I never thought adding more protein to my diet was gonna make a difference on my body but I was wrong. After 2-3 months on the high protein diet I immediately noticed that my muscles were more defined and bigger. And for some reason my body is loosing more fat while gaining more muscle mass. Before, I always try to cut down on carbs and sweets since I gain body fat fast , then hard for me to burn all that off even with intense cardio. But now that I added more protein to my diet, my body reacts different. All I can say is that it really made a difference. I feel and see the results and continues to surprise me every day.
Low impact cardio is best for losing fat. When we intensely exercise our body uses carbs as energy. When we do low impact cardio like walking/incline walking and make sure we are in a calorie deficit, you'll see the weight fall off you.

Im a type one diabetic as of 16 years now. Ive recently taken on a high protein low carb/sugar diet. Ive implemented keto protein shakes, with a keto protein coffee in the mornings or before work. I walk to work, a mile one way. Higher protein meats, low bread/carb/starch/fatty foods for my meals. My hemoglobin A1C is currently 11.2. My blood sugar averaging around 350. Recently, after starting this new diet, my sugars are now more commonly in the low 100s range. Still working on cutting out sweets and soda. They are the bane of my life. But ive already shown great results in just a couple days with just my blood sugar.
We have also had free school lunches(From preschool to the end of studies at eventual Universities) since the 60's here in Sweden and the "outcome" was fewer students quitting school and that the students ended up with higher income later in life. It's a really good model to take after. Cheers 💌🤫

@@rosebainbridge1474 Sure, I've watched it, but where is the science that says high protein is better for blood glucose control than fat?? I'm in my 60's and don't mind protein for muscle maintenance, but egg whites and low fat yoghurt? Not on my life would I support that market again! In the beginning Annika Dahlkvist recommended adding an extra yolk to your omelette, now it's an extra white? Come on..
I’m amazed at just how freaked out some people are over the idea of adding in more protein via lower fat yogurt and egg whites. I think it is pretty clear he was talking about adding in extra protein without the added fat, IF your goal is to lose more weight. If you are happy with your weight as is, go for it. But just take a deep breath and pay attention to the whole message. My two cents.
Each person is different and they are offering different avenues. If HIGH fat LOW carb MODERATE protein is working for you just keep doing it. I was eating way too much fat and little protein and stopped losing wait. Once I hit my weight goal then I will increase my fat intake again. Best of luck everyone!
Same here! No lowfat yogurt in THIS house! In fact, we're whipping coconut oil into our whole milk Greek yogurt, to make the fat percentage even higher.
Bunny Biedenharn “now or no”. Fat has no real nutrition but of course the good fats are necessary. But not too much for me. Overwhelming fats supply no real nutrition like a good meat and eggs which also gives me fats, fiber and protein. I do better with normal daily intake of fats attached to the protein food I’m eating or good salad dressings avocado. Some butter and cheese. I don’t eat fat just for fats sake or hit a macro. Cheers!
I have Kwashiorkor disease from malabsorption and need to eat 2-3 times the daily requirement for protein, iron and essential minerals. I eat -8 small meals/snacks a day, when I can keep food down. Unfortunately I also have chronic nausea too. Hopefully one day I will be healthy enough to survive open heart surgery. Protein is important, make sure you get enough.
You should have a protein per day recommendation instead of per meal. Also, why would eat egg whites? The yolk has all the nutrition. When did "Diet Doctor" become an anti-fat website?
Egg whites simply have more protein % than egg yolks, because the yolks have more fat. It’s a % statement, whites have more protein than yolks, because yolks have additional fat, as healthy as that fat may be. He didn’t say don’t eat eggs or don’t eat egg yolks.
Thank you for your feedback. There is a great guide on our website about high protein that goes into much more detail, including per day protein recommendations and other lists of high protein foods. www.dietdoctor.com/high-protein
@@williamwallaceg2627 I understand that a white has most of the protein and only has 17 calories vs 55 calories for the yolk, but even including in 4 yolks will only be 220 calories. Also the yolks are one of most nutrient dense and satiating foods possible. I just feel like it is unnecessary to go out of your way to just add egg whites.

