What's the consensus on which protein is better for you and why?



I understand that Casein is digested much slower than Whey so people tend to take Casein before they go to bed. Is there a purpose for each type of protein?



I've heard pros and cons about Soy protein and currently use Whey, but I'd like to clear up any doubts.

yea it's from weight lifting. I'll look into the Vitamin E lotion. Sounds interesting. Thanks for the reply.

I'm not anywhere near having a BF% in the teens, but another thing to consider is varying your routine. Your body will start to get used to the same routine if it's done over and over again. That's why you notice over time that exercises become less strenuous. So, you should probably shock your body by changing up your routine and also follow what others have already said. You can start by doing your exercises in a different order or change them all together or vary the intensity via interval training. Do you do any kind of weight lifting as well?

I have a few stretch marks on my upper chest close to where my shoulders are. They're not that noticeable, but still, I'd like to see if there are ways to get rid of them. I've read somewhere about cocoa butter?

wh



How come they have pizza listed as something to eat often? And why is peanut butter listed as something to eat rarely? I thought the fat from peanuts was healthy fat, as long as it's taken in moderation. Personally I love the Natural peanut butter from Skippy. It tastes so good and there doesn't seem to be any hydrogenated oils listed in the ingredient line. Calories are still a lil high, but I've stopped eating it with bread and am now eating it in moderation with celery. Any thoughts? Pizza? Peanut Butter?

I'm not 100% certain, but I believe that if an ingredient is under a certain percentage in the overall product, the exact amount does not have to be placed on the label. They can claim that it has 0% of that nutritional value. Which ofcourse is very misleading. You'll find a lot of "wheat" bread that has high fructose corn syrup which mostly goes unlabelled. That's why it's good to read the ingredient list of every product.
