my understanding of keto is it can be more plant based, or more meat based "ketovore".
Exactly, focus on foods that do not spike insulin, promote higher HDL, and keep omega-6 intake low.

A simple approach can be low carb, high fat, with keto optional for most people. Yet in today’s diet, where omega-6 exceeds omega-3 by twenty-fold, there are still those who advocate for eating even more omega-6 and call it a balanced diet. That is truly mind blowing.

I ever chanced upon an article/book/video (forgotten the medium) that says our diet is dependable on the blood type we have. O blood should eat more meat but A blood should eat more vegetables, etc. So how can say everyone should have keto diet? A blood type will have problems eating too much meat.

I don't think there is a good evidence or conclusive study on this.
about 10 years ago, i passed by a "clinic-looking" shop in the underpass between city hall mrt and south beach mall. it was advertising a similar blood-type based diet. it was always closed, so i never got more info. Didn't follow up either.

my understanding of keto is it can be more plant based, or more meat based "ketovore".
best if can test out diet on self, take measurements over time, interpret, then decide. it's a long process, but one learns much in the meantime.

No, a diet should not follow your blood type because there is no scientific evidence to support the claims of the blood type diet.

Balanced diet already incorporates recommendations with fish and veggies which are high in omega 3.

I can quote one study everyday, but it seems like there will always be people who didn't do their own due diligence to read the actual studies, base their interpretations off youtube influencers, and dismiss it as weak, yet cannot lay an egg of evidence from their side. Truth always hurts.
Stop making a fool of yourself again and again.

Did you read the China study? How they did the study?

Throwing out rubbish articles doesn't make any smarter. It just shows how much you dunno.

:s13: :s13: :s13: ask you for one evidence you till now still produce nothing, only comments like rubbish, weak. I hope you can move yourself to the top of the pyramid instead of staying at the bottom.

Nobody is taking wholemeal bread as a large % of their calories.

I'm still waiting to know any large study to prove that complex carbs is bad.


What a cheap potshot.

If 6 out of 8 smoke 40 cigarettes a day and die young, you don't need a large population to prove that smoking is bad.

But there are already multiple and large population studies that support benefits of complex carbs. So of course you need an equal large number of studies to prove otherwise.
Cite your studies. Lets see how credible it is.

No one else mentioned anything abt this or that is supported/backed by studies, but you. Why do you insist on it.

This is what you can best reply?

You have nothing else to support your China Study?

Last I know, this seems to refer to you. You are not aware?

China study is not mine. If you say something is weak, u need to back it up. If you claim you hold the truth to the diet like you do in the previous posts, you also back it up with evidences. But so far, you failed in every aspect. Yar, coming from someone who don't even understand what is the purpose of epidemiology studies, i get you. They are "weak" and somehow all point to the same thing :unsure::s22: :s13:

This reasoning overlooks how excessive PUFA affects the body at a cellular level.

Take a typical modern diet as an example. A single person may consume around 15 to 20 grams of omega-6 per day from seed oils, processed foods, and restaurant meals. To achieve a true 1:1 omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, that person would need to consume 15 to 20 grams of omega-3 daily. Considering that fatty fish like salmon contains roughly 1 to 2 grams of omega-3 per 100 grams, a person would need to eat 7 to 10 kilograms of salmon per day to match the omega-6 intake, which is clearly impossible.

Even if someone could achieve this, consuming excessive omega-3 or omega-6 is not harmless. High omega-6 intake promotes inflammation, oxidative stress, and insulin resistance, while excessively high omega-3 can increase bleeding risk, suppress immune response, and also become prone to oxidation. PUFA in general, when consumed in large amounts, are highly susceptible to oxidation, generating harmful lipid peroxides that damage cells and tissues.

Of course I know that the study is not yours. Since you put up that graph, it is assumed that you have gone through and understand the study.

My question as per previous post, how did they do the study?

I have never claim any truth to anything, anywhere. Bring up the post which you claimed I did. Thank you.

