I remember reading articles about Dana Torres where she mentioned how her current training diet was more protein based and not the carb loading that was her earlier training days.
As someone who is contemplating a higher level of training, I'm wondering what is the ideal ratio of protein/carb/fat is (Of course ice cream should be the 4th food group)... Of course I could just buy her book, but I doubt that would answer my questions : ).
If anyone has personal/professional experience glad to hear it, but equally interested in recommended resources web or paper based.
Thanks!

I'm not too impressed with my link either ... it was just a quick google search to find a web site in English.
I'm not a scientist and really not into convincing anybody, I just don't get why grown men and women drink milk. If you were to drink it directly from the source, you wouldn't, would you? Yuk! Milk (and meat) is full of hormones, it just cannot be good for anyone but babies, who cannot eat real food yet. Some people call milk "liquid meat" ... but that's another story ;)
If you're interested, just google MILK or DAIRY and CANCER, CONSTIPATION, OSTEOPOROSIS or what ever you like, and see what you get. Or look here: http://www.milksucks.com
Denmark is one of the most dairy-consuming countries. And inhabitated by a populations with one of the worlds highest presences of osteoporosis. Most Asians (still living in Asia) don't eat dairy products, and they have much less osteoporosis than Danes do.
Haven't you ever wondered why the Japanese get so old? And are so vital even at very old age? You didn't need to spend much time at the championshipsin Gothenburg to notice, how vital the old Japanese participants were. Simply amazing. The older generations in Japan eat vegetables, no dairy and very little meat and fish - the young Japanese eat more like we do, and they get the same diseases as we do. I don't think the young Japanese will get as old or as vital when aging as their ancestors. But that's pure speculation ...
As a high intake of dairy quite often correlates with high meat intake, it's apparently quite difficult to tell the difference between health issues related to dairy intake and issues related to eating meat. I believe dairy and meat are two sides of the same story. And that the safest and most healthy diet is - IMHO - veggies and fruit.
