Guest guest Posted January 9, 2002 Report Share Posted January 9, 2002 I read the site about high protein diets, I just have one thing to throw in. eskimos have the highest protein diet and also consume the most calcium, but they have the highest rate of osteoperosis of any people...I would be skeptical of anyone who advocates an abnormally high protein, carb or fat diet for ANY reason. Lets use our intuition a bit here, BALANCE is the key. Complex carbs, quality protein and good fats, all in balance, is the key to good health. troy __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2002 Report Share Posted January 9, 2002 This whole thing about getting enough protein is kind of silly. Mother's milk is 5% protein and infants are in need of protein more than adults... And vegetarians aren't necessarily eating a high carbohydrate diet...vegetables aren't that high in carbohydrates. It's the 20th century methods and diets that have found ways to up the carbohydrates. Basically you should eat whatever makes you feel better...some eat hot dogs for that purpose. Listen to your body and you'll find the food that's right for you. -- In gallstones@y..., Tishri7@a... wrote: > Hello, > Here is some good info about eating meat.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2002 Report Share Posted January 9, 2002 << I would be skeptical of anyone who advocates an abnormally high protein, carb or fat diet for ANY reason. >> No one is talking about an abnormally high amount of meat or protein. It's just eating more protein than carbs per meal, and having a good quality fat in your diet. You eliminate potatoes pretty much, white breads, flour products, white rice, pasta, etc. Eat good meats, preferably free range (not feed lot meats), and eat lower glycemic fruits and veggies, replace white breads with more grain breads, and of course cut out sugar and sweet junk and drink lots or water. People tend to refer to this as high protein diets, and it's really not so, it's just cutting way back on empty carbs that rush into your system the same as straight granulated sugar. Hope this helps some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
