I just finished my BS in nutrition, ask me anything!

[ForkSpoons]

Like the title says I finished my BS with a major in nutrition and a minor in anatomy, if there is anything you would like to know ask me and I will be glad to help

[SumDumGoi]

Will you be going for a Masters degree in Nutrition?

[ForkSpoons]

@ SumDumGoi

No I plan on doing Dietics

[SumDumGoi]

As in you are planning on starting a career in dietetics or you are going for a Masters in Dietetics?

Are carbs the cause of fat gain?

What's your stand on IIFYM?

Does eating saturated fat lead to fat gain?

[ForkSpoons]

Yeah, I've applied to a few schools. Hopefully I will be accepted in september, I'm still unsure about all the requirements but I think I might have to do my honors first. I haven't looked into that deeply. I only finished this past semester, I did a extra summer semester so I finished early.

OP: Please answer Ven's questions in post #5.


Given the username, this thread has an unusual amount of potential.

1) If a client came to you and asked for advice on a dietary approach to prevent/reverse CHD, what would you say?
2) Your thoughts regarding protein requirements for bodybuilders?

Good luck

[oskarhul09]

do you even pick up weighted objects and then put them down in a controlled manner?

[ForkSpoons]

@ Ven

Yes carbs spike insulin which causes you to gain weight, they should really be avoided at night or any times when you might be inactive shortly after.

What's IIFYM?

Saturated fats raise bad cholesterol, cause hear disease and makes the body more inefficient at breaking down vitamins and minerals.

To much protein can cause kidney disease and should be limited to about 50-75g per day

@ Oskarhul

Not really, I was on the track team and mainly run and ski.

Lmao. I feel bad for the poor soul who hires you as his/her diet coach.

Please reflect on the cultural traditions regarding FOOD with respect to your own family or those of a friend's/relative's family with whom you are familiar. Are there food items served (particularly those served at holiday meals or to mark other cultural 'rites of passage') that are difficult to obtain in your immediate neighborhood? If you are the "steak and potatoes" type and NEVER have difficulty attaining these traditional food items, please create a list of local retail grocery outlets/specialty shops that cater to particular ethnic groups in your regional area. Please share these findings with your classmates and professor.

What utter crap.

Do you avoid protein at those times too, as some proteins are more insulinogenic than some CHO?

Please read the following and then explain your view in light of the abundant peer-reviewed research presented in said links:

Trolls should be entertaining. This is silly and boring.

@ rich

Omit trans and saturated fats from their diet, avoid processed foods, eat more fruits and foods rich in omega 3-6-9 fatty acids.

Entertain for a moment the possibility that this is not a troll thread. Ok, the chance is perhaps 1:100,000, but still...oh, ok, it's an obvious troll thread.

[ForkSpoons]

@ wonderpug

In all fairness the links you just posted are threads on a body building forum, taking said information with anything less then a grain of salt is down right dangerous. I'm sorry but I cannot post any peer reviewed studies because the majority of the information I know comes from actual university text books. If I had the time I could go through some of my texts and find these studies.

@ rich

What's a troll?

If trolling: Try harder.
If serious: Get a refund.

This thread is a good example of how so much money is wasted at universities with nothing to show for it. But that's a topic for another day.

The links are to posts containing direct links to numerous peer-reviewed journal published research studies that directly refutes your silly statement.

Now please try to answer the question again.

You're joking, right?

If you're not, please see: http://www.nutritionandmetabolism.com/content/2/1/25



Please try to troll with more skill next time.

I like to stick to minimally processed foods that are low in sodium, fat and sugars.

Good luck with your skin, brain, and test health goals in 2012.

@ wonderpug

Well I guess I will have to go through those links more throughly then, but again I can only take said studies with a grain of salt. I have found much of what is posted on the Internet including "peer reviewed studies" often are not done properly and have biases.