After 3 years on a low carb/keto diet I have found that there is an optimum level of protein intake for me, definitely not "the more the better". When I am getting too much protein I see gluconeogenesis increase and my blood glucose goes up and ketones drop. I try not to exceed my optimim protein intake as it seems to be counter productive.
I’m trying to eat more protein. But I’m just full, if I really try I might get up to 90 grams/day. Went from strict keto to focusing on protein, still low carb, and moderate fat. I eat as much as I can, but still only land on approx 1000-1200 kcal/day.
This is one reason why Andreas is talking about protein percentage. Foods like egg whites and lower fat yogurt have less fat so they aren't as filling. Because they are less filling, you can eat more which means you've increased your protein both in percentage of calories and in total amount.
It's very easy to add a couple of protein shakes into your day. Premier Protein is only 11.5 oz, has 30 grams of protein and1 gram of sugar per shake. They are delicious when chilled and shaken before drinking. I like the chocolate and caramel flavors.
High Protein is a deceptive term. The western diet is less than 15% of calories per protein. So anything over 15% is high by the common reference point. Rabbit Starvation occurs when protein % is in the 90's. So anything less than rabbit starvation is by definition low protein since rabbit starvation is high protein. You have to eat the leanest of animal flesh to get to 90%. It also takes time to get the sympy symptoms. Most people will not like prolonged eating of 90% Protein. So it is virtually impossible to eat a high protein diet unless you force yourself. Eat a variety of Animal flesh from surf or turf.
16%. "For a relatively active adult, a daily protein intake to meet the RDA would supply as little as 10% of his or her total daily calories. In comparison, the average American consumes around 16% of his or her daily calories in the form of protein, from both plant and animal sources."
I am surprised that low fat, egg whites and “lean” meat where mentioned. I have lost weight and feel great with high fat and low carb. Now I’m trying to increase protein, but do not want to low fat.
You can increase your protein without going low fat. Our high protein meals still have 60% calories from fat and may work well for you. www.dietdoctor.com/high-protein/recipes

Yeah I was surprised about the egg white bit as well. What do you do with the yolk, there is only so much Mayo one can make. Meatballs I guess. But the lean meat mention may be for a clearer idea of the protein. It is easier to calculate, but yeah you can estimate from a fattier bit, it just weighs more.
Doc, So why do I feel more hungrier after eating just meats? I just want to eat and eat again after a full protein meal. Been getting sugar cravings too, though am on pure keto for 5 mths and became more carnivore since 3 mths, no dairy products and vegetables as I was told that carnivore (meats only) help me lose faster. I lost quite a bit but these intense cravings are tormenting me like crazy! I want to eat something sweet still. I take Invega 3 , got off Gabapentin last month but these sugar cravings have been torturous despite eating pure protein cooked in grassfed ghee only. I drink electrolytes daily ( sweetened with stevia); could the Stevia trigger these INTENSE sugar cravings? I started magnesium citrate to calm my cravings but of no avail. I am on carnivore/keto for prediabetes and NAFL stage 1. Lost 50 pds and have 15 more to lose. Please advise about why I get these crazy crazy sugar cravings still , thanks much!
Did you consider the intake of more fat.. how much fat are you eating. Often the cravings will get better...I am eating high percentage chocolate +85% or berries for cravings. You should give yourself time and try all variations. A food program which doesn't suit you will only be abandoned. That would be a pity. Carnivore/keto should serve you - not the other way around.
@@dietdoctor Thanks for your response, Doc. So even Stevia can trigger insulin and not burn fat and cause my sugar cravings? I thought stevia is not bad as sugar alcohol trigger. I drink this electrolyte everyday. As it is way too sweet for me, I have started adding a teaspoon of ACV. Still sugar cravings are killing me. I tried the plain electrolytes and they taste bad, and if I dont take electrolytes, I get lightheaded and headaches , so got to drink this on the meats only diet. Not sure where I am going wrong.

