There is no commonly understood definition of processed foods. That is the problem. People throw the term around like it does mean something but they can't define it.

Please show me I'm wrong and give a concise definition of what makes some food processed. The internet needs a good definition as these conversations always just end up with hand waving as there is no consensus of what food is what.

My dictionary says ”industrially produced food”, i.e. frozen and ready to eat meals, snacks, confections, etc.

The issue is that the plastics and non-stick coatings leach off plasticizers and forever-chemicals which cause hormone and neurotransmitter disruption in humans, which cause obesity, diabetes, autoimmune disorders, cancer and other serious disease.

I knew GraphQL would eventually come down to this, it was already apparent in the idea. Instead of replacement for REST services, GraphQL is really more like a way to expose a database schema from any relational database in a standard way. Regardless of whether the database is SQLite, Postgres, or a proprietary product like Oracle or DB2, slap a generate GraphQL front end on it now it's available remotely without needing a client driver.

Slap them into entity-normalized subgraphs and now you can compose all your databases, indexes, queues, etc. into one supergraph where you can seamlessly resolve entity fields across all your data stores.

Burning anything releases carcinogens as far as I'm aware.

Last I saw epidemiological data, cannabis smokers had a slightly lower odds ratio for lung cancer (<1.0) than non-anything-smokers (=1.0), while tobacco smokers had an OR in the high single digits (>8.0)

”Some risk factors during adolescence and adulthood have also been described, such as having an occupation as a fire-fighter, working with aircraft maintenance and marijuana smoking”

Firefighters and aircraft mechanics get exposed to high levels of PFAS, but what is the devil’s lettuce doing here?

”although the possible association with psychotic symptomatology seems clear, the scientific community is far from being able to provide conclusive evidence on this topic”

You need to read the actual text and not just the title.

From my experience of people I know who've drank alcohol and who've used psychedelics, I'd say no, not at all. The psychedelics are probably >1000x more likely to cause psychosis.

Anything happening under the influence is not classified as a psychosis, mind you.

If you did that you might feel bad and be dehydrated the next day but you won't be suffering from psychosis or have permanent brain damage.

That's the problem with drugs. They're just not safe in the same way. No matter how hard the addicts cope.

Alcohol is more likely to cause psychosis than any drugs.

> This sounds more like a DO(C/M/B/I) trip than LSD.

I had no idea what you were talking about here, so looked it up. Link for anyone similarly ignorant :

Today many people learn that there are thousands of different LSD-like psychedelics (and other drugs) they don’t talk about in schools

What method could possibly exist that would remove threads of plastic embedded in tissue? Sounds incredibly invasive no matter what i.e a no-go. Don't plan for this stuff to somehow magically remove itself, plan on ingesting small enough amounts in your lifetime to render it a non-issue. If modern life is making that impossible then demand a better modern existence. If that's not possible to make society change for the better (I have my doubts) then accept your fate nobody said life would be fair, perhaps take up religion.
