I've made a new video against low-carb diets
RE: I've made a new video against low-carb diets
This is interesting (and appropriate): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16611377/

Quote:Rats fed 3.5 g/kg or more of methionine had higher concentrations of cholesterol in their plasma,

I weigh about 100kg. This means I would need to consume 350g of sesame seeds on the regular to measurably increase my cholesterol. Since a sesame seed weighs on average, .004g, this translates to roughly 87 000 sesame seeds.

So, is it possible that eating these things raises cholesterol and increases the risk of heart disease? Yes. How many people are eating enough sesame seeds for it to be a legitimate risk? Probably none.