Recent studies seem to point to high-protein diets as contributing to plaque burden in soft arterial plaques (the soft, unstable plaques are unstable and are prone to rupture, which results in a potentially deadly blood clot). I haven't read these studies myself - I've just seen other UA-cam doctors discuss them. What are your thoughts on this?
Hello there. I am not a doctor but I am a Registered Nurse of 6 years & current nurse practitioner student. I haven’t read any articles or research regarding your question. I do know that it’s important to opt for leaner sources when increasing protein. Also increasing fiber intake (fruits, veggies) & low impact cardio such as walking & cycling will significantly lower risk of accumulating plaques in the arteries. Hope this helps ☺️
I noticed there was a type 1 diabetic making a comment! Andreas perhaps you need to differentiate between type one and type 2, as what is good for type 2 is not the same as type 1
For Lent (46 days, including Sundays) I stop drinking beer (1,000 calories/day). This year I intend to reduce, maybe eliminate carbs. Is almond milk/protein powder OK? Maybe throw a banana in, or will that throw things off? Tentatively, I'm thinking bacon and eggs for breakfast, the aforementioned shake for lunch, and steak/chicken/salmon for dinner. Also, what about nuts? For a snack here and there?
Thank you for this interesting video. So, compared to original Keto, now you suggest that it is better to increase protein ? Increasing protein, as a percentage of macro-nutrients, it means that the fat should be decreased ? Dr, I think it would be nice to explain what made you change the 20 year-old keto diet to high-protein.
I think it's more for people trying to lose fat. In essence it's still a high fat diet only your 'eating' your body stores of saturated fat. A good hack to lose the final few pounds.
When you first go Keto, and in the first few months you really need to assist the transition from sugar-burner to fat-burner. After you‘ve stabilized your Ketosis, depending on how much weight (external or visceral fat) you need to lose. We are still talking healthy fats, but just enough protein too. The reason behind this, is that most people generally don‘t eat enough protein. Then they start losing bone and muscle mass. I sometimes think lots if people change from Keto to Ketovore or Carnivore at some point. Unless of course you‘re on a Vegitarian-Keto plan. The more the merrier I say 🤓

According to David Sinclair, and Wellness Messiah and others, high protein diets will turn on mTor, and if we want to live as long as possible we need to keep mTor turned off. We can keep it turned off by eating a maximum of about 50 grams of protein a day. It's a pretty tough balance to stay on keto and keep protein that low.
Franziska Spritzler, RD, addressed this in the comments on her article about healthy aging on our website. "Franziska Spritzler, RD Team Diet Doctor ...I can understand the confusion about protein, when opinions from experts vary so much. Although a lower-protein diet may potentially increase lifespan slightly (and that isn't certain), the tradeoff is likely to be loss of muscle, bone, increased risk of falls, and poor healing. Most research demonstrates that eating more protein, rather than less, helps us maintain strength and vitality as we age. I'd rather have a long, healthy, independent life rather than a slightly longer one where I may be frail and dependent on others." www.dietdoctor.com/healthy-aging-with-a-high-protein-diet
@@dietdoctor Let's say you eat a low-fat meal. You're going to spike insulin more than a meal with more fat. People need to understand that, and selling them on lean meat is a disservice unless they understand that, and the purpose of choosing lean meat. I eat lean meat at exactly one time: my first meal after resistance training. This is because I'm deliberately spiking my insulin at that moment only, so my muscles absorb the protein. I'm back into ketosis that same evening (if I actually wasn't in ketosis for a short period.) PS: I also do resistance training fasted so I'm highly insulin sensitive at the time and I have the lean meat with more carbs than usual (like zoodles, from a starchy vegetable), to enhance the insulin spike. Thus, the fat would not get metabolized in that meal, and there's no point in that. It's implicit that most people who are watching are trying to figure out how to lower their insulin, so telling them to eat lean meat is a disservice. At best, they should eat the lean meat with a considerable amount of healthy fat, in most cases. Actually, in most cases, they're better off eating the meat with its natural fat.
It is possible to eat a high-protein version of a keto diet! We have recipes and a great guide on our website. www.dietdoctor.com/high-protein/recipes www.dietdoctor.com/high-protein
Almost all animal foods are high in protein. Even most fatty cuts of meat are mostly protein. The only exceptions I can think of offhand is bone broth and bacon.
You can still enjoy a low carb, high fat diet yet incorporate occasional low fat foods in order to maximize protein percentage. As you can see from our high protein meals, they are not low fat. If traditional keto is working well for you, there's no need to change anything. www.dietdoctor.com/high-protein/recipes

“A deck of cards” is a common way to visually reference a set amount of protein. I’m not always eating at home where I can weigh my food to get exactly oz amounts. It’s more of an “educated guess” way to manage amounts.

