2. The Elite Foods List(エリートフードリスト)

この食事プロトコルの基本ルールは次のとおりです。

原則はこれだけです。以下に、摂るべき食材のすべてと、その理由をまとめます。


ELITE(最良)の食材


なぜ肉・果物・乳製品というアプローチなのか?

要するに、栄養密度がもっとも高い食材(上のリスト)を最大化し、植物やPUFA(種子油)のような有害な食材を最小化するという基本原則に行き着きます。現代の巨大食品産業が何と言おうと、それらはあなたの見た目を損なっています。以下に、このアプローチが機能する理由をさらに詳しく説明します。

ノーズ・トゥ・テイル:肉へのアプローチ

肉はこの食事法の土台です。肉には体が必要とする重要な微量栄養素のほとんどが、豊富に含まれています。必須の微量栄養素、オメガ3脂肪酸、SFAが多く、吸収されやすいタンパク質の優れた供給源でもあります。そのうえで、もっとも効果的な肉の食べ方についてさらに詳しく知っておく必要があります。この食事法には、健康とパフォーマンスを最大化する特定の取り組み方があるからです。それは、動物1頭をまるごと、つまり「ノーズ・トゥ・テイル(鼻から尻尾まで)」食べることを目指す、という考え方です。これによって、祖先の食べ方を再現する「栄養の相乗効果」が生まれます。具体的には、反芻動物の「筋肉の肉」(ステーキ、ラムチョップなど)を、ボーンブロスや骨髄といった他の部位と組み合わせます。筋肉の肉には求めている良質なタンパク質(豊富な必須アミノ酸、各種ビタミンとミネラル)が含まれますが、コラーゲンやグリシン、その他の非必須(それでも重要な)アミノ酸が不足しています。これらは結合組織や骨に豊富に含まれています。したがって、反芻動物の肉と結合組織の部位を組み合わせることで、地球上でもっともバランスの取れた栄養プロファイルが得られ、最大限の力と最高の健康状態で動けるようになります。

なぜ果物とはちみつを主な炭水化物源にするのか?

果物とはちみつを主な炭水化物源として重視するのは、その栄養豊富な組成と、祖先の食生活における歴史的な位置づけに由来します。バナナ、りんご、ブルーベリー、オレンジといった果物は、ビタミンC、カリウム、そしてフラボノイドやポリフェノールなどの各種ファイトケミカルを豊富に含み、これらは抗酸化作用を発揮します。これらの成分は体内の酸化ストレスと炎症に対抗するうえで中心的な役割を果たし、全身の健康と病気の予防に寄与します。さらに、果物に含まれる天然の糖、主に果糖は、すぐに使えるエネルギー源となる一方で、精製糖にともなう代謝への悪影響を抑えます。同様に生はちみつも、炭水化物源であるだけでなく、酵素、フェノール酸、フラボノイドといった生理活性成分を含み、抗菌・抗酸化・抗炎症の作用をもたらします。果物とはちみつが祖先の食生活に組み込まれていたのは、それらが未加工であり、防御化学物質を含む植物を避けられるからで、これは進化的な適応と一致しています。果物は炭水化物を摂るうえでもっとも栄養密度の高い手段であり、でんぷんや加工・精製された糖を摂ることの問題も避けられるため、主要な炭水化物源にすべきです。

これと正反対のアプローチが、炭水化物として野菜や米・穀物といったでんぷん質を摂ることです。これには強く反対します。野菜やその他の炭水化物を摂ることには、さまざまな問題があるからです。野菜にはレクチン、フィチン酸、シュウ酸といった防御化学物質が含まれており、これらは昆虫や草食動物に食べられないよう進化してきたものです(詳しくは健康最適化のセクションで扱います)。考えてみてください。植物は地面に根を張って動けないため、身を守る手段は、捕食者の健康を損なう「毒」を含むことしかありません。これらの成分は栄養素の吸収を妨げ、消化管の健康を乱します。たとえばレクチンは腸壁に結合し、炎症と腸の透過性の問題を引き起こします。フィチン酸は必須ミネラルをキレートして吸収を妨げます。同様にシュウ酸は腎結石の形成に関与し、カルシウム代謝を妨げます。カルシウム代謝は、このコースで扱う男性的な特徴を育てるうえで極めて重要です。祖先はおそらく、栄養素と抗栄養素の比率がはるかに優れた果物とはちみつを選ぶことで、これらの防御化学物質を避けていたのでしょう。

乳製品はヤギと羊を主軸に、すべて生で。その理由は?

