    Prawns, can you eat too many?

    Are there any dangers associated with eating too many Prawns or other types off shellfish? (I would currently eat 2 1/2 to 3 lbs per week)

    Cheers

    Yes.. But it is the same with eggs - it is not really a problem unless you have a genetic predisposition to hugely high levels of cholesterol.

    Otherwise eat up - the are an excellent source of lean protein.

    doesn't matter. genetics determines whether or not you will have high total cholesterol values, diet only has a small effect.

    cholesterol is cholesterol. remember it is the carrier of the cholesterol that makes the difference, high-density lipoproteins(HDL) = Good, low-desnity lipoproteins(LDL)=Bad.
    I train differently than most, my beef is with gravity the weights on the bar are just the medium...Thanks to Wall Street your slice of the American Pie has been reduced to a crumb.

    Not entirely true actually start with Chliomicrons VLDL, LDL, and HDL. Genetics does play a part but it is actualy your diet because that affects the amount of four different types of lipase in your body. you body then in turn uses there lipases turning Vldl and ldl into HDL that is where diet and antioxidants come in. While we are at we should also tell everyone that there wieght is Genetic as well when in actual reality if you have a 100% genitic condition for weight only 13% of your body weight is due to genetics. it is only harder for them to loose weight that already gained not there DNA makes them fat. Same with cholestoral if you eat like shit when you are younger and have a ton ldl then you are screwed when you are older because you now have to play catch up the the HDL. Exactly the same as purposley lifting yourself into injury by not havinga plan.....just plain dumb.
