i think its good for health if i'm going to go out partying, but for body composition i can't argue for it. anecdotally, many people have had good results with it, so i guess its possible we don't know the full story yet.

sorry i'm unsure of the answer. but if you're worried about it, you could simply use fish oil and bypass the need for conversion altogether.

fructose preferentially refills liver glycogen stores; you want a carb that will help refill muscle glycogen.

my favorites are baked potatoes and bagels.

5--> calorie needs vary a lot for each person, so the best way to determin your maintnance need is to just find out how much it takes for you to stay at a body weight. then, as mentioned, drop 500/day to find out how many calories to take in to lose weight. exercise will help as it burns...

could you say more about "environmental estrogens"? thanks

have you considered at some point making a multivitamin specific for althetes needs? perhaps including higher than typical zinc, calcium, etc? a well designed and high quality (given some threads concerned about digestablility of some multis) product woudl be appreciated.

concentrating on staple foods and non-meat protein is a good way to keep costs down. milk, eggs, beans, peanuts/almonds, and tuna can help with cheap protein, especially compared to chicken breasts. beans, oats, brown rice, bananas, potatoes, eggs and milk make up the bulk of my diet when i'm...

i don't find it to be all that hard. if i don't make the allotted protein for one of my four meals (in your case it would be about 37g) then a few glasses of milk or a protein shake is very quick. also making sure each meal has a good source like beans or eggs or meat is helpful.

also humans already live quite a bit longer than we should given our size/metabolic rate, even compared to other primates. pure speculation: could be due to evolutionary benefit of older humans to a clan becuase of the knowlege and leadership they would have provided, so perhpas "life...

i think the problem is that it would have to only break down connective tissue in muscle. otherwise you will destroy your tendons and ligaments.

if you are concerned with mercury levels look for a filtered fish oil. it might be more expensive.

that guy should be glad he has good genetics, with nutritional knowlege like that... think about total calories, and getting them from good, natural foods. and things like olive oil will help your heart and satiety too.

i should be getting some green tea extract tomorow. :|

if i remember correctly, the problem with a straight up comparison of soy to beef is that they don't correct for hte higher zinc of beef. if that is your main source, and switch to soy makes you zinc-defficient, then it could affect testrosterone.
