I just eat meat ND the normal amount of fat that is naturally in it. I don't make it complicated or count fat and protein ratios. Our ancestors did it for a million years.
When I was on the vegan trip back in 2021 I too thought kidney beans where the thing. It left me with heavy bloating and cramps. But the worst thing was that grass powder. One day I thought it to a good idea to triple the recommended dosis. I felt like wanting to die that night. I just wanted to have it out of my digestive tract so badly. I will never do this again.
It was not explained that 100 gram of meat does NOT equal 100 gram protein. 100 gram meat contains only about 22 gram protein depending on the type of meat. The rest is fiber. Daily protein required for a 150 lb person is: Convert lb to kg: 150/2.2 = 68 kg Daily requirement = 0.8g per kg body weight: 0.8g X 68 = 55 gram protein. Grams of meat required to consume 55g protein = 55/.22 = 247grams of meat / fish
There is one essential problem- keto and carnivore people say 0.8-1g protein per 1lbs of your (wish) weight. It makes double of that in kg. Some simply say one needs about 100g protein per day. Dr Donald Layman has a calculator for protein. Judi from Nutrition with Judi has made wonderful tables for how many protein and calories one needs to not be undernourished. I think it was Judy.. if not, then it was Lilly. Worth watching both of them, anyway.
Some of you people are brutal! Why not just be grateful for a free educational video that teaches you something? If you only learn one thing, it's a win in my book.
Nobody can tell you exactly how much protein to eat. I base my protein intake on my activity level for the day. If I am doing strength training and going for a run on the same day I feel like I need a little more protein. Listen to your body! It will tell you .
I was really into fasting but now I have been spreading out my meals more. Most important point: get at least 30 g of protein at your first meal so you can switch from catabolism to anabolism.
I'd say get at least 30g in EACH meal, and make sure they're spaced apart. Per Gabrielle Lyon, the ideal would be five hours apart, but if doing 16/8, you could probably "get away with" 3 meals approximately four apart. I go back and forth between three and four meals, and don't do TRF every day, but when I do it's somewhere between 16/8 and 20/4, often 2MAD. I rarely eat OMAD, but I do skip whole days of eating on occasion.
I also think ya'll need to redefine "essential". Essential are those we cannot live without no matter where we get them. Would go along way to clearing up the confusion caused by suggesting that an essential are only those we don't synthesize.
Excellent presentation. I very much needed to know how much protein to consume. Now I know that I've been eating too much. Also, I need to eat earlier than I have been. Thank you for giving me some correction.
Just got out of hospital from having shock wave lithotripsy with a bleeding ulcer thrown for good measure. I have been keto and/or carnivore for over 3 1/2 years losts 70 pounds and kept them off. Reason I am commenting is the menus were terrible pudding, regular yogurt, jellos and maybe if you found 3 ounces of meat protein on your plate My family brought in bone broth to help me out some but my blood sugar level with just one testing was 5.7. Could that have been that high because of my pain? I didn’t eat over 4 for carbs per day. When are hospitals going to help us with diet instead of hurting us?
reminds me of arguing with the windowlicker that called himself a cancer doctor that was killing my father with kemo while giving him lots of sugar to FEED the cancer cells... as far as im concerned, that asshat should be publicly executed for murder... the worlds full of educated idiots
Oh I know. My husbands uncle just died of cancer. We saw him in the hospital and they had a feeding tube in him. He had it a few months. You know it spas sugar. It fed that tumor. I saw a nurse walking down the hall with a full sugar coke and a sandwich on a tray. Weather hers or jot it’s garbage. Hope you get well soon.
I don’t either know how I got a .5 kidney ulcer was induced by pain medication on a stomach that could not hold food down. So they finally got a handle on that. And I told them I was going eat anything that had carbs or sugar and today they sent a popsicle for my breakfast I rather starve then do that so I made a cup of soup and drank the broth so that’s after telling dietitian no sugar at all.
I don't like to criticize, but this method of reading down content in a steady flow makes it very hard for me to comprehend. I would much rather read this than listen to it.
