Meat. More specifically, protein. Everyone crave protein, but we just eat it all of the time so that our body doesn't say anything

Let's go full circle.
"My body needs synthetic government manufactured chemicals because the food pyramid and the FDA told me so."
"There is no possible way that the government sells these chemicals because that would be a conflict of interest."
"I get my information from wikipedia."

Rock. Dumb. Can't think for self. Can't Google the actual chemicals. Blindly claims his body needs it to survive.

You're now replying to different people. I'm the one who said it sounds like you've been drinking

Does the hospital know you've escaped?

It's all the same shit. You guys eat up toxic waste that the government can't legally bury anywhere and then come here claiming you're healthy. It's fucking asinine. Especially because you have access to google and can type in these things yourself.

This is why I only eat clay and paper.

Keep those nutrients out of my body, scientists!

I don't think you know what a nutrient is.

clay is probably full of nutrients

Only because the government is trying to poison me.

Thanks for the redpill, I'm strictly on a paper diet now.

Not only are you punching at shadows, but everyone is laughing at you for the weird tangent you've gone of on. Are you by any chance using the internet in a public library?

This

Not sure about that. When you're thirsty, are you craving the "taste" of some drink? Or do you just need some water

>nutrients

No user, nutrients are synthetic government mind control chemical waste! Do try to keep up.

I don't think thirst is like the other cravings.

I've had that craving for vitamin D, when I moved wayyy north and had never experienced a cold, dark winter before then I had random cravings for anchovies, herring, kidney beans, and strangely, olives.

Not sure about the olives part but I did notice that I wanted salty fish and beans. Previous to that I never really ate anchovies or canned fish before.

Add liver paste to that too. Never really ate before, but after then I noticed every winter I had a massive craving for it.

>guy
Wrong board steve

>post evidence of the body craving certain foods in response to nutrient deficiencies
>HURR I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT'S RELEVANT
Clearly you lack brains. Try eating a bullet, that might help.

This. We can tell what we need. But things like refined sugar REALLY fuck that up.

Disinfo agent.

The "nutrients" are quite literally government manufactured chemicals that they pur DRVs on and made you think you need them to survive. 90% Of them are rated hazardous to humans.

If the FDA put a DRV of 1500mg on glyphosate, you people are so fucking dumb that you would claim you need to eat glyphosate to survive.

This is the truth. Get butthurt if you will, you are supporting a black industry of chemical manufacturing and sales and claiming with avarice that people will die if they don't eat the toxic waste pumped out by government owned cameo chemicals.
You are a retard who has lost all power to think and choose for himself. Plain and simple.

One is eating dirt and one is for pregnant women.
You're body is right now telling you that you need a nutrient to make you less angry.

>Disinfo agent.

That's right user, we're everywhere. We're watching you right now. We've been watching you for years.

Think about it like this: Just over a century ago many rural Americans would get spring fever (scurvy) after surviving the winter on storehouse foods. As soon as the first dandelion (or skunk cabbage) greens popped up they'd run out, harvest them, cook them up and eat them. These might not be nearly as desirable as the late spring and summer greens they'd raise in their gardens, but their vitamin C starved bodies were craving them enough that they'd go out even before the last snowfall melted to forage whatever edible greens were poking up. Other cultures solved this problem by developing a taste for pickled cabbage. All of this happened long before we knew what vitamins were.

Look it's you
>pic related

Makes sense

I'm going to start paying attention to what my cravings are. Like the radishes one. Maybe there will be a common theme...

Yeah I get it for olives and olive oil frequently. Only green olives though

Huh? You don't think females visit ck do you lol

You're right, but consider the rating of 2/4 for hazards to humans that citric acid has.
This is the chemical version, not the naturally occurring version. There is even a shitbusters episode where their citric acid container has skull and bones printed on it.
The synthetic versions of these chemicals are NOT safe to eat. The natural ones are.

Females are the majority of this board

i wanna call this a meme but i'm female so i just don't know

Veeky Forums has the highest concentration of middle-aged women out of all of Veeky Forums. Quite a lot, in fact.

