Book Reviews of Macrobolic Nutrition: Priming Your Body to Build Muscle & Burn Fat
Book Review: Best Book On Sports/Exercise Nutrition
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a must for anyone who wants to build muscle,lose fat or just improve general health. The book is based on eating macro's in the ratio of 45/35/20 (carbs/protein/fats) because this helps manipulate your own body's muscle building and fat burning hormones. It is called the 'Lean Mass Equation'.
If you do not choose to follow this ratio then you can still get this book and find it a good read, it has plenty of information about nutrition that you can use for yourself and incorporate it in to your own diet. It tells you all about each of the macro's and how they work within the body and their role. It also gives you good lists of the best sources of them.
I had previously bought the Franco Columbo's book on nutrition and this left me with a lot of unanswered questions whereas this has answered them all for me and more!
It also gives you a simple formula for working out your nutritional intake for your goals.
A really great book, only down side is that at the end it goes in to his own supplements and why they are the best but this does not distract you from the rest of the book so you can just simply skip that chapter.
5+ Stars easy!
