My Thoughts: this article was very persuasive and informing on using types of protein powder. the chart that helped me had shown me how much protien to consume everyday.160 / 2.2 = 72.72 Kg, 15% x 72.72 = 10.91 Kg,72.72 –10.91 = 61.81 Kg – Lean body weight measured in Kg 61.81 x 2.75 = 169.97 grams per daySo our 160lb man at 15% body fat would require about 170 grams of protein each day to gain muscle.

The truth is that the consequences of this type of eating can turn up in unexpected ways, often years later as toxins accumulate in your body and cause serious illnesses like cancer or diabetes.

December 3, 2012 - Truth Out It's time for fundamental changes to our nation's toxic food system. The vast majority of what we eat, and where we buy what we eat, is controlled by just a handful of gigantic corporations that are far more interested in turning profits by leading droves of American consumers to the genetically-modified feeding troughs. The issue is not whether Americans have access to enough food to eat. With a McDonalds and Taco Bell on nearly every street corner in Anytown, USA, there is no shortage of consumable fast food. The issue, however, is whether or not Americans have access to enough quality food like fresh fruits and vegetables to eat – the sort of food that, when digested in high volumes, won’t slowly kill us... http://truth-out.org/news/item/13145-fast-food-slow-death
