Actually under the cover, animals also use bio-chemicals to defend themselves or attack their prey. For example, the secretion of adrenalin triggers the fight or flight reaction in humans, which gives the humans/animals a temporary boost in strength and energy to defeat or escape from the predator. Animals like venomous snakes use venom (bio-chemical) to attack its victims and defend itself from its predators. The higher up one goes in the food chain of living things, the more under-the-cover the bio-chemical weapons become.

[@rationable]

That’s an interesting perspective and quite true.

[@mariomenezes1153]

@@annsgal2025 Not quite the same. Plants have no other form of defense. They cannot get up and run away. All they can do is make themselves unappealing to potential aggressors. They use their bio weapons to do this. A lot of animals can just fight back (lions, Tigers, Bulls) or run away (deer). The adrenaline is more of a signal for their body to flee than to make them unappetizing to a predator. Lions and Tigers will still eat a deer even if it is pumped with adrenaline from the chase.

The idea that poor people reproduce meat and eat forever is a total fallacy. Born and brought up in remote village amongst ordinary poor farmers around me. People ate their livestock very rarely. If some relatives come home or if there is a function or some special occasion. Also , you tend to forget the so called daal is also grown !!! Not just 140 rs kilo.. who grows it ?? Farmers of course. It's common practice for a farmer to keep one batch of his harvest first for home consumption and sell the rest. Only eggs are commonly consumed. Also selling the idea of there is no difference between meat and veg in terms of chemicals is pure nonsense. Red meat consumption is heavily associated with several cancers, mainly colorectal cancer. I am not sure two engineers sitting together and speaking authoritatively about medical science is a good idea to propagate rationality. There are several bunch of professional atheist+ rationalists who tried these in West. This looks like their Indian imitation. Atheist or theist you can debate till cows come home. The utility of many things are not apparent at surface level. If only we accept rationality and leave God, eat non veg, break societal norms blah blah then we can all live peacefully ever , is a wishful thinking. And not based in any empiricism. Same is true with Converse I will give you that. Being very religious and submissive has is share of fault in rigidifying the society. Also please strawmanning ayurveda , finding only the worst examples of quake KZbin naturopaths.. there is a field called integrative medicine. This is the way forward. Combined research of all options. Not in silos. In this, ayurved doctors are also at fault. They don't put effort to integrate it with mainstream science either due to lack of funds or due to lack of interest. Do they think Charaka or sushruths would have stayed away from SEM or Microscopes if they existed during their time. One top dermatologist tried this integration for a disease without known treatment in chemical medicine. opendigest.in/dr-narahari-emphasises-integrative-medicine-for-successful-lymphatic-filariasis-treatment-at-who-summit/

Colon cancer is caused by undigested sugar reaching colon and fermenting there. Dietary fiber and it's byproducts irritate the gut lining and if it happens for a long time, things can get out of hand. The theory about burned meat causing cancer is pointless because humans discovered the fire very long ago and have been eating partially burned meat for a long time too. The only recent change in dietary behaviour is excess dietary fiber along with excess sugar. Along with unprecedented amount of plant toxins irritating the gut.

[@rationable]

@amanthatthinks I’d love to see the evidence for the claims you have cited here. Dietary fiber are primarily digested by the gut bacteria and helps them thrive.

It is all about saying traditional knowledge and methodologies are BS and we who follow "science" know the best. Sorry, you are as bad as a staunch traditional system believer. Traditional system believer is at one extreme and you are at the opposite extreme. Both extremes are not good. Better be somewhere in between taking the best from both.

[@rationable]

It seems like you missed something in our conversation. We never said traditional is bad. Krish even said having fresh turmeric instead of powdered is probably beneficial. The reason why doctors don’t recommend you take turmeric instead of medical blood thinners is that turmeric hasn’t been tested to see what side effects it may have or what the right dosages could be whereas e pharmaceutical blood thinners have been. The more we know, the better the confidence of the prescription. We would love for ayurvedic preparations to be tested to see how they work, why they work and what safe dosages are.

The body keeps the blood’s pH in very tight control through the functions of the kidneys and the lungs. When this control is lost, then we have really serious diseases. However, the pH of what we eat or drink has absolutely no effect on the pH of our blood since it’s first introduced to hydrochloric acid in the stomach, which makes everything acidic, and then it’s mixed with bile in the intestines, which is a strong alkali, which brings the food and drink close to a neutral pH.

Therefore, while I highly appreciate and thoroughly enjoy the new knowledge that you bring forth, regarding the old, at best we do not know well enough.

