Intermittent fasting diet for fat loss, muscle gain and health. It's been a good while since I last wrote about intermittent fasting. I guess largely because there's only so much to say about the topic and because I feel like I've said most of it. Unless you're going to make inferences based on animal studies, there's only so much you can extrapolate from the human experience and write about. Another part of it is that I've lost interest. Once your understanding of nutrition is complete, more or less, you reach a point of radically diminishing returns - at this point, expanding your knowledge further in this realm, won't make an iota of difference for your level of fitness. It's much more fruitful to improve your training regimen and understanding thereof. A rich body of research on the topic has been published since then. The ongoing interest in IF is not surprising, given its mystique that’s wrapped in ancient spiritual origins, all the way to its modern applications to clinical and aesthetic goals. The aim of this article is to bring the reader up- to- date on the scientific findings, with a particular focus on comparing IF regimes with conventional/linear dieting. After all, the question is not whether IF works – it obviously does, as does any mode of caloric restriction. The question is whether it works better than conventional dieting for improving body composition, and if so, to which contexts can we apply it. Article continues.. Importantly, they compared the effects of intermittent energy restriction (IER) to continuous energy restriction (CER) on bodyweight, body composition, and other clinical parameters. This article explains in simple terms how to Lose Weight With The 16 8 Diet. No magic, no tricks, just a simple intermittent fasting system that works. Fasting and feasting keeps us lean largely because it forces the body to metabolize fat for energy more efficiently. And by limiting spikes in blood sugar because. Medieval cuisine includes the foods, eating habits, and cooking methods of various European cultures during the Middle Ages, a period roughly dating from the 5th to. The breakfast for Day 7 of the Seven Day Menu Plan for a 1300 Calorie Diet consists of scrambled eggs and berries followed by a banana for a. Intermittent Fasting 101: How to Drop Fat and Build Muscle Fast. Intermittent fasting diet for fat loss, muscle gain and health. Articles, research, diet advice, and free guides from IF-expert, Martin Berkhan. The plan is simple: On Sunday evening after dinner I stop eating and I close my computer (if I. On Monday, I go about my day. Their review included 4. IER with a CER condition. PROS OF THE VEGAN DIET. Thanks to a heavy dose of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes the vegan diet is high in antioxidants, potassium, and satiating fiber. Why I Favor Intermittent Fasting Over Calorie Restriction. Intermittent fasting also has a number of added benefits over strict calorie restriction. They found that overall, the two diet types resulted in “apparently equivalent outcomes” in terms of bodyweight reduction and body composition change. In addition, neither IER or CER was superior to the other at improving glucose control/insulin sensitivity. No different effects on thyroid, cortisol, and sex hormones were seen between IER and CER, though the authors concede that there’s insufficient research comparing neuroendocrine effects of the two diet types to draw definitive conclusions in this area. Death by Fiber: Why a High Fiber Diet is Killing You ( And Why a LOW Fiber Diet Will Cure Constipation & IBS). Interestingly, IER was superior at suppressing hunger. The authors speculated that this might be attributable to ketone production in the fasting phases. However, this effect was somewhat immaterial since it failed to translate into superior improvements in body composition or greater weight loss. MB: Well, that's not quite true. These studies didn't have a suitable control group, as the participants served as their own controls. Thus, you can't say that it didn't translate into . That's the problem with these systematic reviews Like it says in the paper. Only 1. 2 of the 4. IER with CER: the lack of direct comparison makes it difficult to determine whether IER is superior to CER, or for whom. Limitations of the review included the standard ones – relatively small sample sizes, relatively short trial durations, and heterogeneous study designs making comparisons outside of the same study difficult. An acknowledged limitation worth highlighting was that 1. Varady et al, University of Illinois at Chicago). Ideally, a more diversified and less concentrated set of labs is less likely to repeat the same errors or preserve the same biases. Speaking of the potential for bias, Varady has published a lay- directed book titled, The Every- Other- Day Diet (1. I’m not claiming that Varady is destined to make sure her ADF study results will always square up with her book, but it’s one of the potential caveats nevertheless. I would add to these limitations that there’s a severe lack of IER (and IER vs CER) studies that include a structured training