  • as someone who has been known to go extended periods between movements, I can say with absolute certainty that there are medical benefits to an accessional cleanse. there are two different methods that I like to use depending on the severity of my pooch at the time. this one is the quickest, but your not going to want to…
  • its being upside down that matters this raises your center of gravity so the scale perceives you lighter. generally speaking it will throw off the balance scales more than a digital one. on a digital scale its easier just to lean.
  • we are two of a kind brother.
  • if your doing that kind of intense training the extra water retention might not be a bad thing. MFP uses a fixed rate for sodium when the amount that you consume should be in proportion to the amount you sweat. that being said the best way to flush excess sodium and water from your system is to sweat more. if you do a hard…
  • wouldn't do any good, some of that sugar gets into your blood while your still chewing. keep in mind while most fruit have a low concentration of carbs it is mostly sucrose, also known as table sugar a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose, as well as some pure fructose.
  • it is also worth noting that the carbs in fruit are almost entirely disaccharides are broken down and metabolized much more rapidly than the polysaccharides in vegetables, and grains.
  • homemade of corse.
  • don't go to your doctor. if you have any questions or concerns about a new medication talk to your pharmacist, that is his job.

  • you must be buying duck eggs or something, the average large chicken egg has 4g of fat that bring you to 16g total 18 once you count the cooking fat. there are some recent studies that show increasing dietary cholesterol along with more regular exercise can lower blood cholesterol.
  • here are a few workarounds I've found. you say you like pasta? have you tried making your own tomato sauce. I start with canned tomatoes, usually whole but since I dice them you could use diced. then I get out the vegetables the base is 2 parts onion to 1 part carrot and celery. I sweat the vegetables as well as what ever…
  • the carbs in wheat or any grain for that matter are of the same concentration and type with or without the bran. it doesn't matter if your eating white bread or whole wheat (witch is only about 40% whole wheat anyway, without adding chemicals) the carbs are the same. white flour, or white rice, etc. is not processed much…
  • your assuming that cardio and weight training have to be separate? why? if done right 20 min of weight training can give every bit as much of a cardio workout as 20 min on a treadmill. I mean the whole idea of cardio is to get your heart rate up and keep it up, and you can do that while weight training. use a small amount…
  • here is what you want to do to minimize injury warm up first 3-5 minutes as hard as you can then stretch. stretching serves absolutely no purpose if your muscles are cold, then do your weight training, then more cardio to cool down and stretch again. if you want to do extended cardio, it doesn't matter if it is in the warm…
  • I never said these traits are carnivorous, I said they are predatory. all scavengers from the common field mouse to a mountain gorilla are technically predators even if those animal proteins are less than 10% of there diet it would be very difficult for them to function without them. the same goes for us it is possible for…
  • gorillas are scavengers if they come across a fresh dead animal they will eat it. they also have an odd habit of ignoring perfectly good vegetation for some that is infested with bugs of some type or another. supplement: Something added to complete a thing, make up for a deficiency, or extend or strengthen the whole. a…
  • its not an issue of bacteria in the cow, the bacteria that naturally occurs in milk are highly beneficial digestive aids and have also been shown to improve the immune system. the real issue is bacteria getting in the milk between the cow and the carton. the smaller the scale (fewer cows pooling there milk) the less likely…
  • that ratio of protein to fat is going to be very difficult to maintain the usda recommendation is 53/18/29 carbs/protein/fat I wouldn't go that far off. if you want to go high protein low carb I would say 45/25/30 but that is just me, my ratios are set 60/15/25 I'm trying to get as much grain in my diet as I can.
  • you know you just kind of proved my point here. by your own statement, you have to be careful about what you eat and take a supplement. second gorillas do eat meat, like most primates the base of there diet is fruit, however they do eat quite a bit of insects, as well as birds and small rodents, when they can get them.
  • there are a few things you forgot to mention. all human beings have certain traits. we have strong vision with eyes in the front of our heads, we have sharp pointed teeth, we have claws, and we walk upright. all of these are biological traits of predators. when considering changes in diet this is a factor. for day to day…
  • you should try it with goats milk. if your yogurt came out too thick that is probably because either the milk you used didn't have enough fat in it, or you let it incubate too long, or some combination of the two.
  • try switching to tea, a good oolong tea has more caffeine than most coffee, but its released slowly into the body. intead of getting a boost in the morning you get a steady buzz all day.
  • as I had stated above you could just carbonate the fruit juice. put a little yeast in the bottle and let it sit out for a day or so then put it in the fridge.
  • the nutritional recommendation chart. its based on percentages of overall calories, 50% carbs 20% protein 30% fat, well actually 53% carbs 18% protein 29% fat but no need to be that precise. I'm on a fairly specific diet so I changed mine to 60% carbs 20% protein 20% fat
  • don't forget about molasses, a Tbs of molasses in a glass of orange juice can make a big difference on your iron level.
  • almost all the molasses on the market is unsulphered, and what isn't is usually intended for livestock consumption. the difference between fancy molasses and blackstrap is the point in processing where it is removed. after the first yield in sugar refinement the sap leftover is fancy molasses which still has a lot of sugar…
  • regardless of brand it's the same stuff, if it is fancy molasses rather than blackstrap it might be a little lower. you may want to try taking it with orange juice rather than milk, the vitamin c helps with the absorption of iron.
  • first off the original recipe for coke did not contain coca it contained cocaine. comparing natural coca to cocaine is like comparing good coffee to 100% pure caffeine. at this particular point in time cocaine was considered the next miracle drug it was going to relive people of there addiction to morphine which worked by…
  • I work in fast food, Burger King actually, I started as a crew member now I'm HSC. in my first year or so working there I ate a lot of burger king. when I work 11-7 or 7-3 with no break, its really easy just to grab a sandwich. after a while I started feeling horrible, nauseous most of the time, had no energy. it took me a…
  • this may sound a bit odd but have you tried a slice of cucumber. a sushi bar around here does it and its fantastic, it adds a subtle sweetness rather than overwhelming pungency.
  • what would you say if I told you fast food caused me to loose weight? 50+ pounds in fact.
