Question:What Do You Think About the anti-cholesterol
medication
Pravastatin. Will. I have recently been put in an anti-cholesterol
medication called Pravastatin. Although I am only 26, heart
disease runs in my family and I have genetically high cholesterol
levels, so my doc put me on this drug. Will it have any negative
effects on my bodybuilding efforts?

Question : 30 Gram Protein Rule
Hey Will, I was told by a trainer in my gym that 30 grams of
protein is the upper limit a person can digest, but he could
not tell me where that rule comes from. He said it was a "known
fact" and walked away when I questioned his source. So
what is the deal with this 30 gram rule? Is this guy full of
it or should I worry about it? My stats are: 5'9" and 220lbs
with about 10% bodyfat. I lift weights (heavy!) 4 days per week
and do aerobics 2-3 day per week. Thank you, Daniel

Question: Slow Thyroid
Dear Will. I have a slow thyroid that is not quite
hypothyroidism according to my Dr. He says I am in the "low
normal" range and therefore don't need thyroid replacement
therapy. I also had elevated but normal TSH levels, what ever
that is. I went to see him because I was feeling tired all the
time and had put on some weight for no reason. My workouts were
also suffering a little. The Dr, however still insisted I did
not require any thyroid medications. What do you think I should
do? What can I do? Your help would be much appreciated. |

Dear Will, I am a chemistry student who regularly reads your

that fats and fatty acid metabolism seems like a particular

is this, what effects does fat have on hair loss? I am doing
research into this and I don't have a clue where to start but
it is a topic that really interests me. Thanks for the help
and you dont have to print this letter in the cloumn if you
dont want to. Tod L. Hoibert |

Question : Can Whey Help With Stress
Dear Will, I follow our articles and column every month. One
article in particular I really enjoyed was about the many uses
of whey, from depression to performance. It was very interesting.
One thing I have suffered from is depression which seems to
get worse if I am under stress, like studying for a test. Can
whey also help me perform better on my school tests as well
as being a great protein source for my bodybuilding efforts?

Question : Over Training Syndrome ?
Dear Will, I am often tired for days after I workout. I also
notice my strength is down and I get sick more often than others.
I am thinking I must be in an over trained state. I am a tri-athlete
and it often comes with the territory, though I try to avoid
it. What information do you have that would help me? By the
way, your e-book was very helpful. - Jack.Wate.

Question : Is high protein connected with
heart disease
Dear Will, You and other sports nutrition authorities have always
recommended increased protein intakes over the RDA for people
trying to gain muscle and weight. I have always been told that
higher protein intakes were associated with an increase in the
rate of heart disease. Is this not exactly what we are trying
to avoid by taking up the healthy life style of bodybuilding?

Question : Adolescent Weight Loss
Dear Will, I am the father of a 16-year-old boy who stared lifting
weight and reading your magazine in the hope he would lose some
weight. He has always had a weight problem and became very encouraged
after reading your column. However, he has also started taking
an ephedrine and caffeine-containing product to help him lose
weight. He claims it is safe and effective for him to do so
but I am worried at his age, it could be unhealthy. Your opinion
would be much appreciated, as I know he looks to you for much
of his information. |
