A. You should start by talking to his various coaches and trainers and see what they recommend. If you can't get something concrete from them, it would probably be worth it for you to invest in a session or two with a nutritionist, one that's worked with children before. She can explain the plan to YOU in adult detail and to your son in ways he can understand. You'll probably learn something too.

A. It is called willpower, and if you wish to adhere to a diet, or anything else, you need to develop the ability to say no, and mean it.

Asked by gatekeepers_m - Wed Aug 29 21:24:56 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Diet is affected by what crops are available. Most cultures base their diet on some type of grain. Since corn is not natinve to the pacific, and wheat does not grow as well, the basic crop is rice which is abundant and grows well in that environment. But it is a very labor intensive crop and requires lots of people especially in a traditional setting. Because of this it is a social activity. Entire villages are needed to irrigate fields and plant the seedlings.

Asked by beaubrummie - Thu Jan 31 08:35:07 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. 70% of the chloesterol you have is made by the liver. Whatever amount of cholesterol you get from foods causes the liver to produce less. You do not have to do anything other than eating it, for it to go into the body. Soluble fiber absorbs it and takes it out of the body. Animal foods all have cholesterol but have no fiber. All plant foods have fiber but have no cholesterol.

A. I would limit yourself on the porridge and rice, those are just carbs and will add up fast.. To lose fat you need to eat lean meats (chicken, fish, turkey, lean beef) , eggs, low gi fruits (apples, bananas, pineapple, oranges), green veggies (broccoli, celery, green lettuce, spinach), only whole wheat breads (look on the package and see if the first ingredient is whole wheat flour, if it is it should be good unless it has high fructose corn syrup like Mrs Bairds does). Jillian Michaels from biggest loser has a great quote, "before you eat your food ask yourself, does it have a momma or did it come from the ground? If not don't eat it."

A. Edit: Short answer? Yes. The data out there notes that athletes have noticed quicker recovery times and more alertness when on a well-planned vegan diet. Also, there is plenty of research to suggest that there are large numbers of health risks inherent in a meat and dairy consuming diet that would obviously be avoided in a vegan diet. Also, the idea that protein only comes from soy and beans has long been debunked. Protein can be obtained through lentils, beans, nuts, seeds, fruits, vegetables, and soy products... all of which have shockingly less pesticide and chemical residues than dairy and meat products. In fact, if you focus on the information available on MyPyramid.gov (don't go to .org - it redirects you to a website touting… [cont.]

What diet and nutrition internet service will evaluate my calorie intake for free?
Q. I am successfully losing weight (18 pounds since mid- January!) by changing my eating habits, slowly, step-by-step, creating a healthier lifestyle. And though I'm not counting calories (and don't plan too!!), I would like to get an idea of my current calorie intake. I'm thinking that if I could find a service that would periodically accept a record of my food intake (maybe for a solid week each month or something), and evaluate it both for calorie intake and nutritional value, it would help. But, does such a service exist? (And, of course, if a service is also out there that will help me evaluate the level and amount of my work-outs that would be cool, too!!!)
