Nutrition and Supplements - Whey Protein
|
Whey Protein
By: Stephen Taddei
Whey protein is by far one of the most popular supplements especially with the bodybuilding and weightlifting folk. Most whey protein is derived from dairy products. Milk protein allotment for example is approximately 20% whey and 80% casein protein.
The reason it is so popular is in part due to the fact that it is absorbed so quickly by your body. This is a huge benefit for someone who needs quick nutrition after their workout. It is also a complete protein which means it contains all the essential amino acids.
Most everybody recognizes that protein is the building block of muscle but which protein is the best. Well if you're active and looking to replenish yourself afterwards then thats the perfect place to add in whey protein.
On the other hand Whey protein is not ideal as a meal replacement or diet shake. This is because as we noted earlier whey is absorbed into your body quickly, this means that it will not keep you full for very long and that it may be stored as fat (thought not much it's still quite low calorie) if you body doesn't need to use it. A more suitable protein in such a situation would be a slow digesting one such as casein.

How to Benefit from the Mind-Body Connection
(excerpt)
You are about to gain insight into the
mind-body connection. The number of
people who truly understand these principles on our
planet are relatively few.
There is an undeniable connection between our minds and
bodies, you can learn to use this fact to your benefit.
Dr. Bernie Siegel, author of "Love, Medicine and
Miracles" was once a distraught cancer surgeon until he
began to understand the greater principles of the mind-
body connection. He felt dragged down by the artificial
barriers that existed between patient and doctor, and the
helplessness he often felt as a result of his inability
to effectively serve those patients. Eventually, those
barriers were disintegrated by Dr. Siegel's recognition
and growing understanding of the mind-body connection and
how it could serve his patients and himself.
Dr. Siegel, or Bernie as he began to have his patients
refer to him, had some
startling realizations as a cancer surgeon. He found that
there were actually
quite a few people in the world that successfully beat
the statistics on cancer
survival. He began to recognize that a patient's ability
to defeat something as
serious as cancer had to do with the patient's mind and
attitude about their
disease.