3 questions please... I still worry about higher aninal based protein can spike mTor, decrease telomere length and increase overall cellular aging. What do you think? Outside of bone health and frailty, is this an anti aging longevity supporting recommendation or just one for weight loss? Also if aiming to gain weight (whilst bring severely underweight) should I still aim for 100g per day even though it would work out more than 2g per kg of current weight? What blood markers would indicate poor kidney or liver health that would be a concern meaning a high protein diet is not advisable?
Thank you for your questions. You can read more about high protein, including the answers to these questions in our comprehensive guide. www.dietdoctor.com/high-protein
@@dietdoctor this is very helpful thank you. But it doesnt say if the 1-2g per kg is for current or target weight if aiming to gain. It also doesnt say how to know if your kidneys are healthy or not I.e. the biomarkers that would indicate any causes for concern to seek a second opinion before continuing high protein diets.
Love what you guys do, but saying you get 30g in a 3.5oz serving of chicken is confusing because it mixes two measurement systems. Perhaps saying you get 30g of protein in 100g of chicken would be better, even for USA, as it gives a direct % to work to. Also, why use chicken as an example? Tends to be inferior to red meat as far as protein quantity and meat quality goes (what they are fed and the resultant nutrients). And finally, we are accidentally getting a low-fat message (eg eat low fat yoghurt!!!). While that does have a higher percentage of protein, it's better to recommend full-fat dairy, surely?
Keep in mind that just because you’re eating some low-fat foods doesn’t mean you’re eating a low-fat diet. This is a way for some to incorporate higher protein in their meals.

Just want to give a thumb up to for the inclusion of vegan/vegetarian options and not being dismissive of plant based diets.
I thought people had got over all that "low fat" dairy thing?
Yep, we seem to be going back to low fat dairy and egg whites...
The foods listed are higher in protein percentage than their counterparts. If you're doing well with full fat dairy, there's no need to change anything up!
It's because they're using protein percentage per Calorie and you can only achieve that if the fat percentage is low.
Haha, my thoughts too! ANYTHING LOWFAT OR EGGS WITHOUT EGG YOLKS IS BAAAAD, is the blaring new slogan! It’s changing so constantly!
@@alivepalm1060 yeh, if your gonna eat dairy and eggs, eat the full fat option (ie real food), just use less added fat
What happened to Low Carb High Fat? Have you converted from the optimal diet? Confused...
Ted Naiman brainwashed him.
Even our high-protein recipes are still getting more than 50% of their calories from fat. These are not low fat meals. The list of foods given are foods that are higher in protein percentage, not the only thing you can eat. Check out our amazing high-protein recipe collection for more inspiration!

