Why Is Salt So Bad for You, Anyway?

transmorpher says...

Feta is 46% RDI of salt
Halloumi etc....

EDIT:
Oh I see, I didn't write RDI in my previous comment, my bad. fixed. That would indeed be insanely wrong.


Although I do find it funny how I've posted about 10 different doctors, and you constantly think that it's the same guy just so you can allow yourself to dismiss any of the facts.

Here's another one in case you are counting: https://carsonmcquarrie.files.wordpress.com/2016/06/dr-kim-cardiologist-vegan-quote.jpg?w=640


Back on the ignore list you go :-)

Why Is Salt So Bad for You, Anyway?

newtboy says...

You are insanely wrong.
Processed cheese, the saltiest, averages 1.2% salt. 25% salt would mean a large pizza could have up to 3/4 of a pound of salt. Eating one slice would kill you....Eating 2 slices of American cheese would too, quickly. Where did you get those crazy numbers, your Dr guru? It sounds like him.

With your information being so ridiculous, why would anyone take your advice?

Chicken and cheese are two very salty foods.

Depending on the cheese it's 25-50% salt.

Chicken is often injected with saline solution to plump it up, and also as a cheap way to make it weigh more. When you cook it the water is boiled out, but the salt remains.

It's worth getting used to unsalted peanut butter too (the 100% peanuts is the one to go for). You can sweeten it to your liking later with jam or maple syrup.

If you can keep your salt intake down to 1500mg your blood pressure returns to that of a child! (you also have to eat plenty of greens to create nictric oxide which prevents things sticking to the arterial walls.)

Blood pressing increasing as you age doesn't need to happen at all.

Eat more whole foods, and less processed foods essentially, and you need never have hypertension or erectile dysfunction.

Why you should never pour grease down the drain

Stormsinger says...

So clean up your drains with boiling salt water? That's enough to make me question everything -in- this video. I'd suspect it all of being just a collection of urban myths.

Rethinking Nuclear Power

newtboy says...

Keep in mind, thorium salt reactors have many disadvantages as well, including short lifespan, requiring an on site chemical plant to constantly maintain proper mixture levels, embrittlement and corrosion of containment vessels and pipes, etc., but the biggest hurdle is regulatory since they are 1) breeder reactors that enrich the fuel (which are nearly impossible to get approval for in today's climate) and 2) need fairly highly enriched fuels to operate, much higher levels than ordinary reactors (also causing major opposition).

None of those are insurmountable obstacles, but they are why we don't have them producing power today.

I would like to see thorium salt reactor put into production..

low waste..there's a hell of a lot of thorium out there-- several times more than uranium. So much that we won't run out of it and can use it for hundreds of years.

Rethinking Nuclear Power

Asmo says...

Coal is responsible for many orders of magnitude more deaths and radioactive emissions than all nuclear incidents combined. But people don't care about simple things like facts or numbers. Talking about renewables when a significant portion of baseload power is still produced by coal is pointless. Let people have their feel good green tech (made in China, powered by a lot of coal of course ; ), but replace coal with modern nuke.

Denying the place of recent generation nuclear power as a viable strategy of supplying cleaner baseload power is much like denying man made climate change. Fucking moronic.

Thorium salt reactors do produce waste, but it's incredibly safe compared to breeder/lwr reactor byproducts. In fact, you can introduce older reactor waste in to the liquid mix in small amounts and the LFTR will break it down to less harmful components by accelerating decay in the core.

"LFTRs can also burn radioactive “waste” we are currently storing, made from the LWR units of today. We could actually reduce our radioactive waste using LFTRs and other Molten-Salt Reactors (MSRs) (more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1fqB6p9pgM)."

So LFTR is a strategy for both power supply and cleaning up existing waste storage. Who'da thunk it??

I don't see nuclear having a renaissance anytime soon...
Solar and Wind are already cheaper, don't emit CO2, and don't produce nuclear waste that has to be transported and stored in exotic containers for thousands of generations.

Thorium salt reactors also produce waste.

Nuclear does make a useful energy source for NASA space probes though.

How To Cook A Cheap Steak Vs. An Expensive Steak

Mordhaus says...

Another thing you can do to cheap steak is to use coarse sea/kosher salt and coat it really well, then let it sit an hour per inch of thickness. After that, rinse it off and pat it dry. You can also use kiwi, pineapple, or papaya to tenderize it instead, it is quicker but some people don't want the flavor marinading the steak.

Sushi 101 with Andy Milonakis

MilkmanDan says...

On the one hand, having a guided experience like that from somebody that knows the "proper" way of doing things is a very good thing.

On the other hand, I hate snobbery when it becomes sort of evangelical to the point of "saving people from ruining their meal". Maybe they like "candy sushi" rolls, dipped into soy sauce mixed with wasabi to the point of being salt bombs. I do. AND I like good nagiri the "proper" way also.

Ten Tiny Mistakes That Caused Disasters

ulysses1904 says...

I take these kinds of videos with a grain of salt. Maybe after some fact-checking all 10 of these events would indeed turn out to be that cartoony and easily explained, as if Michael Moore was the producer. But I have my doubts.

And Son of Sam didn't chop anybody up.

Movie Scenes Filmed in Iceland

newtboy says...

If you want gorgeous unspoilt vistas and astounding natural formations, it's damn hard to beat Iceland.

They skipped a great one (and many others)...In Die Another Day, the car chase on ice is filmed on a lake created for the movie. It's a lagoon that has one outflow channel where sea water enters at high tide. That adds just enough salt to keep it from freezing over...unless you make an ice dam in the channel like they did for the movie. The lagoon froze over enough to film the car scenes in what not only looked like, but was an impossible location. Today you can take boat rides among the icebergs in that lagoon.

Jacques Pepin: How to Chop Garlic

Ashenkase says...

I was taught a similar technique with an added step (but rarely use it)

Once you have the garlic minced, sprinkle some salt on it then use the french knife on an angle and crush the salt into the garlic.

Apparently it helps to draw out the juices faster.

Your Brain On Edible Marijuana

PlayhousePals says...

OOooOOOoooh ... Rookie move bud! Bet ya never did that again.

Before our currently messed up medical laws changed last July I had my dosage dialed in to perfection. One 180 mg 420 bar [dark chocolate/sea salt was my 'go to'] lasted me an entire day. I'd eat 1/3 every 8 hours for pain/stress relief that kept me functioning and happy. Sigh ...

I ate a space-cake on arrival in Amsterdam after being up all night on the flight from Boston. And did exactly what I was warned not to do, kept eating more of it because I wasn't feeling any effects. After curling up in the fetal position for 4 hours in my hotel bed feeling like I had the flu I finally felt normal after a few beers in the hotel bar. The rest of my vacation got better after that.
