Almonds?

[HaRdWoRkInG]

I just ordered some almonds to use as a bedtime snack along with a casein shake. Is this a good idea? I figured it is because almonds have higher levels of monounsatured fat, which I've read will help raise testosterone levels.

almonds are great.

the only problem is eating just one or two servings. I usually end up eating the whole bag.

 

[HaRdWoRkInG]

Yea. I know what you mean. I ordered a 454 gram bag, which is the equivelent of 1 lb if I remember correctly. That's a lot of nuts. I'll just have to be strong and only allow myself to eat the amount I've allotted myself to.

What is a serving of almonds like 11 pieces?

Which is like nothing!

 

[tucker01]

I eat that in one mouthful

shouldn't it say "had" and not "have"...either that or, if you are going to leave "have" you neet to change "kept" to "keep".

haha, foolish Canuck.

lol!!! I don't know but he was a funny dude. I wonder what happened to him?

The serving on my bag is about 1/4 cup. This is about 20 or so. So am I using to many? This is about 17 grams of fat.

Isn't he living in AZ? or did he move back east?

no, go with what the bag says. We were just taking a shot in the dark as far as guessing the serving size.

 

[P-funk]

Isn't he living in AZ? or did he move back east?

moved back east. he said he hated it out here and told me not to move.

I see.....I was going to say 11 or 12 of those sure would be tough to stop at.

So 17g of fat is about right?

I guess so??

I don't have a bag infront of me to be certain.

 

[Double D]

Ian? You seem to know alot about this.

One cup according to nutritiondata is 73G of fat.

 

[P-funk]

One cup according to nutritiondata is 73G of fat.

73/4 = 18.25g of fat per 1/4 cup serving for those of you counting at home.

 

[Double D]

I use 1/4 cup which is about 17 according to the bag. Is this about what I should be eating? I would assume yes. i am on a cut and a good amount of fat like that before bed should be good, yes/no?

 

[tucker01]

As long as it fits into you macros and cal totals it is fine.

 

[Double D]

Alrighty, that was the answer I figured you'd say.
