Protein: 13.32 g
Carbohydrate: 34.13 g
Fiber: 9 g
Fats: 29.72 g
Calories: 430

▶️ RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (12 bars)

150g Almond – 1 cup
100g Walnuts – 1 cup
130g Pumpkin seeds – 1 cup
50g Goji Berry – 1/2 cup
350g Pitted SOFT Dates (Jelly Like) – 2 heaping cups
1 Cup Smooth Almond Butter (265g) OR Nut Butter of Choice (preferably unsalted)
1/4 Teaspoon Salt (I have added pink Himalayan salt)
1/2 Tablespoon Ground Cinnamon OR to taste

Square Pan: 9 X 9 X 2 Inch (23 X 23 X 5 cm)

▶️ METHOD:

Start by toasting the almonds for about 2 minutes on medium heat, then add the walnut and pumpkin seeds to it and toast for another 2 minutes. Once toasted immediately remove from heat and transfer it to a heat proof plate and allow to to completely cool down. this will prevent the nuts from burning.

Now add the dates and almond butter to a food processor and blend it well and then add the toasted nuts, goji berry, ground cinnamon and salt. Blend it to a coarse mixture.

▶️ PROTEIN/ENERGY BARS:
Prepare a pan by brushing the bottom and side walls with oil and line it with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture into the pan and press it with a spoon to pack it firmly. Take your time as it is REALLY important to press it firm, especially the corners – this will prevent any air gaps and prevent the bars from crumbling while cutting. Smooth out the surface.

Now cover it with plastic wrap and let it chill and set in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours.
Once it has set remove from the pan and cut it into desired shape with a sharp knife. Make sure to clean the knife with paper towel in between cuts this will keep the cuts clean.

After cutting it wrap it individually in plastic wrap or parchment paper and store it in the refrigerator. This stores well in the fridge for 3 to 4 weeks.

▶️ PROTEIN/ENERGY BALLS:
Take two tablespoons of the mixture and press it between palms of your hand until firm and formed into a ball. Then smooth out the surface. You can store it as is in an air tight container or wrap it individually in a plastic wrap or parchment paper.

▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:

– As soon as the nuts/seeds/dates are toasted remove it from the heat and transfer it to a plate to cool down. This will prevent it from burning. DO NOT leave it in the hot pan.

– Use SOFT dates only

– If the mixture gets too dry and difficult to bind add some more almond butter

– sometimes nuts/seeds/dates are dryer than usual and may need more binding. The fix is to increase the amount of almond butter so that it sticks together. Just empty the mixture into a bowl, add some almond butter mix it thoroughly until it starts sticking together and then transfer it back to the mold, press the mixture again and refrigerate

– (Optional) Brushing the pan with oil will prevent the mixture from sticking to the sides

– It’s really important that you take the time to press the mixture properly in the pan until firm especially the corners. This will prevent the bars from crumbling while cutting

– To keep the cuts clean, clean the knife with paper towel in between cuts

– You can shape the mixture into balls, if you do not want to make bars

Enjoy!

One of the most common questions I get is, ‘What are the best supplements to build muscle? There’s a ton of misinformation out there when it comes to the best supplements for muscle building and strength. In this video I’ll share the 4 best supplements that are worth considering to build muscle faster.

There are 3 main reasons why whey protein powder can be considered one of the most effective muscle building supplements available. First off, it’s typically very low in fat and carbs and instead very high in protein content, which makes it very calorie and macro friendly when compared to other protein sources. Second, it’s convenient and can be used in many different ways to both save you time and add some more life into your diet. And lastly, it’s actually quite affordable when viewed at a price per gram basis, with the average cost of whey protein being comparable to that of chicken breast. This all just makes it easier for you to consistently reach the optimal daily protein intake that otherwise can be a struggle to hit, which is exactly how protein powder can indirectly speed up your growth.

Next is creatine, which, of all the supplements for muscle growth available, is probably the most well researched and science-backed one. Whenever we lift weights we use something called ATP, the main energy source for our muscles. As we lift, we deplete these ATP stores to the point where we can no longer perform anymore reps. This is where creatine comes in. It improves our strength and muscle endurance by facilitating a faster regeneration of ATP and enabling us to perform that extra rep or two or lift slightly more weight during our workouts. There does seem to be quite a bit of variation with regards to the response to creatine, though. Also, note that creatine doesn’t simply do the work for you. The benefits you get from supplementing with it only apply if you’re actually pushing yourself harder in your workouts as a result.