component. MB: I agree wholeheartedly. I'm glad Alan brought this up. The opportunities for fuckery in the scientific literature are endless. Usually, industry is the culprit - you know, studies praising the benefits of snacks or breakfast (sponsored by Kellogg's or General Mills) or studies on the tremendous muscle- building effects of protein powders (sponsored by supplement companies) and the like. These studies can't fully be trusted and needs to be scrutinised more than the rest. They're suspect, because their funding comes from a source that would benefit from a positive result, and the results should always be taken with a grain of salt. And very often, almost always in fact, these studies arrive at a positive result. They seemed more like marketing than science. That's more than 9. Here's how to stop them. If you want to read more about this topic as it pertains to nutritional science, check out Marion Nestle and her writings. She's quite brilliant. Why Calories Count by Marion Nestle. I found this book in a large box of bullshit that I ordered from Amazon two years ago. It was the only thing worth scavenging and I intend to read it after I'm done with a few horror novels. I figure that I'd be properly warmed up by then. A book about food politics and marketing shenanigans can get quite dark and depressing no doubt. But food companies are as unlikely to fund research on intermittent fasting, as Coca Cola is unlikely to fund research on ketogenic diets. What Alan brings up is the potential for bias on the researcher's part, Krista Varady to be specific. Aside from researching intermittent fasting, she is also involved in selling books, namely books based off of the research she is doing. While I haven't read The Every- Other- Day Diet, but I have mixed feelings about Krista Varady. She does try a bit too hard for my liking. I covered her work* before in . Note that I'm wrongfully referring to Varady as . In short, she published a pretty shitty review of the subject, but then again, there weren't that many data points around in 2. Five years later, it's gotten a little better, but there's still not enough good data around to draw any definitive conclusions - and like Alan says, a lot of that data comes from the same lab (Varady's). It's worth mentioning that Varady appeared in a laughable infomercial documentary called . In it, Michael Mosley - the show host and soon- to- be- author, interviews researchers working in the field of intermittent fasting and Varady is one of them. After rewatching the segment she appeared in, I found her to be matter of fact and professional even though she dutifully suffered through all the TV show gimmicks thrown at her - they gorged on hamburgers and fries to show that you could stuff your face and still lose weight on ADF, for example. By the way, this . Seems like there was some kind of falling out between Varady and Mosley after that. Don't waste your money. If you want a book on intermittent fasting, pick up Eat Stop Eat. Now, speaking of Varady, there's nothing wrong with pushing your agenda, but don't shove it down peoples throats by publishing bad research and doing shady shit like failing to disclose your conflicts of interest, because that makes you suspect in my eyes. That said, there's nothing fishy about her recent work, as far as I can tell. It's entirely possible that Varady and her colleagues got together one night and decided amongst themselves to doctor the results, but I find that very unlikely. It's kind of spooky, but a client just sent me this two minutes ago. I'm mentioned on the same page as Mosley and Varady, and I'm reading it just as I finish up this paragraph. I believe he was reading a book by his doctor, Robin Willcourt. I'll have to ask about the title, so I'll add it here later for those interested. Update: Name of the book is Chasing Antelopes: Why All This Caused All That. When fuckery strikes in science, it's usually a lot more subtle and sinister. I would know, because years ago, I approached Alan with this subject. See, I had uncovered some sophisticated tampering with the results of a study that received a lot of spin on social media and the mainstream news. I was slightly distressed over the fact that he had missed it - the studies appeared in the AARR, not only once, but twice - and presented my findings. I needed a second opinion, because maybe I was making a hen out of a feather. Nope. Alan agreed, it was some shady shit. In fact, it was a case study in deceit. Career- ending, if you ask me. But to this day, no one has debunked the findings, and the researcher is still active; polluting the journals with more bullshit for every new study that gets published. Who knows, maybe one day I'll put an end to it. The key point of all this, is that science can't be trusted for shit, unless you do your due diligence and read the fine print. But in this particular case, concerning Krista Varady, I'm not worried. Article continues below.. This limitation also plagues the body of research comparing various within- day meal frequencies. Readers familiar with my work know that Brad Schoenfeld, James