I’ve averaged under 2 g of PUFA a day for the last 20+ years and most of that being under 1 g a day

You shall be our Queen We'll call it the pufa depletion society.

Would love to see a day of eating. My tracking app only had me that low a couple times a year.

@sushi_is_cringe sounds right

@sushi_is_cringe sometimes it seems like there's a systematic plan to poison us

@heretoday

That was one of the first practical things I did after finding Peat. Still doing it by not cooking with seed oil and limiting fast food/frozen food etc. Not being neurotic about it, but if most days it's less than 4-5g I notice I usually feel better too. Not too worried about the pufa in eggs or meat though.

It became much harder when I switched to starch and meat for me to do that with any chicken for pork fat. Unfortunately I didn't do well with sugar or even dried fruit, fruit juice. I stay with very lean meat.

@heretoday anyone not eating foods made with industrial seed oils is basically pufa depleting unless they are eating more than four eggs a day and fatty chicken and pork

In the old forum people were trying to stay under 4g/2000cal which is still my target but I've been closer to 6/2000 recently. I have to be really careful to hit that 4g number.

More people are avoiding seed oils but I have no idea what happened to the fanatics like me.

@heretoday I think of BETA glucans as inherently a kind of toxin, as they sequester cholesterol - to which, the popular mainstream view of "lowering cholesterol" mechanically is seen in a good light - making me feel nonoptimized for lack of a better word. If you are after all in fairly good health, and you are maintaining enough cholesterol for thyroid turnover into helpful, protective hormones, a.k.a the true and right way to lower it, any sequestrant or sequestrant-like substance I think would stand in the way of feeling optimal as it mechanically removes the fundamental substance needed to build desired hormones.

To add: yes! it does feel nice to know others are still doing it!

I'm going to commit this to memory and try and break my oats addiction. They were one of my first foods, tough to pass on any excuse to eat them.

@bio3nergetic I was going to say it didn't bother me but I'm glad there are a few people still at it. There could be a million people or a thousand eating this way, there's really no way to tell.

I added oats but after being really strict I don't feel great about it.

Thanks for posting. It's official, at least 2 people still avoid pufa lol

@Corngold In my mind the weirdness created the context for the possibility of unique and correct knowledge. Odd political, economic and social views fit right in.

Anyone still at it?

Was it a fad?
