Rene Aafjes Professor Alyson Barrett Library 1210-06 March 15th 2015 The Power of Paleo for CrossFit Athletes The ‘Paleolithic’ (“paleo”) diet otherwise known as the ‘Caveman’ diet is a diet based on the food eaten by early humans. The diet consists of meat, fish, vegetables, fruit and nuts. Grains, dairy products, food with high starch and processed foods are completely eliminated. CrossFit is a strength and conditioning program, which mixes Olympic weight lifting, aerobic exercise, gymnastics, body weight exercises done at high intensities. The paleo diet is successful for cross fit athletes because the branched-chain amino acids found in meat and fish can rapidly reverse the breakdown of muscle fibre occurring post workout, resulting in quicker recovery time before the next workout.

High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) was introduced back in the 1970’s and quickly filled the demand within the soft drink industry. Sodas depended heavily on the sugar cane as a natural sweetener; unfortunately it was unstable and volatile. HFCS provided consistency and was easily accessible when it was introduced and financially made more sense when compared to the unsteady cost of sugar. Before you knew it, HFCS found its way into foods and was no longer just for the soft drink industry. Today, HFCS can be found in just about every food product that you can think of.
Cody Laskaris Mr. Brathol Athletic Training 5-13-12 Creatine Creatine has become a popular nutritional supplement among athletes. “Creatine is a compound that's involved in the production of energy in the body, in the form of adenosine triphosphate. Made in the liver, approximately 95% of the body's creatine ends up being stored in skeletal muscles and the remaining 5% is found in the brain, heart, and testes. Once it's used, creatine is converted to a waste product called creatinine and excreted in urine” (Creatine). It was first discovered in 1835, when a French scientist named Chevreul discovered a component of skeletal muscle that he later named creatine- after the Greek word for flesh.

Soy milk is high in protein, and because it is made from beans, also contains considerably more fiber than cow's milk. Besides the extra protein and fiber, the biggest benefit in soy milk are the “isoflavones”. Isoflavones are actually chemicals similar to the hormone estrogen. Isoflavones are believed to prevent a number of health issues, with the most beneficial being the prevention of many cancers, heart disease, and
Some examples for drinking milk is good: government guidelines for healthful eating have for many years perpetuated the idea that milk is a part of a balanced diet. And milk is also identified as a recommended food group in the U.S. Department of Agriculture food guide. Vietnam is in the group of 20 countries that import milk the most (about 1,2 million tons a year). 70% is dry milk powder, used as an ingredient for milk conversion. Obviously, milk consumption in Vietnam is very large.