Krieger, and I did a meta- analysis on the effect of meal frequency on body composition, and found that higher meal frequencies were associated with greater losses of fat mass and greater retention of lean mass (2. However, sensitivity analysis revealed that the removal of a single study (2. It’s worth noting that the studies in our analysis (and in this entire body of literature) lacked sufficient protein. An exception was Arciero et al (2. Furthermore, 6 meals per day increased lean mass despite hypocaloric conditions. MB: Sure thing. Something like that only happens in a study sponsored by EAS, Alan. Article continues below.. However, the question of muscle gain via IF remains unanswered since the investigative focus of IF research has been on weight/fat loss and accompanying clinical effects. No IF studies in the current literature have focused on the goal of gains in muscle size and/or strength. As such, No IF studies to- date (at least none that have passed peer review) have included a structured, progressive resistance training program. This is untreaded ground fresh for the taking by researchers with the desire to do so. Here's a brief primer. The basics. In- depth coverage of my approach, and the benefits of intermittent fasting, can be read about here. A much shorter summary can be found here. Fasting and feeding. My general position on the fasted phase is that it should last through the night and during the morning hours. Ideally the fast should then be broken at noon or shortly thereafter if you arise at 6- 7 AM like most people. Afternoons and evenings are usually spent in the fed state. However, the fast could also also be broken later in the day depending on your personal preferences and daily routine. I personally tend to break the fast as late as 4- 6 PM since I work well into the night and rise later than most people with normal jobs. The recommendation for fasting through the earlier part of the day, as opposed to the latter part of the day, is for behavioral and social reasons. Most people simply find it easier to fast after awakening and prefer going to bed satiated. Afternoons and evenings are times to unwind and eat. For adherence reasons during dieting, I've also found that placing the feeding phase later in the day is ideal for most people. The protocols. I work with four different protocols depending on when my clients train. Depending on setup, one, two, or three meals are eaten in the post- workout period. Fasted training. Training is initiated on an empty stomach and after ingestion of 1. BCAA or similar amino acid mixture. Technically, training is not completely fasted - that would be detrimental. The pre- workout protein intake, with its stimulatory effect on protein synthesis and metabolism, is a crucial compromise to optimize results. The 8- hour feeding phase starts with the post- workout meal. Sample setup. 11. AM or 5- 1. 5 minutes pre- workout: 1. BCAA1. 2- 1 PM: Training. PM: Post- workout meal (largest meal of the day). PM: Second meal. 9 PM: Last meal before the fast. Calories and carbs are tapered down throughout the day in the example above. Early morning fasted training. Here's a sample setup for a client that trains early in the morning and prefers the feeding phase at noon or later. Read this for details regarding this protocol. AM: 5- 1. 5 minutes pre- workout: 1. BCAA. 6- 7 AM: Training. AM: 1. 0 g BCAA. 1. AM: 1. 0 g BCAA1. PM: The . Start of the 8 hour feeding- window. PM: Last meal before the fast. For the sake of conveniency, I recommend getting BCAA in the form of powder and not tabs. Simply mix 3. 0 g of BCAA powder in a shake and drink one third of it every other hour starting 5- 1. Tabs are cheaper, but much more of a hassle (you're going to have to pop a lot of tabs). Check my supplements guide for specific brand recommendations. One pre- workout meal. This is the most common setup for my younger clients that are still in college or have flexible working hours. Sample setup. 12- 1 PM or around lunch/noon: Pre- workout meal. Approximately 2. 0- 2. PM: Training should happen a few hours after the pre- workout meal. PM: Post- workout meal (largest meal). PM: Last meal before the fast. Two pre- workout meals. This is the usual protocol for people with normal working hours. Sample setup. 12- 1 PM or around lunch/noon: Meal one. Approximately 2. 0- 2. PM: Pre- workout meal. Roughly equal to the first meal. PM: Post- workout meal (largest meal). Key points* No calories are to be ingested during the fasted phase, though coffee, calorie free sweeteners, diet soda and sugar free gum are ok (even though they might contain trace amount of calories). A tiny splash of milk in your coffee won’t affect anything either (. Neither will sugar free gum in moderation (~2. The fast is the perfect time to be productive and get things done. Don’t sit around, get bored and brood about food.* Meal frequency during the feeding phase is irrelevant. However, most people, including me, prefer three meals.