Title: High calorie foods?
Post by: joej627 on June 12, 2012, 01:20:55 am

Hey guys,

Doing a lot of healing/cleansing.  Body going through a lot of calories.  Trying to stick with everything but having trouble finding healthy high-calorie snacks for when I'm needing a lot of fuel.  So far, good options seem like

-raw nut butters
-raw eggs
-avocados/other fats
-steamed root veggies with good fats

My body does not need any more protein and i can only do so much with the rare animal foods.

Any favorites?

-Joe

Find some grass fed beef suet, back fat or bone marrow. Cut them into small pieces and treat as a finger food. Those foods are about as calorie dense as you're going to get. Nuts, regardless of how you process them, have a lot of anti-nutrients and don't strike me as something useful in the context of detoxification.

thanks slim, but sometimes the body requires high amounts of calories also.  Just trying to find some better alternatives
