I remember competing as a natural middleweight
when I was 22 and only eating 25g of protein

As I mentioned earlier, you might find that your body is particularly sensitive to
carbs and feels better
when you reduce intake several
days per week.
This means,
when you are first starting out, you initially want to limit your daily net
carb intake up to 20g
per day.
In my VERY humble opinion,
when referring to the Standard American Diet, or SAD, anything less than 100 grams of carbohydrate
per day is pretty low
carb.
I was not perfect for first week, then I saw rapid weight loss / water loss
when I started to count my nutrient macros, (Onion and cabbage were less in
carbs, but if you calculate the «20 «gram
carb ratio
per day, then its fine).
You should consume 2.3 to 3.2 grams of
carbs per pound for light to moderate training that lasts less than one hour, 3.2 to 4.5 grams
per pound for heavy training at a high intensity and 4.5 to 5.5 grams
per pound of body weight each
day when running longer than four to five hours.
Since
Carb Nite is a cyclic ketogenic diet which entails eating less than 30 gm of carbs per day during the week with only 1 carb re-feed day per week, I was eating less carbs than when I drew my previous test, but definitely more carbs than when I was in strict nutritional ketosis... and you can see there is a pretty clear relationship between the amount of carbs I ate and both my TSH and Free

And I have been trying to mix the
carb intake (higher
carbs / lower fat
when I train, with one refeed ~ 280 gr
carbs a
day at maintenance
per week) and moderate or lower
carbs (and higher food)
when I do cardio (once - twice) a week or rest.
@Richard —
when you write about subjects like «low
carb», VLC, can you please use numbers, like in grams of
carb per day average etc. in order to avoid confusion about definitions?
Looking back on it i was quite low
carb when the tests were done (sub 50g
per day) & i was not reaching the PHD min 600cals with protein.
When I do it, and I am not an athlete, I get 260 grams of non-fiber
carb per day, which is considerably more than you usually recommend.
As far as diet,
when i'm prepping I will eat around 275g protein, 100 - 200g
carbs (with high
carb days at 300 - 400g
per day 1 - 2x / week), and 50 - 60g of fat.
Generally, ketones will show up in urine
when intake is at 30 grams of
carbs per day or less, though this too can vary.
Dr. Barnard's study does not hold up
when compared to a very low
carb (30gm /
day) as
per dr Bernstein.
As the suggested
carb limit
per day is up to 20 grams, you should be very conservative
when it comes to
carbs.
However,
when you cut ingested
carbs down to less than 100g
per day something quite interesting happens: the body burns through those consumed
carbs first, then turns to the glycogen stores in the liver to maintain its basic system functions.
When you're only packing in 20
carbs per day, you're never hungry.
When she came to me, she was on 160g of
carbs per day, like 45g of fat, so not terrible.
I needed at least a teaspoon
per day of salt
when zero -
carbing, compared to less than a quarter - teaspoon
when eating
carbs.
What I did notice was
when I deviated from the rule (which was to keep the
carbs low — I needed to stay below 35 - 40 grams
per day) I wouldn't feel as energetic and I did notice that I would go up about 3 - 4 lbs on the scale.
Carbs should be kept under 20grams
per day when you are trying to get into ketosis.
Many studies found dramatic improvements in blood sugar levels, weight and other markers
when carbs were restricted to 20 grams
per day.
Ketosis is the state your body gets into
when you restrict your
carbs to very low levels (typically eating less than 50 grams
per day in most studies)
When switching to the Egg Fast regime, you automatically switch to eating up to 10 grams of total
carbs per day maximum.
but, given the fact that at the gym i do aerobic and anaerobic activities (weight lifting) i thought that for me, the amount of
carbs that you guys suggest (less than 20 grams
per day) is too low... my training sessions last at least 2 hours and i think that is a big factor
when it comes to glicogen depletion... i mean, probably, at the end of a long training session i have no
carbs left at all, i guess... and after the session the
carbs i eat are (for dinner) 17 grams of
carbs contained in the milk (350 ml) shaked with the powder proteins... i also don't eat much fat... in fact my nutritional regime has 1300 - 1400 kcal
per day... what do you think about it?
My fasting blood glucose seems better
when I am consuming 70 - 80 grams of
carb per day (no grain, limited fruit, etc..)
But it is significant that
when circumstances are right, 200 calories
per day of
carbs can eliminate the T3 drop and rT3 rise that is associated with glucose deficiency.
When I ate a zero
carb diet and got about 5000 IU
per day from ghee / butter, I experienced toxicity symptoms after a period of time.
