I need a GOOD nutrition book!!

[KISAWA]

If I need to buy only ONE book which one would that be?

 

[diamonddiceclay]

the metabolic diet by dipasquale

 

[FitnessFrk]

for weight trainers: Dr. Jeanne Brand-Miller (Australia) or Dr. Tom Woliver (Canada) - they are the world's leading authorities....

 

[KISAWA]

Do they contain food values. I mean how much carbs and fat and fiber etc?
Because that's what I need, not a new diet!!
I'm done with diet!!

 

[diamonddiceclay]

dipasquale's book lists calories,protein,carbs for all foods

speaking of nutrition books. I'm doing some research for a paper, and i came across a book called "The Nautilus Bodybuiilding Book." Holy shit have we come a long way since this pile of garbage was writen.

here is an example of the horrible advice given to people in 1982

"the truth is this: nutritoin accounts for less than 5% of the muscle building process."

Ok ok this one is even better

This guys says that protein is not a contributing factor for an athlete (bodybuilder). Dr. Dipshit says we need only .36g of protein per 1lb of body weight. So a 200lb person would only need 72g of protein to gain muscle.

ok ok. ask me a training or nutrition question, and i'll find the answer from this book. hahaha

The scariest thing is that there are still people out there making those same recommendations.....

Thank you!! I've got this one alreadyand this is not what I'm looking for.
I saw "The nutrition almanac" on Amazon, any feedback on this one?

I've seen Nutrition Almanac also.. But I havent heard, any one who uses it yet.. I think that bitch is really expenisive though.

peace

 

[rgosit]

i also have power eating.. but the meals it recomends would make me fat im sure..

it recomends 180 pound athlete to eat like 800 grams of carbs and liek 130 protein...
seemed high to me im gonna look at it now though..
