Liquid Diet Foods

A big no-no
Too much salt in your diet raises the risk of heart attacks and stroke. And the same can be said for sugar. However, experts agree that consuming small amounts of both every day isn’t detrimental to your health. But the same can’t be said for trans fatty acids.

High Protein Food – The Key to Feeding the Furnace
As every bodybuilder knows, have the battle is having the proper diet for your goals, and there isn’t a successful workout regiment around that doesn’t include a diet loaded with high protein food. High protein food comes in many forms, and while most people automatically assume meat, that isn’t always the best source (although meat does consistently provide a high level of protein). Beans, shakes, and whey protein are just a few of the other options available, and all of them provide the protein building blocks needed to be part of a great bodybuilder’s diet.
High protein foods should definitely be at the top of your diet list whether the goal is to become a high level bodybuilder, lose weight on a diet, or some middle of the road combination of both. Protein is definitely your friend.
There are many high protein food that you should consider as part of your diet. Some of these foods include:
• Buffalo
• Turkey
• Lean Beef
• Chicken
• Fish
• Organic Beans
• Whey Protein (supplement added to shake)
• Eggs
• Nuts (go for unsalted and unsweetened)
• Skim Milk
• Cheese
These are just some of the great foods groups that provide high protein food. There are many other choices, but that list includes some of the best, and a good mix of these foods will help you build muscles, maintain your current muscle mass, and eat foods that will heal your muscles after workouts. High protein food is an absolute necessity to get into, and stay in, good healthy shape.
If there is a downside to high protein food, it’s that the majority of them are high in fat, and some are very high in cholesterol. Some fats are good, but even if you have “good fat” like from fish, nuts, or olive oil, you don’t want too much. Then there are the terrible saturated fats and cholesterol that can harm you, threatening with heart disease and clogged arteries. This is where finding the good high protein food comes in. Fish, chicken, turkey, and beans are all considered some of the absolute best high protein foods because they are high in protein, tend to have more good fat than bad, and less of it (although some nuts are certainly high in the fat category).
That being said, you need to have a protein heavy diet, and there are plenty of great high protein foods that have reasonable amounts of fat. One of the major reasons pork was left off the list in this article isn’t because that’s a low protein meat (in fact it’s one of the best), but pork is one of the most unhealthy meats due to the bad fats and cholesterol and isn’t a good add. Meanwhile, grilled fish and chicken almost always make the list of top notch high protein foods that can be added to any diet without worry.
So do your homework, decide on the best combination of high protein food and you will be on your way.

High Protein Diet Foods

Whats a good and healty diet which has foods high in protein please help as im trying to gain muscle?
What kind of beans?
Here is a list of foods you should limit or avoid:
– Trans fat (any type of partially or fully hydrogenated oil)
– Saturated fat (found mostly in meats and dairy products)
– High fructose corn syrup (soft drinks are LOADED with it)
– Anything made with white flour or white sugar
– Fast food
– Junk food
Instead, build your diet around these foods that are high in protein, calcium, fiber, and heart-healthy fats:
– Nuts, any kind (almonds are best)
– Beans and legumes
– Spinach and other green vegetables
– Dairy products (low-fat or non-fat)
– Eggs
– Lean meats (fish and poultry are best)
– Olive oil
– Whole grain breads/cereals/pasta
– Fresh fruits (berries are best)
– Tea (green tea or black pekoe tea, home-brewed)
– Water (you’ll need to drink more on a high-protein diet)
– Whey protein
Whey protein is one supplement that has verified scientific evidence to back up its claims of helping to build muscle (creatine is the other). The best whey protein delivers at least 20g of protein per scoop and is as low in fat as possible. Champion Nutrition Pure Whey and Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard are two good choices.
P.S.: Trans fat and saturated fat are the two fats you need to avoid. The other types of fat, like mono-and-polyunsaturated fats, and the Omega fatty acids (Omega-3, Omega-6, and Omega-9) are all good for you. If you eat primarily from the list provided above, you’ll get plenty of “good” fats.

