Looking for help on calculating my tdee.
Age: 19
Weight: 190
Height: 6' 3"

I lift three times a week doing SL 5x5
I run three times a week with a scaling distance; 10 miles on mon, 5-7 of wed, and 3-5 on fri.
I also swim for funsies once a week.

Using that as a baseline, regardless of work and hiking, how much should I be eating?

tl;dr: recommend to me a good calorie calculator and then ways to measure its accuracy.

Thanks a ton for any help.

How do I improve my appetite? In particular, can I make my stomach less sensitive, particularly in the morning and after caffeine?

>>32147038
There isn't enough research to credit the benefits of taking a dietary supplement over obtaining proper nutrition from food. There is no substitute for a healthy diet. Most people often indulge in fruit more than they should, however, so I usually get a question along the lines of the opposite of that.

>"I eat all kinds of fruit every day! Why am I still fat?!"

>>32147070
The biggest thing is to stay hydrated. The second biggest thing is to deal with the stressors occurring in your everyday life.

It also doesn't hurt to engage in cardio at some point in the day. This will make you physically tired and you'll fall asleep easier at night.

>>32147076
Compared to regular blood glucose, sugar alcohol won't raise your glucose levels the same way carbohydrates will. This is because it doesn't completely absorb into your system like normal alcohol will, resulting in it taking more of a toll on your gastrointestinal system, and can lead to things like diarrhea. The calorie range can be anywhere from zero to three or four calories per gram, depending on what form you're ingesting. Xylitol is usually what most manufacturers go for, and you can look up the nutritional facts of it online.

>>32147085
It's great, especially if you're working out. It's a great way to consume larger amounts of protein in your diet for the purpose of building muscle.The problem is, most people waste it since it is water-soluble, you quite literally piss away everything your body doesn't use. The average rate at which you absorb the protein directly is about 8-10 grams per hour. That means your body only uses around 12-15 grams of each shake, even if you're using far more per scoop.

>>32147095
You need to do stretching and try not to over-exert yourself when lifting. Look up some strength-training yoga. See a physical therapist or clinical exercise physiologist if you don't see any results.

wat do for cholesterol if I'm roiding?

How long did it take to be a nutritionist? How much do you make a year?

>>32147099
Cholesterol imbalance is an extremely common problem these days.Regularly doing cardiovascular exercise can help lower your LDL and raise your HDL. If you maintain good cardiovascular health and a healthy body fat percentage, you'll also be maintaining a healthy blood pressure and lower your risk of sudden plaque ruptures, clots, cardiovascular disease, and even stroke.

>>32147138
"Cleanses" and "detoxes" are complete nonsense. Your body is perfectly capable of "cleansing" itself of toxins. You just have to have a healthy, balanced diet. You'll start to notice changes within the first few days.

>In September 2001, Dr. Ranjit Chandra, a prominent nutrition researcher, published a study about the effects of vitamin supplementation on the cognitive functions of the elderly.[28] Roberts and Saul Sternberg, a psychology professor at the University of Pennsylvania, discovered inconsistencies in the data presented, specifically in the data distribution and standard deviation.[29] Roberts is quoted as stating "the results were not just implausible, they were impossible." [30] The story received recognition in both the British Medical Journal and the New York Times.[30][31] The CBC ran a three-part documentary about the controversy called The Secret Life of Dr. Chandra.[32] In 2005, Nutrition issued a retraction of Chandra's original paper.[33]

I'm 20, female, and have an average bmi, all be it at the top end of the scale. I weigh 67kg and I'm about 5'5". I eat probably just under the amount of calories required for someone of my size. What I don't get is that I have this stomach chub that just won't budge. Seriously if I've eaten a big meal and I let it all hang out I can look 4 or 5 months pregnant. I also have a sister who's 5 years younger than me and eats almost double what I eat daily, yet has barely any gut at all. I don't get it. I ate pretty much the same as her at her age, was just as active but always had a gut on me. Why do I not look like her? I rarely ever eat fast food, rarely ever drink soda, eat fairly balanced meals. What gives?

