I misread that post as 35% of all food intake. I hope no one out there mistakenly goes ahead and consumes 35% of their diet in saturated fat. Screw boneless chicken breast. How about gristle? :D

You can always get another liver. Original livers, like original engines, are overrated. :D

Buy your perishable items every other day or so. That's what I do. I have a full-sized fridge and I have plenty of space as I live alone. It's a freshness and quality issue not a space issue for me....

No wonder they taste like "crap pellets". Try more like 45 minutes in a pot not 45 seconds in a microwave. If you were to buy brand name, like McCann's, the can will likely say 30 minutes but they...

I bought two bottles of fish oil capsules at Walgreen's the other day. They were on sale at 2 for about $9, I think. That gives you 320 capsules with 180mg EPA and 120mg DHA each. There may be a...

I've been downing a bowl of steel cut oats and eggs on the side for breakfast for the past week. The uncooked oats weigh 130g and they fit in the small 6oz (3/4 U.S. cup) measuring cup that comes...

The amount of needed flax seed oil, or Omega 3 fatty acids for that matter, is a matter of educated (and sometimes uneducated) opinion, not fact. Current thinking is that it's a good idea to maintain...

The amount of saturated fat you should have in your diet is heavily disputed. Unfortunately, there are plenty of studies to support any opinion you might have on this. The Japanese average about 10...

One percent milk contains 1% milkfat, etc.

OK, here's a weird idea. I haven't tried this but I'll toss it out there.

One way to make green tea ice cream is to add powdered green tea (called matcha) to vanilla ice cream. I've done this and...

All right, who's going to be first to sprinkle green tea leaves on their oatmeal? :D

In places where green tea is consumed in quantity like Japan, it is not common to use any sweetener at all. Unlike black tea, green tea is not fermented and I don't think it needs to be sweetened....

Be a man and use a mortar. Women and girly men use things with batteries like coffee grinders and vibrators. :)

OK, I'm kidding about that but consider a large mortar. Depending on what and how...

I feel for you. My weight is the same as yours and only the other day did I really count my calories (thanks, FitDay) and realized that I was coming up short. I thought I had been eating more than...

The ratio is important. Omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids compete to be transformed into what are called eicosanoids.

Count all your protein. While some protein is absorbed more quickly than other protein, it all helps. There are vegetarian (Bill Pearl) and even vegan bodybuilders who receive significant or even all...

I know that people who carbo load sometimes bloat because the glycogen that is created from the carbs requires plenty of water to be stored along with it. It's the reverse of what happens to people...

I can't imagine any supermarket not carrying brown rice. Ask.

Whole Foods has a variety of brown rice in their bulk bins. You could bring home small amounts of several different types (jasmine,...

If you've recently started using creatine, it could be that. I put on some water weight pretty quickly shortly after I started even though I hadn't yet increased my calorie intake. It's the first...
