Whey/spiking blood sugar/insulin/IGF-1 may not be good for your overall health or acne, but it's definitely good for muscle growth. It really just depends on where you want to draw the line. I've been...

I don't know any areas specifically. What I do know is living on a farm and going by the healthiest recipes would be an awesome way to live. It's difficult to have the motivation to get creative with ...

It sounds like we should all just live on a ranch together where everything is like a fairytale. Perfectly organic, natural, and acne-free!

Most people stop short looking at labels. Example: They see "0g Trans fat" and think yay! But they miss the .4g listed as partially hydrogenated/shortening/fractioned or however else it is hidden. You...

So true. It's funny (but sad) seeing people my age (20s) having to go see nutritionists (who also don't know wtf they are talking about) because they have horrible cholesterol, blood pressure, insulin...

This article should convince those who like research and knowing their stuff, like me. Reason #25039 why I will never be a vegan.

For anyone interested in maintaining physical activity in conjunction with this, it's actually more awesome than any traditional diet could be. I believe there were links and mentions of it earlier in...

Kefir, peanut (or almond) butter, a banana, vanilla whey, and honey. Maybe add some berries if I feel like it. The ultimate weight gainer shake!

I am convinced that peanut butter causes mild cystic acne for me but it usually takes 1-2 weeks to show up. I am 41 yrs old and had moderate whitehead with some cystic type acne in my teen and early ...

I have a question for you smoothie-people.   Would you say adding too many things at one is bad? I've just been making the smoothies once and having half that day and putting the other half in t...

Oats don't contain gluten but you can bet your ass they are contaminated with it, especially with a brand like that. You could buy Bob's Red Mill steel cut oats (or rolled if you prefer, whatever) by ...

Are rolled oats bad in any way? Rolled oats lose nutritional value in the process, I'd just go with steel cut. I prefer eating those anyways. I need to get on that soaking thing.

Coconut milk is like eating all of the contents of a coconut, while the oil is only the fatty part of it. Both are very beneficial for your health, but you probably wouldn't wanna over-do it and have ...

Just whatever. It doesn't really matter. I don't think it would make an entirely significant difference if you only kept it to one type of tea, or if you just simply drank water.   I would do it...

I just drank Yogi teas like Detox, Ginger, Super Antioxidant Green Tea, Bedtime tea (before bed).   Just came up with it myself. Tea could only help and it wouldn't bother my digestive system so...

Yeah, all my pimples cleared up and I got like 1-2 new ones because I ate junk in the days before that, but that's why I took the "fast". It's only naturally gonna clear up your skin if you fast like ...

I drank water and tea. It was for like a 48 hour period only and I ran on the second day. Like I said not a big deal. I got tired of lack of energy.

Don't overthink shit man. I only did it once and I just drank green tea/cinnamon tea/digestive tea and stuff like that. Not a big deal or anything strict.   Anyways, you definitely don't want to...

I can blend up meat and it's still meat. The point is it's derived from a solid food and that's what I was getting at.

Tea fasting isn't food though, it's just tea. I wouldn't do a fast where I actually ate one certain solid food for like a week or whatever. Plus I'm too active for that shit.

dragonfly - Strawberries shouldn't bother you, all berries are great.   Smack'd - Ice cubes would be okay I just wouldn't bite on them (though that does take all the fun out of it). Also, any fa...

Sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, almonds, cashews, walnuts, pecans, brazil nuts, macadamia nuts.   Another snack I like is just eating plain ol' quinoa by the spoonful.

Any man. Just make sure it's only the seed or nut and nothing else.   With all of this, I suppose, certain people react differently. I feel a lot of people overreact when it comes to the more nat...

Just eat one a day, it's really all you need. I eat one after runs/work-outs or before going to sleep.

I eat a lot of bananas.. good or bad? One a day is the shit.
