RE: Carbohydrates, protein, animal fat, vitamins folate and B12 andcentenarians

[Guest guest]

I’m an advocate for non-processed

foods, but I must admit that when it gets to protein I fold. I get about half

of my daily protein intake from casein protein powder. The downside is that it

is “processed”, but the upsides are:

- Very easy to measure how much protein I get

- It’s fat-free, so I get to eat my

healthy nuts

- If you go for casein, it coagulates

quite nicely, and if you add fiber and some flavor…

- It’s a cheap source of protein I get

mine at $6 per pound for casein at http://www.proteinfactory.com/in_case.htm#

- does not require refrigeration, thus is

also portable.

The rest of my protein comes mostly from

skinless chicken breast and low-fat cottage cheese (which is casein…

again).

Carbohydrates, protein, animal fat, vitamins folate and B12 andcentenarians

I guess if you're going to up your protein, as some in

the group have said

they do

(Quantie, for example) you'd better do it with non animal

sources.......

What about

dairy like FF yogurt, kefir, skim milk? And what about eggs? I

assume

" animal protein " means meat and fish only?
