Part 1: What’s Your Beef
Bad Choices: Sometimes (Use Your Head)
I’m Convinced; Smart People Can Rationalize Anything
So That It Makes Them Feel Better About Their BAD Choices
I can tell you right now that I can look at the picture above of that beautiful Beef; 140-Day Aged “Prime” Rib Eye Steak and tell you that it will probably be worthy of “Tales from the Dinner Table”, and I can also tell you just by looking at it, that it’s not a LEAN Cut of Beef and is probably approaching a fat content of 50% — Did you forget? — YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. 1
Full Disclosure: I’ve been weening myself of Animal Protein since I read the “China Study” by Thompson and watched “Forks Over Knives” (Read: Blog Post I wrote in April 2015, Nutrition: How Do You Best Perform at Your Optimal Level). Don’t get me wrong, I love a charred, grilled, pan fried, oven roasted piece of meat like nobody’s business, but, I also have physical fitness goals that are important to me.
AND, I know some of you don’t have the choice I have; You Have NO Choice; you have to, it’s a matter of Life or DEATH — which one do you choose?
You Are SMART
Make SMART Nutrition Choices
You ARE What YOU Eat
A portion of meat = 80g (roughly the size of a pack of cards)
The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) recommends no more than 500g per week, (around 6 portions)
