>Koreans consume twice as much sugar as the Japanese Why aren't they fat?
Ray peat vindicated low fat very high carb = leanlow carb very high fat = lean Moderate both high protein = depends on the amount of food you eat but most likely leanAnything else = either malnourishment, diabetes or obesity inducing
>>77218578Don't South Koreans spend more on cosmetics and plastic surgery per capita than any other nation?
>>77218585Aren't they also an endagered species at this point?
>>77219464Unironically, yes. We will see the upcoming extinction of a nation, much like others before have witnessed empires fall. This is one for the history books.
>>77218578>Diabetes is a major public health concern in South Korea, affecting approximately 15.5% (over 5.3 million) of adults aged 30 and older as of 2021-2022, with a high prevalence of prediabetes (41.1% or 14 million adults). The disease disproportionately affects men, and prevalence increases with age, largely driven by obesity, unhealthy lifestyles, and an aging population.
>>77218582>Obesity in South Korea is a rising public health issue, with nearly 40% of adults now classified as obese (BMI ≥25 ) as of 2022–2023, up from roughly 31% in 2014. Male obesity rates have increased dramatically, reaching 50% in 2023
Today OP realizes the nature of a photograph and how that interacts with human attention at every level.
>>77218578Korean food is very salty, so it cancels out the sugar.
>>77219474Correct. When populations adopt a Western diet, they become insulin resistant and obese. But of course, you left that context out of your meaningless quote.
>>77219483This sentence makes absolutely no sense.
>>77219500Give it a little more thinking.You can boil it down to 2 words if it's easier "framing" and "attention" then just extrapolate on how that occurs at every step from this photo being taken to how it got here.
>>77218578>sugar is le bad for youOnly pushed by big pharma. Sugar a good energy source, what's bad for you is seed oils.
>>77218578bugs thrive on a diet of sweet nectar
>>77219474>obese (BMI ≥25)what sloppy AI gave you this overview? Obesity starts at a BMI of 30.For reference, a 6' person weighs 185lbs at a BMI of 25 and 220lbs at 30
Because they don't eat as many calories as they use. /fit/ gets dumber every year
>>77219566>sneed oils are le bad Why?
>>77219632Cico has been debunked over and over again
>>77219558>Give it a little more thinking.No. Didn't read further. It made no sense.
>>77219464So are most developed/developing countries at this point. Even Thais aren’t having enough kids
>>77219653give you cancer n shit
>>77218578I have a sweet tooth and I've always been skinny. Calories in, calories out. It's about HOW MUCH you eat, not what you eat, when it comes to weight. You can eat pizza for the rest of your life and not be fat if you stay under 3k cal.
>>77219659
>>77219659>the laws of thermodynamics has been debunked over and over againyou can only get takes like this here on /fit/
>>77219653Oxidized fatty acids cause arterial inflammation.
>>77219764>responding to the stalest possible bait
>>77219464nowhere close, you just need 100 men and women to repopulate a nationlower birth rates are only bad for the upper class, which is why they import quadrillions of shitskins to keep the wages low and housing costs high
>>77218578I don't believe you're statement is true, but I also don't believe sugar is the reason for obesity.
how do koreans looks so young?is it just genes?I started taking more collagen, use retinol, wear more sunscreen but I don't think it's enough.These guys look 30 when they're 50.
>>77218578you obviously never been to a fan sign
>>77221389They eat healthier foods and they get more exercise. They also place more emphasis on family, so they have lower levels of stress.
>>77221505>They also place more emphasis on familytheir birth rate would suggest otherwise
>>77221515They aren't the same thing, but you know that - you just wanted to make this witty quip for people who are too low intelligence to actually realize that you're conflating two totally different things.
>>77221389They dont, you're face-blind>>77221520What a fucking midwitNo such thing as "Emphasis on family" without preserving the nuclear family and having kids. Just because they give their kids plastic surgery as christmas gifts doesnt mean they care about them beyond flexing on each other
>>77219592Asians have different ratings on the fat scale.Google "Asian BMI"
>>77221553Sorry, didn't read your post. Next time, don't make such a blatant strawman comment
>>77218578Because sugar doesn't make you fat.Keto diets are an artifact from US culture where they have a cultural taboo about eating sweets as an adult.
>>77221389>how do koreans looks so young?Plastic surgery.>>77221505Asians don't exercise much in general, not many gyms over there.Also family increases stress for males, doesn't reduce it.
>>77221719>Asians don't exercise much in general, not many gyms over there.Not what I said. Re-read the post.>Also family increases stress for males, doesn't reduce it.A culture is a multi-factorial conglomeration of different variable aspects, even if what you're saying were true. There are many different variables in the culture that affect how different health outcomes are presented. An example would be that a chocolate chip cookie or.brownie is objectively not a healthful food, but there have been studies that showed that people who got a chocolate chip cookie or a brownie with their breakfast ate less over the following meals and lost weight in general because their cravings had abated and weight loss results in improved blood and health biomarkers regardless of the content of the diet. So overall, even though something unhealthy was introduced, it resulted in a healthful outcome. You can't isolate a single variable and base assumptions off of that. Overall, strong family values, spending time with your family and parents being present in the lives of their children has an undeniably positive impact on overall health.
>>77221719>asians don’t exercise much RETARD
>>77218578>Why aren't they fat?because you made up that statistic
>>77221719>Asians don't exercise much in general, not many gyms over there.How can people of a the same country be so dumb and wrong all of the time?
>>77219808This logic breaks down when there is a violent neighboring nation that has been looking to invade you for 70 years.
>>77218578They are and they are getting fatter. They are still poor but it will catch them.
>>77221717no such taboo exists, dumb thirdie
