I love this forum! Great information from friendly people. Not sure if other members need help like me,but a Health & Fitness thread section would come in handy

thats actually a pretty good idea for a fitness thread, since there are several of members on this forum that are knowledgeable in this area. it would really help people who want to get into shape and just dont know where to start.

Breakfast is the most important meal. For breakfast, I eat within the first 30 minutes to jumpstart my metabolism. I eat an egg white omelet, some Kashi oats, and a lot of fruit to get hydrated. Oats and protein from egg is really good stuff. Eat something everything 3 hours to keep your metabolic rate up. If you're busy like me and dont always have breakfast made for you, try cereals like Mueslix or Great Grains cereals. They're full of oats, grains, nuts, raisins, dates, etc. Kashi cereal bars are a little pricey, but they've got some good stuff in them.

I agree that we could use a Health/Fitness thread! That would help me out a lot. There's a lot of knowledgeable people here on C5.

I think Muscle Milk has the best taste out there of all the protein shakes

And ranked #1 by Consumers Reports! for toxic chemicals that is....

Muscle Milk™ = up to 14.3 micrograms of Arsenic, 5.6 micrograms of Cadmium, and 0.7 micrograms of Mercury, and a whopping 13.5 micrograms of Lead!

I'll stick with getting my food from the grocery store and farmers markets. Some of these chemicals in a can from GNC seem to have some pretty nasty ingredients.

you mean food from the market like cantalope? Yeah, I've seen what that does to people on the news all over the US.

Muscle Milk deaths - 0
Cantalope deaths - 16 and counting.

yeah, just being a smarta$$, but there are chemicals in all the food we consume, even fresh produce sprayed with all types of pesticides/chemicals. no way you can pick out one item and say this is bad compared to that item. Eat smart, eat healthy and get some exercise.

I hope nobody suggested MuscleMilk to the OP

I used to drink the banana cream which tasted amazing, but once I found out how poor the ingredients were, i was off of that stuff so fast and onto 100% Gold Standard. Unless you eat completely organic, you'll be getting some type of chemicals/growth hormones/genetically modified food.

Body by Muscle Milk. You guys eat your stuff, I'll eat mine. I am sure our goals are different, but I enjoy what I do and the protein I drink (muscle Milk and Monster Milk). Can I see some pics of you guys eating all natural to see what I'm missing?

CAPT D · 10-28-2011, 01:54 AM

Nothing wrong with Muscle Milk, Ive used it before and got good results. Ive recently switched to switch to gold standard whey. I like that stuff much better.

DietCoke · 10-28-2011, 02:13 AM

Gold standard is delicious. Optimum's new platinum hydrobuilder line is even better, but it's pricy. I like muscle milk too, though it's very sweet flavored. I pick those up if I'm on the go. I'll take a photo of whats in my kitchen tomorrow

CAPT D · 10-28-2011, 10:57 AM

Ill have to try that when I get back in the states.

hrpiii · 10-29-2011, 06:10 AM

I was still waiting for some of the non-muscle milk'ers to post some pics. I need to see what I'm missing.
