What is it with brits and yanks and fad diets. Just eat like your grandparents did. I eat a more or less 100% Mediterranean spanish and will live to. 110
But the extra 30 years is from 80-110 , it’s not 18-48 relived, so who fucking cares.
Topical Neanderthal is on point, he started the insulting stuff...
Fish, not bad, my kids get it from me (chiefly/ideally arctic salmon, I'm intolerant and long term veggie). Chicken is OK, but the fats are not as favourable as via plant IMO, which is an oxidative stain on performance.
Plant proteins, if you want career longevity, is the way forward. Some may be better on some animal protein, Type O's and whilst transitioning.
Everyone is different, but I believe the de facto model of athletic performance does not include much/any meat.
Low starch carb also, so my thoughts are complicated.
My standard answer to any health nut...Why would you want more of the worst years of your life?
Let me know when you are next going to a party , would love to hear a lot more in the kitchen whilst drinking my Guava and mango smoothie
When I'm 80, I'll still be able to get it up at OAP parties...
Not sure if it had already been mentioned, but as well as his dietary preferences for the players, Conte is also very specific on sex too.
"During the season, I advise my players to have sex for short periods and with the minimum of effort," he told L'Equipe.
"[And they] better use positions where they are under their partners. And preferably, with their wives, because if with others, well, that needs extra action."

The shit youre saying is true for infants that had nitrate poisoning and has nothing to do with an athlete eating some ham. Thats like comparing alcohol poisoning with a toast at christmas.
Are you a nutritionist with a phd?
Are you a doctor?
Do you work with athletes and study their diet?
Do you have any professional experience when it comes to the study of nutrition and athletes. Especially when it comes to Jamon gifted by Jose Mourinho?
Or you are just quoting the internet and talking about personal experience.
Likely b/c of high levels of Manganese and other heavy metals.
Fair play to you , I think . Not sure I would want to , but maybe when I’m 80When I'm 80, I'll still be able to get it up at OAP parties...
Isn’t an OAP party called a funeral
Because if you eat healthily all your life, your later life is not as an aged invalid. I used to live in scotland. People in their 40s look 60. I see people well into their 80s-90s here having coffee with their friends and looking like a british 70
Interesting. Tom Brady who's 45 and still playing like he's in his mid 20s also abides by a similar diet. But honestly, only someone that's a borderline crazy can stick to this diet for a long period of time.
The diet and exercise plan Tom Brady follows to stay in shape
Football player’s unique diet involves avoiding ‘nightshades’
www.independent.co.uk
Brady typically starts his day by drinking “20 ounces of water with electrolytes,” which he then follows with a “high-calorie, high-fat, high-protein smoothie,” made of ingredients such as bananas, blueberries, nuts, and seeds, according to the TB12 website.
He follows with a breakfast of eggs and avocado.
After his workout, and multiple times throughout the day, Brady supplements his diet with a protein shake made of vegan protein, with his lunch consisting of 80 per cent vegetables.
The football player then snacks on nuts and seeds, as well as hummus or guacamole, before having a dinner that follows the same 80/20 rule.
According to the TB12 website, Brady often concludes his daily eating with a “steaming cup of bone broth”.
As for what he avoids, his personal chef previously revealed in an interview with Boston.com that there are numerous foods and food groups that Brady steers clear from, including white sugar and MSG.
“No white sugar. No white flour. No MSG. I'll use raw olive oil, but I never cook with olive oil. I only cook with coconut oil. Fats like canola oil turn into trans fats. ... I use Himalayan pink salt as the sodium. I never use iodised salt,” Allen Campbell said at the time, adding that the football player also avoids “nightshades, because they're not anti-inflammatory,” which also includes tomatoes and eggplant, nor does he consume caffeine, fungus or dairy.
According to Brady, avoiding foods that cause inflammation is especially important because inflammation is already an unavoidable part of being an athlete.
“Some younger players don’t give too much thought to nutrition. They think they can eat anything they want, and their bodies will burn off the damage. The problem is that by eating inflammatory foods, they’re eating things that create inflammation on top of the weight lifting they’ve done on top of the football game they just played on Sunday,” he explained. “That’s an inflammation response times three. As I said, if I know my body will experience inflammation every Sunday during the season, the last thing I want to do is stack on more inflammation on top of it - not if I want to feel great every time I take the field.”
Brady also avoids eating anything three hours before going to bed each night, as research suggests that eating late at night may increase body fat.
“It really doesn’t matter how much exercise you do if you’re not eating the right food and providing your body the right nutrients,” he wrote in the book.
However, the strict diet doesn’t mean that the quarterback avoids cheat days or cheat meals, as he told Men’s Health that he doesn’t mind treating himself when a craving arises.
"If I’m craving bacon, I have a piece. Same with pizza. You should never restrict what you really want. We’re humans, here for one life," he told the outlet. “What’s changed as I’ve gotten older is now if I want pizza, I want the best pizza. I don’t eat a slice that tastes like sh*t and then wonder: ‘'Why am I eating sh*t pizza?'"
Reminds me of the joke where an old man in a park , has a frog say to him “ if you kiss me I will turn into a beautiful young woman and I will let you do whatever you want to me, no restrictions”When I'm 80, I'll still be able to get it up at OAP parties...
the old man sticks the frog in his pocket and says “ I’m 80 I would sooner have a talking frog”
I am slow at typing , so that is a shortened version for you and a censored version for Mrs P

Thanks, same to you fella. Its similar to chronic fatigue and ME: You cant just sit in bed all day as that makes it worse, but push it too far and youre back to square one. Its good to know we're not alone in this!
Boring.
Nitrates affect us constantly, especially in the form we are discussing, hence the awkward labelling as carcinogenic... In water the effect is less dramatic, but still of significance when one is pushing themselves to the limit every 3-4days.
Get a grip.
Is there a correlation to that gift, and our teams demise??? The club manager giving a big joint of carcinogenic food to one of his elite athletes as reward, just in dietary symbolism, messaging to the rest of the team, this is huge IMO, early season, we were top!!! What happened next? Team looked knackered most of the season???
No interest
Italian players vs players coming from the Italian league is not the same thing.....
Loads of players have come here from Serie A and succeeded over the years.
ESPN regularly talk shite.
Not sure I expected anyone to take me seriously, I do accept your point. I’m 60 and look like a British 70
but it’s been a fun 60 years