@@rosebainbridge1474 Sure, I've watched it, but where is the science that says high protein is better for blood glucose control than fat?? I'm in my 60's and don't mind protein for muscle maintenance, but egg whites and low fat yoghurt? Not on my life would I support that market again! In the beginning Annika Dahlkvist recommended adding an extra yolk to your omelette, now it's an extra white? Come on..
I’m amazed at just how freaked out some people are over the idea of adding in more protein via lower fat yogurt and egg whites. I think it is pretty clear he was talking about adding in extra protein without the added fat, IF your goal is to lose more weight. If you are happy with your weight as is, go for it. But just take a deep breath and pay attention to the whole message. My two cents.
I will continue enjoying my HIGH fat LOW carb MODERATE protein lifestyle. Never been leaner or healthier.
Each person is different and they are offering different avenues. If HIGH fat LOW carb MODERATE protein is working for you just keep doing it. I was eating way too much fat and little protein and stopped losing wait. Once I hit my weight goal then I will increase my fat intake again. Best of luck everyone!
I used to think that, until I found out I wasn't getting enough protein.
Same here! No lowfat yogurt in THIS house! In fact, we're whipping coconut oil into our whole milk Greek yogurt, to make the fat percentage even higher.
Rogeria Hetrick same for me.
Bunny Biedenharn “now or no”. Fat has no real nutrition but of course the good fats are necessary. But not too much for me. Overwhelming fats supply no real nutrition like a good meat and eggs which also gives me fats, fiber and protein. I do better with normal daily intake of fats attached to the protein food I’m eating or good salad dressings avocado. Some butter and cheese. I don’t eat fat just for fats sake or hit a macro. Cheers!
low fat? never again.
I have Kwashiorkor disease from malabsorption and need to eat 2-3 times the daily requirement for protein, iron and essential minerals. I eat -8 small meals/snacks a day, when I can keep food down. Unfortunately I also have chronic nausea too. Hopefully one day I will be healthy enough to survive open heart surgery. Protein is important, make sure you get enough.
Omg! Are you okay now? I have celiac. Due to that I have developed malabsorption too
You should have a protein per day recommendation instead of per meal. Also, why would eat egg whites? The yolk has all the nutrition. When did "Diet Doctor" become an anti-fat website?
Egg whites simply have more protein % than egg yolks, because the yolks have more fat. It’s a % statement, whites have more protein than yolks, because yolks have additional fat, as healthy as that fat may be. He didn’t say don’t eat eggs or don’t eat egg yolks.
Thank you for your feedback. There is a great guide on our website about high protein that goes into much more detail, including per day protein recommendations and other lists of high protein foods.
www.dietdoctor.com/high-protein
@@williamwallaceg2627 I understand that a white has most of the protein and only has 17 calories vs 55 calories for the yolk, but even including in 4 yolks will only be 220 calories. Also the yolks are one of most nutrient dense and satiating foods possible. I just feel like it is unnecessary to go out of your way to just add egg whites.
@@williamwallaceg2627 yeah but why encourage people to eat egg whites. Goddess didn’t give us egg whites only
How about protein supplements? Protein drinks or protein water? I definitely cannot eat 120g if protein everyday. It’s way too much for me.
Your voice makes it even better yes protein
Dr Eenfledt i've been watching your vids for a while and always great content but disagree about eating cold cuts as a high protein snack. Most store bought cold cuts are too processed to be considered healthy in my opinion.

