I’m sure you’ve heard of empty calories.
Chicken and egg whites are empty protein. No real micros or phytos.
Red meat and whole eggs are the only two true superfoods and maybe some fish.
Chalk full of all kinds of beneficial nutrients.

lol, this is a troll response, right?

If it’s not, what latest wanna be nutritional guru on YouTube did you get this from?

To name a few Eric Berg, Damon McCune, Shawn Baker, and Stan Efferding.

How frequently do you get blood work and check your health markers?

Mine are phenomenal especially after largely switching my chicken consumption to Beef.
Same with a ton of others.

But by all means continue eating chicken. I just think beef tastes 10x better and I know it is healthier than chicken when replaced in an equivalent calorically equated method.

Eat whatever you want, it's mostly DNA. If your mom and dad died at 50 of cancer, heart disease, whatever, you probably will too. Look up Jim Fixx.

If they lived till 90, you probably will too. Have that cigar and scotch.

Have you ever heard of balance?

Yup, of course

but that wasn’t the point.
The general thought many people have is beef bad, chicken good. They choose chicken over beef because they think it is “healthier” or “better” when it’s not, and often what they really wanted was the beef.

Obviously “healthier/better” is very contextual and situational and should be considered with the entirety of one’s diet. One meal or food doesn’t make you fit/healthy nor does it make you fat/unhealthy. It’s the entirety of your diet and your lifestyle over an extended period of time that will determine your overall health and fitness or lack thereof.

But, when equated for calories/macros (which isn’t difficult) red meat is superior.

I typically eat 8oz of bird a day, but 16oz of red meat.
The bird is cheaper and mixes up the meals and flavor profiles.

Yes, there are differences in the various nutrient densities in different kinds of meat. 4oz of liver packs a lot more micronutrient punch than 4oz of chicken breast.

But the vast majority of people in western countries don't struggle with micronutrient deficiencies. They struggle with caloric balance first and foremost, and sufficient protein intake to support muscle growth secondarily. Then there's the quality of that protein (mostly measured by bioavailability and essential amino acid content, which is where I have my... er... beef, with vegans), then there are a dozen other things, then there's what micronutrients your meat might bring with it.

Get the big things right first, and don't spare a thought for the little things until you've mastered the big ones.

Started eating overnight oats as my breakfast. I gotta say they aren't as bad as I thought they would, and it helps me poop, which is great. You can basically make it whatever way you wish and they possibilities are endless. Here's what I've been trying so far. I pack it inside a mason jar since they are extremely convenient.
1/2 Cup of Rolled Oats
3/4 Cup of Milk
Greek Yogurt (As desired) You have to remember that oats will expand so be generous.

Peach slices (Frozen)
1 teaspoon of Chia Seeds
1 Tablespoon of honey
1 tablespoon of peanut butter
Top off with some granola.


The consistency is kind of thick, mostly because of the oats and peanut butter, but you can add/take ingredients as you wish.

My fitness regiment is proving to be quite effective. Apparently I'm a "snack" now.

Regimen, or regiment?

I prefer Artic Zero, when I can get it. If you follow the instructions on letting it soften it's about the best "non-ice cream" ice cream I've ever had, and it is low in calories (@170 per pint depending on the flavor).

You do have to be careful when you buy it though. I check the pints by slightly squeezing them, if the packaging gives, it's been thawed and refrozen, and isn't nearly as good as pints that have been handled properly.