[@krishashok]

@@devotionalsuja Fair enough. Won't disagree with regard to the point about lack of knowledge about the past. But I still think it is worthwhile calling out pseudoscientific extrapolations from the past, as perpetrated by modern day quacks looking to make a quick buck using the public's respect of the past

[@rationable]

Absolutely! Since science is merely the method of understanding nature while eliminating biases, we should apply it to Ayurveda and other forms of hitherto untested “knowledge” passed down through the generations. There is no telling what amazing things we could find, but the most amazing thing, by far, would be the ability to tell the facts and fiction apart so we don’t get misled.

[@devotionalsuja]

I agree, but (being a researcher myself) I also see the limitations of bringing down ancient wisdom to a much lower common denominator of scientific tests. To give you an example, modern science has proven that homeopathy has no scientific basis cause the level of dilution of the active ingredient is so low that statistically significant results never show up. However, when I take a few drops of the medicine and see my poop drastically change the next morning (apologies to @krishashok for this explicit example in the middle of a discussion on food!), I do not need any further evidence that at the minimum it has impact, though that may not be strong enough to throw up a statistically significant result in a double blind test or to be repeatable in the scientific sense. Even for me homeopathy does not work for many of my other health problems, but where it works, it is no more pseudoscience for me and for the rest I do no know yet.

[@rajsolanki8459]

Old ideas beliefs need to be validated or bunked in terms of modern science through research.

[@rationable]

It’s not usually that binary, but I agree with you on principle. Everything should be tested multiple times with different methods to understand its legitimacy.

[@subramaniamsrivatsa2719]

If according to author, all we need is just a bunch of molecules as nutrients irrespective of the source , then why even need food . Can we not survive on just a bunch of multi vitamin / pills according to his theory? But then, they say these tabs are only supplement - and body needs nutrients from food

[@rationable]

Technically, we can live off pills and potions that replace food. Many people do it and many have tried it. But eating food is quite enjoyable, isn’t it? Processing does get rid of some of the vitamins and minerals too. And usually, they work better in combination with the rest of the elements in the food we are eating like fat, water, fibre and other nutrients including macronutrients like carbohydrates and proteins.

[@subramaniamsrivatsa2719]

@@rationable well i truly doubt it. The common knowledge is - body absorbs nutrients from food and these pills are only supplementary , cannot fully replace nutrients from food / other sources

[@rationable]

Thank you!

[@iAmDislikingEveryShort]

39:20 very fast to conclusions hun? It depends on which type of protein it is what other foods are present with it. Red meat is digested almost as easy as water. But if you eat red meat with wheat which has protease inhibitors youll definitely get problems digesting it altogether. Plant protein on the othe other hand is largely indigestible on its own. Fat on the other hand is the hardest thing to digest because again depending on the type of fat, if its plant oil good luck with that, animal fat? easy. But because of recent low fat fad now people have less bile sensitivity, what do i mean by that? People eat regularly meals devoid of any kind of animal fat which is required to stimulate gall bladder to release bile which is necessary to breakdown fat.

[@rationable]

I think there are a couple of things I’d like to point out. First, protein is the hardest thing to digest in terms of calories. It takes around 25% of the calories consumed in protein to actually metabolise the protein. Carbohydrates are next at around 5% and fats are the easiest to metabolise, needing just 1-2% of the energy consumed. But digestion and metabolism are extremely complex processes that are not possible to simplify into one number.

[@iAmDislikingEveryShort]

@@rationable why are you mixing the caloric expenditure with the actual capacity of digestibility of the substance? Actually what you wrote is completely irrelevant with what I said. If protein is of high quality as like in raw red meat eaten alone, it's digestibility is near 97%, if the meat is fatty and the person is bile insufficient then the fat will be the major residue in stool. Now try to comprehend what is more indigestible.

[@rationable]

@amanthatthinks I was trying to express a measure of the energy spent to digest a macronutrient. What’s the measurement you’re using to measure digestibility?

[@no22sill]

So turmeric can be used as a substitute for aspirin?

[@rationable]

Not at all. Aspirin has been well tested and safe dosages have been made into tablets that one doesn’t even need to think about. Turmeric on the other hand has no safe dosage that has been determined. And we don’t know the other side effects. We know it can hurt the liver if you have too much but overdosages have not been determined with any accuracy either.

[@L5-YT]

​@@rationable...During covid i think it was ginger juice more than turmeric which doctors opposed citing ginger is a blood thinner, there were lots of whatsapp fwds from doctors requesting people not to overdo it. Actually which one is the blood thinner, I'm confused now​

[@rationable]

@L5-YT I’m not sure. But I’m sure it’s easy to find out. Bottom line is, don’t overdo anything. Too much of anything can be bad. After all, the dose makes the poison.

Fear mongering plus a side of cultural appropriation (and I’m not one to use that term, like ever, but this was a great example 😂😩)

She probably learned that from Sadhguru. One can never keep up with all the nonsense he spreads. I’m not fond of the term cultural appropriation myself.
