PROTEIN FOODS Locations

idk it's like a science experiment to me finding ways to make my favorite foods taste atleast half as good but with half the calories. i love to cook and finding ways to cut calories in my favorite foods without it tasting bad is genuinely exciting to me lol ive had some good recipe that i actually end up preferring or no longer crave the higher fat/caloric/ sugar version but ive also failed on a lot. i know people are mixed on this sub on this topic and i've seen a lot of **** for things like cauliflower being used to replace many things but you just have to season it well and my brain is satisfied enough to care about the difference especially when i'm actively trying to ...

Our 6 month old kitty (We’ve had for 2 of those months) has had diarrhea for about a day and a half now. It gets on his tail and he smears it everywhere… it’s a whole nightmare. We’ve had him since november and he’s eaten the same thing every day, no diet change recently (Purina One kitten formula kibble + sheba kitten wet food, if we don’t have sheba he’ll get a temptations puree topper just to make him excited about the kibble). Is a bland diet of just like cooked chicken or something okay for him for the next couple meals? I just don’t want him missing out on important kitten recipe nutrition or anything. First time cat owner here - when our dog gets tummy troubles we give...

I had a Pacific Parrotlet for years who sadly passed away a bit over a year ago and a younger Green Cheek Conure who is still with us. I have been keeping an eye out on local adds for a small parrot companion so my GCC stays a bit more involved and a few months back I found a very young peach faced Lovebird on Craigslist that desperately needed a new home. Holy **** I had no idea Lovebirds and Parrotlets are so alike! Even as someone with a biology degree I have NO idea how this works as apparently they are not closely related as Parrotlets and Conures are New World Parrots and Lovebirds old Old World Parrots. Yet you would SERIOUSLY think the Lovebird and Parrotlet are first cousins and th...

hey y’all, i was doing really well and had lost 5lbs since i started. and then the past week or two, i’ve been having migraines and work has been super stressful. i completely fell off. i feel like eating all the time and i’m eating stuff that’s carb heavy and low in protein. i also have ADHD so it can be difficult to force myself to eat if it’s not something that currently sounds good. i was just getting to a point where i had some meals kind of memorized and wasn’t needing to weigh my food as much. however, it’s back to the drawing board. as everyone, i’m going between feeling motivated and feeling like **** it. does anyone want to offer any encouragement or thoughts? th...

Background story: I'm assembling a Calories Counting and Macro/micro tracking spreadsheet (I found phone Apps to not be to my liking) so I asked AI to link me to a list with confirmed RDIs of micro's. It told me to look at [Vitamins and Minerals • The Nutrition Source](https://nutritionsource.hsph.harvard.edu/vitamins/) However, when I compare the thresholds listed there as compared to to what's on the packaging of Huel Complete Protein UU, several micros differ, some even quite significantly (unless I'm making some huge calculation errors in several places). For example, when I use the data on the packaging of CP UU, if drinking 6 shakes a day, 15 of the 26 micros ...

howdy! 30M starting weight 281lbs current weight 195lbs started mounjaro August of 2025 currently on 12.5mg injections weekly there's a lot of great info on this subreddit but most of it has to do with the medication side of maintenance and less to do with how to approach food. my biggest concern.. as for what my diet has been like in the past 5-6 months, I eat roughly 1200-1500 calories a day fairly strict, 120-150g of protein, and no cheating as far as sweets or sodas (outside of diet or 0 cal soda) I've lost a very consistent 3lbs a week since the very beginning which is great for me 12-15lbs a month is awesome, I feel great but now that I'm approaching my goal weight...

Full disclosure that I’m a meat eater (plz don’t come for me 🥲) but I’m having to eliminate dairy and eggs from my diet due to my breastfeeding baby having allergies. I love vegetables though and am open to more plant protein - I cook a lot of bean forward meals anyway just for cost and nutrition reasons - so I thought here would be a good place to look for meal inspiration! It’s a big and sudden adjustment for me. Breakfast in particular has been challenging with the loss of eggs. I’ve just been rotating out avocado toast or oatmeal (with plant milk) so far.

Alpha‑ketoglutarate (AKG, also called 2‑oxoglutarate) is a central metabolite in the Krebs cycle. Its levels decline with age, and a growing body of research suggests that supplementing with AKG—especially in the more stable, bioavailable calcium‑salt form (Ca‑AKG)—may extend lifespan, improve healthspan, and slow several hallmarks of aging. How AKG May Slow Aging: Key Mechanisms AKG influences aging through multiple interconnected pathways: Mechanism: How AKG acts Energy & metabolism: As a key Krebs‑cycle intermediate, AKG supports mitochondrial ATP production and helps maintain metabolic flexibility (the ability to switch between fuel sources). Epigenetic regula...

Been running the Ninja TB301 through my usual home tests for a couple weeks, same way I size up gear before I’d recommend it to friends. The big sell is BlendSense Technology, and yeah, it’s real in the sense that you can load the pitcher or a cup, press the dial, and it auto-adjusts speed and time without me babysitting it. Still feels a bit like “training wheels” if you already know how to blend, but it does help prevent that half-blended slug in the middle. Blending power is the headline here. That 1800W motor has legit torque, and smoothie results came out properly smooth with frozen berries, spinach, protein powder, and even chia. No gritty bits most of the time, though thicker...

