I have come to realise, that on low carbs, with more fat and protein

[Rami]

the mind muscle connection increases albeit reps are lower

while on high carb mind muscle connection is lesser but one can do more reps



now, how do we combine this?

[ukjeff]

its because on low carbs the only thing you can think about is your muscle, on higher carbs your mind is more active and has better things to think about than lifting weights.

is it true that 100 carb grams per day are required for normal brain functioning?

my nutrition prof told me so

It's irrelevant for people without brains, hence your professor's answer

exactly i eat the carbs every other day. that way if i over eat carbs the surplus is used next day

yes I think you're right, in how on low carbs you are more in tuned with the body and it's feedback loops, while on high carbs it become more of "foreign body" in a sense.


it's probably hardwired into us

residual carbs from a high carb day going into a low carb day get used by the muscles no doubt about it..

but the low carb day you dont have to worry about the glycemic index weighing you down because the carbs are already in you

dreams/dark energy/information from the future are more readily available when i sleep on a low carb day. perhaps insulin=carbs=my grains=migranes cause the brain to inflame too much thus smears the dream

dreams=smaerd= smeared =confusion or less clarity

this is truly a courageous and flexible approach

too much of what we do is on a daily basis, we need to think bigger

yes this way we can understand both sides

carbs do give muscle energy (rice, pancakes)

but foods like carrots and beats heal the body and neural/mind

weird I was just talking about carrots and beets in the other thread. we sure are in tuned with the seasons

i used to think brocolli was enough since it covers vitamin a and c ect.

but then i relized im only fooling myself if i think just one food choice  is all i need because i already know better but sometimes get trapped in  lower thinking and forget the unique properties each food has

is it true that 100 carb grams per day are required for normal brain functioning?

my nutrition prof told me so

No. Your brain needs glucose. Your prof is an idiot.

[Marty Champions]

No. Your brain needs glucose. Your prof is an idiot.

please dont point out stuff we know, we are only humans. its like when people correct your and you're and claim have no grasp of english. NOw youve made me feel gay for correcting you

and why do you want dark energy to be readily available?

[Rami]

seems to me during the autumn, the earth makes it abundantly clear that we should eat foods of orange, red and yellow in color

[dj181]

No. Your brain needs glucose. Your prof is an idiot.

yeah, but carbs get broken down into glucose right?

[Disgusted]

please dont point out stuff we know, we are only humans. its like when people correct your and you're and claim have no grasp of english. NOw youve made me feel gay for correcting you

Maybe you are gay anyway and correcting me just made you realise it. Oh and my iPhone spell check changed it just FYI.

[Marty Champions]

and why do you want dark energy to be readily available?

dark energy is information from the future as i have stated

dreams are a form of dark energy

you could also say that a dream is  dark energy and that is information from the past and future

[Disgusted]

yeah, but carbs get broken down into glucose right?

Correct and so can protein if need be.

[Marty Champions]

x2

[dj181]

Correct and so can protein if need be.

yeah, but the thing is, carbs are or can be an immediate source of energy, while protien is not and cannot be

[BigRo]

I see, Do you meditate before sleep for more lucid dreams?

[Rami]

Correct and so can protein if need be.

but utilizing protein in this regard is like a drug, it makes one feel good but this is just a survival mechanism, and harder for you in the long run.

[Marty Champions]

I see, Do you meditate before sleep for more lucid dreams?

no

if i was more dedicated to revealing my dreams id set my alarm for every hour in the night and right down what i could each time i would wake

but thats not practicle or enjoyable

dreams are always information packed but not usually useful. but its that small percentage rarity of usefull dream that make it all special

[Disgusted]

yeah, but the thing is, carbs are or can be an immediate source of energy, while protien is not and cannot be

You are talking about two different things here. Sure carbs are an immediate source of energy, but you are talk about the brain it needs a small amount of glucose. Your professor should clarify his statement. Go to him and tell him what I told you. Be respectful, but ask him does the brain need carbs or glucose? I'm curious to know if he understands this.