>>32147833
The GMO isn't directly the problem here. It's the Roundup. The GMO allows more Roundup to be on the plant because the GMO makes it invulnerable to Roundup. In fact, it allows all of it as opposed to none.

That study shows male rats with 4x more estrogen than the control group, among other things that should probably bother someone more.

Is insulin levels to blame for making arteries brittle and crack, then causing cholesterol to clog the cracks? Therefore, making cholesterol and saturated fat healthy and making sugar, simple carbs unhealthy.

I'm taking rainbow light men's daily vitamin but a few hours after when I go to urinate, my urine is a bright yellow with a green hue.

Is this an effective method for more absorption?

No. Look at your hip to waist ratio if you want an accurate representation of your risk for cardiovascular disease. HDL/total cholesterol is important, but dietary cholesterol is not. They inhibited the enzyme that cycles HDL to LDL and found a higher mortality rate. Vitamin K2, found in milks and cheeses, can prevent calcification of the tunica media of the blood vessel as well as the plaque on the inside

I'd suggest looking for psychological factors holding them back more than anything. People are comfortable at certain weights due to set points and have a hard time budging. Underweight individuals have to find caloric dense foods whilst fat people have to find food that is not so dense. People who are older have an array of different needs than that of a typical young peraon

>The new "saturated fat is healthy" fad is dangerous.
It's not a fad if it's how humans have been eating for thousands of years.
Basic foods like meat, eggs and nuts contain saturated fat. Nothing wrong with that.
Ofcourse nobody should go around eating kg's of red meat, or 30 eggs a day, but in moderation it's most likely fine.

>>32149794
Dietary cholesterol is not linked to blood cholesterol levels.

Saturated fat in moderation has not been proven be bad for you. In fact, it's the opposite as there have been studies that have linked saturated fat consumption with testosterone levels. If you are interested in muscle mass, it's vital you get sat. fat in your diet. That's also ignoring sat. fat's role in mental health and overall feelings of well being.

>>32149820

>I'm not >>32147541 but I agree with him.

Moderation defined by who? You? Proven by who, how?

>it's the opposite as there have been studies that have linked saturated fat consumption with testosterone levels. If you are interested in muscle mass, it's vital you get sat. fat in your diet

Which is also bullshit, but it wouldn't make saturated fat "healthy" even if it were true. At best you would be shortening your life for a mild testosterone boost

>coming from a society that is going "gluten free"

Just because it's popular doesn't make it right. Most of today's nutritional advice stems from research in the 70s that have since been debunked and that's a fact.

Basically every study is based on fatties eating hamburgers and then concluding "OMG SATURATED FAT IS GIVING PEOPLE HEART ATTACKS".

Show me a study utilizing fit adults who do cardio and maybe I'll change my mind.

>>32149811
Any study that just lumps all saturated fats into a single group is unscientific and seriously lacking in any kind of validity as to what conclusions can be drawn from dietary issues

>>32149933

What do you base any of that on? It's a worldwide accepted medical fact that saturated fats increase your risk of heart disease, regardless of if you're obese or sedentary or physically active or lean. You might as well be arguing that smoking doesn't increase your risk of lung cancer if you do cardio and aren't sedentary. It sounds nice in your head, but it's not based on anything

>>32149895
>diet advice of every health organization in the world
Mostly outdated info on these topics.
Not too long ago goverments were pushing the "less fat in food is better", which resulted in less fat and more carbs (specifically sugar). You know what the impact of that was.
Before the negative effects of trans fat were known, trans fats were said to be actually healtier fats. They were put in a lot of stuff as they were cheap.
Health organizations screw up.

>That would be an appeal to nature fallacy but it isn't even true to begin with
It's not a fallacy if it's true. The reason a lot of people get problems due to their diets is processed shit, added sugar, transfat, high carb, low fat/protein food. Just look at your average grocery store. Like 80% is mostly carbs with a lot of sugar.
Do you really think basic foods are unhealthy?

