wheat is one of the worst foods out there

eating carbs by themselves for almost everyone will be too much of a spike in my opinion.

And if I eat an orange I totally get way too alkaline (too parasympathetic, slow, lathargic, easily depressed etc etc)

pre fight meal should be right for the individual in my opinion.

If I ate 70-80% carbs in ANY meal and especially if wheat was a part I would have plenty of problems.

One way for all (be it food, religion, training, anything) cannot be in my opinion and experience.

15-20% protein and 5% fat..

Someone like me whos burns through carbs very fast needs a much higher percentage of fat and protein.

Infact I do very well on high fat (quality fat).

My training partner is different than myself. We have different foods that work for us and different ratios but he also needs way more fat and protein and eating high carb does plenty to him.

We have both experienced big changes in mood, energy levels, clearity of thought, improved digestion, improved sleep etc etc etc

By upping the fat and protein and cutting back on the carbs ESPRECIALLY wheat.

There are some people that might do well on 70% carbs too. But there is no one way in my opinion and experience.

People whos ansestors came from hot climates (say India and Africa) may do better on a higher carb, lower protein/fat diet.

I do better on dark and red meat. So my fat % is already gonna be over 5%. If i eat white meat and all those carbs its like sugar for many people.


I think one diet fits all is like saying every fighter should fight like Tyson, or every fighter should train like Ali.

Reality is we are all different IMO&E

If it works for you, do it!
