  1. Protein while breastfeeding

    If I was a woman, I'd be picky about where my food comes from - regardless of price lol

  2. Honey?

    How do you think diabetics are made? There is plenty of research out there showing the detrimental effects of sugar on the human body, it's effects on the brain etc. I don't think that, just because you can't immediately see or feel the effects of something, you can say with 100% certainty that...

  3. Critique my diet

    From the research I've read - it would appear that the idea that you need to continuously spike your insulin via high GI carbs is a fallacy. I do believe a lot of bodybuilders begin to develop hyperinsulinemia (again, not all). Your pancreas is like anything in the body - if you abuse it...

  4. BCAA Timing?

    Yeah, the way I look at BCAA's vs EAA's is, with BCAA's, it's like you've gathered all of the materials you need to build your house; however, you forgot to call the builders to finish the job.

  5. Protein while breastfeeding

    There's a great brand - WHEY NATURAL USA This is as close as you'll find to the ideal protein powder. It's made from the milk of pasture fed cows and is processed through a 'cold processing' cycle rather than heat treated which means a lot of the natural fractions of the whey and milk stay that...

  6. Best protein before bed

    Why not just have some cottage cheese? There's all of your casein there

  7. BCAA Timing?

    There is also a good amount of research coming out now that is suggesting that BCAA's are inferior compared with complete proteins - as such - maybe EAA's would be a better option

  8. Sleep aids?

    What is your sleep hygiene like? But since you're asking about sleep aids - GABA may be helpful to you as a hypnotic. Have you tried meditation or relaxation exercises? If your mind is highly active prior to bed these can help.

  9. Whats better? Olive or coconut oil?

    Indeed I am, I'm looking forward to being a part of the Anabolic Minds community! :D

  10. Whats better? Olive or coconut oil?

    Coconut Oil MCT's have been found to boost diet induced thermogenesis by up to 50% as well!

  11. I need a supplement, that will lower cortisol.

    Ha! Well, whatever works for you, right? - glad to know you're doing well again!!

  12. cottage cheese......

    Cottage Cheese mixed with cinnamon and raw cacao powder FTW

  13. Favorite Workout Gloves?

    Skin :P I used to use gloves; however, in the long run, they're more of a hindrance than a help - embrace the steel brother!

  14. I need a supplement, that will lower cortisol.

    Phosphatidyl Serine is a good one. I also recommend adaptogenic herbs e.g. - Ginseng, Ashwaghanda and Rhodiola Rosea. However, it sounds like you've had a rough ride! As a psychologist, I would also recommend having a couple of sessions with a therapist just to talk through the depression, etc...

  15. DAA or Creatine

    Creatine FTW ... at last check, I think DAA is more useful for fertility than as an ergogenic!
