Is 93% fat free hamburg beef 7% fat? Am I missing something here? Okay, that's before cooking and there is water lost during the process, so let's say 10% net fat after cooking? I've blown an hour of my life away searching for this info on the net and all I can find is cholesterol info and pussbags wining about how killing the darn cows is mean. Don't these people ever watch the discovery channel? So anyways, Thanks!     | ||

If your hamburger says 93% fat free, then it means: 93% protein If you drain it after you cook it (and run it under the tap) you'll probably reduce the fat even more. ------------------ | ||

Well. Sounds pretty frickin good to me! I'm not a pro-bobybuilder but I've been lifting for years and hhave juiced a few times and gotten huge permenant gains... Is red meat fairly acceptable part of the diet then or what? Why is everyone so down on it? Thanks. | ||

i think red meast is an integral part of any diet in bodybuilding. What is you secret to "huge permanent gains" from juicing? | ||

Red meat has one of the most complete profiles of protein, so yes, I think it's important. ------------------ | ||

Maybe I'm also missing something, but I thought 93% fat free means that there are 7 grams of fat per 100 grams of hamburger. The other 93 grams (93%)are made up of protein and water (unspecified amount of each). It's just like 1% skim milk. Sure it's 99% fat free, but that other 99% is made up of mostly water, some protein and carbs. In theory 100 grams of hamburger could have 7 grams of fat (63 cals), 25 grams of protein (100 cals) and 68 grams of water, for a grand total of 163 cals, 39% of calories from fat, 61% of calories from protein. No doubt this is why red meat is considered a good 'bulking' food. |