* The majority of your daily calorie intake is consumed in the post- workout period. Depending on setup, this means that approximately 9. The feeding window should be kept somewhat constant due to the hormonal entrainment of meal patterns. We tend to get hungry when we're used to eating and maintaining a regular pattern makes diet adherence easier. If you're used to breaking the fast at 1. PM and ending it at 8- 1. PM, then try to maintain that pattern every day.* On rest days, meal one should ideally be the largest meal, as opposed to training days where the post- workout meal is the largest meal. A good rule of thumb is to make meal one on rest days at least 3. This meal should be very high in protein; some of my clients consume more than 1. When working with clients I am always open to compromising on the above rule. If your preference is to eat a larger meal in the evening instead of noon, or whenever you break the fast, it's no great harm. Some people prefer to save the largest meal on rest days for dinner with their family instead of having a large lunch and that's fine by me if it makes them enjoy and adhere to their diet better.* Macronutrients and calorie intakes are always cycled through the week. The specifics depends on the client's ultimate goal: fat loss, muscle gain or bodyrecomposition. The details will be revealed in the book. Generally speaking, carbs and total calorie intake is highest on training days. On rest days, carbs are lower and fat is higher. Protein is kept high on all days.* Here are the supplements I recommend everyone to take on a daily basis: a multivitamin, fish oil, vitamin D and extra calcium (unless dairy is consumed on a regular and daily basis).* For fasted training, BCAA or an essential amino acid mixture is highly recommended. However, if this feels like too much micromanaging or simply questionable from an economic standpoint, you could also make due with some whey protein. The importance of protein intake prior to fasted training is outlined in this and this post.* People sometimes ask me which protocol is best. I tend to look at things from a behavioral perspective first and foremost, so my reply to that is to choose the protocol best suited to your daily routine and training preferences. When dealing with clients I make the choice for them. If you work a 9- 5 job and your only option is to train after work, training fasted is generally a bad idea and I always choose the one or two meals pre- workout protocol.* Even from a physiological perspective, each protocol has it's own strengths and theoretical benefits. This deserves an article on it's own. I have some interesting and compelling arguments that I think are very unique. Below I'll list some other resources that I think will give you an idea of what Leangains is all about. Diet methodology. Calories, foods and macronutrient choices play an important role in the optimal diet. The following articles will give you an insight into my philosophy on this topic. Scorch Through Your Fat Loss Plateau. Maintaining Low Body Fat. Intermittent Fasting, Set- Point and Leptin. Diet psychology. The right mental attitude is a crucial factor for a successful diet and training routine. This is an area that is all too often overlooked. I've explored this subject through many different perspectives. The Secret Benefit of Being Lean. The Marshmallow Test. How to Look Awesome Every Day. How People Fail Their New Year's Resolutions Regarding comments. Commentators often ask me if this or that is fine or how they should optimize things. I simply don't have time or energy for that any longer. Understand that a lot of factors need to be taken into consideration when determining calorie intake and macronutrient cycling; body weight, body fat, activity level, training routine, gender, insulin sensitivity and so forth. That's why I have clients - optimizing a diet plan requires time and reflection, and being a perfectionist by nature I simply can't . Intermittent Fasting and the Meal Frequency Fallacy. Intermittent fasting, compressed eating windows, insulin hacking, and calorie cycling. Just because fitness magazines, TV, and doctors say that constantly shoveling food down your gullet . Your brain has evolved to prepare for times of famine so that, when you ingest food, your body is ready to feast. When you. But when you simply have dedicated hours of the day when you eat and others that you don. For many decades, most believed that it was necessary to . Recent science has shown us, however, that you can actually trim your waistline, improve your biomarkers of health, and increase your longevity without the pain, suffering, and hunger that comes along with restriction. Intermittent Fasting works, too. When you look to our ancestorsas a guide for how we should live, going without food for some hours of the day starts to make sense. Our ancestors hunted and gathered, often going many hours or even days in between meals. We’re meant to withstand at least a portion of our day without food.? The feast. A few nights ago, our feast included chipotle lime chicken, a fresh salad from the farmer. Dessert included homemade peanut butter carob brownies, dark chocolate with figs, and French cabernet to round out the evening. It was epic. The craziest