>Thirteen samples of authentic absinthe dating from the preban era (i.e., prior to 1915) were analyzed for parameters that were hypothesized as contributing to the toxicity of the spirit, including naturally occurring herbal essences (thujone, pinocamphone, fenchone), methanol, higher alcohols, copper, and antimony. The total thujone content of preban absinthe was found to range between 0.5 and 48.3 mg/L, with an average concentration of 25.4 ± 20.3 mg/L and a median concentration of 33.3 mg/L. The authors conclude that the thujone concentration of preban absinthe was generally overestimated in the past. The analysis of postban (1915–1988) and modern commercial absinthes (2003–2006) showed that the encompassed thujone ranges of all absinthes are quite similar, disproving the supposition that a fundamental difference exists between preban and modern absinthes manufactured according to historical recipes. Analyses of pinocamphone, fenchone, base spirits, copper, and antimony were inconspicuous. All things considered, nothing besides ethanol was found in the absinthes that was able to explain the syndrome “absinthism”.

Schlotsky's isn't actually jewish at all you retards. Was founded by a Christian Texan couple. They aren't even kosher.

>The $2.95 Original was the first and only child of Schlotzsky's founders Don and Delores Dissman, who modeled the sandwich on the muffulettas they discovered in an Italian grocery store in the French Quarter of New Orleans.
>They came up with the name Schlotzsky's for no other reason than it seemed to fit.

Pie and "za" are completely different. The latter is some retarded meme abbreviation. The former is exactly how you're supposed to refer to a pizza pie to differentiate it from a slice of pizza.
Why would anyone have a problem with using the word pie in the first place? Doesn't make any sense.

>The pioneer women with blacksmith arms who built the USA and smoked pork belly would demolish you in seconds in a street fight.
Nah, I would without hesitation put my money on some random male anon winning a street fight with a tough blacksmithing "pioneer woman." People greatly underestimate the strength gap between men and women. It's like the strength gap between chimpanzees and humans pound for pound.
Also there's a reason why the male hormone is literally the basis of all modern athletic performance enhancing drugs. Also just look at one of those random male high school vs. professional women's team matches they do periodically with hockey or basketball. Male high school team has always won in every case I'm familiar with.
Last also, here's that obligatory youtube video of the female firefighter who doesn't have the upper body strength to knock down a weighted obstacle course wall that a random non-firefighter guy busts through with zero effort:

It's nothing to be ashamed of (which you should get from the fact I likened this strength gap to the one chimpanzees have over humans in general). I just wish everyone would stop pretending it doesn't exist and accepts it would be ridiculous to place money on any random guy losing a fight with a random woman, short of the guy having Lou Gehrig's disease or something.

Uh, no, you posted here, buddy.

>Golly I guess that just happens randomly for no reason, huh? Magic is more believable than diet being a cause...
>The only 2 causes of disease are food and magic
Are you just pretending to be retarded? Do you think Lou Gehrig's Disease is caused by eating too much gluten? Holy fuck.

>Uh, the explanation is simply the salt content.
No it isn't you retard. Don't make shit up. Look it up.

>Well, here’s another piece of evidence: Burger number 6, made with no salt, did not rot either, indicating that the salt level has nothing to do with it.
Salt can be used to preserve food but it isn't what causes these burgers not to rot. The cause is:
>The burger doesn’t rot because its small size and relatively large surface area help it to lose moisture very fast. Without moisture, there’s no mold or bacterial growth.

It's clearly a fad diet.
>inb4 "but ketogenic diet has been around since the 20s!"
Yeah, for childhood epilepsy and insulin dependent juvenile diabetes, at a time in history when modern anticonvulsants and insulin shots hadn't been developed yet.

>Comparison of weight-loss diets with different compositions of fat, protein, and carbohydrates.
>CONCLUSIONS: Reduced-calorie diets result in clinically meaningful weight loss regardless of which macronutrients they emphasize.

>Ketogenic low-carbohydrate diets have no metabolic advantage over nonketogenic low-carbohydrate diets
>KLC and NLC diets were equally effective in reducing body weight and insulin resistance, but the KLC diet was associated with several adverse metabolic and emotional effects. The use of ketogenic diets for weight loss is not warranted.

>Energy expenditure and body composition changes after an isocaloric ketogenic diet in overweight and obese men.
>The carbohydrate-insulin model of obesity posits that habitual consumption of a high-carbohydrate diet sequesters fat within adipose tissue because of hyperinsulinemia and results in adaptive suppression of energy expenditure (EE). Therefore, isocaloric exchange of dietary carbohydrate for fat is predicted to result in increased EE, increased fat oxidation, and loss of body fat. In contrast, a more conventional view that "a calorie is a calorie" predicts that isocaloric variations in dietary carbohydrate and fat will have no physiologically important effects on EE or body fat.
>CONCLUSION: The isocaloric KD was not accompanied by increased body fat loss but was associated with relatively small increases in EE that were near the limits of detection with the use of state-of-the-art technology.
