RE: The Anti-Keto Propaganda Continues

in #keto5 years ago

If you are an endurance athlete (marathon), then yes you DO need carbs. But as for "hard gaining" - I think I fall in the category - just eat more quality calories. 1g of fat yields 2.25x the calories of carb or protein

Sort:  

so you mean just eat as much fat and protein as possible?

do you have some sources to read into carb, fat, protein, calories?

As far as quality? Thomas Delauer and Sten Eckberg are two excellent sources (especially the latter one, as he has a more educational approach). Another one, Flavor City, has some keto recipes.

As far as "as much": don't forget that total calories still matter. But yes, if you're a "hard gainer", then you likely don,t eat enough for what you spend

it's 5:10 am and I'm hungry

:D