part? I had a photo shoot the next day and I didn’t look like a fatty. If you could put all the benefits of intermittent fasting into a pill, one lucky pharmaceutical company would make billions. But the truth is that you don. Eating more often trains your body to be hungry. How often have you stared at the clock eager for the next mealtime? Gluten Free Skillet Pizza. Recipe coming soon. Fasting and feasting keeps us lean largely because it forces the body to metabolize fat for energy more efficiently. And by limiting spikes in blood sugar because there’s no incoming food to digest, your insulin sensitivity can improve dramatically. Another benefit of fasting and feasting: by eating less often, it gives the opportunity for our bodies to repair themselves, without being distracted by needing to digest food. The result is less inflammation, more muscle growth, and of course, more fat mobilization. Studies support that fasting then feasting, or having less frequent meals, doesn’t decrease your metabolism. And eating every few hours, including breakfast, doesn’t increase your metabolism, either. Hunter- gatherer meal patterns, with large dinners and little to eat during the day, seem more natural. That’s why skipping breakfast often comes so easily. I tend not to get hungry until I start eating. They’ve found that cortisol is the main culprit. It’s highest in the morning as a normal process of getting you to wake up and prepare you for the day ahead. Often called “circadian cortisol,” the urge to eat in the morning can actually be a response to cortisol flooding our system and not because we are actually hungry. Simply, when you have high levels of cortisol and eat, you’re likely to experience an insulin spike and a decrease in insulin sensitivity. That’s why you might be starving a mere 1- 2 hours after breakfast. And if you’re worried about wasting away if you don’t suck down a protein shake every 2 hours, fasting won’t make your muscles fall off.

Unfortunately, I don't really know how to tell what amino acids (or how much of them) I get from what I eat. Since food labels don't give us this information, is there another way to find out? First you need to write down everything you eat. Then your choices are to either send your food records to a registered dietitian who could analyze the amino acid content in the foods you eat or find a nutrition software package that has amino acid content of foods in their database. A dietitian's report could include the levels of 9 essential amino acids in your foods including histidine, which is essential only for children. Their report also graphs your food plus any amino acid supplements you may take so you can see the combined effect. A dietitian could also include the amounts of non- essential amino acids you eat. Remember that non- essential amino acids are still necessary to the body, but that your body can manufacture non- essential amino acids from essential amino acids. Your other choice is a nutrition software package. Look for software that contains a database of amino acid content in food. There are very few nutrition software packages that contain amino acid food values though. Those that do are designed for nutrition professionals and are usually not available to consumers. Some references are saying that diets rich in animal proteins stimulate the release of parathyroid hormone and promote excessive elimination of calcium in the urine, which encourages bone resorption. The reference pointed out that the average American routinely eats four times more protein than that in their daily meals. According to that, then, the average American actually consumes eight times more protein per day than any person in the study needed to sustain good health. The link between excessive protein and calcium depletion was said to be so strong that taking supplemental calcium does NOT stem the daily calcium deficit - - it is only slowed a trifle. But it went on to say that reducing protein intake to a level near the RDA had a profound positive effect. It left the body with a daily net influx of calcium, even among older women who were not taking calcium supplements. Can you provide authoritative references to evidence that confirms or refutes this? BTW, the average American only eats 1. NHanes III 1. 99. US citizens by the government (Center for Disease Control). The RDA for protein is 6. Therefore most American males eat 1. RDA for protein and American females 1. Since nutrition surveys blend male and female data, these numbers may be reversed as males do tend to eat more protein than females. By your sources, people would be eating over 2. RDA of protein for females of 5. If this much protein were from lean meat sources, it would equate to an additional 1. Based on the most resent government nutrition surveys, I don't think Americans eat that much nor do they only eat meat, though I do agree that they do eat too much protein. Sorry, I cannot provide you with specific references as my nutrition information accumulates from many sources, but you can do your own research by doing a Medline (published medical research) search on- line.

