      Damn this might be too late since this was posted 5yrs ago but it's around 30-50g that you can fully utilize/use for muscle building...but you can absorb an unlimited amount in 1 sitting, the excess above 50g just doesn't get used to muscle building...so it's better to go for like 5meals with 40g protein than 2 meals with 100g each to maximize gains, but the 2meals with 100g each is still better than having less protein.... source: Dr. Layne Norton aka biolayne

    Also in cases of nervines like nervous disorders you can actually treat anxiety and depression by relaxing the muscles using electrolytes things like epilepsy or affected by electrolytes and it can stimulate and smoothly condition you're nervous system to be less reactive but this is also true with your muscular system or you muscular skeletal system which may be spasmodic but essentially depression anxiety is also form of spasm or spasmodic reaction, what you want is less spasms more fluidity and consistency, like a heartbeat you want something that's consistent not irregular.

    if you look at the labels of sports drinks, theyre actually rubbish. theyre FULL of sugar (30-45g per 500ml) and have very little actual electrolytes in them. To make it worse, theyre often filled with sucrose and little glucose, which is essentially table sugar. So what you pay $5 per bottle is just coloured and flavoured water with table salt and table sugar in them. Absolute waste of money and wont be useful unless youre running 10+ kms

      +alan strumolo I'm about 160 lbs and depending on what you eat for dinner we eat about the same amount of calories through out the day I don't eat much for dinner though. So, for your question "Am I eating enough" it depends on your body type, how much physical activity and your goals. For me I want to maintain my muscle mass and lose fat and this calorie range fits me even though it's slow. I train 6 days a week so that is probably why I need to eat a little more than the average person that weighs 160 lbs.

    • @meroxyersox
      @meroxyersox 8 лет назад

      Weigh everything you eat. Look on the packaging where it tells you the calories per 100g, and multiply it so it matches the weight of your food. Add these values up for your whole days worth of food and it will tell you how many calories you've eaten in a day. Then see if you're gaining or losing weight week by week, depending on your goals you could be eating too much, not enough, or just the right amount. Until you count, you just don't know!
