I'm not on the anti-big-pharma bandwagon, but I have friends who are, and they point to studies that show no relationship between statin-lowered cholesterol and reduced deaths. I'm on a statin myself, because I have a family history of high cholesterol and heart disease, being Jewish and all. But I have several friends who've gone 100% vegan, and I don't think they'd even eat one of those burgers.
I went pretty much vegetarian for a year to see if my cholesterol would improve. (It was really high.) My doctor wanted to see if it was dietary or hereditary.
Wow, I honestly can't believe this is real! The commercial is full of serious situations that don't get dealt with in any proper way - not that any commercial could or should do that. And the solution to all this? Eat some shitty fast food, which will make you feel as shitty physically as you feel emotionally. How in the world do mental health experts think this is appropriate?
I love that processed food high.Shitty fast food can make me feel great. 30 miles into Sunday's ride, I stopped at Whataburger and had a Sweet & Spicy Bacon burger, fries and a Coke.
When I arrived I felt depleted. A few hits of salt, fat and sugar and I felt like a human again. Same for all of the cyclists at the Whataburger that day.
It's like "carb loading"; doing it before a marathon is great, but doing it before sitting on the couch to watch Big Brother just makes you a fat shit.Shitty fast food can make me feel great. 30 miles into Sunday's ride, I stopped at Whataburger and had a Sweet & Spicy Bacon burger, fries and a Coke.

Maybe Watching Big Brother is the real problem.....
