HOW MUCH PROTIEN DO PERSONS W/HIV NEED?


A good rule of thumb is to eat one gram of protein for every two pounds of body weight—so if you weigh 160, 80 grams (around 3 ounces) of protein per day would be appropriate. But always tell your doctor all the things you add when you think about taking a supplement.

EATING THESE NUTS MIGHT NOT BE AS FUN BUT....

Pistachios have been said to have anti-oxidents & have heart healthy benefits! Could this mean could help lower lipid levels for HIV persons who are on MEDICINES that can cause bad lipids to rise to high..........Should more eat them?  They are pricey so maybe go in with a group and order in bulk and spit them by weighing them. SO GO CHECK THIS OUT!        #IwasjustthinkingHCP Heart Main
