Looks good, I'd throw in a few whole eggs
It's interesting to me because I've heard/observed that before. What is the rationale?
Egg yolks are an excellent source of organic matter to compliment serious training. Remember that sex hormones like testosterone are lipid-soluble cholesterol derivatives. The protein in the egg is highly bioavailable and anti-catabolic, and the fat supports healthy hormone levels. Whole eggs promote anabolism like few natural foods can.
Good information. Thank you Mr. Moderator!
x2 Maybe it is placebo effect, but when I eat whole eggs or even steak I notice a difference in training that day. Not a massive difference like bench went from 400 to 500 but I don't tire as easy, can sometimes go a little heavier, or squeak out some extra reps/sets. So there seems to be something to this idea.
chuck all the processed grain crap and add a ton of fat...then it would be healthy
I was waiting for you to say that Woo. And I wasn't disappointed. What fat should I add?
top 3 fat sources:organic lardorganic coconut oilorganic butterany of the 3 would dramatically improve the value of your breakfast
You follow the Keto Diet and are well-read.Isn't coconut oil supposed to be one of the most ketogenic fats there is?
yep (I follow LCHF now (the Swedish keto diet))to your coconut oil question: it is... 86.5% saturated if I remember correctly almost no PUFA...roughly half of that saturated fat is lauric acid (again, going from memory here) lauric acid converts to the monoglyceride monolaurin in the bodymonolaurin behaves like a monounsaturated fat and has additional antimicrobial benefits in addition to causing huge increases in HDL for most people
Thanks for the info.Did they ever discover why ketogenic diets help prevent seizures in children?Does it have comparable effects on adults?I love being able to ask someone these types of questions. I'm growing tired of researching!
the ketogenic diet and coconut oil therapy in particular is supposed to do lots of things... i don't think there are enough double-blind studies out there to prove anything yet, but I would suggest that anyone following a whole (raw) food diet (no processed foods) that also includes a large amount of coconut oil & lard will be significantly healthier than the alternative
The evidence certainly points in that direction.
I'm living evidence...
Q.E.D., baby!!
