natural fats are generally healthy and keeps you satisfied for longer and in a less crashy way as opposed to sugars/carbohydrates in general
I feel like I experience a reduced need to eat and snack when my food includes natural fats, especially when in combination with protein. To put it very simply, I’m persuaded the more healthy fats, the better, they should not be limited or demonized in the way that they have been maligned when sugar was the greater evil all along
I think fiber is way more important than people realize. I’ve been a vegan for a few years, and it takes me about 40 seconds to have a complete, satisfying shit. On a really bad day, sometimes it’s two minutes, but that’s pretty uncommon. I feel so much better because of it (I’ve also got a bum gallbladder, so cutting out animal fats was great for me, but might not be as positive for others)
Two minutes? Is that a good thing? How much time do people usually spend shitting? I’m not vegan, I do eat a lot of vegetables and fruit though. It takes me like 10s. I thought that was quite usual.
I don’t know, but for me it depends on my menstrual cycle. Given my bum gallbladder, it used to take a lot longer sometimes, but with my current diet, it’s significantly more consistent.
But it sounds like you probably get enough fiber :)
Well, I’m happy for you that it got better. But I’m afraid, from now on, my mind is going to stop occasionally to wonder about the average time people spend on this activity 😆
What does fiber do?
It acts like a pipe cleaner, basically.
Doesn’t get taken up into the body, goes from the mouth out the rear.
