Re: Is coconut cream or milk ok to eat?
If you mean coconut milk, yes but with caution that it is very caloricly dense. A little goes a long way. I use it in currys all the time. Milk is not ok.
Re: Garlic Extract with oil soybean works in PAGG
How much mg of Alliin does it say per pill? Mine are like 4800mcg.
Re: Super thirsty...
I was super thirsty in the first months as well... I'm not sur if I just drink more water or have gotten used to it. I still am regularly thirsty. Burning fat uses water. It's a good sign.
Re: what is Pagg supliment?
Policosanol, Alpha-Lipoic Acid, Garlic extract, Green tea extract. You take the AGG part three times a day. Morning, middle of your day sometime, and bed, and add the policosanol with the bedtime ...
Hmm... Well I was on the whole PAGG stack. I was losing weight, but I don't think I lost much more than if was off it.
Re: Has anyone ever tried Glycobol or Alpha liopic Acid for weight loss/Muscle gain?
ALA really gave me heartburn after a while. But yeah I've used it. I now use it only when removing from injury.
Re: Foggy on the whole "ketosis" thing...
I'm gonna paste in an old answer I gave which might help: "Technically, as soon as your body relies on fat (dietary or from your own stores) ketones are produced as a result of the different ...
Re: Can you drink your vegetables?
Gut some fats on those vegetables and your tongue will come around. Then you get the double-whammy of fiber and fat which are two of the best sating things you can eat.
Re: Shirataki Noodles - SCD Friendly?
I've never heard of them before your question, so take this advice with a grain of salt. My instinct was that they aren't. But based on what I've found, there shouldn't be a problem (in fact, they...
Tried it last night. It was awesome. Gonna do it again tonight. My normal blender didnt work that great, but Used my cheap emulsion blender and it...
Re: Is the use of PAGG / other supplements sustainable long term?
After a while, I found the ALA gave me heartburn / really hurt. I have acid reflux / stomach acid problems to start with though. But keep it in mind.
That sounds really good. I like the butter beans addition. Do you need some $500 can-chop-through-diamonds vitamax, or will my Walmart blender do?...
The Occams section says just eat like crazy (like 4000 calories a day). He recommends slow carb + some sort of simple carb like pasta or rice. And...
I never realized they had so much sugar until now. Good call. Luckily I don't have them often. Mind you: I've never noticed a stall on them either...

^^ Agreed. Lard is probably more healthy than margarine. It's a saturated fat, but so is the fat of every animal you eat. And also your own fat y...
Re: Occam's - BF% and waist cm went UP! Help please!
What you're (were) probably seeing is the results of Glutamine and Creatine. Creatine in particular. One of it's main functions is to re-hydrate muscle cells. Apparently, there's a ratio of 2 or 3...
I just checked your link. They have a glycemic load of 0.
Re: Tomatoes ok and not carrots? Why??
Wasn't all he saying that eating a lot of carrots make you feel like you got kicked in the gut by a horse? Seriously, there is absolutely no reason not to eat them (other than the above).
Start by getting your veggies going. Almost anything tastes good in it: Cauliflower, carrots, cut green beans. Onions, peppers are nearly essenti...
Re: Meal Ideas
- I've found a good canned lentil soup and a good black bean soup. Take the time to read the ingredients and find a good one and make it a staple. Always a good fall back meal because it doesn't e...
Re: SCD healthy in long run?
What we *know* it does that's good for you: - decreases body fat - we know that being overweight and especially visceral fat (not the stuff that pads your skin, but the stuff between your organs,...

Re: I Have Sinned
Congrats on losing what you have so far! There was 6 weeks where I started a new job and was staying with family until I found a place and took possession of it. They are vegetarians and breads,...
I should mention: 'this diet' means the Occams specific, high calorie diet for bulking up.
Cool. I checked it out. Don't blame yourself for gaining some fat, I think it's inevitable on this diet (and a lot of body building). There is bul...
Re: Any Occam's Experts out there?
I'm just starting it too and am wondering the same thing. My understanding is occams workout without the diet won't build the same sort mass--at least not as quickly. but with diet you gain fat. ...
Re: how do i cook 4hb food without lots of time?
Once a week I make what can only be described as chili in its final state, but its base is taco seasoned beef. 2-3 lbs of beef 3-4 big onions diced (looks like a lot but it will reduce) 3-4 bell ...
Re: No energy on my runs
I'd say if you are just post cheat day you should be fine without carbing up. and on other days with your glycogen depleted I probably would if I was going any longer than an hour. I seem to remem...
Re: Alternative to giving blood?
Leeches. sorry I had to. Seriously though... It probably would work. See, not all 18th C medicine was quackery.

Dammit I had a nice detailed answere wrote out and my page refreshed. this is the quick version. I worked this out for myself once a while back. Popcorn is less sugary than sweet corn you eat at...
