Steak=bad?

[john917v]

I eat a steak and fries at work each night for dinner. I've heard that that much steak can be bad. It's about a 6-8 oz steak, I'd say. At regular weight, I'd say I'm about 220 lbs. Does this steak a day sound bad?

[Ross86]

No. I eat much worse.

Is it a lean cut of steak? Either way, you'll be fine. Make sure you're getting plenty of fiber in your diet if it worries you.

It tastes great and is a good source of protein and natural creatine. However, it takes more work to digest and eating too much can cause g.i. problems. I would suggest alternating with chicken.

[john917v]

Oh. I've heard about the uric acid-buildup, or something like that. It's a pretty lean cut.

Beastmaster, good to see a new member, welcome!

I dont' think a 6-8oz steak once a day will hurt you. The fries on the other hand... are probably alot worse.

Is it ok that i eat 1kg of low fat ground beef each day??

[Pitysister]

yes....but do you have any variety of your proteins...or is it just beef all day everyday?

[mad matt]

I guess its just beef all day, is that bad??

[Pitysister]

variety is always good.

I shall get some fish and eggs in there, cant do chicken at the moment, gone right off it..
