Answer
Dear Waheed,

There's no simple answer to your question. Depending on your health condition, life style, metabollic type, etc., there can be diets based on completely oppisite approaches.

However, in any case, to succeed, you\'ll have to educate yourself on regular basis,

I would advise you to take a look at our Banta diet at:

For the muscle building part (though the Banta contain the elements of strength training routine) I highly recommend the manual of Tom Venuto. YOu can reach his site at:

Hope this helps,

Expertise

I am in neurophysiology since 1972, my research started with studies of neuronal interactions in the hypothalamic centers of hunger and satiety. I worked for 20 years in interdisciplinary teams, with physicists and mathematicians, as an expert in neuroscience preparing conceptual models of brain regulatory systems for their further implications in larger-scale mathematical and computer modeling. Since 2007, I focus on the metabolic aspects of neuroprotection.
