is that fatties didn't actually get smarter or change their diets. They're not counting calories or tracking macros. They still want to eat the same garbage they did before, but now they just can't eat as much. And their doctor is telling them they need to eat more protein to avoid "ozempic face". The fatty can't eat *both* the sugary garbage and a high-protein whole food; the GLP-1s won't let them.So they put the protein in the sugary garbage. Problem solved as far as the fatty is concerned.
>>77174009>no wiping
>>77176355We've had health fads before. This protein craze is just another fad.
>>77176355Smartest thing I've read on this website in a long time. Good insight
>>77167900How many languages do you speak?
>>77176355Insightful. I have a couple family members on ozempic and this is exactly what they’re doing, eating all the same junk except maybe a couple versions of said junk with “added protein” because their doctors sufficiently scared them into it.

>>77169786Yeah and he looks younger if you disregard the hair.
>Americans when they see "PROTEIN" on the box
>>77172106>pants on ass retarded
>>77176289whats the point? they can legally put it on the packaging. 1.5g doesnt cost them anything and they can market the product as some kind of new special fitness product with a 100% markup.
>>77172419>You would have to eat a terrible vegan diet plenty of protein rich vegan options.
>>77176462isnt it more about quality and not quantity. bioavailability is more important than just sheer amount of protein. plant based food usually has way lower bioavailability than animal based proteins.
>>77176427
>>77176437Yeah, like I said, nobody made that contention. Sorry, you didn't read the post thoroughly
>>77167798It's already the goto response whenever colon cancer rates get brought up.
>>77176462Of course. I just mean like a girl who eats nothing but oreos, candy, and potato chips. A vegan diet is fine but you can't just eat junk. Eating junk is fine for protein if you eat animal products.
>>77167840>wouldShould have been 'will', Alejandro.
>>77175983Ready to eat protein anything that doesn't taste like shoe and has 20g of protein per serving for 0,8€ each serving? Where?
>>77176579pretty much every lidl/aldi/kaufland/edeka here in germanistan. basically the same product just off brand or from one of their own in-house brands.pic related goes from 69 euro cents to 89 depanding on the flavour.
