Halving your risk of depression

[Walsingham]

Eat red meat!

[Gfted1]

But that will kills you...

 

And they only tested women?

[Walsingham]

Obviously. As we all know, men have no emotions.

This is why I stopped paying much attention to health "news" or movements and just go with moderation and basic common sense.

[Walsingham]

I have opted for a Chestertonian diet of beer, beef, and sarcasm.

[LadyCrimson]

I get my daily requirement of sarcasm from my spouse, which makes me laugh, and laughter is the best medicine, right?

[Orogun01]

Eat red meat!

So if fat women that are depressed because they have body image disorder stop eating red meat it's the meat that was staving off the depression. Seriously, who makes this stupid studies and more importantly who pays for them?

[Gorgon]

I thought meat was a really good way to lose weight. You get a big pile of protein with little fat or carbs.

[Blarghagh]

Yeah, that's what I thought. Wasn't there some documentary recently that did the Supersize Me thing, except with just meat and the guy got much healthier? Fathead or something. I vaguely remember it.

[Gfted1]

Its known as the Atkins diet.

I have to admit, I grin like a moron after I've eaten a good steak dinner, it's a rare treat though, if I ate it all the time I'd be even more overweight...probably not from the steak though, just all the chips, fried onions and mushrooms that go with it

I'm grinning like a moron just from hearing that.

One is sometimes overtaken by the black dog, at such moments of introspection i simply have to tell myself that at least i'm not french.

 

Recently been tucking into some fine Fallow deer venison, superior to Roe or Red in my opinion.

Beer and sarcasm is fine. Beef is often too much work. Unless somebody else prepares the meal of course.

 

Life is a sexually transmitted terminal disease. No matter what you do, in the end it will get you killed. MIght was well enjoy the ride, as you won't get refunds.

 

I'm having a helluva time finding a store with any decent Cognac anywhere here. Thats more whinging than depression though

[Walsingham]

How can BEEF of all meats be too much work? You don't even need to cook it!

My South African colleagues swears Biltong is the best thing since the invention of beer, but I generally prefer my meat at least slightly cooked on the outside. I don't mind it being red and juicy to the point of going 'Mooh!' when I jab it with my fork, but uncooked? Not so sure.

[LadyCrimson]

I've decided that perhaps this new info explains why eating a giant bag of beef jerky makes me happy.

 

...also, Gorth, what exactly is too much work for cooking beef? Versus what? I'll grant it's more work than eating an apple, but not more work than cooking chicken, pork, sausage, etc. At least in general. eg not going for a perfect chef creation, just tossing in a pan, in the oven or on the BBQ.

This thread is over, Nonek wins!

Lets just say I'm an absolute disaster in a kitchen and anything involving machinery and/or heat is considered a serious challenge. If frying it on the pan, it's going to require my full attention and micromanagement from start to finish, or it will end up in blaze, as charcoal or other unimaginable horrors. Thats versus opening a can and eating it, putting it in the microwave and waiting elsewhere 5 minutes for the 'Ding!' or even better, go out and order it at a restaurant (which also requires less cleaning up afterwards)
