Bodybuilders Creatine Breakfast



Check out the video above for a list of ingredients and basic how to.

There are many ways to take creatine, in water, juice, tea for example. This puts my own take on it, which has served me well so far.

Calories: 600

Carbs:97
Protein: 22
Fat:12

All in all its a standard oat based breakfast, but the flaxseeds add a different flavour, and for those who hate gritty creatine its a perfect solution.

Have your own alternatives? Let me know in the comments section.

Stay safe

Stem Cell Burger - Worlds Leanest Protein?



stem cell burger

So after a long time in a lab in Europe, boffins decided to cook a burger patty which had been grown from the stem cells of a living cow. It all sounds a bit odd, but raises interesting points:

Advantages: 

Far less harmful to the environment in production
Less animal slaughter
Less focus on growing crops for animal feed
Possible alternative meat for vegetarians?

Disadvantages:

Costs £215,000 per burger
Hasn't been properly tested
Apparently tastes a bit different, lacks flavour

Check out my thoughts here:




An interesting point i picked up on, was that as it is grown from the muscle fibres of a cow, it doesnt contain the naturally occuring fats which would be present in a living animal.

Imagine bodybulders getting hold of a chicken breast with no fat or a prime steak with near pure animal protein - I can see the supplement industry going wild for this.
