Would a higher PUFA for athlete be acceptable? I love my eggs and I find whole milk more beneficial to low fat. But with 3L Whole milk and 2 eggs I`m at 7g PUFA..

As such, the SFA would probably offset the PUFA in the whole milk.It has been discussed on the forum that what is really important is the ratio of saturated fat to polyunsaturated fat.

I think the term "athlete" already implies some long-term damage to health, although a calculated risk, so perhaps doing whatever possible to mitigate the damage from those foods would be a solid approach.

Yes, athletes are rapidly burning through fat stores and fatty acid oxidation is increased.
I would not worry about egg yolks or even count them towards PUFA.
Remember, a baby chick is supposed to be born from the egg yolk - it is not conducive for the egg yolk to "rot" or be prone to rotting. There is so much good in the egg yolk that it offsets the PUFA, not the least of which is Vitamin E and A, both of which protect against lipid peroxidation.
If you're an athlete you can likely get away with a slightly higher PUFA intake in an otherwise healthy diet.
If I am gonna take in a lot of PUFA, I prefer it to be in the form of fresh seafood like whole salmon (not filet) or whole sardines.

I tend not to worry about PUFA in whole foods, although I still choose not to eat nuts, seeds or fatty fish.
Usain Bolt ate 100 McDonalds chicken nuggets per day while competing at the Beijing olympic games and broke the 100 metre record.

I think so. There are some posts on the forum that suggest of the saturated fats, stearic may be among the most protective.Great!
So some Coconut Oil with my eggs and some DeFibron could be good examples to create a better SFA/PUFA ratio then?
I would think that this is a good starting point compared the majority of the planet.I`m at 7g PUFA..
Yeah that`s true and I`m aware. I do a strength session a day, 10 minute fast walk with focus on posture and nose breathing, "calm" lifts and only one muscle group, low CNS stimuli. And I often do an intervall later on the day with heavy focus on posture and nose breathing. I`m keeping estrogen low with Progesterone, Androsterone and some DHEA. OJ, Collagen, Energin, Creatin, Salt and some sugar during workouts. Some Vitamin D/E/K daily and other Idealabs supplements sporadically.
Is that honestly correct? I just typed it into the cronometer (it has all McDonalds food in there), and it came out at a whopping 270g of fat (120g of which was PUFA), PER DAY.
pufas can be burned at the same time as glucose in high intensity activity
