ham?

is a lean cut of ham a good reliable source of protein??

Ham is full of sodium. It is an ok source there are many better and healthier ways to get your protein....

is it a complete protein?

Ham is a complete protein and it's totally fine to use.

I eat that all the time.

Don't worry about sodium unless you are prepping for pics or a contest and it's your final week. Sodium is key to muscle building.

I love ham :D :D

thanks alot swole. thats awesome. that means i can go to the closer dining hall tonight!!!

As long as you down plenty of fresh water daily, you'll excrete the excess sodium and avoid any unusual water retention.

If you don't drink enough H20, you'll bloat from pretty much anything you eat.

Watch out for processed ham and ham that has alot of added sugars also.

not planning on using it as on a consistant basis, just for tonight

I don't dig the swine...but, as long as its a clean cut your all good.

I am thinking about taking some ham slices to work with me for a mid day meal. I was taking chicken breast, but that is getting old. There is alot of protein in ham and it would be convinient. I drink about 1.5 to 2 gallons of water a day, so I should be good. I was gonna take a can of tuna but the smell would be too bad for the work area.
