Posted this on another thread but some facts about eggs:
What do eggs have in them?
The whites contain niacin, riboflavin, chlorine, magnesium, potassium, sodium and sulfur.

The yolks With the exception of riboflavin and niacin, the yolk contains a higher proportion of the egg's vitamins than the white. All of the egg's vitamins A, D and E are in the yolk. Egg yolks are one of the few foods naturally containing vitamin D.

Eggs also contain LECITHIN, Calcium, thiamin, folic acid and some good fats.

The yolk also contains more phosphorus, manganese, iron, iodine, copper, and calcium than the white, and it contains all of the zinc. The yolk of a Large egg contains about 59 calories.

Raw eggs are not as nutrious as cooked aggs, same goes for meats and vegetables as well.

silly question maybe but if i run the tuna under the tap whilst crushing it would i not be putting all the goodness down the drain !!!!!!!!

gadgesxi

id say no, all the goodness is in the tuna, not the oil/brine.

hackskii

You can get tuna in spring water here.
Otherwise it is in vegetable oil and I dont think that is as good.
Vegetable oil will raise the Omega 6 fatty acids.
Some tuna is packed in olive oil and this would be second best.

The intake of 400–600 g/d of fruits and vegetables is associated with reduced incidence of many common forms of cancer. These foods contain phytochemicals that can modulate gene expression to inhibit carcinogenesis via multiple pathways. Many phytochemicals are colorful, providing an easy way to communicate increased diversity of fruits and vegetables to the public. Red foods contain lycopene, the pigment in tomatoes, which is localized in the prostate gland and may be involved in maintaining prostate health. Yellow-green vegetables, such as corn and leafy greens, contain lutein and zeaxanthin, which are localized in the retina where age-related macular degeneration occurs. Red-purple foods contain anthocyanins, which are powerful antioxidants found in red apples, grapes, berries and wine. Orange foods, including carrots, mangos, apricots, pumpkin and winter squash, contain ß-carotene. Orange-yellow foods, including oranges, tangerines and lemons contain citrus flavonoids. Green foods, including broccoli, Brussels sprouts and kale, contain glucosinolates. White-green foods in the onion family contain allyl sulfides. Consumers are advised to ingest one serving of each of the above groups daily, putting this recommendation within the National Cancer Institute and American Institute for Cancer Research guidelines of five to nine servings per day. The color code provides simplification, but it is also important as a way to help consumers to find common fruits and vegetables easily while traveling, eating in restaurants or working. At home, simple ways of preparing foods rapidly and easily are needed to influence dietary patterns.

I agree with that all the colors with fruits and vegetables.

ok, i'm confussed about something, i've worked out that my body uses roughly 3865Kcal to function, thats after my gym, dog walking and other activites have been taken into account, so what should i add on top of that to gain mass?

Pscarb

firstly you would look at what you are consuming now to maintain your weight then add 500cal every day for a week and look at the gains you make...
