I assume this means you brush your teeth with "Tom's of Maine" toothpaste, yes?

More personal questions?

Well it's just that alcohol is considered a toxin that the human body does not need to function so I'm just wondering what your opinion is on it

I bet he rubs his armpits with Arm and Hammer mixed with the juice of a million mint leaves.

Desert Essence has tea tree oil.

Tea tree oil should not be used orally; there are reports of toxicity after consuming tea tree oil by mouth.

Dr. Ken uses SODIUM FLUORIDE.

Toms does have a fluoride free paste but even they say

Their fluoride free paste instead uses glycerin which is only mildly toxic when ingested. However the way you tell it, toxic is toxic.

They also use hydrated silica which will wear away tooth enamel.

There are non-Fluoride brands. I use those.

Also, Sodium Fluoride is the main ingredient in rat poison.

Oh, for fuck's sake

FAT KIDS WERE PRETTY FUNNY IN SCHOOL, THEY RAN AWAY AND SHOOK LIKE JELLO JIGGLERS WHEN OTHER CHILDREN THREW HALF-EATEN SANDWICHES AND LUNCHBOXES AT THEM AND THAT SUMS UP EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT HIGH-FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP NO NEED TO THANK ME YOU CAN STOP ADDING TO THE CONVERSATION NOW

Tadao · #9

I'm sure he won't completely ignore that. Give yourself 5 proving Coolie wrong points.

Dimnos · #10

I want him to completely ignore it. I want him to ignore it to the point he just shuts up about it. Probably not going to happen though.

Dimnos · #11

Oh and just to keep us on track.

TheCoolinator · #12

I'm going to make a new thread just for Sodium fluoride.

YOU WOULDN'T THROW YOUR HOSTESS SNACKS AT THEM, THEY WERE TOO SOFT TO HURT AND WOULD ACTUALLY BE MISCONSTRUED AS A REWARD. IT WAS A ROOKIE MOVE, PRETTY MUCH

I used to be very fond of those little Debbie chocolate cakes with the white icing. If I was a fat kid I'd love to get my hands on those.

Grislygus · #15

OF COURSE, YOU COULD THROW THEIR HOSTESS SNACKS AT THEM, PROVIDED YOU SMASHED THEM FIRST. IF IT WAS A PACKAGE OF TWINKIES OR SWISS ROLLS YOU COULD DO IT TWICE. BECAUSE THERE WERE TWO PER PACK. IT WASN'T JUST FUNNY BECAUSE THE FAT KID'S FEELINGS WERE HURT, IT WAS ALSO FUNNY BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU WOULD WASTE A TWINKIE.

IF THE FAT KID STARTED CRYING AND TRIED TO EAT THE SMASHED TREAT THROUGH THEIR OWN TEARS YOU WERE THE COOL KID FOR THE DAY

Grislygus · #16

I WAS ABOVE THAT, OF COURSE. I WAS OF AN ADVANCED TECHNIQUE. IF YOU QUIETLY OPENED THEIR BACKPACKS IN CLASS YOU COULD STEAL THEIR TREATS AND SWITCH THEM WITH A SMALL ZIPLOC BAG WITH CARROTS AND CELERY IN IT. YOU UNLOADED PART OF THE CRAPPY LUNCH THAT YOUR RESPONSIBLE PARENT GAVE YOU AND YOU MADE THE FAT KID WANT TO CRY BECAUSE THEIR MOM WASN'T GIVING THEM NICE THINGS ANY MORE.

THEN AT LUNCHTIME YOU WOULD MAKE SAY THAT THEIR MOM GAVE THEM CARROTS BECAUSE THEY WERE FAT WHILE YOU ATE THEIR CUPCAKE AND CHIPS

Goddamn that is advanced. The simple smash the fat kid's sugary treat was as advanced as we got when I was a lad

Zhukov · #19

There was only two fat kids in my school. One was short and fat; almost wider than he was tall, and the other was seriously obese. The short one didn't get any crap because his mother and father gave him pornography to share.

After school finished a lot of people I knew went on to get fat though. Girls that used to be so aloof because they knew they were HOT SHIT are now NOT ALL THAT because they are fat and stupid.

BONUS POINTS IF THEIR MOM HAD SNUCK THEM A SODA AND YOU MANAGED TO STEAL THAT TOO

They don't always pass through the bowels, most of the time they get absorbed and stored in fat deposits.

source? because that's stupid.

Quote:

I think the first part of your statement is somewhat contradictory. If there are "limits" then you can't eat all you want...right?

it's not contradictory. "you can eat all you want within limits." it's maybe slightly redundant? why cannot you english

Quote:

Food additive free diets are proven to produce quick results in the health of a regular individual no matter the age.

health? yes. fat? no.

Quote:

MSG is injected into laboratory rats to induce obesity. It also has been shown to increase appetite in male rats and to induce obesity in female rats and chickens. Scientists in Spain have recently concluded that MSG when given to mice increase appetite by as much as 40%.

msg is actually pretty natural (no less natural than table sugar, anyway). it's contained naturally in beets and seaweed, among other things. but why bring up msg? we were talking about trans fats.

Quote:

High fructose corn syrup is not sugar. Its a synthetic based sweetner which are grown from genetically modified corn. The phrase "High Fructose" in HFCS indicates that it has a higher fructose level.

Fructose itself is a sugar contained in fruits. I understand that HFCS is different and wasn't confusing fructose with HFCS. That said, I don't understand what sort of distinction you're attempting to make here--sucrose is a sweetener, fructose is a sweetener, and HFCS is a sweetener. By pretty much even the strictest definition, HFCS is also a sugar, and appears on nutritional labels that way.

Quote:

This higher level of fructose puts a lot of pressure on the body. There is a difference between sugar and sweetners and they have very different effects on the people who use them.

Maybe? But all sugars (or "sweeteners" if you insist on defining them differently even though they're not) have the same effects on blood sugar and insulin levels, which is the point I was making in the first place.

Quote:

Then we can also agree that this synthetic form of sweetner has a different chemical make up than normal sugar. Which would then lead us to believe that synthetic forms of food and food additives are the most likely culprit to obesity.

uh, why? for one thing, fructose has a different chemical compound than sucrose and both are very natural. for another, sugars are a nonessential nutrient. are you implying that someone cannot VERY VERY EASILY get fat without sugar and/or synthetic foods?