Except recent research doesn't show that smoking isn't unhealthy, while there are studies disproving that saturated fat is inherently unhealthy.

Source includes links to all applicable studies.

1. Dietary cholesterol has small effect on serum cholesterol compared to saturated fat

2. Feeding studies provide mixed evidence, however meta-analyses point to a lack of major effect

3. Those with very low baseline dietary cholesterol respond more than those with modest baseline cholesterol intake

4. Adding 300-400 mg cholesterol to a cholesterol free diet results in an increase in serum cholesterol, but subsequent addition of more cholesterol has little, if any, effects

--

I'll modify: dietary cholesterol is not linked to large changes in blood cholesterol

--

>http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/early/2010/01/13/ajcn.2009.27725.abstract

A meta-analysis of prospective epidemiologic studies showed that there is no significant evidence for concluding that dietary saturated fat is associated with an increased risk of CHD or CVD.

>http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0113605

Despite a distinct increase in saturated fat intake from baseline to the low-carbohydrate diet (46 to 84 g/day), and then a gradual decrease in saturated fat to 32 g/day at the highest carbohydrate phase, there were no significant changes in the proportion of total SFA in any plasma lipid fractions.

That actually never happened. People were told to eat less fat AND less sugar, and people ate more fat and more sugar. We eat more fat now than we ever have. Now you'll need a new excuse to say all the experts are wrong. As for trans fats, we didn't know the health effects of trans fats immediately. It's not in any way comparible to saturated fat, which has been studied extensively for more than half a century. Nobody has any doubt about it at this point except for people who desperately want to believe their favorite fatty foods are good for them.

>The reason a lot of people get problems due to their diets is processed shit, added sugar, transfat, high carb, low fat/protein food.

While I know you're not actually basing this on any data, you're also implying for whatever reason that if other harmful things exist then saturated fat must not be harmful. That's just looking for other things to blame

>>32150060

I'll agree that it doesn't cause as much of an increase as saturated fat, but the increase is there, and dietary cholesterol also increases the effect saturated fats have on your blood cholesterol.

>A meta-analysis of prospective epidemiologic studies showed

I'm very familiar with this one because everybody who's trying to find good things to say about saturated fat passes around this study without reading it or understanding it. It's funded by the National Dairy Council and co-athored by a guy who also takes money from the Cattlemans Beef Association and the Atkins Foundation. If you want to see why this meta-analysis is void, here's a video that breaks down the studies used to state that saturated fat isn't harmful

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-Tx9dCbv-g

I'm also familiar with the second study, funded by the Egg Nutrition Center, the Atkins Foundation, the Cattleman's Beef Association, The Beef Checkoff, and the Dairy Research Institute. The study authors, some of whom sit on the Science Advisory Board of the Atkins Foundation, experimented by feeding overweight diabetics (people with a broken glucose metabolism) varying degrees of saturated fat or questionable-quality carbohydrate. As the authors point out,

>isocaloric high-carbohydrate diets [4] and high-carbohydrate meals [5], [6] also promote DNL and hypertriglyceridemia in individuals with insulin resistance. The major product of DNL is palmitate (16:0), a saturated fatty acid (SFA)

In other words, not much difference was observed because the diabetics they performed the study on synthesize saturated fats when fed with sugar. Wherever you find these studies, stop taking information from them.

>That actually never happened.
How retarded are you?
Ever looked on the nutrition labels of "light/diet" products? Take for example peanut butter. They remove a part of the fat and replace it with sugar.

>We eat more fat now than we ever have.
Yes, because we eat more in general. More calories = more fat.

>Nobody has any doubt about it at this point
That's just wrong. There are recent studies that show their doubts.

I'm just gonna leave this here and stop this fruitless discussion (>you: "gobment says it's bad, so it's bad. >I: "In moderation it might not be bad.")

But I will keep this in mind and I might change my opinion.

>>32150209
Keto is perfectly fine. It's been used for decades to treat epileptics and there has been no adverse side effects. Keto has not been shown to have any major problems despite numerous studies being funded to prove otherwise.