Very informative!! I love the science. I've been carnivore for ~9 wks now, but measuring both glucose and ketones using KetoMojo and it's saying I'm usually not even in ketosis, which perplexes me since I'm eating zero carbs. I've wondered if I'm eating too much protein....I'd love a vid from you regarding glucose and insulin...I'm not sure I've seen one.
Finally some solid guidance, yet I do have more questions. How much protein in the subsequent meals? 30-60g? How much time should elapse between meals? What is an ideal overnight fast? I did OMAD for a quite a while and I lost a LOT of muscle mass while I was losing weight a few years ago. I think I stayed in that catabolic over night fasting state too long each day (23 hours). Too much at the OMAD, wasted. If I had it to do again I would not have done OMAD. I also lost a LOT of bone mass in 3 years.
U lost musclemass because u stayed at a defecit over a long time. Fast for 3/4 days, eat at maintainance or slightly higher on the 4th/5th. This is how u lose fat and very little muscle.
@@megajatt123I don't need to lose weight! Why does everyone assume someone needs to lose weight??? I lost all the weight I needed to lose and a lot of muscle and bone too.
@ellek6505 @ellek6505 i didnt mean to imply that u need to lose weight now. I was only telling u the correct way of losing mostly fat and little to no muscle mass- cyclic fasting:2/3 day of 0 calories, and 1 day of eating moderate protein (1.5-1.6 grams per kilo bodyweight)moderate fat low carb food.
Hi Sheryl, You said there are 3 macro nutrients, Fat, Protein & Carbs and that we NEED all 3 of these. I thought carbs are not NEEDed in regards to eating them but are more of a WANT. Did you mis-speak or am I mistaken. Thanks.
actually there are 4 macronutriments. Ethanol (7kcal/g and alcool chemical function) is not protein (4kcal/g and nitrogen), fat (9kcal/g and hydrophobic) or carbohydrates (4kcal/g)
What's the summary then? You are suggesting eating protein in the morning? Therefore would you say an intermittent fasting regime of breakfast+lunch is better for maintaining your muscles than a lunch+dinner regime?
For those who don't know, as I didn't, a rasher of bacon is a thinly sliced piece of bacon. So If you like thick bacon like me, two slices would be the equivalent to four rashers !
So, it doesn’t answer the question or give guidance as to how to figure it out for yourself. And at the end, it talks about breakfast, which Dr. Cywes says we can freely skip. Some mixed messaging there. And a frustrating video without any answers of any kind.
She said "first meal of the day." That is "breakfast," BREAK-FAST, no matter what time you eat it. Hence the little joke at the end about "breakfast." There was a lot of guidance in this video. She said no one can tell you precisely how much you need. The method of nitrogen balance is controversial, but is the best we have at present. (I think Dr Cywes uses this method.) Yes, you have to try some things and see how you do. First meal of the day should contain 30g complete protein to trigger the building of muscle tissue after a long period of overnight fasting, which means the body is in a catabolic state after a long fast. There was mention of evidence suggesting that the body can only use 30-60g in a meal for building muscle. She admitted that is a pretty big range--thus the high variability between people. Any excess protein/amino acids will be shunted to energy use/storage pathways (glucose/ketones, glycogen, fat). A person trying to build muscle or to prevent age-related muscle loss might eat 3-4 such meals per day. A person trying to lose weight might eat 2-3 such meals per day. Some people can do OMAD. I do wish she had touched on how much time should pass between meals, and how long the overnight fast should be, as a starting point, or how much protein should be in an OMAD. I suggest you listen again, take notes, stop and start the video as needed to take notes--that's what I did. I also watched the video 3 times so I didn't miss anything. Skip the protein educational stuff at the beginning if you're not interested in that, or in the progression of protein recommendations between the 1800's and today and the US current recommendation of 0.8g protein/kg body weight. But the bottom line, "all we have are guesses." The recommendations part of the video starts about 12 minutes. If you want more precise recommendations you need a consultation with Dr Cywes. (You had to know this video was going to mostly point to a plug to make an appointment.)
