- Comment on Why are fruits and berries healthy, even though they are mostly just sugar? 2 days ago:
RN here, it’s because your body has a more difficult time accessing the sugars in fruit form. They are wrapped up in multiple types of fiber which add bulk to your digestive system and serve as kind of a shield for your body to less easily access the sugar. The juice is essentially just the sugar with all the fiber strained out, has others have said this causes a situation where you can drink the calories from like 18 oranges in 45 seconds, and your body can access it immediately and easily. This is also why whole fruit is actually a good thing for diabetics because the glycemic index is actually pretty low.

- Comment on We wouldn’t need the Epstein files to prove DJT’s guilt if society just trusted women in the first place. 2 months ago:
Maybe not a court provable thing, but the takeaway here is that conservatives specifically are willing to give this man infinite benefit of the doubt, to a level never seen before. Even if we can’t throw his disgusting rapist ass in jail, he should 100% not be allowed to be president, much less actually succeed in that effort. It’s sick and fuckin weird. If you look over all the actual criminal and civil convictions, along with general aggregate proof, additionally the proof of just being a small, bigoted, racist, narcissistic POS, and stack on top of alllll that these other general allegations, the man is clearly an unforgivablly worthless sack of shit that no reasonable person could possibly look up to. That’s why true chump supporters are all either completely fooled by disinformation they CHOOSE to believe over all else, or “ends justify means” types who are lying to not look like pieces of shit themselves and live in a state of irrational fear, or straight up supportive of hate directly i.e. Nazis.
