I've just been watching a Ted Naiman video on dietdoctor.com about protein intake. He says that if you are obese, unfit, diabetic type 2 or older then you need more protein. Lean, thin, young people are okay with 15% protein but the others, as above, need 30%. He says up to 1 gram protein to 1lb body weight - not lean weight - the nearer to that the better - as long as carbs are kept very low. His favourite foods are steak and eggs as they have equal protein to fat - which in terms of clories gives a 2:1 fat:protein.
Something for me to think about.
I've also been told that as a 63 year old - pushing 64 I should try to consolidate my weight at about 75 kilos - using 24-48 hour fasting for autophagy.