High Protein Low Carb Diet

What is considered a low carb number(in grams) in a low high protein, low carb diet?
The first 2 weeks you can have several cups a day of (mostly) lettuce and celery, cucumbers, radishes, mushrooms, peppers and more variety of vegetables thereafter add 5 grams per day additional (20 grams day first 2 weeks, 25grams 3rd week, 30grams 4th week etc) every week til you gain weight, then you subtract 10 carbs. That would give you your personal carb level (everyone is different and it depends on how active you are.) As long as you remain <9 carbs per hour, you will maintain insulin control, and shouldn't gain weight.
There is no reason to ever go off a low carb way of eating, you slowly re introduce carbs to your way of eating and as long as you don't exceed 9grams of carbs an hour (144 carbs a day) you will never trigger insulin (the fat storage hormone) no matter the calories. Most of us do low carb most of the time and occasionally cheat and slip back into low carb the next day. If you gain weight, drop your carbs a few grams til you slide back into loss mode. Who wants to spend their life on semi deprivation? The longer you don't do carbs, they really kind of lose their appeal. (Tastes like wet dough) I still cheat with sugar occasionally. It's just not a regular part of my life (as it was preAtkins, nearly 6 years ago, when I felt it controlled me & I had no control)
You can also cheat easier than someone in glycolysis. IF you trigger insulin, all those carbs that would go to fat cells on someone in glycolysis instead fill up the empty glycogen stores & go to muscles for burning instead of fat cells. Which would slow weight loss but if you're in maintenance, weight loss is not a concern. (neat little bonus package) Some folks with massive amounts of weight to lose, do weight loss, maintenance & back to weight loss mode - gives them a cheat period without blowing anything.
The rungs to reintroduction of carbs in 5 gram units - all available to very active people in as little as 11 weeks. Make sure you do them in order & you can skip a rung if you do not intend to include it in your permanent way of eating, such as the alcohol rung.:
* (minimum week 3 - maximum 25grams day) Acceptable vegetables, larger quantities
* (minimum week 4 - maximum 30grams day) Add 5grams Fresh cheese
* (minimum week 5 - maximum 35grams day) Add 5grams Nuts and seeds
* (minimum week 6 - maximum 40grams day) Add 5grams Berries
* (minimum week 7 - maximum 45grams day) Alcohol can be added if desired
* (minimum week 8 - maximum 50grams day) Add 5grams Legumes
* (minimum week 9 - maximum 55grams day) Add 5grams Other fruits
* (minimum week10 - maximum 60grams day) Add 5grams Starchy vegetables
* (minimum week11 - maximum 65grams day) Add 5grams Whole grains
If you are continuing to lose or maintain (whichever is goal) in week 12 and beyond, you continue to add 5grams a day per week til you reach your personal carb level.
Many people gain weight on high carb, then switch to low carb to lose weight & then are shocked when they return to high carb that they gain weight. (Isn't insanity defined as doing the exact same thing, in the exact same way and expecting different results??) Many people can return to moderate carb levels but very few can really eat all they want of sugar and maintain weight or health.
You will lose more body fat eating protein and fat (don't eat protein alone) than not eating AT ALL. To lose weight fast eat all you want but nothing but meat, eggs, healthy oils, mayo, butter and half an avocado a day (you'll need added potassium). Keep the calories high and the fat percentage high, at least 65% of calories. Adding in green vegetables & some cheese will continue weight loss but at a slower pace.
Your body won't release fat stores if you lower calories below what it needs. It will slow your metabolism to compensate and store every spare ounce as fat. If you continue lowering your calories, it will continue lowering that set point, til you can survive off nothing and store fat on anything. The body will only release it's fat stores if it knows there is plenty of food.
Eating carbs while trying to lose body fat is terribly inefficient. When in glycolysis (burning glucose as fuel) you have to lower your calories (which slows your metabolism) and exercise heavily to deplete your glycogen stores before burning body fat.
The core of the Atkins program is converting your body from glycolysis (burning glucose as fuel) to ketosis (burning fat as fuel). You need to keep your fat levels at >65% of your calories, if you don’t your body will still remain in glycolysis by converting 58% of excess protein into glucose (via gluconeogenesis).
It takes minimum of 3 days to convert your body to ketosis, (but only one bite to convert back to glycolysis) you will probably feel sluggish the first week but most people feel better than ever thereafter.
Simple carbohydrates (sugar, flour, bread, cereal, pasta, potatoes, rice) triggers insulin which can store the calories you eat into
