Supplements - to Take or Not to Take?

[Eclipseguy]

Correct me if i have it wrong, but this "time-release" premise works the same way with "wheat" forms of bread/pasta/etc, eh? I've always assumed bread is bread, carbs are carbs, both refined and less processed carb sources roughly contain the same amount of calories, but because the less processed, rougher, wheat variety, they take longer to digest. (The time release benefit on top of the added fiber as a bonus)

 

Problem 1) Most "wheat" bread here in the Philippines is just white bread colored brown. Real wheat bread costs probably 4-5 times more than white bread...so if your "wheat" bread is cheap, it probably isn't wheat bread. Don't eat bread unless you know, for a fact, that it is actually wheat bread.

 

Problem 2) While this form of fiberous carb takes longer to digest, the period of digestion relative to red meat is relatively short since it is still a "quick to absorb" carbohydrate...while protein takes much longer to digest and absorb due to the chemical bonding of amino acids.

Go natural! try www.nutritiondata.com, to find out about the macronutrients of most foods. For me, I get my protein from prime cut steaks or salmon and sometime eggs(just eat one egg yolk though). For carb. eat lots of fruits and vegetables, its high in dietary fibre and make us feel full, no hunger pangs soon. As a suggestion, blender the fruits! (smoothies) so you won't have to eat it individually and use 2%MF or less milk. For bread you can use whole grain, 7 grains, or oat bran.

Very cheap....therefore, it's probably just colored white bread.

Took this with 3 eggs as part of my bulking merienda every now and then

[eskaparate]

^^ 3 whole eggs (with the yolk)? If i remember my homework, about a year ago i read about this "recent study" that a person can consume 1 whole egg a day and be fine. I dunno if some more recent study has reverted this

I think someone should shed a light to this....

 

What is the naked truth about eggs?

 

ako kasi ang alam ko masama ang egg yolk because of the cholesterol atsaka yung salmonella.....pero without giving out my reasons.....yung mga officemates ko (who happened to be food conscious also) give my a different look.....they tell me i should eat the yolks too coz eggs were meant to be eaten with it.......pero napanood ko naman si Ben Stiller last year publicly denouncing eggs saying it is the root of all diet evil.......

 

so which is which?

When I tested for my aviation physical back in 1999, I was 25 years old. I ate a diet with at least 6 whole eggs per day. This was in addition to peanuts and noodles on a daily basis. My HDL (good cholesterol) was above normal. My LDL (bad cholesterol) was below normal. Trigycerides were below normal as well.

 

Eggs are my favorite choice for dieting/cutting (whole eggs that is) since they supress your appetite due to their fat content as well as being a perfect protein source.

Very cheap....therefore, it's probably just colored white bread.

My guess based on real/organic/pure foods (since I don't buy bread) priced here is about 5-10 times what you'd pay for regular white bread. The reason I say this is because I nearly fell over recently when I bought organic pasta sauce at shopwise next to Eclipse...Php350 per jar!

 

I'm not sure about where you can buy real wheat bread, but I'm sure Santis Deli is a good bet.
