It's not excessive if you need x grams of protein, measured.
Quite. I warrant that there aren't a dozen people on here, who couldn't achieve adequate dietary protein if they calculated their need.
How are those breast milk smoothies working out for you?
Kinky. Milk is a complete food and has been demonstrated to at least equal recovery drinks.
Evolution 1 : 0 Industry.
If you're training you are 'body building'.
True, but not aiming for hypertrophy (Yukirin excepted).
A bottle of cod liver oil tablets costs less than a quid. The quantity and quality of research into fish oils is massive and dates back to the 70s. It's not a fad diet.
Apologies. I didn't mean to suggest that fish oil was bunkum; rather that if you eat the source food, there is no need for the refined supplement.
Most of the stuff I've read concludes even a very good western diet falls well short of the optimum amounts.
So don't eat a Western diet. If you have a poor diet, surely it makes more sense to change it rather than continue with your poor choices, supplementing them with er... supplements?
Apart from the expense, supplements only add the good stuff, not remove the crap we'd be better off not eating in the first place.
The truth is our [modern] diet is more the product of commerce and the Industrial Revolution than human evolution. Well I'm glad we could, at least, agree on that. :)
And if my mind is diseased (which I don't dispute), it's the product of a krypto-fascist, industrial complex; the sole objective of which is the subjugation of free will and the rights of the common man, through the agency of chicken nuggets and pop tarts.
Scilly.Suffolk-
Milk is a complete food
Not really. It depends if you definition of "complete" is "complete" or "contains a lot of stuff you need but not everything."
Breast milk is a complete food for babies. As is formula milk.
Dairy milk is not complete (for any aged humans), it may contain protein, fat and carbs but there are a load of essential vitamins and minerals it doesn't contain.
Milk [...] has been demonstrated to at least equal recovery drinks.
In what terms? Rehydration efficiency? (The recent BBC Horizon program demonstrated an interesting but utterly pointless result in this regard.)
