The foods I tend to try and eat as much of as possible are sweet potatoes, chickpeas, spinach, turkey & chicken and eggs.
I'm into gaining strength but I don't see the point in a lot of supplements. I've considered trying steroids but don't like the idea of messing around with the bodies natural levels of hormones.
I've heard arguments for and against lots of supplements so to avoid confusion I just think I might aswell avoid them and just stick to foods which are pretty much proven to be healthy in moderation.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.

There is no evidence for high blood pressure from high salt intake?
Quote:Their report (which is over 150 pages) was released recently. A major conclusion of the IOM paper is that the quality of the current evidence linking salt to health outcomes is very poor. There are virtually no randomized studies and the rest of the studies suffer from important methodological flaws (like imprecisely measuring salt intake or using self-reported food diaries to estimate salt intake).

I guess you need to take those studies with a grain of salt.

In excess it is quite bad.
But then so is oxygen.