I've read the Q and A on milk, eggs and protein and still have a question. First is milk protein a complete protein? Do I need to compliment milk protein and egg whites to make a complete protein? Is the powdered egg white considered . Please e- mail me with a response. Thank you. Milk is a complete protein in that it has all 8 essential amino acids. Egg whites are a complete protein as well. No, you don't need to combine milk and eggs. The powdered egg whites have to be heat treated to be dried and therefore are not raw nor will they destroy biotin. Your attempts to give sound advice on sports nutrition are appreciated. However, it seems inappropriate that you give advice on matters, which are obviously outside the realm of your experience and expertise. To suggest that a male weight lifter needs only . That advice came from people who had the credentials to call themselves experts, also. Questions: 1) What modern research can you point to that says protein needs don't increase with heavy muscle tissue breakdown? Modern research on sports nutrition I've seen indicates time and again that protein needs increase, often drastically, in weight training subjects. Otherwise, much less than optimal benefit is derived from that exercise, the body simply is not afforded the opportunity to rebuild itself quickly and adequately. As opposed to quantity, what is the quality of the protein ingested? Incomplete proteins may be of little or no benefit to the athlete, as you are probably well aware, but your readers may not be. Regarding the specific quantity of 6. Does the weight lifter weigh 1. To suggest so specific a number for ALL males, regardless of their biochemical individuality and weight variation and intensity of workout is beyond my comprehension.

Uber, and another $4. Manhattan’s real estate developers. I read everything I could about maximizing my income, and was able to achieve a $4. I first started. An annualized income of $8. Six Figure Club. So, as any lazy. Then, I got my latest weekly earnings update. See below. I made $4. NET of Uber fees after only driving for 3. That comes out to a whopping $1. Maybe the three guys making $1. Uber were telling the truth. After all, driving was their full- time job, while driving for me is more about investigative journalism and story- telling. With this latest income report, I was reminded about the power of leverage. HOW I MADE OVER $1. AN HOUR DRIVING FOR UBERThere are two ways any enterprising individual should think about ways to make money. The first way is to think about the total amount of money you can earn in a year, since the yearly salary is the standard way to. There’s a natural tendency for the majority to slack off or do the minimum over time since you’re going to get paid a set rate, no matter how little you work. Gotta love it! The second way to think about earning money is through the hourly rate. If you think this way, you’ve got the independent contractor mentality. I think in this way because I decided to hit the eject button from Corporate America back in 2. I only want to actively work about 2. I can spend time. Therefore, my goal is to maximize my income on those 2. Take a look at the chart below that breaks down my $4. Uber paycheck for the week to understand how $1.

Every new driver earns a bonus after giving a certain number of rides. This $3. 00 Other income on this latest income statement is my bonus income for referring a San Francisco driver who successfully completed his 2. The new driver apparently found me from one of my previous articles on Financial Samurai and decided to sign up and give Uber driving a whirl. Not only did I get the $3. It’s not worth driving full- time anymore. The reason is because the hourly gross wage has drastically declined due to a large increase in drivers now in 2. The great thing about this $3. I had no idea it was coming. It was completely out of the blue, like seeing an Amazon gift box from a stranger at my. Furthermore, it’s not like I’ve written a ton of articles about my Uber experience either. I only have two dedicated articles out of 1,1. Financial Samurai that revolves around my Uber experience. Out of the $4. 14. As someone who is trying to maximize his. Getting a 9- to- 5 job is not the only way to make six figures a year. Plenty of independent contractors also make six figures because they’ve learned how to maximize their time and leverage existing assets (a car, a second car, relationships, etc.).

These fresh produce should contain no form of starch, potassium and starchy carbohydrates, such as bananas. This is because on the first day of this diet plan, the body is subject to detoxification. Only fruits and water can be consumed. Persons who are planning to start the GM diet may consume starchy foods such as potatoes, oats and bananas the day before their targeted week, so that they would be packed with enough energy to last for the next morning. They should also practice drinking lots of water, so that they will not be dehydrated in the succeeding days. Aside from preparing the body for the diet plan, physical activities should also be set into rather lighter tasks. Through exercise, the body system becomes resilient to the side effects of GM diet, and rather gives way for the detoxification and weight reduction results.

The first important meal of the day in a GM diet regimen is breakfast. Followers may observe a full breakfast consisting mainly of fruits such as melons and papaya together with 1- 2 glasses of water. These fruits easily make the stomach full, and at the same time the sweet tooth satisfied, thus craving for more tempting meals such as pizza and pasta can be avoided. Consuming a bowl of apples or two cups of watermelons can already make the stomach full. Other fruits such as kiwi and mangoes can as well be served.