You are welcome to research more into this issue. Anyone who says otherwise about Keto are pulling shit out of their asses.

>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2716748/

>Long-term effects of a ketogenic diet in obese patients

>The present study shows the beneficial effects of a long-term ketogenic diet. It significantly reduced the body weight and body mass index of the patients. Furthermore, it decreased the level of triglycerides, LDL cholesterol and blood glucose, and increased the level of HDL cholesterol. Administering a ketogenic diet for a relatively longer period of time did not produce any significant side effects in the patients. Therefore, the present study confirms that it is safe to use a ketogenic diet for a longer period of time than previously demonstrated.

>>32150250
Sketchy funding sources don't automatically discredit a study, but they should make you weary of its conclusions.

>>32150222

>For very specific issues like this, they very well could be. They're not infallible.

Not infallible, but weigh their expertise versus yours or anyone else who disagrees with them. It's all of the world's most experienced, educated scientists, studying a major contributing factor to what is the most major cause of death in the western world. Humble yourself a bit and admit you don't even deserve to have a real opinion on the matter, you're uneducated and have no clue about the topic. It's one thing to be skeptical and to accept it while asking questions, it's another to say everybody who's qualified to talk about it is completely wrong, especially when you're not at all familiar with the science

>How retarded are you?

I'll save you the trouble of having to actually research this yourself and just point you to the macronutrient breakdowns of the American diet from 1909 to 2010

http://www.cnpp.usda.gov/sites/default/files/nutrient_content_of_the_us_food_supply/KilocaloriesandMacronutrientsPerCapitaperDay1909-2010.xls

Whatever you want to assume the American diet is, fuck off with that and look at actual data. It's very high in fat, very high in refined carbs.

>Yes, because we eat more in general. More calories = more fat.

Didn't you say people eat less fat now? Apparently people aren't living off steamed rice and broccoli, they're eating lots of fat.

>That's just wrong. There are recent studies that show their doubts.

Same sentiments as above, the data required to convince you isn't the data required to convince people who actually know how to interpret studies, because you're not a scientist.

>>32150241
ketogenic diets are fucking stupid as hell. your body needs carbohydrates to function properly.

if youre morbidly obese and already dont give a shit about your health, and want to lose massive amounts of weight in an unhealthy way, then I guess that's the only time I'd recommend a ketogenic diet.

otherwise just restrict your carbs and go over some macronutrition articles and learn to eat properly for your fitness goals

>>32150423
BROSCIENCE. Doesn't understand the fundamentals of the ketogenesis.

>>32150250

I didn't just say "funded by industry, it's bad" I pointed out why they're badly designed. The fact that the studies are bought by people who would profit from the conclusions just means you need to look at them more closely, because it's very unlikely that they'd publish a study that doesn't make their product look good. I can find you studies funded by the National Confectioner's Association that claim candy isn't harmful

>>32150286

No problem, and sorry if I come off as a bit abrasive, I just get annoyed seeing people fall for the same things from the same websites that try to muddy the waters about this topic. People are too eager to believe what they want about diet and end up hearing all this propaganda without understanding the mainstream side of the argument. People need to be skeptical of good news when it comes to nutrition. If you want to believe it, chances are it's not true

>>32150423
But i still get some carbs in my keto diet. From my tdee (2900) i guess 70 gr-ish of carbs is okay?

Haven't found much to disagree with from OP, other than the notion that consuming more than 15 grams of protein at a time is a waste - implies digestion occurs instantly - and the use of ratios to calculate macronutrients instead of gram totals.

Is it necessary for all the vitamins to be listed under the nutritional label? Sometimes I see that I read that a specific food is supposed to be rich in a certain nutrient but it doesn't match up on the label. I bought fresh broccoli the other day, which is apparently supposed to be rich in Vitamin K but it wasn't listed on the label.

