🚨HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT!🚨 After tons of hard work, I'm extremely excited to launch the nutriDex web app! It features all the core functionality of the original nutriDex spreadsheet, but now with an ergonomic design! At just $3.99/mo, it's available at a fraction of what similar apps charge! uprootnutrition.com/nutridex Drag and drop foods to groups, and drag groups to rearrange them. You get to decide how to organize and name your data. Save your collections to be recalled for later! It doesn't matter if you're saving a combination of foods, a recipe, a day of eating, a week of eating, etc. The collections system is agnostic to the type of collection you save! Foods are analyzed according to three different scoring systems; weight (nutrition/g), servings (nutrition/serving), and calories (nutrition/kcal). Unlike most ranking tools, which assume your values, YOU get to choose which denominator is best! You also get detailed feedback about where your food selections land with respect to FODMAP content, glycemic index, glycemic load, satiety, and PRAL score! Unlike other nutrition analysis tools, the nutriDex automatically adjusts nutrient yield and scoring for bioavailability, absorption caps, and metabolic conversion inefficiencies based on rigorous scientific data. That way you get a more accurate assessment of how much nutrition foods are actually providing compared to other apps! DRIs are also personalized based on the user's age, sex, and weight. That way you get a nutrition analysis that is relevant and unique to you! The nutriDex also provides incredibly granular information about key nutrient ratios users may consider important! This level of detail is straight up missing from pretty much all other nutrition analysis apps.

@MrBurnzBDX @Low_Key_Low_Key @TheCriticalDri2 Is that really what we want? I mean, I'll speak for myself here, but I watch movies for good visual storytelling, which is not incompatible with there being AI-generated characters in the movie. We've had completely CG characters in movies for decades now.

@Low_Key_Low_Key @TheCriticalDri2 Well it so happens that there's everything wrong with it, thats his point. What you're saying is the opposite of what we want, we want real actors doing real acting. We dont want dead actors doing roles we'd never know if they would want to do.

@nuclearmed23 Indeed they are! My kid used to be so good about fruits and vegetables when they were younger. Now they eat like a fucking boomer and it terrifies me. 🤣

Now that the nutriDex actually has me making money again, it's nice to be able to afford a better diet. I think I was on rice, beans, and peanut butter sandwiches for, like, a year there, haha. Vegetables are nice and were sorely missed. 🤣

@upRootNutrition @Avaaaast @amfetamigo @Alexleaf Humans are facultative carnivores - primarily meat based diet with opportunistic plant food + fruits based on seasonality. Find it funny carnivores getting sledged here when it is the mostly the diet humans are designed to eat.

@FusionProgGuy Apparently DLSS5 makes use of the entire GPU pipeline. It's not just upscaling or a filter.

@KCKlatt The whey/collagen mixture gets a protein completeness score of 8.1/10 (using the AAS), haha. Whereas soy protein isolate gets a 10/10. So, in terms of protein completeness, Paul's bar gets absolutely buttfucked by run-of-the-mill soy protein powder, lmao. uprootnutrition.com/nutridex

The carnivore-not carnivore raw milk guy and the wellness protein bar industry are yet again scamming you. Apart from the clickbait of grass-fed and beef tallow, and pretending added sugars in the form of coconut nectar and honey is uniquely good for you... this bar shouldn't really be counted as 20g of protein. The tip off is 20g from a blend that is whey and collagen. Collagen is a poor quality protein, with a protein score of zero. They don't disclose how much protein is in the formulation from collagen but we can derive it using the daily value, which has to be corrected for protein quality. The %DV is derived using 50g per day of protein as the goal, meaning .24*50= 12g quality protein. That's the ~amount of protein in 1/2c of greek yogurt or a Rx bar. Except these bars are 5.75$ each

We just cooked the protein bar industry. 🔥 Most are candy bars in disguise: seed oils, gums, fake sweeteners, sugar. Not @eatlineage. New Protein Bar: <200 cal 20g grass-fed whey + collagen 100% real food—no BS Tastes incredible 🍫 Who's in?

@pziegler1986 @Alexleaf Okay, buddy. Good luck sustaining human life with this, haha. I swear, this is the sort of shit people believe when they have absolutely zero background or understanding of human nutrition. A diet like this will probably lead to tetany, bleeding disorders, and maybe blindness.

@Alexleaf That's not the tweet's point. If one were stuck on an island with only one food source, red meat alone would be enough to sustain human life.

@onoverunder @dr__idz I never claimed it was necessary. However, I have different priors/intuitions with respect to Paul. I don't view him as honest or good faith. #paulsaladino" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">uprootnutrition.com/debate/cucklis…

@upRootNutrition @dr__idz It could be but it’s not necessarily. Considering he’s changed his views on strict carnivore I think it’s pretty obvious he’s not dogmatic on protein powder in small on the go quantity.

@onoverunder @dr__idz That's compatible with his view being in contradiction. That source doesn't actually resolve the underdetermination.

@heydrtab @dr__idz In my view, the bar represents a much bigger issue, because the innocent were holocausted in order to make it. Being a bullshitter is a much smaller issue.
