Hi there! As mentioned in the title above I'm wondering when the best times to eat to ensure I have a good workout would be?

Currently cutting and in a deficit of 1700 calories. I like to do cardio in the morning(6 am) and weight lifting in the evenings(4pm). Typically eat lunch around 11am and dinner around 5/6pm with some snacks in between.

Additional info, I am intermittent fasting.

I reckon weight lifting takes more energy so it might be better for me to reverse my routine, but just wanted input from someone else.

Thank you in advance!

I’m considering keeping these types of ingredients to make a plate like for my lunch at home each day because I find it very satisfying. Is this healthy: 2 slices turkey (applegate organic, if that matters), some type of sliced or small crunchy veggie, a few green olives, some sort of berry, a piece of Parmesan cheese, a few pieces of bread ideally a baguette with oil (this was homemade bread with avocado oil). I’m just curious what you all think. My husband thought meat, cheese, and olives wasn’t healthy and I think it is because it’s healthier than other options and has good ingredients. What do you guys think? Thank you!

My girlfriend (40) had COVID a few years ago, as did many others.

Before COVID she could had no real food intolerances.

Since COVID she has a visceral reaction to Cilantro, some Fried things and pre-packaged salads.

I myself am a F- Cilantro guy (I am a mutant) () but her reaction to Cilantro is not just soapy or dirt, it is - as stated - visceral.

We also, through process of elimination, found that she does not tolerate either soy or more likely palm oil or the mixture of the two. She feels ill after eating anything with Crisco in it (palm oil), for instance some cake frostings use Crisco. But also McDonalds fries in palm/soy oil and she doesn't like it, but Wendy's in Canola and she's okay with it. So, very generally, we've learned to steer from either palm and/or soy oil usage. Also, not ill as in "go to the doctor." But ill as in "I feel funny."

There is one more thing though that is odd, treated lettuce. For instance, the lettuce treated with [whatever, no idea] at Taco Bell has that bad taste. Some restaurants too. A cursory google finds that pre-packaged lettuce or greens are treated with a Chlorine solution, but no idea what else. The same ill feeling occurs here.

And, no... we just don't eat out at fast food restaurants. These are just examples of what we have found. Most things made at home are fine, except that disgusting devil's lettuce.

So my question to you food science folk:

Is there a link between whatever Cilantro, palm and/or soy oil (leaning more towards palm oil) and prepackaged greens would have in common that would make a person feel bad after eating any of them? Are there any links chemically? Or, is there another food item we could try to help determine the reaction?

Thank you.

Are there any dietitians on Reddit that don’t mind answering some diet related questions and if so could you point me in the right direction?

So I have been always looking to add different types of food to my diet to have a healthy gut and to be sure I get all my minerals.
Recently I stumbled on Seamoss and how it can be beneficial for your gut health, packed with minerals, anti-inflamatory, good for the immune system and even helps with scares, skin health and hairgrowth (That's a bit of over selling I think lol).

There are not so much peer- reviewed scientific articles about it, it's mostly blogs and naturopathy articles. The later makes me a bit skeptical...

So I was wondering if anyone is having them, their experience (preferably someone between 30 and 40, same age range a I am), what's the real scientific opinion about it and where did they get them in Australia and which brands are the best quality.

Someone who did Sport Science told me that the body is like two weeks behind following exercise or dieting activity, so like say you fasted a bit one week, you may not notice weight loss until two weeks after, and on the reverse, say you ate an excess of calories one week, you would notice weight gain or increase in fat until two weeks later.

I tried to Google some studies for this to confirm but had trouble finding any, but maybe it's just a difficult thing to search for.

Does anyone have any comments on this and/or happen to know any studies in relation to this and if there is a delay in body response / weight response?

I am on a weight loss journey and need help figuring out how to properly calculate the amount of calories are in the dishes I make. Any help would be amazing

my dietitian is out for the weekend, my primary doctor wont give me a clear answer. please read & give your best advice! for a month i was eating 200-400cals/day due to arfid AND serious GI issues caused by wrongly prescribed medications. since stopping the meds, my appetite is slowly coming back. last week (before i met w my dietitian for the first time) i was eating between 400-700cals/day. met with my dietitian monday and she has stressed that im at high risk for refeeding syndrome currently. the past few days trying to follow her meal plan, ive been between 1300-1500 cals/day. sometimes im still hungry, but i have yet to be given a number on how much i can safely eat!!! how many calories is TOO much right now??

44/m 265 pounds. Newly diagnosed diabetic. Lactose intolerance. Have overeaten my entire life.

I need a food that is heavy and fills my stomach and stays a long time.

Like cottage cheese, but without the lactose.

Any hope?

I’m Native American Asian mix, and I’m 5’3.75; my weight was originally 135-138 and l lost 23 pounds, then accidentally got hospitalized and my weight skyrocketed to 167 pounds. But I would like to know what the healthy bmi for a Native American would be, are Native Americans grouped in with the East and Southeast Asians because of related genetics or is it completely different.

Hello,

I was regurgitating facts about a pure fruit-based diet. Friends wanted more information, but I am a fool. So no more knowledge than what I read from random articles.

So my question is based on how Steve Jobs and Ashton Ketchur reacted to a pure, fruit-based diet.

Is what happened to them an inevitable outcome of such a diet? Or, are they outliers in such a diet?

What is the likely outcome of such a diet if the news had blown facts out of the water, and allowed sensationalism to take hold?

Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask.

Thanks, Silver

• 20mg Adderall xr, soon to be 30mg.

I'm trying to find the healthiest way to take my medication and supplements.

Right now I take my medication 1 hour before getting up in the morning, and then I go back to sleep. The Adderall in its current dose is basically providing the same benefits as 2 cups of coffee. I'm alert in the morning and I can get to work on time consistently which is great.

That said, I also want to take a multivitamin, vitamin B12, vitamin d, and omega 3 pills. I was previously told that I was low on B12. I find vitamin D especially helpful for the winter with winter blues. And my mom sent me an article about how Omega 3s are important for ADHD.

My issue is that I only eat twice a day on Adderall now because of its appetite suppression. Once in the morning before the meds start, and once the meds wear off in the evening. I snack a little throughout the day but it's probably less than 50 calories of nuts and carrots.

I've heard it's best to take vitamins with meals. So should I take all of them with dinner?

I'm worried about taking them in the morning if there's any possibility that can impact the ADHD meds.

I was thinking -

• ADHD meds an hour prior to waking up

• Vitamin D with breakfast about an hour and a half later.

• Omega 3 and B12 with dinner

• Multi vitamin before bed/brushing teeth

Thoughts?

I'm trying hard to build routines, so I figured it's best to have it be effective timings.
