Actually, you started the 4th page...3 pages and counting of posts on whether people should eat potatoes or not because of what Ray says. Eat potatoes, if they work for you keep it up, if they don't then don't eat them.
Oxidized cholesterol alert!!!!I usually make ghee
Wow, what a paradise-like circumstance to have a own garden which brings ginger and curcuma, my two favourite spices!And I have fresh ginger and curcuma from my garden
Not only, because sugar has no protein, and potatoes do have them. Also they can be very available in some places, like masa harina in Mexico is a good choice. This is part of context.As i understand he advises potatoes when one has no better choice. And in this case one should eat it with fats and cook it well.
I think it is more on whether Ray says potatoes are good or bad or in the middle. And everybody seem to agree that self experimentation is everything and everyone is free to make choice .whether people should eat potatoes or not because of what Ray says
Thanks for information!Oxidized cholesterol alert!!!!
That is why I dedicate part of the place to them, which is not so easy to give them shade and a lot of compost. they are under my banana tress... My problem is to try to grow 365 carrots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's a lot :)Wow, what a paradise-like circumstance to have a own garden which brings ginger and curcuma, my two favourite spices!
This sentence is important for beginners:
"Since the contextuality of communication is always in the foreground when I talk or write, you know that someone is confusing me with an authority when they talk about my “protocol” for something. Context is everything, and it’s individual and empirical."
and
"I start with trying to make a context clear, because everyone’s context is different, and meanings change when they are learned. Ideally, things should make no sense until they make the right sense."
A beginner should change things very slowly, to respect the right of the body to adapt, but also to get the right sense.
I have just noticed I have been here 2 years now...
I am navigating in my "individual and empirical", but also trying to make bridges with others = what do we have IN COMMON.
Like 365 carrots?You can grow mealworms at home...
Michoacán - WikipediaThe truth is that you have to move to the tropics if you want the best Peat-friendly diet! Where does he go in Mexico?
Isn't the tropical land where we come from?
(lol, near the sea for shell fish, or in high land for CO2?)
lol, no, the worms grow in flour, the carrots not!Like 365 carrots?

"Ray,
You have said in interviews that you think it's good to avoid starch, but you've also said that potatoes are nearly a perfect food. I know you think it's good to eat some butter with starch but you've also said that you think too much butter can be fattening and you also like low fat or skim milk. So if one was to get a lot of daily calories from potatoes with no butter added, is the starch from the potato still likely to contribute to soft tissue or lymph damage from starch particles or is that only of concern from flour products, that is, starch consumed from flour products, which are usually consumed with the polyunsaturated fats."
RE:"I think potato starch is likely to cause some cumulative damage if it isn’t eaten with some fat. I don’t eat potatoes, both because of the starch and their allergenicity. As a cheap source of nourishment, they are far better than the beans and rice that are often recommended for cheap protein and calories. When the starch is removed, the cooked liquid can be used as a protein supplement for people with special metabolic problems."
If you want to "be like Peat" but you're successfully eating potatoes, even with fat, you're not a Peatarian. And the potato juice he talks about is only for people with special metabolic problems. It will do nothing for you if you're normal.
I think this other comment suggests a similar situation to what Danny Roddy says about milk, that if you have problems with it then it's not the milk, it's you. I say it's not the starch, it's you. >>>>>But, >>>>>and this is the important but, still, even if you don't have problems with starch, it will still cause cumulative damage from a real, true Peatarian POV.
inb4 "but he said if it's not eaten with some fat." Yea but he said "I don’t eat potatoes, both because of the starch and their allergenicity" so they aren't Peaty.
"The whole endotoxin nonsense boils down to excess intestinal bacteria, which can have numerous causes. The bias here is to blame it on starch of course ...."- tyw

People often say that potatoes are Peaty but they are not. Though he has said positive things about them, he's said enough negative things about them and personally does not eat them. Therefore, potatoes are not Peaty. A true Peatarian diet is 100% starch free with the only exception coming from the very occasional nixtamalized Mexican corn tortilla and baby turnip. My point is that it is unfair to credit the success of many potato eaters in the nutrition sphere to them being Peaty when that is not true. Any success of potato or starch eaters is outside of the Peatosphere. So to them when a person does well with potatoes it's because they are "Peaty" but when a person does poorly with milk and/or cheese, to the dogmatic Peatarian it's not the milk, it's them. They are inconsistent with what they call "Peaty." Either something is Peaty or it's not. I'm just being transparent. I'm also changing my view on when I said that when Peat says positive things about a food but does not personally consume that food, then claiming that food is still "Peaty" is not true. Just because he said something positive about it does not make it Peaty. There is a true Peatarian diet. You could say that there is a backup Peatarian diet when one is having problems but my problem is with the wording. Let's not confuse the wording
