Do you vary your Protein source on a daily basis or don't you just give a fuck (about high cholesterol's) and eat meats, eggs and dairy products every day?
"Immigration studies show that this resistance to heart disease is not just something in the Africans’ genes. When people move from low-risk to high-risk areas, their disease rates skyrocket as they adopt the diet and lifestyle habits of their new homes.5 The extraordinarily low rates of heart disease in rural China and Africa have been attributed to the extraordinarily low cholesterol levels among these populations. Though Chinese and African diets are very different, they share commonalities: They are both centered on plant-derived foods, such as grains and vegetables. By eating so much fiber and so little animal fat, their total cholesterol levels averaged under 150 mg/dL,6,7 similar to people who eat contemporary plant-based diets"

also beans are a good source of protein
I eat those every day and my total cholesterol is 84 mg/dL. Feels good to not have plebeian genetics.
I'm a poorfag, so chicken tits and eggs are my only real choices. Well and cottage but only subhumans eat that shit
I eat chicken twice a day. Sometimes 3 times a day. It is the GOAT food tbqhfamalam
I eat chicken and chicken related products, that's literally it.
>>35648114
I keep variety in my diet on general principle, to make sure I'm getting a wide range of micronutrients.
For protein:
Chicken thighs
Eggs
Quinoa
Salmon
Pork sausage
Venison
Beef stew meat
Cod
Tilapia

>People in rural China and Africa whose diets consists of plant-derived foods rather than McDonald's have lower rates of heart disease
>Who would've guessed?

Don't forget about lentils. Just as cheap, healthy, and versatile.

Cholesterol is essential for testosterone production. Stay low test.
>>35648962
>>where this conversation goes
>dietary cholesterol isn't shown to contribute much to blood cholesterol
>most cholesterol comes from synthesis
>thus dietary cholesterol is worthless for increasing testosterone
..or something like that.

Do you avoid tuna because of the mercury or the taste?
>>35648995
A little of both. Don't love the flavor and would rather eat salmon for my Mercury fish.

IDK, I would agree that dietary cholesterol is beneficial to gains; and apparently so would science.

but it also increases the chance of hearth disease
"A study at Oxford University that tracked nearly 45,000 people over ten years
found that the vegetarians had a 32 per cent lower chance of dying from heart
disease compared to non-vegetarians. This was due largely to their lower blood
pressure and cholesterol levels as well as higher intakes of fruit, vegetables
and fibre."

Dietary cholesterol negatively affecting blood cholesterol is a myth.

>>35651564
You did not refute what he asserted, anon.
>>35652295
He said that dietary cholesterol increases the chance of heart disease, and per the logic that there's no evidence of it negatively affecting serum cholesterol ratios, yes -- that claim is unfounded.
>>35652444
He didn't say anything about serum cholesterol, anon. Please stop shitting up the thread.
>>35652496
How about reading?
>>dietary cholesterol is beneficial to gains
>it also increases the chance of hearth disease
>>35652553
Both assertions are demonstrably true.
>>35652635
Please show evidence of how dietary cholesterol negatively impacts health.
Good luck.
>>35652652
Haha fuck you dude, he made an assertion you have yet to refute, don't get me involved in your damage control.
>>35653169
He made an assertion without evidence. Git gud.

Didn't want to start a new thread to ask this so I'm posting it in a diet related thread.
LBM 155 BF% 15 H: 5'11
I lift 3 days a week and run on another 3.
My calories for my running days are currently 2380. (activity factor of 1.5 because of my job)
Roughly a 400cal deficit. I am running for cardiovascular health, not necessarily to lose weight. The treadmill says I burn 300 cals a session.
My macros are roughly 200g P 200g C 80g F
My question is, should I eat an extra 200 cals as to not drop below a 500 cal daily deficit?
I do want to preserve my LBM as much as possible.
the only veggies i eat are carrots and corn, is that too much starch? should i sub in a different veggy?
>>35648114
>eat meats, eggs and dairy products every day?
yep
>>35656444
>The treadmill says I burn 300 cals a session.
Probably inaccurate.
>>35657150
So don't worry about it then?
>>35654868
>true propositions with false conclusions
>literally invalid
L2 logic, nigger.
>>35657165
Yes.
