PROTEIN FOODS Locations

Hi there, I'm a 44 years old woman from the Netherlands, snce august I've been struggling with iron deficiency anemia. It really hindered my life, I was fatigued all the time and my short term memory was pretty bad. I couldn't walk up the stairs without getting light headed. I work part time, I could push through my shift but then I was wiped out. I could do some shoddy housekeeping, but no cooking, no hobbies. The cause of the anemia was excessive menstrual bleeding. My GP gave me iron supplements and sent me to the gynaecologist. The gynaecologist advised me to start using the contraceptive pill, non stop, so I didn't get my period anymore. The pill made me depress...

Hey, Been supplementing collagen peptides for few years between 20-50g / daily and recently in the 20g range to be safe as they are high in hydroxyproline and might increase risk of kidney stones? The thing is I would like to bump up my total daily protein from other than high BCAA sources. I eat low oxalates diet and plenty of dairy if that helps at all with the concern. What do you think?

Hi everyone, I have been working on a project to track the actual cost of supplements in India. Since it's easy to get distracted by limited time deals, I started calculating the **price per gram** of powder across different brands to see who is actually offering value. I have put all the data here: [ValueLens](https://valuelens.in/) **What's covered so far:** * **Protein:** (Whey, Soy and Plant-based) * **Weight Gainers:** Cost efficiency per gram * **Creatine & Pre-workouts:** Comparing raw weight costs I'm trying to make this as transparent as possible for the India Sports and Fitness Community. Are there any specific brands you're using that I should add ...

I launched Vault Training Club (vaulttrainingclub.ai) a few weeks back. It’s an AI-powered personal training app covering workouts, meal plans, and nutrition tracking. Built it solo using AI-accelerated development (Claude Code + SwiftUI for iOS, React web app, .NET backend on Azure). Downloads are trickling in but I want to tighten up the listing. Here’s what I’ve got: Subtitle: AI-Powered Workouts, Meals & Tracking Keywords I’m targeting: AI personal trainer, workout planner, meal plan, nutrition tracker, food diary, calorie counter, fitness app, macro tracking My app store images are attached happy to take feedback, looking for some help in what I could change to mak...

I’m 32F and have been trying to clean up my eating the last few months, mostly for gut health and energy. I eat pretty decent on weekdays, but I’m still super irregular and get that gross bloat-by-3pm thing. This came up again last weekend when I was venting to my sister over brunch and she was like, “Girl, just get your fiber sorted first.” I’ve been reading stuff late at night since then and keep seeing things like “\[fiber supplement powder for women\](https://regulargirl.com/)” specifically, plus multivitamins aimed at women’s energy/immune system, etc. Part of me feels like I should just fix it with food and not rely on powders, could be wrong though. But I work long ...

Ended at 1296 cals today and feeling pretty satisfied! macros could be better. I’m vegetarian and have pcos. i’m having a hard time lowering my carbs and adding more protein. any tips? (p.s. i work at a restaurant hence the 1/8th serving of fries… i stole a couple from the fry catch oops..)

Nutrition is actually pretty simple. Eat good food → good ( don’t expect miracles ) Eat bad food → bad ( but you won’t drop dead by tomorrow ) Don’t eat → lose weight Eat a lot → gain weight Bad genetics → still fat, fat-shaped head, fat frame, skinny body. Eat perfectly or don’t, doesn’t matter much. Actually worse. Good genetics → eat whatever, stay regular built. Life’s unfair, deal with it. That’s ITTTTT. Nobody needs to hear “track your macros, watch your micros, carbs hold water, control your portions, stay under X calories, sweet potato is a superfood, drink this green smoothie for gut health blah blah blah” GARBAGE. All of it. Nutrition has alw...

Most people think getting fit requires a complete life overhaul. Early morning workouts, strict meal preps, expensive supplements — it sounds exhausting before you even start. The truth? Small, consistent habits beat intense, short-lived effort every single time. Here are 5 simple habits you can start today that will have you looking and feeling completely different in just 30 days. 1. Drink 3 Liters of Water Every Day Before you touch a single supplement, fix your water intake. Dehydration causes fatigue, bloating, poor performance, and cravings — basically everything holding your progress back. How to make it easy: ∙ Buy a 1L water bottle and fill it 3 times a day ∙ Drink ...

I've been putting off writing this, but it's been 5 weeks and I'm ready to give my first update. TLDR: Moved out of a moldy apartment and took some supplements and I have gone from mod-severe to moderate. Saw improvement 3 days after moving. Background: I got the flu in early 2020 and have never been the same. I went from being super active, hitting the gym several times a week and hiking 8+ miles on the weekends, to being winded just walking around my hilly job site. I almost didn't go on the hike I got engaged on because I was too tired. This was the start of my MECFS/POTS journey. I remained mild and just thought I was depressed/ burnout for years. It wasn'...

