Here is a list of foods that I share with the people on my forum. People are always asking questions on what are good sources of proteins, carbs, fats, etc...and the list below will help you determine that. All of the foods listed are good clean foods that everyone should consider adding to their list of things to eat.

Of course there are many other healthy foods you can consume so if you have questions on a food that you do not see listed, feel free to post and ask if would be considered a good clean food as this list will be updated on a frequent basis.

If you have questions on the macronutrient breakdown of the foods, here are a few good sites that will help you determine that.

you left Venison off the list for proteins...

Also, why red potatoes and not regular potatoes?

What about yogurt?

A lot of ppl think sardines are gross, but I've loved them for years. I went Beach Cliff's site and got the info, and other than cholesterol it seems to be a relatively clean food. Thinking of using a can every once in a while as a meal protein.

Fat free Yogurt.

and something I just discovered: Greek Yogurt! It has about 20 grams of protein per serving

What would you say is the best all-round carbohydrate.In my house we eat a lot of potatoes,would this be better for my body than rice?

You can use regular white potatoes however I'd suggest sweet or yams if it's going to be a part of your post workout meal.

Is rice better than potatoes for my body(theyre a lot easier to cook)

Is cottage cheese ok??and how about oranges??

Both are fine, yes.

In response to the request for recipes earlier in this thread, one of my stock meals is having boiled chicken breast (boneless/skinless), brown rice cooked in nonfat chicken broth, and a blanched veggie. This admits to a lot of variation (changed boiled to baked, or roasted; change rice to a baked or boiled potato; and just about any veggie can be blanched or steamed) and is very fresh tasting and good for you.

Brown rice is far better then most potatoes. Actually, Potatoes on average have a glycemic rating of 95!
Its ironic that Sweet potatoes have a rating of only 55 (given there name one would think they have a higher GI)

Is fried egg ok occasionly?

I agree with that. That's the first thing I changed in my diet...potatoes, white rice, conventional pasta-all gone. I feel a lot better too. I'm not tired after meals anymore

One item i use for fats that I havent really seen mentioned anywhere is hemp oil. It has a great nutty flavour so its a yummy addition to get your daily fats in
