rosst Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I live in the Philippines in a village where my partner cooks my food and I am on the oatmeal breakfast and my weight and BP are both down, eating lots of fruit and vegetables, same as I do when I am in my Isaan village. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monosodium Glutamate is one of the most common amino acids found in nature. In abundance in all food. New studies show that it is pretty harmless too.

Nyezhov Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 8 hours ago, SpeakeasyThai said: Speakeasy asked a question regarding beer and how Tiger is supposedly less fattening than Leo beer. Would have been nice to get a proper answer from the poster instead third party armchair posters who decide to post waffle. Oh well i guess i expected too much requiring a civil informative reply from TV bar stool 'experts'. All beer makes you fat ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just stay off the Leo beer .... 10% more calories than Heineken and 20% more than Tiger !!! Whatever, enjoy the Isaan village life Again... how do you know Leo is more fattening than Tiger and Heineken. Unless you can supply the facts why post useless misinformed waffle?

puchooay Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 The amount of calories in beer is dependent on the level of alcohol. The higher the alcohol the more calories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well myfitnesspal.com search lists a 330ml can of Leo beer as 129 calories and Tiger as 130. Somebody is wrong....... Whats the saying about lies, damm lies, and statistics? ?

Hi Mike, Unless Im reading it incorrectly My Fitness Pal has a 330ml Leo as 165 Calories, Heineken 139 Calories (150 on another), and Tiger at 137. Tiger Light (watery beyond belief!) 110 Calories. Who cares really, not sure about everyone else but Leo has least effect the following morning!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough this is also the name of a reliable internet search engine. You should try using it sometime instead of these pathetic, ill-mannered, cantankerous rants of yours.

Had another look at my fitness pal, it has “beer (Leo), serving size 1 can (330ml) “ at 129 calories, but a small bottle of Leo (330ml) at 165 calories ....so it must be the glass bottle that makes you fat ? Moral of this story ? ...take all internet statistics with a grain of salt ! But I can definitely state that a large bottle of Leo is statistically lighter on my wallet than Singha, or Heineken. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lake Palmer Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 If you’re worried about calories from alcohol it’s better and easier just to eat less Would much rather save calories for something that will drug me for hours, than 1-2 minutes of pleasure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