I thought that my low intake of saturated fat would protect me from heart disease and that my low intake of animal protein and high intake of soy isoflavones would protect me from tooth decay and bone loss. Instead, over the next two years my health took a series of blows: my digestion fell apart; fatigue set in; anxiety took hold; and tooth decay overran my entire mouth. I was a mess, and I didn. I had always associated nutrition with fruits and vegetables. Meat was for protein; milk for calcium; but vitamins were something you got from plant products. Yet the groups that Price studied had a very different idea of nutrition. They valued foods like liver, shellfish and deeply colored butter for their life- promoting qualities. Price used cod liver oil, butter oil and organ meats to supply the fat- soluble vitamins to his patients. These were mostly foods I had never eaten, and the foods with only small amounts of important animal- based nutrients. A strictly vegetarian diet, however, clearly lacks nutritional qualities that an omnivorous diet possesses. If the people most sensitive to deficiencies of these nutrients suffer the types of problems that I did, those who are less sensitive and not suffering obvious problems may nevertheless fail to achieve optimal health without optimal levels of nutrients from animal sources. This article will discuss those nutrients, their functions and their sources, starting at the beginning of the alphabet with vitamin A. Vitamin AThe roles of vitamin A in vision, growth, immunity, reproduction and the differentiation of cells and tissues are well known. Vitamin A also plays a number of lesser known functions: it is a powerful antioxidant in cell membranes,2,3,4 protects against environmental toxins,5 contributes to the regulation of bone growth,6 protects against asthma and allergies,7,8 prevents the formation of kidney stones,9 and protects against fatty liver disease. One of the discoverers of vitamin A, Elmer Verner Mc. Collum, initially attributed the ability of cod liver oil to treat both the eye disease xerophthalmia and the bone disease rickets to its content of this vitamin. Eventually, researchers recognized vitamins A and D as two different vitamins because heating cod liver oil destroyed its ability to cure xerophthalmia but not its ability to cure rickets. Although they would determine over time the fact that the vitamin D content of butter depends on the season and the condition of the cows producing it, the observation that both cod liver oil and butter could cure xerophthalmia but only cod liver oil could cure rickets also contributed to the differentiation of vitamins A and D. Vitamin A, then, was originally discovered because of the life- promoting properties of three animal fats. Research conducted soon after, however, showed that the yellow lipid fraction extracted from yellow- orange vegetables possessed the same activity. These vegetables contain betacarotene and other carotenoids that humans and animals can convert into retinol, the functional form of vitamin A found in animal products. In 1. 94. 9, Hume and Krebs induced vitamin A deficiency in three human subjects; they treated one with retinol and treated the other two with a concentrated dose of beta- carotene dissolved in oil. They concluded that 3. A similar experiment conducted in 1. In 1. 96. 7, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and World Health Organization (WHO) released a joint recommendation stipulating that six units of beta- carotene and twelve units of other carotenoids with vitamin A activity should be considered equivalent to one unit of retinol, a recommendation they renewed unchanged in 1. Oomen, the prominent researcher who first highlighted the problem of vitamin A deficiency in the Third World, to write, . In 1. 99. 4, Suharno and others observed that pregnant Indonesian women were consuming enough carotenes to yield three times the recommended amount of vitamin A based on the WHO. Subsequent intervention studies aimed at Indonesian school children and breastfeeding women in Vietnam found that the conversion factor for carotenes to vitamin A in vegetables was 2. Institute of Medicine (IOM) established a conversion factor of 1. A activity, and two for beta- carotene dissolved in oil. West and others criticized the selective use of studies employed by the IOM, and suggested that beta- carotene from fruits and vegetables in a mixed diet has a conversion factor closer to 2. In 2. 00. 