Guest guest Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 It is too restrictive for some people, some thrive on it, some cause way more problems then they previously had. It also depends on how strong your kidneys are because too much protein can overload them. A balanced, fresh and whole food diet is best. Because of your arthritis, I would cut the meat and dairy entirely and use nuts and legumes for my protein sources instead.
