Introduction.
To fuel your body with the correct nutrition we have to look at a couple points:
Mineral intake.
Vitamin Intake.
Carbohydrate/Protein/Fat intake.
To not be fatigued all day and also have excellent performance in daily activities and sports you need to pay attention to your bodies primary fuel source,the Carbohydrate.
3 kinds of Carbohydrates,all convert into glucose and fructose in the body.
Sucrose spikes your blood glucose levels the most,causing a short spike of energy,this is usually followed by a little fatigue so try spreading out the amount of sucrose you consume everyday.
Oligosaccharides are stereotyped as “fat making” and “unhealthy” because they spike your blood glucose up significantly and are mainly found in processed foods and if you do not use that energy you got from a oligosaccharide it will be stored as fat.
The most healthy carbohydrate out of the 3 in my opinion is the Polysaccharides.
In your body they’re broken down in glucose and a portion of it creates one of my favorite forms of glucose,glycogen.
Glycogen is stored in skeletal muscle,it’s a backup supply of the body in case you do not consume carbohydrates.
Glycogen is a compound of many glucose molecules,each gram of glycogen holds 4 grams of water.
For people out there looking to have fuller looking muscles,consume Polysaccharides from a rich source of it such as fruit.
1 gram of carbohydrates has 4 calories.
The Protein.
One thing I always tell people is that do not rely on protein from plant based sources or protein powder.
In order for protein to be useful you must consume all 12 amino acids that come from protein rich sources: Red Meat,Poultry,Fish,Eggs and dairy.
Your body consists of tons of proteins and many people tell me “If I’m not working out why should I consume protein?” It’s simply because protein is important for cell regeneration and lots of functions of the human body.
You should you consume at least 0.8 grams of protein per pound of your body weight,Ideally 1 gram per pound.
One gram of Protein consists of 4 calories.
Fat.
Fat’s main function is to support cell function.
It also important to have dietary fat because they help the absorption of other nutrients.
Fat is commonly stereotyped to make you fat,this statement is half true.
One gram of fat has 9 calories compared to the 4 calories of one gram of carbohydrate or one gram of protein.
But eating fat itself does not make you fat.
There’s many forms of fat,monosaturated,saturated and unsaturated.
Don’t get processed fats.
Mineral Intake.
Minerals/Electrolytes include:Calcium,Iron,Sodium,Phosphorus,Zinc,Iron,Selenium,Magnesium etc.
Do not ignore minerals just because they sound small.
Without any minerals our bodies cease to have any nerve function,cell function,muscle function and other aspects.
Also do not Ignore vitamins since being deficient in an important vitamin such as Vitamin C can cause scurvy.
Nurtient Split.
According to famous and knowledgeable body builder Mike Mentzer in the 1980s and other specialized nutritional scientists.
My best diet was this one.
No matter what your calorie intake is:
60% of your calories should be in the form of Carbohydrates.
25-30% protein.
15-10% fat.
This Ratio is my favorite,because he’s right.
This Ratio dosen’t have to be exact but it should be assumed to estimated.
25% of protein sound low,but if you get right you’ll be at least consuming 120 grams of protein.
How it could look like:
300 grams of Carbohydrates
125 grams of protein
70 grams of fat
Carbohydrates:Fruit,whole grain,honey.
Protein poultry,Red meat,Fish,Eggs and Dairy.
Fats:Same sources as protein.
Carnivore diet people will come and probably start ranting,my only words are that people who take the carnivore diet seriously are Idiots and listen to unlicensed “nutrition scientists” who are telling you shit.
Eating raw meat everyday is stupid,and if you don’t choose right you could end up with pinworms.
The human body is special amongst other mammals,we developed to cook food because it practical and accommodated to whatever food sources we find.
