  • Mug of oats, tablespoon of soya protein, mug of milk. Cook. Top with a dollop of crunchy peanut butter.
  • See your doctor! What one person recommends can be absolute crap for the next. That's the bottom line. I can't recommend what I take as I have no idea about you, and that should be rule for all the stuff you're being told here. Some vitamins and minerals don't absorb properly in the presence of others (Zinc doesn't get…
  • Krav Maga is a very effective self defence skill. I used to do a lot of mixed martial arts (back before it was the circus it is now) and up there alongside the soviet Systema and Jeet Kune do for effectiveness outside of the bars on a saturday night (rather than looking pretty in pyjamas, bowing to a flag) was Krav Maga.…
  • If you really have 'flu' you really must not do any exercise other than reach for tissues. Any exercie stresses your immune system slightly, if you are fighting flu this could be exactly what your flu virus wants (figuratively speaking). If you have a bad cold, a little bit of a walk will be helpful, but that's about it.…
  • Your liver detoxes itself automatically, that is one of the marvelous things it does. Detox diets are hippie rubbish (imho :)). If your liver needed 'detoxing' you would be very unwell already. High cholesterol is a possible result of many many things. Don't overdo the drinking (really, do not), eat well and varied and get…
  • I like tats a lot BUT they have to be something nice to look at. A well done inking of a dreadful picture is, sadly, hideous. My personal guidelines are that it is something personal (even if it is a general bit of flash) and that it is something that has to be shown, that is not on display constantly. All of mine have to…
  • Nice.
  • I almost always mix it in milk, it never seems to dissolve right in water. Sticking it in the blender with a banana works too. You have to drink it fast too as it solidifies quick!
  • Adele is just right. More to love. Nuff said.
  • drinking enough water? varied and balanced food intake? exrecising too much? working in an air conditioned office or spending time in an air conditioned car?
  • very good. don't confuse caffiene with coffee though, as has been pointed out a lattte is not going to lose you a pound. Pro plus or whatever caffiene pill is available to you will speed up your metabolism a little and caffiene also triggers your body to burn fat tissue rather than the carbs in your body…
  • Don't want to sound like that guy but muscular glycogen stores get burnt up in about 20 seconds of steady, continuous exercise. Then muscles go to using the anaerobic aspect of the ATP cycle (lactic acid production as a by product) as it is difficult to provide sufficient oxygen for normal energy production. Once your…
  • Assuming that you've no metabolic disorders (diabetes, thyroid issues) it is the case that, basically, an excess of food whether fat, carb or protein will lead to a increase in body fat. The ease of use for the energy contained in your food is dependent upon where the calories come from, we as an animal are designed to get…
