Q: what is a good dose of b12 injectable for bodybuilding purposes?
i know alot of bodybuilders use b12 inj. but i cant find the dose for it. like how often and how much
ok, so far i havent had any answers im looking for. yes bodybuilders use this because it is a burst of energy but also to help your mood and especialy coming off steroids. what dose is all i need to know

A: B12 has absolutely nothing to do with building muscle. Sublingual B12 is about as effective as injectable. B12 may give you a little more energy…that’s it.

Bodybuilders use a diet high in protein, steroids, ect.

Q: Am I taking too many pills?
i take these in the morning and at night
i take calcium pills
milkthistle pills for liver
cinnimon for muscle recovery
garlic for heart
cla for muscle
b6 and b12 for red blood cell formation
extra zinc and magnesium for higher testosterone levels next day
fish oil for heart and brain
glutamine for muscle recovery
ive been bodybuilding for a couple of years now and i wanna know if what im taking is ok?

A: yes, you dont need milk thistle unless your doctor told you to take it. Theres no need for normal people to take it.

Cinnimon is junk for muscle recovery. You dont need anything for your muscles to recover other then protein. If you workout, take a protein shake. Either way you should have protein in your diet.

Garlic for heart is a waste too.

CLA doesnt do much for muscle or fat loss.

zinc and mag doesnt do much either unless your deficient. The studies of ZMA were paid for by the company making it.

Here is all you need:

Protein shake
Calcium
Multi vitamin
Fish oil
Maybe glutamine

Q: Boosting energy drinks…?
As I am into high intensity exercises and bodybuilding, most of the time before doing my daily exercise routines, i always drink an energy drink called Bison. Its a much lighter type of drink than red bull and yet its just the same in effect.After taking one before exercising, I feel rejuvenated and good to go. My question is, will it damage my liver or kidney if i drink it everyday as the contents of this energy drinks consists of caffeine, taurine, vit b3, b6, b12 and some others?

A: i dont know anything for certain bout energy drinks but…
if you drink a lot of water and the proper workout fluids (gatorade and such) then (especially with lots of water, during the day) youll be flushing anything that you body doesnt want too much of out.

very good question though.

Q: Starting A Vegan Diet…Any Advice?
I’m going vegan.

It’s something I’ve been thinking about for some time now, but I can first remember considering it when I learned of Daniel’s challenge to the king to eat a vegan diet. I recently thought of it again because of my renewed vigor for the spiritual, enlightenment, and harmony…how could I live in harmony with the world when I ate the life in it, especially such tortured life that goes on in our slaughterhouses? Certainly, I would be much more comfortable hunting my own meat, because I could at least ensure that the animal doesn’t live a life of suffering, and that honor and thanks would be given for the life instead of just an electrical zap to the brain and into a vat of boiling water.

What really pushed me over the edge is a book I bought dealing with the diet of people who have fibromyalgia (FM), a syndrome I developed in the Marine Corps. It doesn’t advocate vegetarianism specifically (it mentions fish and also has recipes with meat), but does speak of vegetarian, vegan, and raw diets tested on FM patients, with the greatest results coming from the vegan and raw diets.

So that’s the back story. I have a few questions for you experienced vegans out there…keep in mind that I will not only be on a vegan diet, but a natural diet, so pre-packaged, over-processed, additive-filled animal-free products are off-limits to me.

1. What are any tricks, tips, etc. that you’ve learned/discovered?

2. Do you grow your own food? Where do you live that you do this, and how hard is it? I usually end up killing plants…I don’t have a green thumb. I have heard of little communes where people come together and have a patch of garden, would this be advocated?

3. I come from a bodybuilding background. It died with my diagnosis, but I like to maintain as much muscle as possible. I have already made the switch to soy protein from whey for my post-workout protein shakes. Are there any other ways to ensure that I am getting complete protein? I do know that grain + legume = complete protein.

4. Do you take any supplements? I hear that vitamin B12 is an animal-only supplement. How do you ensure that your supplements are vegan?

5. What does your daily diet look like?

6. I am not specifically looking to lose weight, but especially considering my concern with muscle mass, how much weight am I anticipating to lose? I exercise several times a week (cardio, weights, yoga).

Thank you in advance. Namaste.
cin2win: I should probably have also stated that I will be eating an extremely varied diet that will be rice in various enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Do I still need to worry about hair loss and whatnot?
Thanks, tmkt, for reminding me of my delicious sushi. :(

However, I would prefer specific answers to the questions from everyone who answers. Thanks.
Hypertrophy: It’s funny you mentioned that. I am a huge fan of Indian food, especially admiring how tasty it is without adding a bunch of junk. I have some pre-packaged Indian cuisine for convenience…it’s kosher, vegan, and more, while also providing whole food with no added crap.

A: 1. My vegan journey has been a process. One of the biggest things I learned is to read labels carefully. You never know where dairy/milk derivatives show up. The next piece of advice I can give is to not to be discouraged when you first start out. After being veg for so long and then eliminating cheese, I panicked. I was like, “WHAT can I eat?!” Invest in some good vegan cookbooks for ideas or even borrow them from the library. That’s always a good start.

2. I don’t grow my own food. (I can kill a cactus!) But I do buy it from a small fruit and vegetable mart that buys from local farmers (as opposed to buying from a big grocery chain). It’s nice b/c the fruit and veggies don’t have that “water bath” and there’s still dirt on the produce. I love that.

3. I’m a total gym rat and wanna-be meat head. (LOL). I’m more muscular as a vegan than when I was as an omni. Post-lifting, I drink about 2 soy protein shakes and I eat a high-protein diet during the day (beans, nuts, Clif Bars for snacks, etc.). I’ve been told that soy protein will not get the same results as whey, but I’m rolling right along. The proof is in the pudding. :-) I have no problem building muscle. As a matter of fact, I’m trying to lose some…for you, maintaining should be no problem.

4. The only pills I take are two vitamin E pills daily. I sometimes take a calcium pill but that’s about all. I drink rice milk and eat cereals that are fortified with B-12. The human body only needs small traces of it to begin with and it would take our bodies years to become deficient in it. Eating veg-friendly foods that have B-12 added should be okay.

5. I wake up at 5 am and grab a banana. I drink some water and head to the gym. I come home and eat steel cut oats/oatmeal/cold cereal or whathaveyou and sprinkle ground up flax seeds on top (good source of Omega-3 fatty acids). I have a snack around 10 – baby carrots, an apple, veggie slices and hummus, handful of raw cashews (or Mrs. May’s nut snacks…vegan and SO good!). I eat lunch next and I usually have a large salad, veggie soup or leftovers and a piece of fruit. I have another mid-afternoon snack along the same lines as what I listed above. For dinner I might have black bean and brown rice burritos, spaghetti with tons of garlic, soup and salad, baked sweet potato with quinoa and sauteed veggies, stuffed green peppers, seitan loaf and mashed potatoes, etc. etc. I love food and I’ll try anything at least once.

6. I have been a vegetarian for a few years, but didn’t go vegan until this past January. I had apparently been on a long plateau b/c once I turned vegan, I started losing weight again. I think I’ve lost about 15-20 pounds. I exercise 5-6 days a week – and like you, I do a variety of activities: cardio, weight lifting, yoga/pilates, etc. In January I was probably a 7/8 and now I’m about from a 5/6. It doesn’t sound like much, but none of my clothes fit me. It’s a drastic contrast. Everyone is different…but I do think it’s natural for a vegan to lose some weight. The foods we eat are low-fat, low-cal, high fibre. That is the perfect combination for keeping weight off.
I hope that helps!
