benwood, the irony is that i bet i spend less on food than average. i buy my fruit for $1 per pound and I only eat about 2100 calories a day - and that's enough to add about 8-10 lbs of muscle a year. at least at my current weight of 165 lbs. i'll have to add more as my lean muscle mass increases.

your body thrives on the right amount of carbs (brain function), the right amount of protein (lean body mass maintenance, activity level support) and heart healthy fats (supplies energy, helps moderate insulin response), so why not feed it what it need sin the approximate amount that it needs it?

as an aside, my friend told me my diet was "high protein." when he learned i eat 4 ozs of chicken (as an example protein) per meal, he laughed hard as he'd frequently eat 12 ozs or more of steak.

moderate low glycemic load, high nutritional value carbs, moderate lean protein, moderate primarily healthy fats = maximum wellness.