Next is caffeine (pre workout), arguably one of the best muscle building supplements. Caffeine ingestion prior to our workouts not only enhances our muscle contractions, but can also enable us to perform more reps by altering our pain thresholds and our perception of how hard we’re working. That said, those who consume caffeine on a regular basis tend to see somewhat of a blunted response to its ergogenic effects. So, what I’d recommend to avoid developing a caffeine tolerance too quickly. Reserve its use for workouts where you’ll reap the most benefit from it. For example, lower body workouts, early morning workouts, or days where you just need that extra kick.

For the final of the top supplements for building muscle, internationally renowned fitness expert and researcher Dr. Brad Schoenfeld adds beta-alanine to the list. When supplemented, beta-alanine facilitates increases in muscle carnosine levels. Carnosine acts as a hydrogen ion buffer. This is important for activities such as resistance training, sprinting, and other anaerobic forms of exercise, as there is a substantial buildup of lactic acid that occurs, which ultimately impairs performance. The buffering action of carnosine can help to delay fatigue from the associated hydrogen ion accumulation (acidosis) and thus enable performance of additional work (e.g. reps during lifting). It can, therefore, ultimately enhance muscle-building capacity. However, there is a fairly large degree of inter-individual variability.

So, hopefully you now know the answer to ‘What are the best supplements to build muscle?’ and you were able to see that supplements are not magic. You still need to put in the work and even then, they aren’t extremely effective. But, the little boosts you do get from each of these supplements can add up to a meaningful difference overtime, especially when you then pair this with the right training and nutrition program. And for a step-by-step program that uses science to guide you week after week with your training, your nutrition, and even your supplementation, so that you can truly maximize your results, then simply take the analysis quiz to discover which science-based program would be best for you and where your body is currently at below:

Could eating a diet based on your blood type — O, A, B, or AB — help you trim down and get healthier? That’s the idea behind the Blood Type Diet, created by naturopath Peter J. D’Adamo.

D’Adamo claims that the foods you eat react chemically with your blood type. If you follow a diet designed for your blood type, your body will digest food more efficiently. You’ll lose weight, have more energy, and help prevent disease.

How to improve your health? Many people need a helping hand to stay as healthy as possible in today’s fast-paced, digital world.

That’s where Dáithi O’Connor’s business Revive Active steps in: with specialist supplements designed for healthier living.

During a ProfileTree interview, designed to explore how we can all feel healthier and fitter during our day-to-day lives, Dáithi explained how supplementation can make a very real difference to modern living.

The Revive Active Founder and Managing Director began by outlining how his childhood  helped him start his journey to creating a successful health product business.

“I’m originally from Sligo, the youngest of six boys, so I got my survival skills early!

“I always worked as kid: I used to go salmon fishing, lobster fishing, pulling pints and things like that, so I’ve always had a work ethic.”

He also explained the ethos followed by Revive Active with the aim of keeping ahead of their competitors.

“Revive Active is both a company and a brand and is also the name of our original product. We’ve always tried to instil trust in the brand, we’ve looked at every product that’s on the market and tried to make products that are better for the consumer and deliver the most amount of benefits to the consumer.

“For us they are number one, the product has to be the best and we pull in whatever expertise we need to formulate the best product.”

To demonstrate how supplementation can make a real difference to a person’s everyday life, Dáithi gave the example of the benefits of taking L-arginine “if you’re in business or you’re exercising or you just want to feel healthier and protect your heart”.

“You simply feel so much better, everything improves.”

He explained that Revive Active had worked hard to make sure their products could be used by as many as people as possible.

“We went to a lot trouble with how we sourced our ingredients to make sure they’d be covered under the Vegan/ Vegetarian stamp. A lot of people are diabetic, or borderline diabetic, so we wanted to make sure we have no processed sugars.

“Quite a lot of people are coeliac, and don’t even know they are coeliac, so there are the restrictions they have on the food they can eat and that’s important too.”

Dáithi experienced pointed out that “in every business the challenges and opportunities come in equal measure”, using Brexit to illustrate this effect.

“We have contract manufacturers in Wales so we’ll be able to supply the UK. We have 50 retailers in London who are very good supporters of ours, people like Selfridges or John Bell & Croyden, and we sell online all over the UK.

“If it happened that there were customs and tariffs we don’t want to be involved with that. So if we can have two identities and service those two markets that’s what we hope to do.”

Revive Active also plan to launch their Zest Active brand in the US, specifically New York and Boston, in July 2019.

Over the past decade, numerous studies have shown that many Americans have low vitamin D levels and as a result, vitamin D supplement use has climbed in recent years. Vitamin D has been shown to boost bone health and it may play a role in preventing diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular disease and other illnesses. In light of the increased use of vitamin D supplements, Mayo Clinic researchers set out to learn more about the health of those with high vitamin D levels. They found that toxic levels are actually rare.
Their study appears in the May issue of Mayo Clinic Proceedings. For more information, see the Mayo Clinic News Network: http://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/
