I know it's a long shot, but care to back this up with, I dunno, facts and evidence?

Mark, our food is laced with all types of drugs. Fertizilers for the earth, protein for the meat, steriods to help it grow faster, salt to preserve the freshness and kill bacteria, it all has some type of drug. But the specific drug used in red meats that causes you to fill hungry, while eating, right after eating, and even the next morning after sleeping. Have you ever woke up hungry the next day and you know you had a big meal the night before?

I will see if I can find some additional information for you.

Mark, the info is being challenged so I am unable to find a direct link. Kevin Trudeau is where I got my info from, the Natural Cures book. What they don't want you to know. You can search on that and find a lot of info. Kevin is a master Marketing strategist, he was challendged by the FDA and agreed to shut down his website, which is where i got my info. Somewhere between him making money (he is a millionaire now) and what he alledges, is the truth. I know from my own experience, there is something in red meat, that makes you want more. You can not get enough. I do not get that same effect from white meat.

Try this, pig out on some red meat. Ribs, BBQ Beef, Brisket, etc... Notice how shortly afterwards, you are hungry for more. The next day you wake up hungry. I don't know if it's a drug from the FDA like what Kevin says or it is some ingredient that we put in the food, or just the food itself. I just know that it is real that you are hungrier, shortly afterwards or the next day. I didn't realize this until I heard Kevin Trudeau mention it, then I did my own comparsion. I got a whole gut full of food, how can I possibly be hungry. Knowing that now, I am able to control it.

Is food a drug? Depends on the defintion of a drug. I can eat certain foods and be put to sleep. My point is, just say NO!

From the Doonesbury cartoonist ??? :p

That's Garry Trudeau. I think he'd have better information than the quack who OS cited.

They must put that drug in Chinese food too. About an hour after I eat........

Lah me............just when you think that he can't possibly outdo himself....:rolleyes:

So you're saying, without this mysterious drug no one knows about, no one would need to eat breakfast in the mornings? Follow the money, Jimmy Dean must be involved somehow.
And here I always thought I woke up hungry because my body had digested the food I ate 12 hours earlier. Silly me.

Believe it or not, I may actually be in your area then. I have to visit a customer in the Seattle area the day before. This is right before I leave for a trade show in Las Vegas. Aaahhhhh, work is tough. ;)

No moron, if you don't eat at night, then if you're hungry in the morning, that stands to reason. However, if you ate a big meal before bed, and you woke up and have an intense appetite for a big breakfest. How can that be?

If you are young and still very active, this is possible, I guess. However, if you are overweight, got some weight issues, not that active anymore. When you wake up in the morning, you shouldn't be hungry, i don't care how good the Jimmy Dean sausage smells.

Either case, young athletic, older, non-athletic, if you eat a big meal before you go to bed. If everything is working correctly in your system, you will wake up tired because your body did not rest. It spend the night, digessing all the food you ate before you went to bed. Kind of like waking up with a hang-over.

Added: This is also a source for nightmares.

A Real Turkey
 

From Old School: "Is food a drug? Depends on the defintion of a drug. I can eat certain foods and be put to sleep."

Turkey does have the makings of a natural sedative in it, an amino acid called tryptophan. Tryptophan is an essential amino acid, meaning that the body cannot manufacture it. The body has to get tryptophan and other essential amino acids from food. Tryptophan helps the body produce the B-vitamin niacin, which, in turn, helps the body produce serotonin, a remarkable chemical that acts as a calming agent in the brain and plays a role in sleep.

Yeah, kind of like reading the case book.

In the past, I was ambivalent as to the calls to suspend/deactivate Old School's account. The ignore feature worked for me.

Now, however, Old School has decided to share his total BS "medical knowledge" with the rest of us. He knows less about the human body than he does about the rules, and should be blocked before someone hurts themselves by following his recommendations.

To OS - if you want to joke about your lack of rules knowledge, go right ahead. Give it a rest when it crosses over to the biomedical sciences.

Well, kinda.

The role of excess turkey in putting people to sleep (a story that comes up every Thanksgiving) is rather overstated.

Hey, where else could you find out about those secret drugs and harmones that <b>they</b> put into food to make you hungry. The FDA knows all about it. It's gotta be true. I eat, and damned if I'm not hungry the next day.