About 30g per meal assumes three meals a day. Better is roughly 1g of protein per pounds of ideal body weight. I never have cravings when I keep my protein above 130g.
🤯why are you mixing pounds and grams??? Why can't you stick to one system of measurement ?
Because he is talking about grams of protein and pounds of body weight. Would you rather he said body weight in kilograms?
@@VintageLilacMemories that's obvious but still utterly inconsistent. Either use SI units or Imperial. If you want to retain your own way of measuring body weight, create your own tortured way of weighing tiny amount
@@cassieoz1702 as a Canadian MY way is metric, however is it pretty universal in North America to refer to body weight in pounds. Since it bothered you enough to comment so snidely, I suggest you take a break from the Internet. You come across as an ass.
@@VintageLilacMemories ah, and so many folks are just so superior. I don't really care what folks want to use but, given the asmount of crap some Americans have heaped on the metric system, just be consistent. If I hadn't read so much anti-metric stuff it likely wouldn't have irked me.
After 3 years on a low carb/keto diet I have found that there is an optimum level of protein intake for me, definitely not "the more the better". When I am getting too much protein I see gluconeogenesis increase and my blood glucose goes up and ketones drop. I try not to exceed my optimim protein intake as it seems to be counter productive.
@Steve Chung it varies on whether it contains a complete essential amino profile and what your body needs to cycle
@@OatmealTheCrazyI see. How does complete amino acids help in regards to protein intake?
I’m trying to eat more protein. But I’m just full, if I really try I might get up to 90 grams/day. Went from strict keto to focusing on protein, still low carb, and moderate fat. I eat as much as I can, but still only land on approx 1000-1200 kcal/day.
This is one reason why Andreas is talking about protein percentage. Foods like egg whites and lower fat yogurt have less fat so they aren't as filling. Because they are less filling, you can eat more which means you've increased your protein both in percentage of calories and in total amount.
It's very easy to add a couple of protein shakes into your day. Premier Protein is only 11.5 oz, has 30 grams of protein and1 gram of sugar per shake. They are delicious when chilled and shaken before drinking. I like the chocolate and caramel flavors.
High Protein is a deceptive term. The western diet is less than 15% of calories per protein. So anything over 15% is high by the common reference point.
Rabbit Starvation occurs when protein % is in the 90's. So anything less than rabbit starvation is by definition low protein since rabbit starvation is high protein. You have to eat the leanest of animal flesh to get to 90%. It also takes time to get the sympy symptoms.
Most people will not like prolonged eating of 90% Protein. So it is virtually impossible to eat a high protein diet unless you force yourself. Eat a variety of Animal flesh from surf or turf.
16%. "For a relatively active adult, a daily protein intake to meet the RDA would supply as little as 10% of his or her total daily calories. In comparison, the average American consumes around 16% of his or her daily calories in the form of protein, from both plant and animal sources."
Shut up please
I am surprised that low fat, egg whites and “lean” meat where mentioned. I have lost weight and feel great with high fat and low carb. Now I’m trying to increase protein, but do not want to low fat.
You can increase your protein without going low fat. Our high protein meals still have 60% calories from fat and may work well for you.
www.dietdoctor.com/high-protein/recipes
Yeah I was surprised about the egg white bit as well. What do you do with the yolk, there is only so much Mayo one can make. Meatballs I guess. But the lean meat mention may be for a clearer idea of the protein. It is easier to calculate, but yeah you can estimate from a fattier bit, it just weighs more.
GRACIAS DOCTOR POR SU EXCELENTE I FORMACION. S8EMPRE RECOMIENDO SU PAGINA A LOA PACIENTES DE HABLA HISPANA!!
I wish Levels and Diet Doctor would collaborate.
Doc,
So why do I feel more hungrier after eating just meats? I just want to eat and eat again after a full protein meal. Been getting sugar cravings too, though am on pure keto for 5 mths and became more carnivore since 3 mths, no dairy products and vegetables as I was told that carnivore (meats only) help me lose faster. I lost quite a bit but these intense cravings are tormenting me like crazy! I want to eat something sweet still. I take Invega 3 , got off Gabapentin last month but these sugar cravings have been torturous despite eating pure protein cooked in grassfed ghee only. I drink electrolytes daily ( sweetened with stevia); could the Stevia trigger these INTENSE sugar cravings? I started magnesium citrate to calm my cravings but of no avail. I am on carnivore/keto for prediabetes and NAFL stage 1. Lost 50 pds and have 15 more to lose. Please advise about why I get these crazy crazy sugar cravings still , thanks much!
Doc, I appreciate your response to my question as I am diligently following the high protein diet.
Did you consider the intake of more fat.. how much fat are you eating. Often the cravings will get better...I am eating high percentage chocolate +85% or berries for cravings. You should give yourself time and try all variations. A food program which doesn't suit you will only be abandoned. That would be a pity. Carnivore/keto should serve you - not the other way around.
You may want to try eliminating the sweetener to see if that helps.
@@dietdoctor Thanks for your response, Doc. So even Stevia can trigger insulin and not burn fat and cause my sugar cravings? I thought stevia is not bad as sugar alcohol trigger. I drink this electrolyte everyday. As it is way too sweet for me, I have started adding a teaspoon of ACV. Still sugar cravings are killing me. I tried the plain electrolytes and they taste bad, and if I dont take electrolytes, I get lightheaded and headaches , so got to drink this on the meats only diet. Not sure where I am going wrong.

@@michaeloni1642 I took a Keto made Simple class by Dr Eric Westman and Amy Berger who are keto experts.

Dr. Eric Westman learned his measures from Dr. Atkins and meats are unlimited and fats are upto 6 tablespoons per day only. Dr. Westman does not have electrolyte in his list, but as I feel lightheaded and have headaches even after 5 months on this diet, I have been using Dr. Eric Berg’s electrolyte to keep me going on keto, dont know the answer but if the Stevia also can cause intense sugar cravings?

Recent studies seem to point to high-protein diets as contributing to plaque burden in soft arterial plaques (the soft, unstable plaques are unstable and are prone to rupture, which results in a potentially deadly blood clot). I haven't read these studies myself - I've just seen other UA-cam doctors discuss them. What are your thoughts on this?
Hello there. I am not a doctor but I am a Registered Nurse of 6 years & current nurse practitioner student. I haven’t read any articles or research regarding your question. I do know that it’s important to opt for leaner sources when increasing protein. Also increasing fiber intake (fruits, veggies) & low impact cardio such as walking & cycling will significantly lower risk of accumulating plaques in the arteries. Hope this helps ☺️
Good presentation - is hard cheese also a good protein

For Lent (46 days, including Sundays) I stop drinking beer (1,000 calories/day). This year I intend to reduce, maybe eliminate carbs. Is almond milk/protein powder OK?