3, Tang and colleagues showed that even the efficiency of beta- carotene dissolved in oil had been grossly overestimated. The researchers gave a concentrated dose of radio- labeled beta- carotene dissolved in oil to 2. A both in the intestine and after intestinal absorption. The mean total conversion rate for the oil- soluble carotene in this experiment was 9. Figure 1 compares the vegetables richest in carotenes to the animal foods richest in vitamin A. Eating liver once a week or taking a half teaspoon of high- vitamin cod liver oil per day provides the RDA of 3,0. IU. To obtain the same amount with plant foods, one would have to consume two cups of carrots, one cup of sweet potatoes, or two cups of cooked kale every day. The presumed conversion rate, however, is just an average. People who convert carotenes poorly may suffer from vitamin A deficiency even if they are careful to eat large amounts of carotene- rich foods every day. Many traditional diets contained much more vitamin A than our government recommends. In 1. 95. 3, for example, Greenland Inuit subsisting on traditional foods consumed an average of 3. IU per day. 1. 5 Since researchers are still discovering new roles for vitamin A and still poorly understand many of those already discovered, it would be prudent to assume that the ten- fold increase over the RDA found in traditional diets may have some benefit. Even these methods may be insufficient, however, since larger doses of carotenes are converted less efficiently than smaller ones. Massive doses of beta- carotene, moreover, increase levels of oxidative stress and stimulate the production of enzymes that degrade true vitamin A. By inducing a cellular vitamin A deficiency, large doses of beta- carotene cause cancerous changes in lung tissue even worse than those seen from cigarette smoking. For this reason, high- dose beta- carotene supplementation led to increases in cancer mortality and total mortality in two human trials. Although no studies have demonstrated this type of harm from juicing, carrot juice has the potential to raise blood levels of beta- carotene to the extremely high levels found in the aforementioned trials and large amounts of it may theoretically pose a risk. By contrast, the amount of beta- carotene found in a diet rich in vegetables protects against oxidative stress and cancer. The best plant source of vitamin A is red palm oil. Its oily matrix makes its carotenes more readily converted to vitamin A and its high content of vitamin E and low content of the polyunsaturated linoleic acid further augment the convertibility of its carotenes and also protect against their potentially destructive effects. It is pure speculation, however, to suppose palm oil can be considered functionally equivalent to vitamin A- rich foods such as liver and liver oils. Vegetarians should use red palm oil, but those who are willing to include liver or liver oils in their diet would be better off for doing so. Vitamin DVitamin D is best known for its relation to calcium metabolism. By supporting the absorption of calcium from food, it prevents and cures the childhood bone disease rickets and its adult counterpart osteomalacia. It also protects against tetany, convulsions and heart failure in newborns, helps prevent osteoporosis in the elderly, prevents the development of type 1 diabetes, and is believed by some researchers to have additional roles in protecting against cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure, obesity, arthritis, multiple sclerosis and various other diseases. Vitamin D was originally associated with cod liver oil and exposure to ultraviolet light. It is found in the highest amounts in fish livers, the flesh of fatty fish, and the blood of land animals; and in smaller amounts in butter and lard from animals raised with plenty of exposure to sunshine. Skin contains a precursor to cholesterol called 7- dehydrocholesterol that converts to vitamin D upon exposure to sunlight in the UV- B range, which is available year- round in the tropics but absent during an increasing portion of the year with increasing distance from the equator. While humans and animals synthesize vitamin D3, a second form of the vitamin called vitamin D2 is found in some vegetarian foods, especially mushrooms that have been exposed to ultraviolet light. Although the relative safety and efficacy of the two forms is still controversial, vitamin D2 appears to be five to ten times less effective at supporting long- term nutritional status. The RDA for vitamin D is 2. IU for infants and adults through the age of 5. IU for adults between the ages of 5. IU for adults over the age of 7. Evidence strongly suggests, however, that the true requirement is far higher. Supplements of 2,0. IU per day in infants under the age of one nearly obliterate the life- long risk of type 1 diabetes while supplements of 8. IU or higher are required to reduce the risk of fracture in the elderly. Nebraskans need to supplement with 1,0. IU per day during the coldest six months of the year to achieve blood levels that maximize calcium absorption and with almost 5,0. IU per day during the same period of time to achieve blood levels similar to those achieved in sun- rich living conditions without supplementation. These amounts of vitamin D should only be consumed in the context of a diet rich in vitamin A and vitamin K2 for maximal efficacy and safety. The 1. 7 Day Diet Plan â Lose 1. Lbs in 1. 7 Days.