It’s been 3 days since my first 0.25mg dose and I’m down 2.5kg (5.5lbs). I’m worried that this is too rapid of a drop? I was reassured that most of it would be water weight in the first weeks. Anyone else drop this much in only a couple of days?? So far, I continue to be highly active, I am keeping down protein, meals portions have been smaller because I feel full a lot faster. Bowel movements are once a day, and seem to be a normal ratio given my smaller food intake.

Ok, so I spent like 6 months reading neuroscience books and listening to podcast interviews with brain researchers because i was genuinely worried my attention span was ******. Turns out most of us are literally damaging our brains daily without realizing it. Not trying to be dramatic, but the data is wild. this isn't some fear-mongering post; I have pulled this from actual research, neuroscientists like Andrew Huberman, books on neuroplasticity, etc., and honestly, some of this made me rethink my entire routine. The brain is plastic, meaning it constantly rewires itself based on what you do. so every habit either builds it up or tears it down. Here's what i found that's actu...

STUDY FINDS MOST REPUBLICANS ARE CIRCUMCISED TYLENOL ABUSERS New evidence suggests GOP may be ground zero of its own autism panic WASHINGTON, D.C. — In what researchers are calling a “statistically hilarious” breakthrough, a new study has found that the overwhelming majority of Republican voters are both circumcised and have engaged in prolonged Tylenol use, raising immediate questions about why the party continues blaming those exact things for autism. The study, published this week in the Journal of Vibes-Based Epidemiology, analyzed over 4.7 million Republican social media comments, CPAC attendees, and pickup truck window decals, concluding that most Republicans appear to be circu...

The Trump administration’s newly released Dietary Guidelines for Americans are already drawing sharp criticism across large parts of the food industry, even as meat and dairy groups applaud the changes. The updated guidelines scrap the traditional food pyramid, emphasizing: * Meat, dairy, and animal protein * Healthy fats * Fruits and vegetables * 2–4 daily servings of whole grains, while eliminating refined grains entirely That shift has created clear winners, and vocal opponents. # Where the backlash is coming from Grain industry groups argue the guidance sidelines affordability and nutrition realities. The Grain Foods Foundation says refined and enriched grains still play a criti...

Working with a PT to Go over my Programme/form every now and then. He recommended to use a Mineral Complex as a supplement and Protein powder but Said Creatine was Not Necessary as I am a Woman and we are Not looking for Crazy Big changes. And Yes, while I do Not do a proper bulk and just want to feel good and strong, I Wonder where This „Creatine is Not Necessary“ is Coming from. I understand it is sth fairly Basic and now after one year of training I would really like to try. Can anyone think of a Reason to Not Take it? Will ask him again when we have our Next Session but want to go there with more reasons for why I should Take it or a better Knowledge based on your Experience

My roommate is insane for food waste, it makes me so upset Rant: For context, I guess im projecting since I grew up in poverty so thats on me. However my (30M) roommate orders a major meat order that fills 2 large freezers and the fridge freezer thats pull out full of meat. Im talking steak, chicken breasts, bacon, roasts, hams, whole chickens, lamb, ground beef and pork etc. He is one guy. The meat is all organic and grass fed, super great quality! He has friends over and shares which is kind, but this dude eats out 4x a week and wastes that food, then he has all this protein in the house he rarely cooks and its gone to the point that whole cases have gone rancid and or became watery when...

My son will be 6 next month, he’s level 3 with suspected ARFID. His diet consists of bread, pasta, cheese, fruit, yogurt, pancakes/waffles, protein bars/protein shakes, peanut butter, pretzels, and muffins/baked goods. He will OCCASIONALLY eat chicken fries. I want to move away from protein bars and try to incorporate some kind of meat or beans into his diet. I’ve been successful sneaking black beans into banana bread but I would love for him to get some actual food besides bread and dairy! He will eat quesadillas, pacakes/waffles, very rarely a peanut butter and jelly, pasta with butter (no sauce), but will not eat any type of meat or sandwiches. Any other parents of kids with similar...

Dried edamame, edamame puffs, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and a few Brazil nuts. 50 grams of protein all dry and glorious. I have my water right beside me so I don’t choke. Ignore the hand sanitizer. That’s not food yet.

I recently stumbled upon what I've found to be the cheapest, most economical way to get large high quality planters that look good (better than my half 55 gallon barrels...) and are food grade/weather resistant. LEFTOVER CATTLE PROTEIN TUBS! Plenty of local farmers in my neck of the woods are selling them for as low as $2-5 each (free if you're lucky!), and they tend to be 22-30 gallons depending on the brand and pound of protein held. I just wanted to get it out there to help any other gardeners out there looking for container solutions! https://preview.redd.it/df9ms6jcgddg1.jpg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=959e41aa020547890107614c5de85744666ea3f2
