BASIC NUTRITIONAL GUIDELINES
By Jamie Hale

Consume an adequate amount of fiber. Fiber sources include vegetables, fruits, and nuts.
My recommendation is at least 30 gms per day.

Consume adequate amounts of water. The recommended intake varies. My recommendation is at least 64 ounces per day. This number would be significantly higher for athletes, fitness enthusiasts and people working in hot environments.

Consume a minimum of 1gm of protein per lb of LBM ( lean body mass ). Intake should be higher in times of calorie restriction and when utilizing low carb diets. Intake should also be higher for athletes and individuals attempting to gain muscle tissue.

Consume complete proteins (meats or animal derived products, or protein supplements containing all the essential amino acids) with each meal.

Consume primarily low Glycemic index carbs as opposed to high Glycemic index carbs. Post workout it is alright to consume higher GI carbs. If choosing high GI carbs at other times consume small amounts or mix with fiber which will lower the GI response. Refer to www.glycemicindex.com

Avoid processed fats and sugars. Beware of the following ingredients high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, partially hydrogenated oils, and trans-fats.

Limit saturated fat intake and processed foods including whole wheat products.

Consume essential fatty acids (essential meaning they must come from diet because your body does not make adequate amounts necessary for optimum functioning and health). Salmon, cod, walnuts are a few foods that contain essential fatty acids in fair quantities. I would recommend a fish oil supplement containing EPA and DHA.

After dieting for 4 weeks take 2-3 days off and follow a modern eating plan ( lean active people). After dieting 6-8 weeks take 2-3 days off and follow a modern eating plan ( heavier less active individuals)

When consuming breads and cereals choose whole grains. Beware of foods displaying whole wheat. Whole wheat does not necessarily mean good.

Generally, it is necessary to consume calorie levels exceeding maintenance level when attempting to gain weight. Generally, it is necessary to consume less calories than maintenance when attempting to lose weight.
