It is a well known fact nowadays that your build muscle diet is a critically important component of your total fitness regime that will determine the degree of your bodybuilding success. If your diet is substandard and lacking in key nutrients and food types, regardless of how hard you train you won’t gain the muscle mass and definition you desire.
Let’s review a few simple but essential rules to follow to design and implement a superb build muscle diet, and then we’ll uncover some of the very best quality and targeted foods for building muscle mass. Here are some quick guidelines for a diet to build muscle:
1. Consume 6-7 quality, well-planned meals per day to sustain a high metabolism and avoid glycemic spikes. This will make it much easier for you to metabolize the required amount of calories in order for you to gain muscle mass. Also, it will ensure your body has high energy levels throughout the entire day to fight fatigue, maintain an elevated mood and assist recovery and muscle repair.
2. Your build muscle diet should consist of roughly 50% carbohydrates, 30% proteins, and 20% fats. This [...]

Researchers do not know the exact cause of typical migraine headaches, and it is almost certain that there are multiple causes, some genetic and some environmental. Some theories discussed irritation or injury to the trigeminal nerve; imbalances in important brain chemicals and neurotransmitters such as serotonin; or an imbalance in certain minerals such as magnesium.
We do know that there are a number of different environmental triggers which can cause a migraine headache. These triggers can cause a migraine in people who are genetically prone to migraines, yet not in others.
Fluctuations in estrogen levels appear to cause migraines headaches in some women who have known predisposition to them. Women sometimes report migraine headaches immediately before or during their periods, when there is a large decrease in the amount of estrogen circulating in the blood. Other women have shown an increase in the number of migraine headaches during pregnancy or menopause, which again would point to a hormonal imbalance.
Given this information, women who suffer from migraine headaches should consider supplementing with hormones such as pregnenolone and progesterone, which are estrogen precursors and are known to help women with certain problems related to hormonal imbalances such as PMS.

Whey Protein
Whey is a great source of protein and has a high biological value (BV).

A high BV means that the amino acid ratio in the formula is bioavailable and excellent for building muscle and that a large percentage of the protein consumed is in a form readily absorbed and utilized by the body. In addition, numerous studies from reputable scientific journals have shown that whey protein and colostrum have immune-system enhancing benefits as well.
Whey is a dairy protein that is a by-product of the cheese making process. Before it is processed, whey contains large amounts of fat and lactose (milk sugar), not exactly what you want to ingest to build lean muscle mass. That’s why it is filtered and processed: to remove most of the lactose and fat. If you’ve ever heard of microfiltration or “ion exchange,” you’ll know they are methods of separating the fat and lactose from the protein in order to purify it for fitness purposes.
The end result is a more concentrated protein for sports performance and muscle-building – either concentrate or isolate. Whey protein isolate and whey protein powder concentrate are two alternatives on the market to be considered when seeking [...]
