Salubrious Living - Do we need it?

i see your[e] point brother,and can appreciate what it is you[']re saying.

My only objection to SL was that it seems that a fruitarian diet ingnores the evidence for other diet systems such as Paleolithic Diet etc. If you are going to discuss the merits of a a diet I think the only thing relevant is the SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE.

SL is not up for debate. It is not a Holy Book, but rather an out of date (circa 1948) rough guide to eating healthy. That is all and that is why it is not up for debate. Anyone following the diet as it is written would be a fool as they would be severely deficient in many nutritional aspects - just as anyone living their life on a combination of greaseball burgers, caffeine, sugar and diet pills would be deficient in other nutritional aspects.

I'm currently reading SL and think it sounds great and kind of reminds me of the Gracie diet from more recent times.

I don't know a lot about diets but The Gracies dominated the early days of cage fighting and they promote a fruit diet although not exclusively. But it is very similar so far.

Has anyone tried fasting?

Does that really benefit you?

Sorry if this counts as continuing the debate but I'm a fan of the book and want some opinions on fasting before I try it.

I found the book argument for fasting very convincing

Thank you and all comments appreciated.

No, you are asking genuine questions rather than debating how we should make changes to a dietary book that no matter how correct we are able to get it, will never be correct as trends change and information is gained. (That's why it's not up for debate.)

Since I mostly work from home, fasting is no problem for me. I don't need to wake up in the morning, break my fast and choke down bacon and eggs, and cereal before running off to a hectic day of work. So I am able to eat when I choose and even fast when I choose.

As for the benefits of fasting: I have fasted on many an occasion and found that it really does not do anything at all. But for me, fasting is perfectly natural. Most days I eat barely once per day - and that is usually in the evening. Other days I just don't feel the need to eat, so it's just a liquid diet of water. Most of the time I fast without really thinking about it. If there are any benefits to fasting that I have found, it is purely part of the dietary function.

Ah... SL. As it is a book co-authored by Beloved Founder we should of course read it and consider it. However, when you read the further supplementary books of Creativity you will see that Beloved Founder himself did not place SL very highly in the Creative lifestyle. Some of his meals at Shoney's and other establishments I have not touched since my teen years (when I could get away with it and not put on the pounds!)

It works for some Creators and others can't abide by it. It is one of those areas of Creativity which one can take or leave as Beloved Founder himself largely left.

Matt, however, lived salubriously and it brought him benefit so it really depends on the Creator.

Try it, you may find it beneficial to you. It is not a law or a rule but rather a guideline. I find an occasional fast to be a good "recharge", but I have never completely abandoned meat eating in favor of fruits and nuts.

My rule of thumb is not to eat anything with nearly the same DNA. I don't eat other primates nor other carnivores, swine is consumed sparingly as are the hoofed mammals. Once I get below the 50% similar DNA threshold I consume it all - all fowl, red or white meat and fish of all sorts. A lot of good lean protein is found there. Still if you ever invited me for a good steak dinner or a BBQ, I would not turn it down!

I think, every white man, every member of Creativity must live healthly... must conduct active life , run, swim, healthly eating, or whatever.

I think Creativity could not be base on reads some books and feel good of being White, moreover important is healthy life. When i saw some people of that, they looks like slouches. Our enemies niggers or Left Side will train non-stop.
