  • I’m dealing with what I’m pretty sure is SIBO and am basically currently on a no suger diet, natural or added, and looking at the extreme low FOD map diet of no sugar, no gluten, no dairy for a while. It’s really hard to avoid all added sugars, they put that shit in fucking everything and you can’t trust the nutritional labels because they can say 0 grams of sugar per serving if the serving size is small enough. (Classic example is tic-tacs, ingredients are basically just sugar, but per serving size they can claim 0g of sugar because the serving size is one tic and one tac)

    All that to say, cutting sugar out of your diet is definitely doable, and honestly I’ve never felt healthier about my diet as much as I hate how it’s being restricted.
    There are infinite ways to combine rice and beans and meats with spices that are nutritionally complete. You probably wouldn’t have any issues with veggies either so that opens up the diet considerably.


  • I guess, kinda, but the concept of “ownership” isn’t the divine right of kings. It’s an understanding of possession in relation to the rest of the world and other people. There are like zoning laws and shit like that for a reason, just because you buy a piece of land doesn’t mean you can develop it into whatever you want and put a chemical processing plant in a residential neighborhood.
    Just because you bought an apartment and maintain exclusive ownership of it, it’s in the context of someone else owning the building, and someone/thing further owning the area that building is in. Ownership doesn’t give you any right to alter something in a way that affects the other peoples owned property or possessions.
    Not that I’m advocating that it’s right or even a good thing, but essentially the “final boss” of ownership is the government because people can’t be trusted not to be petty dicks to each other