現代の食品業界は乳製品を悪者にしてきました。健康に良いとされる理由で乳製品を断とうとする人ばかりになり、その裏で手放している微量栄養素には気づいていません。動物性の乳製品には、身長を伸ばすうえで欠かせないカルシウムとビタミンK2が含まれており、これを断てば体は弱くもろくなります。とはいえ、こうした「流行」を追う人たちが正しい点もひとつあります。特定のタイプの乳製品は炎症を招き、健康にとって望ましくないのです。一般の人が口にしている乳製品、つまり超高温殺菌された穀物飼育のA1牛の乳製品は、たしかに健康を大きく損ないます。A1タンパク質を摂ると、体内でBCM-7というペプチドの放出が促されます。放出されたこのペプチドは自己免疫反応を引き起こし、腸の透過性を高め、血液脳関門を通過することもあります。いずれも炎症を高め、その結果として見た目を悪化させます。従来の牛乳製品のもうひとつの問題は、脂肪酸の鎖長と脂肪球のサイズです。脂肪酸の鎖が長く脂肪球が大きいため、牛乳製品は消化しにくく、栄養素の吸収も難しくなります。

その解決策は、羊とヤギに含まれるA2タイプの乳製品だけを常に選ぶことです。一部の牛もA2タンパク質を産生しますが、羊とヤギの乳製品にはさらに多くのメリットがあるため、こちらをおすすめします。羊とヤギの乳製品はすべてA2であるうえ、脂肪球がはるかに小さく、消化しやすいのです。どちらも主要な微量栄養素と電解質(カルシウムを含む)の含有量が高く、A1タンパク質を含む巨大食品産業版の乳製品のような炎症を招くことなく、乳製品のメリットをすべて得られます。

最後に、口にする乳製品は理想を言えば生であるべきです。健康のセクションで簡単に触れたとおり、生(無殺菌)の乳製品は、殺菌されたものと比べて健康上の大きなメリットがあります。生乳の栄養面での優位性を知るために、以下のリストを見てください。