If you've never seen the threads where a 37 year old housewife admits to shitposting when she's bored you haven't lived.

It doesn't matter if it's the "chemical" version or the "natural" version. Both are identical.

The reason why the "2/4" hazard rating exists for the "chemical" and not for, say, a bag of lemons is that the "chemical" purchased from a lab supply company is pure, whereas lemons contain only a small amount of the citric acid among all the other things that make up a lemon. The difference lies in the concentration.

This is true for just about any nutrient that the human body requires. Small amounts of it are necessary for life. Larger amounts of it (i.e. highly pure) can be toxic.

>squeeze citrus fruit
>add hydrated limelime
>get calcium citrate
>add sulfuric acid
>get citric acid

I'm sure you can see how this is not the same thing as naturally occurring citric acid. Eating hydrated lime and sulfuric acid is not exactly the same thing as eating an orange.

There's a difference between constant, excessive salt intake vs. feeling like a few radishes once or twice every few months tho

nigga the naturally occurring version of citric acid is a "chemical" too. They are identical in molecular structure. You have no fucking idea what you're talking about.

It's way different dude, check the synthesis. You are not so much eating citric acid as you are eating hydrated lime and sulfuric acid.

The real answer is: the brain is too nuisanced, and so is diet. It could be xause by literal billions of factors and it really doesn't matter

Not being argumentative, but how would you even know this?
I don't believe it...

I suppose. Never been one to take vitamins or eat vitamin enriched products. I just eat a variety of foods and generally do fine. I do avoid artificially flavored foods as well, because I think they're garbage.

>I'm sure you can see how this is not the same thing as naturally occurring citric acid.

No actually I can't. Citric acid is citric acid. It's either citric acid or it isn't.

If I combust Hydrogen in a pure Oxygen atmosphere, I get pure water. It's identical to "natural" water. Because it's the exact same fucking molecule.

I think the word youre looking for is "nuanced," user.

No I mean the kid died without his daily metric ton of salt whereas I'll be ok without a few radishes every 4 weeks

In the case of I think we can agree that his brain is nuisanced.

Yeah but I am typing on a phone and too retarded to check myself before I rek myself

How are you today, federal department of agriculture?

Made anyone else think they need to eat synthetic chemicals to survive today?

i'm a 32 year old basement dwelling woman and i've been shitposting on Veeky Forums for years. i know "no girls on the internet" was the joke forever, but we showed up here when you did (just, perhaps, in smaller amounts) and have been growing up with you all this time. i'm sure there are a ton of female newfags too as internet communities become more mainstream. i'm just saying, it's not outside the realm of possibility

>How are you today, federal department of agriculture?

Bored. We're outside waiting for you to leave the house, and Frank really needs to pee. Could you maybe make a trip to Arby's again and he can use the bathroom while you scream at the pigeons?

Not what I asked. They were posting this as a fact and I'm not aware of any method for Veeky Forums to obtain that data so I asked how they knew.

Found the vegan

>They were posting this as a fact

Merely a strongly inferred opinion. I've seen a few of those threads, and you can tell from the way they post that they're genuine. I see no reason for even the most basement dwelling male to pretend to be a middle aged housewife, so I tend to believe them on balance.

Google plus accounts,

Any person who paid attention in a high school chemistry class could tell you why this is ridiculous.
Then you start to realize why all the paranoid government conspiracy folk go hand in hand with uneducated trash.

I don't really like liver but every once and a while i want it. like i neeed it, the whole time i'm eating it i'm like, why body...why.

You can believe what you want I have no issue with that I just thought there might have been some statistics posted or something. Moot used to post some website stats now and again but there was never any age/gender data (and I wouldn't know how there would be).

Don't try to pull the captcha meme shit

my tongue protests but i feel better and it doesn't happen again for a good long while.

