  1. yeah, false advertising? just saying ... maybe there were other reasons people wore gold jewellery ...
  2. here is another example. she is talking about nuts. she recommends not eating too many nuts because they are fairly high in anti-nutrients and also fairly expensive. it's just one person's opinion, but sth to consider.
  3. that's because your article discusses the main problem with whole wheat ie the anti-nutrients. the other is carbs. most people eat a lot of carbs, but are not active. which will cause health issues.
  4. never got into beck much. but i really like this one. and he did a pretty good collab with paul mccartney.
  5. don't take crap from anyone, bob. most of the posters on this forum are quite intelligent. even though the forum represents only a fraction of expats in thailand. but still sth to factor in. your thesis needs more work.
  6. amulets bring luck with theft?
  7. what is gold? why did people historically wear gold? as a sign of wealth? were there any other reasons? according to this site, there are "scientific benefits" to wearing gold. is it bs? https://dusoul.ae/blog/post/7-scientific-reasons-of-wearing-gold-jewelry
  8. Your article concedes that whole grains contain anti-nutrients, but then concludes that if you are getting sufficient vitamins and minerals, it's not a major issue. It could be, I guess. The human body is so complex, so I will not say that I know for a fact that these anti-nutrients are not causing major problems. But you should at least keep track of how many foods with anti-nutrients you are consuming daily, and at some point realize that the math won't add up in your benefit. One guy referenced a study in which whole wheat bread and beans were consumed with oysters and very little or none of the zinc from the oysters was absorbed. (but don't quote me on that ...)
  9. whole wheat is not healthy for the body. even without the added crap they put in that bread, whole wheat is not a health food. now the OP will accuse me of harassing him.
  10. that explains A LOT.
  11. who's on first?
  12. Are you saying bignok and bob smith are the same person? Any scientific links to back up your claims?
  13. the problem is that you are chasing CHEAP thrills, Gamma.
  14. those are the only 2 things that annoy you?
  15. sugar alternatives: - stevia - monk fruit powder - erythritrol - xylitol (tastes almost exactly like sugar) all more expensive than sugar. you can find a lot of good recipes online of people baking with erythritrol ...
  16. one prediction I just read is that russia will lose the war, Putin's regime will be replaced by a pro-American regime, Russia will become a US ally and become part of the EU. not sure how outrageous those predictions are ... politics is over my head.
  17. In my opinion, recommending stock market to older folks is unethical. Stock market is high risk, no matter who tells you how easily they made money. After a certain age, it's best to stick to safe investments in banks.
  18. i thought this was amother gamma thread tennis best sport. no contact
  19. good move jumping ship. no more dealing with PMS.
  20. Of course alcohol was involved. BAN alcohol and force everyone into Freudian psychoanalysis.
  21. I, for one, was never real. I was only ever simulated. Maybe that guy who claimed to work as an overnight security guard too probably.
  22. it's not a "Thais hate farang" issue. everywhere in the world, small shops have crappy refund policies. they don't like to give refunds. need to shop in big stores for refunds without hassles.
  23. Thanks. I wasn't even aware that there was such a massive smear campaign against freud by the mainstream scientific community. And since the mainstream scientific community says Freud is doo-doo, it MUST be true. Since the mainstream scientifici community is modern-day God, isn't it? I have dabbled in psychology and have come across the theory of "subconscious motivations" several times. So I have done rudimentary scientific studies myself that validate some of the things Freud says. I'm not saying all his theories are accurate. But I AM saying that A LOT of stuff in journals like Scientific American is doo-doo.
  24. some people in this thread got their degrees from a Cracker Jack box.
  25. If you're doing it at your home, you should take inventory of the cutlery. Especially if Gamma is going.
