Do you want a six pack or do you just want to get in shape?
Well, you've come to the right place!

They say abs are made in the kitchen.

No, but having a nutritional diet is a great way to get into shape, along with some good ol' exercise.

Re: Diet and Nutrition

I propose we split the Topic into various areas concerning diet:
  • Diets Containing Meat and Health
  • Ovo-Lactose Diets and Health (Milk and Eggs)
  • Vegetarian (No Eggs) Diets and Health
  • Vegan Diets and Health
  • Supplements
Lets kick off with the essential for maintaining a good body. What are they? For example Proteins (Amino's - Types), Carbohydrates, Sugars.

Re: Diet and Nutrition

Sugars are cabohydrates
Monosaccharides are the major source of fuel for
Metabolism Metabolism
, being used both as an energy source (glucose being the most important in nature) and in
Biosynthesis Biosynthesis
. When monosaccharides are not immediately needed by many cells they are often converted to mosre space efficient forms, often
Polysaccharide Polysaccharide
. In many animals, including humans, this form is
Glycerol Glycerol
, expecially in liver nad muscle cells.


Proteins:
Most
Microorganism Microorganism
and plants can biosynthesize all 20 standard
Amino_acids Amino_acids
, while animals, (including humans) must obtain some of the amino acids from the diet.[14] Key enzymes in the biosynthetic pathways that synthesize certain amino acids - such as
Aspartokinase Aspartokinase
, which catalyzes the first step in the synthesis of
Lysine Lysine
,
Methionine Methionine
, and
Threonine Threonine
from
Aspartate Aspartate
- are not present in animals. The amino acids that an organism cannot synthesize on its own are referred to as
Essential_amino_acids Essential_amino_acids
. If amino acids are present in the environment, microorganisms can conserve energy by taking up the amino acids from their surroundings and downregulating their biosynthetic pathways.

In animals, amino acids are obtained through the consumption of foods containing protein. Ingested proteins are broken down through
Digestion Digestion
, which typically involves denaturation of the protein through exposure to
Acid Acid
and
Hydrolysis Hydrolysis
by enzymes called
Protease Protease
. Some ingested amino acids are used for protein biosynthesis, while others are converted to
Glucose Glucose
through
Gluconeogenesis Gluconeogenesis
, or fed into the
Citric_acid_cycle Citric_acid_cycle
. This use of protein as a fuel is particularly important under
Starvation Starvation
conditions as it allows the body's own proteins to be used to support life, particularly those found in
Muscle Muscle
.[24] Amino acids are also an important dietary source of
Nitrogen Nitrogen
.


Fats
Vitamin Vitamin
Vitamin_A Vitamin_A
,
Vitamin_D Vitamin_D
,
Vitamin_E Vitamin_E
, and
Vitamin_K Vitamin_K
are fat-soluble, meaning they can only be digested, absorbed, and transported in conjunction with fats. Fats are also sources of
Essential_fatty_acid Essential_fatty_acid
, an important dietary requirement.

Fats play a vital role in maintaining healthy
Skin Skin
and
Hair Hair
, insulating body organs against shock, maintaining body temperature, and promoting healthy cell function. They also serve as energy stores for the body. Fats are broken down in the body to release
Glycerin Glycerin
and free
Fatty_acid Fatty_acid
. The glycerol can be converted to
Glucose Glucose
by the liver and thus used as a source of energy.

The fat content of a food can be analyzed by extraction. The exact method varies on what type of fat to be analyzed—for example, polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats are tested quite differently.
Fat also serves as a useful buffer towards a host of diseases. When a particular substance, whether chemical or biotic—reaches unsafe levels in the bloodstream, the body can effectively dilute—or at least maintain equilibrium of—the offending substances by storing it in new fat tissue. This helps to protect vital organs, until such time as the offending substances can be metabolized and/or removed from the body by such means as
Excretion Excretion
,
Urination Urination
, accidental or intentional
Bloodletting Bloodletting
,
Sebum Sebum
excretion, and
Hair Hair
growth.

Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=22776
While it is nearly impossible to remove fat completely from the diet, it would be unhealthy to do so. Some fatty acids are essential nutrients, meaning that they can't be produced in the body from other compounds and need to be consumed in small amounts. All other fats required by the body are non-essential and can be produced in the body from other compounds.


Vitamins

Vitamins are essential for the normal growth and development of a multicellular organism. Using the genetic blueprint inherited from its parents, a
Fetus Fetus
begins to develop, at the moment of conception, from the nutrients it absorbs. It requires certain vitamins and minerals to be present at certain times. These nutrients facilitate the chemical reactions that produce among other things,
Skin Skin
,
Bone Bone
, and
Muscle Muscle
. If there is serious deficiency in one or more of these nutrients, a child may develop a deficiency disease. Even minor deficiencies may cause permanent damage.[25]

For the most part, vitamins are obtained with food, but a few are obtained by other means. For example, microorganisms in the intestine—commonly known as "
Gut_flora Gut_flora
"—produce vitamin K and biotin, while one form of vitamin D is synthesized in the
Skin Skin
with the help of natural
Ultraviolet Ultraviolet
in
Sunlight Sunlight
. Humans can produce some vitamins from precursors they consume. Examples include
Vitamin_A Vitamin_A
, produced from
Beta_carotene Beta_carotene
, and niacin, from the
Amino_acid Amino_acid
Tryptophan Tryptophan
.[14]

Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=22776
Once growth and development are completed, vitamins remain essential nutrients for the healthy maintenance of the cells, tissues, and organs that make up a multicellular organism; they also enable a multicellular life form to efficiently use chemical energy provided by food it eats, and to help process the proteins, carbohydrates, and fats required for respiration.


This is all from wikipedia BTW.

I'm sorry but that individual is not a Sikh (please I am not being blasphemous here), he is actually a south United Statian and uses steroids. His full biography can be found on bodybuilding.com and his picture has been distributed before.
