The diet. He wants you off bi-valves, crustaceans, fish without a backbone or scales, basically any kind of bottom feeding animal. I follow it for the most part, except crawfish. Nicholas would understand if he ever had them.

Zach, you couldn't be more incorrect. Avocados are very good for you. The oil is a "good" fat. It has a barrage of benefits. LINK

Thank you!!! I realized that there was some reason I threw up when I first tasted coconut at age 8. And have never eaten the crap since then. It was the smell that got me. It said "Zach, this is shite...don't eat it."

LOL. It's one of the best things you can possibly put in your body. Rich in fiber and Omega 3s which help burn fat.

It boggles my mind how your generation ate. I don't want to sound disrespectful about the past tense there. It's just that my grandfather fought in WWII. My grandmother fried everything. They got healthier in the 70's and 80's. But my grandfather still dropped dead in his kitchen at 64. He should have had bypass sx, but never did. It's almost as if the orange juice at breakfast, and the spinach at dinner was all the 'health food' ya'll needed. I love ya Zach.

I got my info from the gym where I worked out in the 80s. The owner said it was crap and showed me the data. Mexicans eat Guacomoli. Mexicans are fat.

Check out Perricone's book. Or have Lucy look at it. It'll help you feel better. Not sure about the look younger part, but that diet definately makes you feel more alive.

Beer
Contains: Water - basic building block of life Barley

Barley is particularly rich in trace minerals. A cup of cooked barley provides 36.4 mcg, or micrograms, of selenium, or 52 percent of the DV; and 0.64 mg of copper, or 32 percent of the DV. The University of Delaware reports that selenium, in conjunction with vitamin E, helps protect cell membranes from deterioration and promotes normal thyroid function. Copper helps the body use iron effectively; plays a prominent role in bone and cartilage development; and, like the B vitamins, is needed for energy metabolism.
Hops

Hops are also used in herbal medicine to enhance breast milk quality and production.
Yeast

This food is very low in Saturated Fat and Cholesterol. It is also a good source of Protein, Folate and Potassium, and a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Copper and Selenium.
It's pretty much the only thing one needs to survive.

Yeah, I'm sure that has nothing to do with chips and salsa, tamales or the ungodly amounts of chili sauce , cheese and fast digesting carbs that today's Mexican food contains. Seriously man, bodybuilders eat avocado every day. So do most healthy people.

True. Generally. But I grew up in a house with very little food. We didn't have to worry about fried food. It was more like a Mayo sammich. I graduated from HS at 5-8, 111 pounds. My brother was thinner.

A lot of that is genetics. The one thing I can thank Mom for is that she raised me salt free as an experiment. I have no taste for salt. The idea was to prevent high blood pressure. I have to add it to Lucy's food.

I've known lots of body builders. None of them ate avocado as a work out diet. But if you've got a body builder regimen that requires it please post it.
