Sources: Protein
Minimum intake Protein: 1g+/kg (2.2g/lbs)
Tier 1: Whey, Lean Meat, Casein, Fish
Tier 2: diary, eggs (T2 Because Of Too Much Saturated Fats)
Tier 3: anything plant based
- Tier reasoning: there are less muscle building
  specific amino acids in lower tier proteins
Sources: Fats
Minimum intake Fat: AT LEAST 0.5g/kg
Polyunsaturated
Tier: Essentials
Where:
- oils: Canola/Flaxseed/Walnut
- nuts & seeds
Quantity: X
(beware some of them are
pretty high in saturated fat also)
Benefits:
- Hormones, skin health, anti-inflamatory, nervous system repair
Monosaturated
Tier: Good
Where: Basically same as the above
Quantity: X
Very Ok source of calories
Can aid in heart health
No serious side effects from eating them
MCT (Medium Chained Triglicerides)
Tier: Good
Where:
    - Best Natural Occurring: Coconuts / Coconut Oil
    - You Can Get Pure (Under C10) MCT Only Oil
Quantity: Not in excess
No Exact Guidelines Given
Benefits:
    - Coconut fat is half Lauric acid
  which (as human breast milk) aids the imune system
  - *Lauric Is A Longer Molecule (not quite MCT)
    - Coconut fat is 15% Pure MCT
    - Can Directly Be USed By The Brain
    - Slightly Higher Metabolism
Saturated
Tier: Meh
Where:
    - Just Saturated: meat, diary, eggs
    - Some Saturated: peanuts, cashew, coconut, other
Quantity: Not in excess
    - Should be under 10% of total Kcals
Benefits:
    - No real benefits
Trans Fats (hydrogenated)
Tier: NO
Quantity: The Less The Better
This is The worst macro you can eat
Sources: Carbs
Good Sources
T1 Grains Ex: Rice, Wheat, Corn, Oats
T2 Vegetables Ex: Beans, Potato, Soy
- Tier reasoning: high total mass, high vegetable protein foods
  will digest worse than clean grains
  T2 is ok too, but more as side dishes rather than main sources
Minimum intake Carbs: none, increase/decrease based on goals
-
Size, Strength? -> Add Carbs++
-
Maintain, Cut?   -> Adjust Based On Kcals
Glicemic Index(GI)
Basically how much your blood sugar(glucose) raises
Screw this up alot, diabetes
The easier it gets digested & absorbed in the gut the higher the index.
GI overview
- v.high powders
- medium-high white grains/starchy food
- medium integral grains are
- low-medium nuts
- low vegetables
- v.low meats/diary/eggs
β Note:Eating proteins/fats with carbs
will change (lower) that index
ββ Note: that list is a high level overview,
if you want to change what
you eat based on this check some good lists to
better understand the phenomenon
Types of molecules
Glucoze/Amidon:
    - most performant source of energy
    - high water retention, in the muscle (but also in rest)
Fructose:
    - lowest performer
    - More similar to fats actually
      It doesn't get into the blood stream directly,
      rather it's metabolized in the liver.
Sugar:
      - 50/50 glucose/fructose
Lactose:
      - Nothing really to say, but not an ideal source