Thank you for this interesting video. So, compared to original Keto, now you suggest that it is better to increase protein ? Increasing protein, as a percentage of macro-nutrients, it means that the fat should be decreased ? Dr, I think it would be nice to explain what made you change the 20 year-old keto diet to high-protein.
I think it's more for people trying to lose fat. In essence it's still a high fat diet only your 'eating' your body stores of saturated fat. A good hack to lose the final few pounds.
When you first go Keto, and in the first few months you really need to assist the transition from sugar-burner to fat-burner. After you‘ve stabilized your Ketosis, depending on how much weight (external or visceral fat) you need to lose. We are still talking healthy fats, but just enough protein too. The reason behind this, is that most people generally don‘t eat enough protein. Then they start losing bone and muscle mass. I sometimes think lots if people change from Keto to Ketovore or Carnivore at some point. Unless of course you‘re on a Vegitarian-Keto plan. The more the merrier I say 🤓

I disagree with the low fat dairy and egg whites, but I understand people with gallbladder problems may need to be careful with fats
According to David Sinclair, and Wellness Messiah and others, high protein diets will turn on mTor, and if we want to live as long as possible we need to keep mTor turned off. We can keep it turned off by eating a maximum of about 50 grams of protein a day. It's a pretty tough balance to stay on keto and keep protein that low.
Franziska Spritzler, RD, addressed this in the comments on her article about healthy aging on our website.
"Franziska Spritzler, RD Team Diet Doctor
...I can understand the confusion about protein, when opinions from experts vary so much. Although a lower-protein diet may potentially increase lifespan slightly (and that isn't certain), the tradeoff is likely to be loss of muscle, bone, increased risk of falls, and poor healing. Most research demonstrates that eating more protein, rather than less, helps us maintain strength and vitality as we age. I'd rather have a long, healthy, independent life rather than a slightly longer one where I may be frail and dependent on others."

I find the repeated use of the term "low fat" to be disturbing. For the best success, eat the foods with all the fat they naturally have.
Keep in mind that just because you’re eating some low-fat foods doesn’t mean you’re eating a low fat diet.
@@dietdoctor Let's say you eat a low-fat meal. You're going to spike insulin more than a meal with more fat. People need to understand that, and selling them on lean meat is a disservice unless they understand that, and the purpose of choosing lean meat.
I eat lean meat at exactly one time: my first meal after resistance training. This is because I'm deliberately spiking my insulin at that moment only, so my muscles absorb the protein. I'm back into ketosis that same evening (if I actually wasn't in ketosis for a short period.)
PS: I also do resistance training fasted so I'm highly insulin sensitive at the time and I have the lean meat with more carbs than usual (like zoodles, from a starchy vegetable), to enhance the insulin spike. Thus, the fat would not get metabolized in that meal, and there's no point in that. It's implicit that most people who are watching are trying to figure out how to lower their insulin, so telling them to eat lean meat is a disservice. At best, they should eat the lean meat with a considerable amount of healthy fat, in most cases. Actually, in most cases, they're better off eating the meat with its natural fat.

@@littlevoice_11 It's based on current. If you have bad kidneys, monitor them, regardless of what you're eating. Protein won't make them worse.

@@littlevoice_11 First you ask your GP, and if he is concerned, he'll send you to a nephrologist (been there, done that.)
Love what you guys do, but saying you get 30g in a 3.5oz serving of chicken is confusing because it mixes two measurement systems. Perhaps saying you get 30g of protein in 100g of chicken would be better, even for USA, as it gives a direct % to work to. Also, why use chicken as an example? Tends to be inferior to red meat as far as protein quantity and meat quality goes (what they are fed and the resultant nutrients). And finally, we are accidentally getting a low-fat message (eg eat low fat yoghurt!!!). While that does have a higher percentage of protein, it's better to recommend full-fat dairy, surely?
Keep in mind that just because you’re eating some low-fat foods doesn’t mean you’re eating a low-fat diet. This is a way for some to incorporate higher protein in their meals.
