muaythaiposer Posted August 4, 2002 Posted August 4, 2002 i dont' understand diets (not weight loss kind, and i'm not talking about supplements, just pure meal eating). why restrict yourself to primarily protein, or carbs, or onion soup? how is that really "good" for you? do you really feel better if you limit yourself to certain foods? would you run higher faster stronger? do you really gain more/lose more fat-muscle-water?? i'm just curious as to why certain diets "work", and what exactly are they working for? it's one to eat healthy, but i read so many posts about people going on 'just eat this type' diets, when with training, you jsut need to increase portions. fact is for protein diets, not only do average americans already have over the RDA of protein (enough even for a training athlete), but it can liver or kidney damage! maybe those who understand can offeer me some insight.
shaolinprincess Posted August 5, 2002 Posted August 5, 2002 This "diet" I have done doesn't restrain me to carbs, protien, and veggies, but it is the priority food that this diet wants you to eat. Its just the eatiing healthy and in proper proportions. It doesn't stop me from eating fruits, it just doesn't want me too cause of the fructose in the sugar... It's what you put into it...1st kyu-Okinawa Shorin Ryu Matsumura Seito Federation