1. I wasn’t overweight because I ate too much… I was eating the wrong combinations. 2. Low-calorie but high-craving foods kept me stuck in a loop. 3. I started building meals that actually kept me full for hours. 4. Protein + fiber = game changer. I stopped feeling the need to snack every 2 hours. 5. Also realized liquid calories were sabotaging me silently. 6. Cut those down, didn’t even feel like a sacrifice. 7. More food… but smarter food. 8. That’s when the scale started moving again.

I’ve been trying to find a protein powder that actually tastes good (not just “drinkable”), and I’m overwhelmed by all the options. I don’t really care about fancy branding. I just want something that: * Tastes good (no weird aftertaste) * Mixes well (not chalky) * Doesn’t feel like a chore to drink every day I’ve seen some popular ones like Optimum Nutrition, MyProtein, Dymatize, etc., but opinions seem all over the place. From what I’ve read, some people say certain flavors are amazing while others say the same brand tastes terrible 😅 >“Even the best-tasting whey protein may taste awful… it’s really personal preference.” So I’m curious: * What’s...

Worried about not eating enough.. thinking about food makes me sick and when I do eat, 2 bites is enough for me. I feel like im getting less than 800 calories in a day. I even struggle to drink a protein shake and get super full from it. What did yall do about this loss of appetite and nausea??

Paywalling the basics and stuffing the rest with ads broke calorie tracking. Imagine having to pay to simply scan a barcode... Every calorie app seemed to have a different failure mode: * the basics were buried behind a subscription * the free tier was full of ads * the app wanted an account before I could even try it * the “smart” metabolism math sounded better than it worked So I started building Onyx Tenet, a calorie and macro tracker that tries to take the opposite stance: * adaptive TDEE * no ads * no account required for core tracking * offline-first The part that surprised me is how many “simple” things turned out to be fake-simple. Adaptive TDEE was the best example. Th...

So I found this hamster in the trash 😭 I stopped on the side of the road to pick up a free (10 gallon) tank for my isopods and when I got home I found this hamster in it. It wasn’t dead. She is so sweet and I couldn’t find anyone to take it so I did the same thing anyone else would do, I researched to figure out that it’s a young Syrian hamster and how to care for it. Lots of info. I drug in a leaky 90 gallon aquarium (48”x18” and 24” tall) (I keep fish) and spent the next few days not guilt tripping my husband into keeping it. He forgot about my birthday coming up and now I have a pet hamster. I named her Millie. That’s about $50 of bedding in there and so she’s got t...

To start; I'm grossly obese, I've been overweight my whole life and have never developed healthy eating habits. I'm 32 years old and roughly 450 lbs, I work in an office job from home so I do very little movement through the day. Aside from the obvious- eat healthy and move around more, ive been tracking my food intake for the last week making conscious decisions. I entered my information into myfitnesspal and based on that info it recommended I eat roughly 3600 calories, 170g protein, 400g carbs and 100g fat. Those numbers seem so impossibly high, that if I were able to hit them I dont see any world where I lose weight. The last 2 weeks I've been consuming between 18...

Hello! I wanted to share part of my story and how it might help you in your possible struggles with gastritis, as well as add some positivity to a subreddit that can often be gloomy. I got diagnosed with gastritis back in the summer, and it went away naturally. Then, after taking antibiotics for 2 months for an unrelated issue, it came back. And I had no idea what to do. I tried waiting it out like the previous time and it wasn’t working. I saw a GI and their answer was pretty much take PPIs and call back in a year. After a few weeks of desperation, I found a wholistic specialist who also has a standard medical practice close to where I live (central FL). He offered two tests initially for...

I’m 21M dealing with a serious issue and I don’t know what’s going on with my body. I get sick around 3–4 times a month. Usually it starts with a sore throat (sometimes after eating cold food/drinks, sometimes randomly), then it turns into infection + fever and takes 4–5 days to recover. This cycle keeps repeating. Even when I’m not sick, I constantly feel: Fatigue / low energy Headaches Body weakness (feels like anemia) Difficulty concentrating Lifestyle: Sleep: 10–12 hours at night + 2–4 hours daytime sleep Diet: eggs + protein + multivitamins, but also a lot of junk food Water intake: low Stress: constant overthinking about life Masturbation: 3–4 times a day ...

**You gain muscle with carb cycling by eating more carbs on training days to fuel workouts and trigger glycogen replenishment, then dropping carbs on rest days to keep fat gain minimal. This rotation gives your body the anabolic stimulus it needs from carbohydrates without the chronic calorie surplus that piles on body fat.** I spent my first five years as a nutritionist telling people carb cycling was strictly a fat-loss tool. I was wrong. The same insulin manipulation that strips body fat also creates the exact hormonal window muscles need to grow. Hundreds of clients later, I've watched skinny-fat beginners and experienced lifters alike put on lean tissue using timed carbohydrate ro...

Can someone please suggest good whey protein, creatine and protein oats brands. So mostly i bring my supplements from India because its cheaper than what i find in Bangladesh. Last time i got nakpro perform and im really disappointed because both packets were damaged upon arrival and amazon didnt even acknowledge it, instead they banned my amazon account. I have also seen reviews later, showing that alot of people also received damaged products from nakpro. So please suggest a brand thats good and isn't super overpriced. Thank you.