The fundamental rule of our diet protocol is this: - Protein and fat from animal products - Carbohydrates from fruit, honey and dairy. It is as simple as that, but below is the list of all the foods you should be consuming and why: --- **The ELITE Foods** - **Grass-fed Beef, Bison, Lamb** (Mince, Ribeye, Fillet, Sirloin, Rump, etc.): Rich in essential amino acids, omega-3 fatty acids, and bioavailable iron (heme iron). These meats provide high-quality protein for muscle repair and growth and fat-soluble vitamins like **vitamin A** (retinol) and vitamin K2, which are crucial for bone growth and overall health. - **Liver, Heart, Bone Marrow**: Organ meats are incredibly nutrient-dense, being a source of vitamin A, vitamin B12, choline, iron, and **zinc**, which all support cellular metabolism, energy production, and immune function. Liver, in particular, has a high concentration of retinol**,** which is critical for your skin health. - **Tallow**: Rendered animal fat from grass-fed sources is high in saturated fatty acids (SFAs) and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), which improve hormone production, including testosterones'. Tallow is also rich in stearic acid, a saturated fat shown to support mitochondrial function. - **Pasture-Raised Eggs**: Eggs from pasture-raised chickens are a complete protein source and provide a wealth of nutrients, including choline**,** lutein and zeaxanthin. The important egg yolk also contains vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids**,** critical for inflammatory balance and bone density - **Bone Broth**: Rich in collagen, glycine, proline, and glutamine. Bone broth promotes gut health by supporting the strength of the intestinal lining and reducing gut permeability ("leaky gut"). These amino acids are also crucial for tissue repair and supporting skin, joint, and bone health through collagen synthesis. - **Celtic Sea Salt**: A rich source of essential minerals such as sodium, magnesium, and potassium, which are vital for maintaining electrolyte balance (see section in Healthmaxxing) - **Raw Honey**: Contains natural sugars, antioxidants, enzymes and polyphenols. These bioactive compounds support immune function and act as antioxidants which protect cells from oxidative damage and provide a quick-access energy source through fructose and glucose. - **Royal Jelly, Bee Pollen, Maple Syrup**: Royal jelly and bee pollen are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Maple syrup, contains polyphenols and manganese, which aid in antioxidant defense and energy production. - **Fruits** (Avocado, Bananas, Apples, Blueberries, etc.): Fruits provide essential vitamins like vitamin C, potassium, fiber, and phytonutrients like flavonoids and polyphenols. These compounds are again antioxidants and have anti-inflammatory effects. This leads to improved metabolic health and reduced oxidative stress. - **Raw Dairy** (Milk, Cheese, Yogurt/Kefir, Colostrum from Goat/Sheep/Cow): Raw dairy from A2-casein animals contains bioavailable calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin K2 for bone health, along with probiotics and enzymes such as lactase, which assist in digesting lactose and improving gut flora. - **Some Vegetables (Only To Be Eaten Seasonally)**: Foods such as Winter Squash, Carrots, Turnips, Zucchini, Pumpkin and Potatoes/Sweet Potatoes are really the only ones that I would recommend. Whilst they are plants which I generally avoid in this diet, eating these when in season (winter in this case) can be highly beneficial for aligning your body with the natural seasons, improving digestion, and giving your body the energy it needs to live in colder conditions. It is important that if you do decide to eat these, that you prepare them properly. Peel off skin where possible, wash fully (you can even soak them overnight) and ensure that they are fully cooked before consumption. --- **Why the Meat, Fruit, and Dairy Approach?** **I**t comes down to the fundamental principle of maximizing the most nutrient-dense foods, (the list above) and minimizing the toxic foods such as plants and PUFA's (seed oils) that, despite what modern 'big' food tells you, are making you ugly. Below is more information on why this approach works. **Nose to Tail: The Approach to Meat** Meat is the foundation for this diet. Meat contains most of the vital micronutrients that the body needs and in abundance. It's high in vital micronutrients, omega-3 fatty acids, SFA's, and a great source of bioavailable protein. With this in mind, there is further detail needed on how to go about consuming meat in the most effective way. There is a specific way of approaching this diet that will lead to the highest health and performance. This is that you should be aiming to consume to whole animal or ‘nose to tail’. This creates a sort of ‘nutrient synergy’ that replicates how our ancestors would have eaten. The way to do this is to pair the ‘muscle meats’ or ruminants (steaks, lamb chop etc) with other parts of the animal such as bone broth ,bone marrow etc. Muscle meats contain the high-quality protein we’re after (plenty of essential amino acids, various vitamins and minerals) but lack certain nutrients like collagen, glycine, and other non-essential (but still important) amino acids found abundantly in connective tissues and bones. As a result, the combination of both ruminants and connective parts will lead to the most well-rounded nutrient profile on the planet, allowing you to operate at maximum capacity and peak health. - Despite what many advocates may say online, you don’t need bone broth every day however. 