What makes a calorie empty?
Why can't beer be just as good as pasta/bread/rice for bulking?
>>
Because it has no useful micronutrients, meaning its garbage waste of calorie intake.

Compare 2000 calories of beer to 2000 calories of meat.

So if I take all my micronutrients separately I am ok?

'empty calories' is a buzzword used by facebook mums for food without significant nutritional value

That's a meme, Arnold drank beer over milk.

It's american mom-science.

Just like the fact americans can't differentiate between 1 calorie and 1000 calories for whatever fucking reason.

Impossible. There are nutrients/minerals/acids/molecules that you get from food that cannot be synthesized/put in a pill. Yur body and mind will deteriate in some way if you went that route

Real answer is there is no reason you can't bulk on candy. Empty calories are still calories and will still help you bulk; so long as you get enough protein, you can bulk on any food and build muscle.
Now obviously this is unhealthy, but that's not the question. And bulking on alcohol is a bad idea because alcohol inhibits protein synthesis. If you drank non alcoholic beer to bulk then that would be perfectly fine.

He's not just drinking beer. You're acting like your whole diet has to be beer in order to drink. Why is /fit/ so filled with all or nothing faggots?
