I know you're not asking me but I'll just chime in anyways.
: China eats soybeans and soybean oil in high quantity.
Why?
Anti-starvation post-war measures surely has to be a part of it. Peat talked about cottonseed oil rising after the Civil War and eventually becoming a commonplace item in the 1920s-30s as other seed oils began to be produced. Fred Kummerow was working with corn / soy animal feeds for poultry. Turkeys fed corn I think he said lasted many months frozen whereas typical turkeys went bad much sooner. This enabled the military to increase overseas occupation in WWII and secure a food supply.I'm not sure about China or Russia but I believe the Cold War was a fake crisis that involved lots of high level officials and bureaucrats trading information and technology with "enemy" states (USSR). Or maybe all of this food and nutrition technology was already available?
Anyways, soybeans grow natively in China. The oils seem to be a western export though. Water is added to meat and other items to increase weight which gives the producer more profit. I'm imagining that seed oil is pumped into everything in order to maximize profits because all shipping goes by weight.

I wonder if it's a coincidence someone allegedly called "STELLA LYU", allegedly from "Zhengzhou", created 124 threads of utter shit on this forum this morning. It's not very nice.

@ThinPicking LOL. Sorry to bring that plague upon your NodeBB instance.
Postscript: I don't have a good answer as to why China /continues/ to use lots of PUFA in the diet today. I wonder if their culture or science even considers it to be a problem at all, may be interesting to look into at some point. A lot of Peatarianism comes from Soviet science... was any of that transferred to China? It was my Soviet-educated parents who first told me about how glucose was important for brain function.
The very recent rise of coffee culture in China, overriding a tea culture, is also interesting to observe.

@PEATCEL natty lol. What's your definition of "natty"
-
That's bizarre. Also I can't see any of the threads you're talking about.

Again, isn't the main idea cost efficiency and government subsidies, true for any government across the world?

I levelled up my mod skills by learning you can select multiple threads under categories and mass delete them. Thanking Stella Lyu kindly for the lesson.

Probably random or keyword monitoring and me saying "China". Bigger one inbound.
Thank you both for the angles.

actually, coming back to this thread, OP is totally correct
there is some self awareness in their humor and xer is correct that most of these health influencers are absolutely shoddy looking in most cases . even the “athletic” ones like sol brah look like a vegan triathlete on a moderate dose of trt (repeating what i tweeted them). -

Danny used to be super handsome. These days he's giving off slight una-bomber vibes. He's too skinny, and I suspect he's super orthorexic and has undiagnosed autism. None of that means he necessarily gives bad advice though.

@jd_au He has always been very neurotic. Don't think its a bad thing to be a little prepared, but in his case I think it is something deeper.

@jd_au his food videos are insane

Una bomber vibe can be one of the effects of being based. Nah he isnt to skinny, his arms strong enough to do what he wants to do and to eventually lift a weapon if needed. he all good.
What make you suspect that he is orthorexic and has autism? -

Not certain, potentially he live alone, and when you do live alone and your parents are not taking Care of you, basic Instinct is to make your place and environnement safe and optimal, and be ready to what has a high enough likelyhood to happen. ain't negative at all in that case

There's a life in a day in the context of a decision to live that way.

@PEATCEL I await evidence that proves me wrong
Read and learn.
Ray Peat's writings are there for you. It's even easier now as you can find it easier to separate the real Ray Peat ideas from the misunderstood part of his ideas. As I use an AI that captured well his ideas, I am able to fill some gaps in my knowledge that I still get from self studying his writings.
But I doubt you would read enough to know, and want people to prove these ideas work by challenging them this way.
Go find a doctor or a coach to teach you whatever you think works, Don Quixote.
Sorry, no one will teach you. You learn by doing it the old fashioned way, grasshopper!
