16:8 Fasting is becoming prevalent among many doctors. 👍 But they are in a soup as they need to recommend skipping breakfast or dinner. And most people are not yet ready for either. 😜

Indian style Ketogenic diet

-
        Before even I completed reading the book "The art and science of low carbohydrate living" I realized how dangerous it is to have carbohydrates on a regular basis as the main fuel to my body. I however did not know what to eat if I got rid of Rice and Wheat. Though there were a lot of books, Articles and Videos about Ketogenic diets and recipes they were mostly from western countries. There were a few Intelligent Indians who had followed and written about their ketogenic diets and recipes. However it was not sufficient. Especially since I was a Vegetarian who does not eat even eggs.      On top of this my Wife who cooks all my food was crying after seeing what I am trying to get rid of. And my Mom and In-Laws also got to know about this and started questioning the validity of a diet which gets rid of Rice. My office colleagues also were questioning the basic premise of the diet. However eventually everybody started ...

Why men can't compare two girls seen at different times

Assume that a man sees girl 1 on day 1. Let it generate 100 pleasure molecules in amygdala(emotional part of the brain). We do not have exact measuring instruments in brain to register the number 100. An approximate image and descriptions of the girl will be stored in, say, Neuron Group 1(NG1). On day 2, he sees girl 2. Let it generate 90 pleasure molecules in amygdala. Now the man tries to compare girl 2 with girl 1. We have NG1 which projects the approximate image of girl 1. Amygdala may generate 80 molecules for the approximate images of girl 1. And we have Neuron Group 2(NG2) which compares the approximate image of girl 1 and the now present image of girl 2. ( Actually NG2 compares the signals generated by Amygdala for approximate images of girl 1 and the now present images of girl 2) Though, in reality, girl 1 looks more prettier than girl2 for the man, the fact that he could only use the approximate images of girl1 screws up the results of the comp...

Do we really understand how Carbohydrates affect our health?

When I was 10 years old my father was affected by Diabetes. He was 40 years old at that time and this was in 1990. I remember him taking medications ritually for the next 10 years. Not sure if he got any advice to change his diet but he never did. I did not realize how dangerous Diabetes is. He had pain in his left arm in 2001 a few times and Doctor gave pain balm to get rid of the pain. Little did we know that these are precursors of heart disease. On 1st October 2001, my Dad had the final heart attack and he passed away at the age of 51. I was just 20 and I could not easily cope with the loss of my Dad. I became very conscious of the importance of taking care of my health. Internet and WWW were very prominent by then and I also subscribed to WebMD newsletters and mails. Also I read a lot of articles from various websites. From the information I gleaned I started eating vegetables, Fruits and food made from Whole grains. Avoided Oils and fat as much as possible. I also did Cardio ...
