December 11, 2024Dec 11 He made it clear all over the thread that he was an MD. And that was before he dropped the westernized nations comparison which is flawed statistically.

December 11, 2024Dec 11 Just now, we_gotta_believe said: When it comes to training... Pediatrician > pet food supplement guy And here we go with ad hominem.

It's very misleading for people who have relatively low body fat % but high muscle weight. Agreed. Use body fat percentage. It’s not that hard. With that said, it is an EXTREMELY small percentage of people who are such physical specimens that they are carrying 25+ extra pounds of muscle and would classify as obese in the BMI even though they’re built like Takeo Spikes and not Chris Farley. And half of those people are juiced to the gills and probably SHOULD be paying more.

December 11, 2024Dec 11 It's 10 pm on a Tuesday and that pathetic little tool decides to jump right in the middle of someone else's debate and tries to pick a fight. This really is all he has.

The issue is, the more people who opt into better care (that they pay for), the more politicians like Bernie and AOC will cry that it is unfair (regardless of the fact that people are paying for it). So it likely fails as they demand all Americans get access to all care without paying. People will need to accept different standards of care. Exactly the model in Sweden. Probably a somewhat higher level of care for the minimum than you are imagining and also more people opting for additional care options (quite a few companies will offer this as a taxed benefit as well). Works ok and there is minimal beetching from the left at least for now.

Brought up by Vikas because he knows I'm a doctor. You're the one who tried to turn it into some kind of dick measuring contest by declaring yourself "better trained" then clutched your pearls when I said I was an MD. Which btw I also took to mean you had some kind of epidemiology background, not researching Fing dog supplements

Actually, what you call pearl clutching, most call terrible statics knowledge. I only commented on what you put on full display. And your response was but you know it can't be this because I went to medical school. Go ahead, join wgb in attacking me personally without having a clue as to what I did and what it takes to formulate, validate, test, and bring an animal or human supplement to market.

We all bring up our occupation from time to time. I have never once seen him try to throw his expertise around to prove a point (even in this thread).

Saying you had better training than him isn't a personal attack though. Neither is calling me a liar. Thanks for clarifiying.