>>32150544
Also forgot to mention Vitamin B. Everyone says meat has a significant amount of it but it's never listed on the label.

man I don't give a fuck about the fundamentals, and even though that's an ignorant statement anyone who thinks eating pounds of bacon a day is healthy is a complete idiot.

during the rise and height of the popularity of keto diets on forums full of autistic fucks such as SA, I saw countless unhealthy people switch to this diet due to the fact that they could eat ground beef 24/7.

not once did I see anyone get actual positive fitness results, the fatties dripped off pounds and were left feeling like utter shit, then rebounded in weight when switching off the diet because theyre addicted to cookies. fit people trying the diet, getting through the lack of energy phase, etc. acclimatizing themselves to it, had shit skin and looked like death even when doing ok.

some idiot even killed his dog feeding it a ketogenic diet, further reinforcing it as a meme diet for complete idiots. please prove me wrong with some bodybuilders or fitness experts that dont look like shit on the diet, I havent researched it greatly and ive only been exposed to this shit on forums and imageboards due to in being fundamentally retarded.

im arguing the futility of switching to a diet that requires a massive and structured lifestyle change for people that consider an entire box of oreos a snack. keto works in weight loss, eating pure meat as 90% of your diet is disgusting.

idk what youre talking about re bodybuilding and anorexia, those things both exist.

I'm pre-diabetic, what food/supps should I be looking to buy?

>>32150726
The point is you're building up a strawman argument against a legitimate diet. Keto has worked for many people and despite the lifestyle change can be well worth it.

There is inherently nothing "unhealthy" about keto.

I agree that the lifestyle change is drastic and--as with any diet--many dieters relapse once they stop.

You must be a moron if you don't understand the correlation of saying keto is bad because people misapply it and saying caloric deficits are bad because some people misapply it (anorexia).

It is the other way around. In the USA at least, anyone can call themselves a nutritionist. Dietitians have to pass board exams, have a degree, and a clinical internship.

>>32147541
>Your body can absorb much more protein than that in that period of time. Outdated info.

It depends on your size, muscle mass, activity levels, water consumption, and many other factors. We use 12 to 15 as a control considering most, if not all, of my patients aren't muscular people.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3197704/
However, if you take a look at this study researchers found that on average, their subjects who had 90 grams of protein in their meal got exactly the same level of benefit as their subjects who ate 20-30 grams of protein.

>Still no strong link between cholesterol and cardiovascular disease.
See: http://www.rpi.edu/dept/bcbp/molbiochem/MBWeb/mb2/part1/lipoprot.htm

The low-density lipoproteins (bad cholesterol) transfer lipids (fats) through your blood stream into the cells of your body. Due to the fact that the proteoglycans in your endothelial cells easily retain oxidized forms, if you have more than 200 mg/dL of low-density lipoproteins in your blood, it can cause the endothelium to oxidize. More importantly, because they transfer lipids throughout the body, they can end up in arterial walls and cause blockage.

>Saturated fat is overhyped as the 'bad fat'
It's only considered "bad" because the negative effects it can have on your cardiovascular health. You have to maintain a "bad cholesterol" level of at least 80 mg/dL, otherwise you're at risk of shutting down your nervous system.

Also, dietary cholesterol isn't the same as trans/saturated fats.

If you can post proof saying otherwise, I'm all ears. This is what is accepted in the medical community. A physician will tell you the exact same thing.

There is more evidence showing that LDL transfers lipids into arterial walls than what shows it doesn't.

>>32147602
Egg yolks are fine. Dietary cholesterol isn't the same as eating saturated and trans fats. It hardly contributes to the blood cholesterol level, if at all.

>>32147725
Be careful going into hyperalimentation, because in a lot of cases you just end up gaining excess body fat. If you appropriately balance your diet and physical activity, you can avoid that. I'd need more info before I can suggest a ratio.

>>32147752
Balance is key. Getting sufficient nutrition from various food sources throughout the day is the best way to eat healthy. Stick with vegetables of varying colors and things like lean meats. Avoid eating an excess in calories, unless you're bulking properly.

