Another plus is many of the high fiber vegetables out there will fit in perfectly to a traditional body building diet. Personally I stick to Fiber One cereal for the ease of use factor.

2. Good fats, HUFA’s (highly unsaturated fatty acids) are very good for you. In a fat sparing diet you need to consume these fatty acids so your body can function optimally. Your cerebral spinal fluid and cell membranes love the stuff. Depending on what camp your in, I work at a company that focuses on applications for algal derived DHA so I’m bias, the chain of importance goes: DHA > EPA > ARA. There is a ton of info out there so look around and find what’s best for you. I take 3-2 grams of fish oil a day w/ an additional 250-500mg DHA.