That's interesting to me because the cravings I have are always for things that are good (I happen to like radishes) but you get it for stuff that doesn't seem palatable to you. Huh

You're just the same person posting the same thing over and over again.
Cool. You showed him.

now and then the warmth of a innocent soul near my body warms the cold of a ancient un-moving weight of time and knowledge. my very being craves the contrast now and then. i'm unsure if it signifies deficiency though.

You're correct in a broad sense, but the vitamin industry does work hard to move product. Look at D for example. Many labs have been increasingly flagging people for having low vitamin D when they're at levels which would not have raised eyebrows a few years ago. And much of the D supplements sold are D2, which is not the same as the D3 your body produces in response to sunlight. So what people are being sold is not the same as the vitamin they're lacking.

You don't need conspiracy theories to explain this. Money is being made, and that's enough.

Different user here, but I never get a craving for vitamins

absolutely your body and mind tells you what you need. the problem is learning how to read.

Sure, vitamin D is different than D2 and D3, but citric acid is citric acid, regardless of where it originates.
And you are right that there is an industry pushing you to ingest certain things, but that's true of literally any product in a capitalist economy. As well, supplements are never as good as the real thing, eating natural foods contain counterparts to certain vitamins etc. that will assist in breaking it down in your body.

Eating an excess of any vitamin isn't going to hurt you either, unless you are consuming it in insanely excessive amounts (i.e. eat an entire polar bear liver). Your body is very good at filtering out excess/unneeded materials. You can probably make a case for trans-fats and hydrogenated oils though,
.
The only way to be sure of what you're eating is to inform yourself; pointing fingers and shouting "muh govt conspiracy" won't get you anywhere in life.

>Eating an excess of any vitamin isn't going to hurt you either,
Not true. I have 50,000 IU caps of D my doctor prescribed me. Pretty sure a handful of them would fuck me up real good.

read the entire sentence, user.

...

Yes it's called pica.

Ok dipshit go ask your mom then

I don't blame you for not reading the thread but we've been over this already

Don't get upset with me because you're pregnant and eat dirt. Not what the thread is about.
>being this mad on Veeky Forums

What's it about again genius?

I call bullshit but I am also a female so I can't say.

I believe random men claiming to be female is why the tits or GTFO meme started sir

Okay, what the fuck. You keep mentioning radishes and I don't know why, is that because you are identifying yourself as OP?

Literally the only thing you do is get a craving for radishes once in a while. I think you just like them. I get cravings for all kinds of foods and there is no way I am deficient in anything, or that my body "needs" anything.

Women are 50% of the population but no everyone on here is a man or a man pretending to be a woman.

Does an occasional craving for a specific food (like say radishes) indicate your body is telling you you need nutrients contained in said food

People posted repeated instances of that happening, OP is just trying to get help with the rest of his homework.

I am OP. Radishes is just the example I picked don't get fixated. Also, I have had 2 radish cravings in the last 4-5 weeks and that rarely happens.

My point is that once things are in pill form understanding the dose is less intuitive. This is why so many kids OD on prescription pills they take recreationally. It's pretty obvious you shouldn't drink a gallon of vodka, but less so when it's just numbers on the label of a bottle.

As for vitamin supplements what's sold is usually the cheapest version of a particular vitamin, not necessarily the kind we ought to be getting. (For example there are six kinds of vitamin E, so while citric acid will always be citric acid vitamin E is not always the same thing). Then there's the whole issue of bioavailability, and which nutrients increase or decrease the adsorption of other nutrients.

It's also not really relevant to the topic but you do you

I'm just stating what the thread topic was for angry dude, not asking the question over again

Right I don't disagree with your first paragraph at all. Your second paragraphs just reiterates exactly what I said. So I don't think we're even arguing anymore user.

Totally incorrect

Nah. I was around back then. It means something else now but either way it's not relevant. Sir

... and sometimes I drink warm water out of the tap. dunno, dont like the feel of cold water in the early morning.

pussy

I can't gently finger my own anus enough for this post. I'm fingering..

you talk like a fag and your shit's all retarded