What's the purpose of epidemiology studies? It's hypothesis generating at best.
It's associative. It cannot claim cause and effect.

Seriously .. unless you got time money and resources... Very hard to eat clean healthy economically in sg breakfast.

Ideally, some sourdough with good quality cheese and cured salmon, good nuts and legumes and hard-boil eggs.

Else stick to economy beehoon or kaya guyou toast

You claim it is weak when you didn't even read it ???? I presented the summary of the study to you and you want me to lecture you on the study. The same with 4 other studies i shown to you. Your only reaction is weak. why? because you say so :s13: and who are you ?

Epidemiology is hypothesis generating????? :s22: :eek:

This is a good way to eat. Very reasonable.

There is an optimal diet. Period.

I posted the question to another forum contributor @mummynew . Not sure if she got it.
Someone commenting like he holds the key to the ultimate diet wor :s13:

I did not make any claims. You like to put words into my mouth. That's a very bad habit of yours.

The graph you presented is no where near to a summary. Its only 2 pages. And it's just one of the many headings in the study. You have just exposed yourself that you only read this part. And do not even understand how this study was conducted.

I cannot stop your silly inferences. There s no such thing as ultimate diet. Surely there's an optimal diet.

Till this stage, you still cannot get over your epidemiology study with strong evidences. You still do not get it.

@ninelives for you my bro. :frown:

Here's a simple, nutritious breakfast recipe tailored for lactose intolerance, with a moderate to high protein content (around 30-35g per serving). I've kept it in a Singapore context by incorporating common local ingredients like firm tofu (tau kwa), bean sprouts, and a touch of sambal for that familiar Southeast Asian flavor. All items are easily available at wet markets, NTUC FairPrice, or Sheng Siong supermarkets. This is a quick stir-fry inspired by local hawker-style dishes, but lactose-free (no dairy at all) and focused on protein from plant and animal sources.

### Singapore-Style Tofu and Egg Stir-Fry (Serves 1, Prep time: 10 mins, Cook time: 10 mins)

#### Ingredients:
- 200g firm tofu (tau kwa), drained and cubed (provides about 20g protein)
- 2 large eggs (provides about 12g protein)
- 100g bean sprouts (mung bean sprouts, for crunch and a bit of fiber)
- 1 small red chili or 1 tsp sambal oelek (adjust for spice level; optional for that local kick)
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tsp light soy sauce (use tamari if gluten-free)
- 1 tsp sesame oil (for flavor, not frying)
- 1 tsp vegetable oil (for cooking)
- A handful of chopped spring onions or coriander for garnish
- Salt and pepper to taste

#### Instructions:
1. Pat the tofu dry with a paper towel to remove excess water, then cut into 1-inch cubes. This helps it crisp up without sogginess.
2. Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick pan or wok over medium heat (common in Singaporean kitchens for quick stir-fries).
3. Add the minced garlic and chopped chili (or sambal) to the pan. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
4. Add the tofu cubes and cook for 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally until golden and slightly crispy on the edges.
5. Push the tofu to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs directly into the empty space and scramble them lightly for 2-3 minutes until just set (don't overcook to keep them soft).
6. Toss in the bean sprouts and soy sauce. Stir everything together for another 1-2 minutes until the sprouts soften slightly but remain crunchy.
7. Remove from heat, drizzle with sesame oil, and season with salt and pepper. Garnish with spring onions or coriander.
8. Serve hot on its own or with a side of steamed brown rice for extra carbs if needed (keeps it balanced for a Singaporean meal).

#### Nutritional Notes (Approximate per serving):
- Protein: 30-35g (moderate-high for breakfast)
- Calories: ~350-400 (depending on exact portions)
- Why lactose-free: No dairy products used; tofu and eggs are naturally lactose-free.
- Singapore twist: This mimics a simple zi char-style dish, using affordable, everyday ingredients. If you prefer more variety, you could add ikan bilis (dried anchovies) for extra protein and umami—about 50g would add another 10g protein, but rinse them first to reduce saltiness.
