The human body is very efficient at utilizing what you feed it. Our of your 5000 calorie meal, the body might use, as previously stated, a few hundred calories for energy, but would work to convert...

ACTUALLY, it's just as devoid of nutrients as regular bleached-enriched wheat flour. Unbleached only means unbleached; the flour is still stripped of most of the fiber and nutrients present in whole...

It's not that bagels make you fat, per say, they're just more calorically dense than most bread is. Most people don't realize it, but where two slices of toast might be around ~160 calories, a bagel...

Looks clean, but there are some areas you could make better choices. Meal 2 (PWO, it looks like) should have some more carbs with it - try adding a banana, some dried fruit, oats, or...

Cheating on a meal (going out to a nice restaurant, and even then I'm pretty picky) isn't so much a bad thing for me, it's all the water weight that takes days to get rid of. It's just not worth it...

Yeah, no fruits and no veggies are a no-no. I'd also try and re-evauluate your choice to use weight gainers - try getting whole food meals instead. I'd advise against a weight-gainer before bed,...

Saturated fat aside, looking at your other nutrients, you only have SIX grams of fiber in a day? That's far too low, the "average" person should get at least 25-30 grams per day, someone health and...

If the United States starts having a major H5N1 problem, I doubt protein will be anyone's first concern.

Actually, dried fruit retains all of the nutrients of fresh fruit. It's just that, since the water's been removed, the volume decreases and it's easier to eat more withing getting full or without...

I haven't ever heard of someone trying to cook rice in an oven...

If you don't have/can't use a rice cooker, boil the rice in water and/or chicken broth in a saucepan on the stovetop, or a...

First thing's first: Not everyone has the mindset to live a healthy life. Pure and simple, some people will always be out of shape and treat themselves poorly, and not care.

Second: I don't...

Well put, I'm with you.

That kind of article/disorder is completely invalidated by behaviors common to dedicated athletes. For one to reach their personal pinnacle of performance, it's all about...

What do you have to say to marathon runners, triathletes, and ultra-endurance athletes? Those kinds of people are (undoubtedly) in better shape than you'll ever be. There's more than meets the eye...

That's why you cook it. Lots of meats are full of bacteria and nasty stuff that can be harmful if undercooked. Remember a few years back a handful of people got sick (and some died) of E-Coli in...

No, I agree. I hate junk food. And it isn't that my food tastes bad, per se, but not being much of a red meat eater, it's just hard sometimes to prepare/eat chicken daily and not get bored of it. ...

I guess because I'm not used to eating food that tastes as good :-) I've been a big chicken eater and buffalo is just a totally different primal caveman kinda taste. Thanks!

I've just had red meat for the first time in probably over a year and it was amazing. Trader Joes has frozen buffalo burgers that I was interested in incorporating into my diet.

That's a pretty vain and shallow reason not to participate in a sport you enjoy. Nowhere is it written in stone that doing track = losing muscle. From what you've said, you don't sound like the...

If you can get it, there's not a drop of shame in seeking the guidance of a professional psychologist. Sometimes when life comes down on us like that, we're unable to see the forest for the trees. ...

Maybe more importantly: what are the nutritional stats? More than likely, you'll be fine eating that jar. If it's a problem, be sure to pick up PB with just peanuts in the future, but I don't think...