You can bulk and eat healthy at the same time, though. That's certainly what I'd recommend as far as maintaining overall dietary health, at least.

Two scoops is approximately 60 grams, right? You're better off with just one. Unless you're seven feet tall+ and 360 lbs. at 8-10% bodyfat, you'll never absorb 60 grams of protein before your body digests it.

>>32147834
I work at a hospital. People with health problems related to diet are recommended to me from their physician, and based on their blood work, body fat content, activity level, and other factors like metabolic diseases, I make them a nutritional plan.

>>32147864
>I eat probably just under the amount of calories required for someone of my size.
>What I don't get is that I have this stomach chub that just won't budge

Lower your caloric intake and start counting your calories. You can't just guess if you're concerned about your weight. You can't compare your intake to your sister, either, since you likely have different basal metabolic rates.

Keep a log of everything you eat and add up the calories.

>>32153616
>you'll never absorb 60 grams of protein before your body digests it.

what about slower absorbing proteins like casein?

>>32147890
There was actually a link between insulin resistance and things like artherosclerosis and pulmonary embolism. The lack of appropriate insulin signaling, especially in peripheral tissues such as adipose cells, results in abnormal lipid metabolism that consistently produces a proatherogenic phenotype, causing FFA levels originating in lipid, endocytosis of lipoproteins rich in triglyceride, and de novo lipgenesis which makes it so the body can't suppress lipolysis.

Just asking you a more general question; what is your opinion on IF?

>>32146983
Under which conditions does adipose tissue store large amounts of glycogen, and what are the implications.

I recently read several studies that showed that adipose tissue has a huge variance in density and amount of fat stored, generally ranging from 50-90% of their weight, and well as other studies suggesting that a part of the obese population appear to be 'metabolically healthy' (other implications of obesity aside), while others, as well as many not obese people are at high risk. I feel like this might be related.

I need to lose weight pretty fast due to circumstances, so I take small amounts of dexedrine, how much damage and how fast will i do to my body by doing this?

Will batteries explode if punctured?

>>32147138
I was the same, cut out a lot of carbs from my diet and now my shits are as hard as rock

>>32154218
IF and CR can be successful if done properly, and even beneficial to health in some cases.

There aren't a lot of studies on it, so I don't prescribe it to patients, but there is more info on it being productive rather than detrimental, so I support it.

>>32154226
Reintroducing nourishment after a prolonged fast produces a marked transient spike in adipose glycogen, which dissipates when the lipids resynthesize.

>>32154261
There is no shortcut. It can have detrimental effects on your cardiovascular health and you can get reduced bloodflow to your arms and legs, on top of tachycardia. I would absolutely not recommend taking this anymore.

Poor phrasing; daily proteins are 230-250 grams.

I'm a 25 yo male, 175 lbs 6 feet. I've been lifting for about a year now, but never really paid attention to my diet. Being about time for a change, I started to eat as much protein and as little as carbs/sugars as possible. I am not counting my calories, but I've been eating with moderation. I also recently started doing some major compound excercises (before I mainly did seperate muscles).

All good and fine, however Ive been struck by a lot of fatigue. Trembling and weak on my legs. I have slept and eaten more then enough, yet I feel like I havent eaten/slept in 24 hours. Is this because of the compound excercises? Because of the cold turkey on sugars? Is there anything I can change, or is it just something I'll have to go through with?

Are BCAA useful for muscle gain or just for lean gain?

No OP but we need to know the cause of hepatic failure to figure this out, it may not be a nutrient problem. Is it primary or secondary? intracellular or extracellular? endocrine problems? Any concurrent disease?

>>32154722
because that guy probably has no idea what hes talking about and is mad because real science destroyed his bro science and the routine he has been following for liek 6 months has all gone to waste

I'm doing a cut right now. My friend has been trying to tell me that sugars are evil and I should eat high fat. I haven't seen any evidence suggesting that the ratio of fats to carbs really makes a difference though. If I'm eating adequate protein, does it really matter?

