fwiw. I'm just embarking upon this. long story but lost a bit of weight a few years ago after a bad accident, and as a result discovered other health issues including a leaky gut. I have recently repaired that leakiness and can now eat more without worrying about it. I have recently looked into a lot of this and chosen not to get into the protein shakes. I have bought one jar of rice protein, (least risk for digestive system),which I will use occasionally when away from home etc.

You will notice that all the websites about it tend to write endlessly about them. Ask yourself what they are not saying and it is the numbers as I have offered above. Always be suspicious of websites that go on and on about what should be simple stuff.

The average shake gives something like 300 extra calories. It is hardly special medicine when you compare it to an extra portion of chicken.

Any advocates of steaming vegetables, on here?

I'll be "getting in shape" one day, and diet is at least 50% of it. Steamed veg retains its qualities almost entirely does it not?

What does l - lycene do for body builders? They all seem to take it.
If you want egg protein, is the goodness still there after boiling it? It is easier to ditch the yoke this way.

Does horrible things to your body in the middle or later years..i mean how many old bodybuilders do you see..the stress on the heart is horrific.Though more to do with most guys (not all of course) choosing to take gear at some stage and usually to excess.

steaming veg retains around 90% of its calories, (useful as they don't often have many, excpet potatoes), and 90% of the nutrient values.

boiling is around 60-70% retention. One one hand it is not much in calorie terms, on the other hand you get much more nutrient from veg than you do from meat and grains.

also peeling potatoes and root veg is best done with a peeler as opposed to a knife. the reason being that a lot of the flavour is right under the skin so the closer you shave the more the flavour, and combined with steaming makes it much tastier imo.
