I agree, people believe in these fad diet too much...but you also can't say that its fatty foods because fatty foods don't necessarily get you fat either. Its the combination of the different macros and excess calories. Quote Link to comment

enkateam Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Its actually the excess sweets, fried and processed foods Pinoys eat that make them fat. yeah, sweets are pretty deadly. You know what I find weird. Whenever I visit the Philippines, I lose weight...I think the processed food here in US is way worse than the processed food in Philippines. When I go on vacation there, I don't "diet" for obvious reasons. I mean, I'd eat jollibee, chow king, and just bad food in general. It's a pretty sweet deal haha...of course when I move there I won't be in the vacation mindset. So I'm really curious as to how my body will react. When I returned from Phil this January I was down 10lbs, I was looking real lean and dry. I wish I had taken a picture of myself, shucks! the pic in my avatar is like 2 years old, that's like my only pic without a shirt, very outdated. Quote Link to comment

Gestanon Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 For the nth time, itsd not rice that is the enemy huh ? rice is the calorific enemy, since it's the staple food it's always advisable to take only half-cup of rice in every meal. rice has calories, the more calories taken in, with less exercise, it is converted to fats via gluconeogenesis and eventually deposited on the abdominal flabs. now tell me, why rice is not the enemy ?

If rice really was the enemy, Asia would have the most number of obese people, but we don't 2. I have seen so many people avoid eating rice but then eat tons of bread, processed foods fried foods and sweets, so which is the real culprit? 1. fact. a cup of rice is about 50 grams of carbs which would be about 200 calories... A donut or a piece pf porkchop has more calories than the cup of rice. Again, rice is not the main culprit... it takes the total calories to make one fat and not just one type of food Fact.... I noticed that the consumption of bread has increased in this country and the number of fat peple have increased as well... So why do peple blame rice and not look around and see what the people eat with rice and without rice and thenmake thier conclusions??? I rest my case Quote Link to comment
Gestanon Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 okay, then it should be rice is not the enemy per se. yet still rice plays a big bulk in every Asian meal. it also has to be categorize in age groups, many Asian adults has pot-bellies nowadays while most teens and most young adults haven't got any. it's always wise to take things in moderation including breads. i've read an article that Filipinos (including Asians) are now getting fatter nowadays not with the consumption of rice per se but because of the many fast food sproutings plus the lack of exercise.

And yes, everything must be taken in moderation Quote Link to comment
crazykalbo Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 rice alone is not the culprit.. i believe in coach olympus on that. blame it on the fast food and junk foods we all eat everyday. a diet wont be successful if its not balanced. moderation and proper diet is always the key, plus a sensible workout program (not to the point of overtraining).

Pepeng Manas Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 western people dont eat rice... and yet they are fatter. and some western people who go on a diet, actually include rice in their diet. see those muscular construction workers? see how much rice they eat? im sure you've probably seen them eat in a carinderia 3-4 cups of rice with a single fried fish! but look at their bodies. now, im not saying you should do that because we dont use energy as much as them. what im saying is that rice is not the enemy (as what the experts here are saying). if you eat 3-4 cups of rice and not use that energy, then that's the time you'll get fat. in short, if you eat excessively (not limited to rice) and not use that energy, you'll get fat. rice is not the enemy.

elmersglue Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 (edited) iwasan na lang ang mga sweets, o kaya dapat konti lang ang kain sa gabi, tapos samahan ng konting exercise yun lang Edited March 5, 2007 by elmersglue Quote Link to comment
Gestanon Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 (edited) again , the debate whether rice is the culprit is a relative thing. if your main diet consists of rice then by all means rice is the main culprit. if your main diet consists of bread the the main culprit is bread. rice contains 375 kilo calories per cup and that IS a huge amount of calories comparing it with fish, meat or vegetables. Again, if an invidual has a high rate of metabolism consuming 3 to 4 cups of rice won't be a problem. you have to consider several factors and categorize them as such. such conclusion by mere semantics and observation is vague enough for that matter. i always advise my asian patients to eat less rice because that's always their staple food. and mine you I HAVE tested and studied with a huge number of patients since 1991 and I have noted the difference. to end this debate, i thereby conclude that CARBOHYDRATES is the main cuprit!

Gestanon Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 iwasan na lang ang mga sweets, o kaya dapat konti lang ang kain sa gabi, tapos samahan ng konting exercise yun lang sweets are fructose (complex carbohydrates), again...carbohydrates are the main culprit. Quote Link to comment
