    Bryan, Low Carb Diets

    A while back you made a statement that said that when one uses an ultra-low carb diet for long periods of time, the body starts storing fat instead of burning it since fat becomes the only fuel source available. How is this possible on a hypocaloric diet? I've read that below 50g carbs per day...

    frequent feedings

    I started a thread a while back in regards to meal frequency, it turned out to be a good discussion here. You can search it. Keeping calories equal, i've switched from 4 meals to 2 meals a day (spaced 12 hours apart) and noticed no change in body composition, no extra muscle loss. I find life...

    High Carb vs. High Fat

    Bryan, I never heard that before. Eating a zero carb, high fat diet will lead to increased fat storage b/c it is your only energy source. From what research are you drawing that from? I'd love to know since i'm currently on a zero carb, moderate-high fat diet and want to know if this is...

    protein before bed

    robefc, its not a stupid question, actually a really good one. I brought up the same point w/ my thread "case for less meals". OK, so most eat 6x a day then go from 8-12 hours during the night without protein. If one is eating smaller meals w/ protein every 2-3 hours, then they are...

    Poliquin Diet Method (Digestive Health)

    ANother thing I have noticed as well which seems very odd to me, is this type of diet, even devoid of all carbs, keeps my muscles pretty full, especially w/ extra fat. Before this diet I was doing a pretty low fat diet w/ frequent refeeds, and my muscles were not filling out at all, even w/ some...

I went to his seminar several years ago and have since kept pretty up to date on his recommendations. I'd like to know other's opinions and experiences (if any) on this...

    Case for less meals

    I'd like to continue w/ this topic. Anyone have info as to the rate of digestion of different meat sources. I figure meats will maintain a positive nitrogen balance for +8 hours b/c a)Lyle has said this on another board and b)the biore studies on fast vs. slow proteins shows a serving of casein...

    Case for less meals

    Here are some parts of a conversation on the same topic w/ Lyle McDonald on MFW. "As a random tangent, one set of studies found that too frequent protein feeding (in this case hourly meals) gave LESS net nitrogen balance than 3 discrete protein meals. Admittely, it's an extreme example but...

    Case for less meals

    I'm looking for opinions on eating less frequently. I have some theories as to why it may prove to be a greater advantage than eating more often. 1st off, I'm unable to use protein powders. I have allergies to whey, casein, and egg protein (and don't wish to use soy/rice, etc). My only option is...
