    Anyone wanna share a sample of a typical days food intake?

    I do research on Parkinson's Disease and our research has shown (in vitor and prelim in vivo) that oleic/linoleic/linolic acid (EFA's) upregulates dopamine in dopaminergic cells of the brain. I take 1-2 capsules everyday now. I figure it cant hurt and it may actually be good for me. Just...

    Which is the best body fat tester out there?

    Well, we recently had a thread going about this same topic. Do a search to find more answers. But, the Tanita was voted least accurate. The Omron is in the middle, and the caliper was even better. The combo of caliper (non-digital I think) and Omron/Tanita seemed to be the best as far as...

    Help for Low Protein Diet Info Please

    Hi, I just wanted to clarify that there are 20 amino acids (no more no less), none of which contain any sulfur. 12 of these amino acids are "essential" because your body can not make them, and you must injest them to get them. You can get most of these in plant based foods but in smaller...

    How low of bf is to low

    A BF% of 6% is required for healthy internal organs. When women allow their bodyfat percentage to drop below 12% (I believe is the number) you can experience amenorrhea (lack of menses), which isnt good. Whether Monica Brant has amenorrhea or not I dont know, but she might. She may also take...

    Canine Cancer Treatments - Has anyone dealt with?

    I have had a dog with cancer, but it was untreatable and we had to put him down before he was in too much pain. But it depends on what type of cancer the dog has. Mucousal cell cancer is a malignant form of melinoma and fairly untreatable. It develops in the mucosal membranes of the maxillary...

    A weather rant

    I may be the only one here who PREFERS cool (50's), cloudy and rainy days to hot, sunny, humid summer days. We leave Chicago and go to Victoria for the summers just to escape the incredible heat and humidity in Chicago. The past week in Chicago has been close to my ideal weather-cool, cloudy...
