Topic	Diet/workout experts - does protein really make a difference?
Xenozoa425 06/30/21 12:49:42 PM #185:	Turtlebread posted... theres just too much evidence that contradicts you dude eating more than 0.6g of protein per kg of bodyweight isnt going to do anything to your kidneys, in fact you can safely eat up to 2g/kg https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26797090/ A guy earlier in the thread already posted a link that proved my point about adequate (low) protein vs high protein. Njolk posted... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29405780/ Here is a scientific study that proves this guy wrong. 0.9g/kg a day (more than he recommended) group put on 1/4th as much muscle as the 2g/kg group Xenozoa425 posted... If anything, the study perfectly proves my point. Both groups lost fat mass and gained lean muscle. The LP group still gained over 1lb of lean mass and lost roughly 2.5lbs of fat. Even for a lower amount closer to what is recommended by health authorities, that is an impressive feat for a female in just 8 weeks. And at the end, the article states there were no differences in strength improvements between the two groups. There's no real benefit to eating a huge excess of protein. Getting a fit body should not be a race or a contest. You shouldn't be rushing and trying to achieve the best results as quickly as possible. The best results always come with steady progress. Cutting corners is not a good idea. Quality matters over quantity for the short-term and long-term. Most of us are not competitive professional athletes, we don't need ungodly amounts of food and have time to train every single day. We should be more modest, yet strict, with our diets and regiments. --- "Let food be thy medicine." -Hippocrates <cite>Xenozoa425 posted [p:955600823] in Diet/worko...