Dear tripfag. I have to shit 30 min to two hours after having caffeine, without fail and usually have to piss 15 minutes after. I almost never have caffeine. What is wrong with me? Do I have aids?

if you don't have caffeine then don't worry about it. Caffeine is a methylxanthine and a natural diuretic. For me too, it really gets my shits moving.

Careful with this advice.

Had knee pains, kept squatiing, even recorded my form and sent to a competitive powerlifter who said my form was decent. Went to a orthopedic surgeon, said my knee was fucked and I have a meniscus tear.

Surgery 2 weeks later and recovery took a month. I now also have arthritis in my knee for life because I've been walking around with a meniscus tear for years.

>>32146983
Are there any natural appetite suppressant supplements? Or foods that keep be full longer?

Do you have a source on the protein stuff? I usually have a huge protein shake for breakfast that covers half my needs and I need to know if I'm wasting it.

>>32154475
I was about to defend myself, instead I googled around a bit and have realised that I am probably consuming about 20% more protein than I actually need.

Thanks.

>>32155386
>I am probably consuming about 20% more protein than I actually need.

my thought is, better to have 20% too much than not enough.

>>32155415
Yeah, but those percent account for one protein shake. I'd much rather have an avocado or some more carbs while cutting, for satiety and whatnot.

>>half a pound of fruit
>Way too much.
Half a pound of fruit is way too much? Cmon now, even 250g grapes contains only about 40g of sugar (same amount as in one can of coke).

>>I don't eat vegetables.
>Start.
I asked what I am missing out on. If I can get the needed minerals/vitemins/whatever from other sources besides vegetables, I really wanna know which sources are available.
To be honest, I don't think not eating vegetables matters much, considering the rest of my diet. But I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

>>32152292
most keto/paleo guys still advocate eating lots of vegetables

Have there been any studies done on the subject of weight regain/body composition during the maintenance weeks following a cut?

I see a lot of people say eat high prot high carb low fat, but I fail to see the reason.
Of course I always assume maintenance calories here. Is there any benefit or disadvantage of doing either:
High prot, low carb, high fat (25/20/50)
High prot, high carb, low fat (30/50/20)
High prot, mod carb, mod fat (30/35/35)

do you choose dark chocolate as your staff pick?

>If you're gorging on fruit, you might as well be downing a couple of cans of mountain dew a day. Boy that's a lot of sugar.

How did you become a registered dietitian?

http://www.who.int/mediacentre/news/releases/2015/sugar-guideline/en/

>The WHO guideline does not refer to the sugars in fresh fruits and vegetables, and sugars naturally present in milk, because there is no reported evidence of adverse effects of consuming these sugars.

Anything negative about refined sugar does not apply to fruit. Fruit offers only benefits.

>>32152292
On keto you still consume about 40 grams of carbs a day. When I did keto I stayed in ketosis even at about 60-80 net grams of carbs a day. A medium peach is net 12 grams. A banana is net 24 grams. 10 strawberries is net 8 grams. Avocado, the patron fruit of keto, is fatty and nutritious and has 2 net carbs.

As part of a balanced keto diet, the carbs you consume should be from fresh fruits and vegetables. It's not a diet devoid of carbs, its a diet devoid of relatively empty carbs like bread and pasta.

Eating fat doesn't make you fat you fucking moron

Eating an excess in calories does

>>32158565

Specifically, an excess in fat calories.

>>32158544
*fat is directly deposited in adipose tissue immediately after consumption if not used as fuel

>>32158572
No, an excess in calories.

It doesn't matter what they come from.

If you manage to eat over your TDEE in spinach, you'll still get fat.

Only if it's GMO spinach modified to contain a lot of fat. Stay chunky, my lard-loving brother.

reading through this thread and it almost seems like nobody knows what theyre talking about

Nutrition science beyond identifying deficiencies is a load of fucking shit. You want to know how to be healthy? Eat lots of whole foods, exercise, lift heavy things, and don't be fat. Bam, I just did your whole job.