3-4 days per week with 500ml of the highest quality bone broth you have access to is perfect. **Fruit and Honey as Primary Carb Source – Why?** My emphasis on fruits and honey as primary carbohydrate sources derives from their nutrient-rich composition and historical relevance in ancestral diets. Fruits, such as bananas, apples, blueberries, and oranges, offer a plethora of essential vitamins, including vitamin C, potassium, and various phytochemicals like flavonoids and polyphenols, which exert antioxidant properties. These compounds play pivotal roles in combating oxidative stress and inflammation within the body, thereby contributing to overall health and disease prevention. Furthermore, the natural sugars present in fruits, predominantly fructose, provide a readily available energy source while mitigating the adverse metabolic effects associated with refined sugars. Similarly, raw honey, apart from being a source of carbohydrates, harbours bioactive compounds like enzymes, phenolic acids, and flavonoids, which confer antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties. The inclusion of fruits and honey in ancestral diets is rooted in their unprocessed nature and the avoidance of plants containing defensive chemicals, aligning with evolutionary adaptations. Fruits should be your main source of carbohydrates as they are the most nutrient-dense method of getting carbohydrates and avoid the issues of consuming starches and processed/refined sugars. The opposite to this approach would be consuming vegetables and other starches such as rice or grains for carbohydrates. I strongly argue against this because consuming vegetables and other carbohydrates pose various issues: Vegetables contain various defence chemicals, such as lectins, phytates, and oxalates, evolved to deter insects and herbivores from consumption (more on this in the healthmaxxing section). Think about it, plants are stationary and rooted in the ground, and so cannot defend themselves other than by containing these ‘poisons’ to damage the health of their prey. These compounds interfere with nutrient absorption and disrupt gastrointestinal health. Lectins, for instance, bind to the gut lining, leading to inflammation and gut permeability issues, while phytates chelate essential minerals, hindering their absorption. Similarly, oxalates contribute to the formation of kidney stones and interfere with calcium metabolism which is crucial for developing the masculine characteristics we discuss in this course. Our ancestors likely avoided these defensive chemicals by favouring fruits and honey, which offer a much better nutrient-to-anti-nutrient ratio. **Primary Dairy Source from Goats and Sheep, ALL RAW - Why?** The modern food industry has villanized dairy. It feels like everyone is now trying to cut it out for supposed health benefits, not realizing the micronutrients they are leaving behind. Animal dairy products contain the crucial nutrients for your height growth, calcium and vitamin K2 and so cutting them out will leave you weakened and brittle. However, there is one thing all of those 'FAD' followers are right about. Certain types of dairy are inflammatory and thus subpar for your health. The types of dairy that the average person consumes, being ultra-pasteurized, grain-fed, A1 Cows dairy, does wreak havoc on your health. When A1 proteins are consumed, it signals the release of a peptide in the body called BCM-7. Once released, this peptide causes an auto-immune response, an increase in gut permeability and can cross the blood-brain barrier. All of these cause heightened inflammation and thus a worsened appearance. Another issue with traditional cow's dairy is its fatty-acid length and fat globule size. With longer fatty-acid chains and larger fat globule sizes, people have a hard time digesting and thus absorbing the nutrients in cow's dairy. The solution to this is to always only consume A2 types of dairy, found in sheep and goats. Whilst certain cows do produce A2 protein, there are more benefits to dairy from sheep and goats, which is why we recommend it. Not only is Sheep and Goat dairy all A2, but they both have much smaller fat globules, making it easier to digest. Both are higher in most key micronutrients and electrolytes, including calcium and will give you all of the benefits of dairy, without the inflammation from 'big' food's version of dairy, containing A1 protein. Finally, the dairy products you do consume should ideally be raw. As briefly alluded to in the health section, raw or unpasteurized dairy has significant health benefits compared to its pasteurized counterpart. Just to give you an idea of the nutrient supremacy of raw milk, see the list below: - **Vitamin A**: Pasteurized Milk: 35% reduction Raw Milk: 100% active - **Vitamin C**: Pasteurized Milk: 25-77% reduction Raw Milk: 100% active - **Vitamin E**: Pasteurized Milk: 14% reduction Raw Milk: 100% active - **Iron**: Pasteurized Milk: Reduced Raw Milk: 100% active - **Zinc**: Pasteurized Milk: 66% reduction Raw Milk: 100% active - **B-Complex Vitamins**: Pasteurized Milk: 38% reduction Raw Milk: 100% active - **Calcium**: Pasteurized Milk: 21% reduction Raw Milk: 100% active - **Enzymes**: Pasteurized Milk: 100% destroyed Raw Milk: 100% active - **Immunoglobulins**: Pasteurized Milk: Damaged Raw Milk: 100% active - **Whey Protein**: Pasteurized Milk: Denatured Raw Milk: 100% active --- **Conclusion:** The saying 'what you put in is what you get out' couldn't be more correct here. The foods that you put into your body define how you look. Many people try to make up for a poor diet appearance-wise, but you cannot run forever. Your diet should be the priority when trying to ascend, and the diet above is the best place to start.
