Food Fortification - Fortification For Body Building

Fortification For Body Building

Despite having some scientific basis, but with controversial ethics, is the science of using foods and food supplements to achieve a defined health goal. A common example of this use of food supplements is the extent to which body builders will use amino acid mixtures, vitamins and phytochemicals to enhance natural hormone production, increase muscle and reduce fat. The literature is not concrete on an appropriate method for use of fortification for body builders and therefore may not be recommended due to safety concerns.

Famous quotes containing the words body and/or building:

    “All great art is the work of the whole living creature, body and soul, and chiefly of the soul.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    “Our civilization is characterized by the word “progress.” Progress is its form rather than making progress being one of its features. Typically it constructs. It is occupied with building an ever more complicated structure. And even clarity is sought only as a means to this end, not as an end in itself. For me on the contrary clarity, perspicuity are valuable in themselves.”
    —Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
