DIET is a great topic, I think we should have a section for it.
I recently learned about a diet for health.
The theme is to not mix food groups. So if you eat ANIMAL PROTEIN you never eat them with CARBS.
You may eat them with VEGGIES.
CARBS may also be eaten with VEGGIES but not with ANIMAL PROTEIN.
FRUITS only alone.
NUTS only alone.
Also never drink until 30min after eating.
Then offcourse there are some things you do not eat.
This diet is said to improve absorbtion of nutrients & be very healthy for you.
peace

I switched protein drinks and now drink Cytosports "Muscle Milk." 18 gms of fat and a mixture of some high tech protein species that keep your appetite satisfied if your cutting carbs and looking to burn fat.

Good post guys. Diet is the biggest nemesis I have when it comes to being healthy. Going to the gym is the easy part, trying to eat healthy is the daily struggle for me. I'm constantly on the run and sometimes it's just easier to grab something quick instead of something healthy.
