      Liver is both rich in protein and iron. Alternatively, get it as paté if you don't like cooked/roasted liver. As a bonus, there is also a lot of vitamine A in liver, as well as B12, Riboflavin (B2) and copper. Pork, chicken, beef, lamb, goose or cod liver are all alternatives. ~100-110 gram of liver covers 33% of your needed iron intake.

    ONE THING YOU MISSED... every time people talk about protein ratio per body weight they never establish that it is based on a healthy body weight... If I am 250lbs but I really am meant to be about 150lbs I should calculate protein based on the 150 weight not the 250... everybody on here seems to just mention Xgrams per pound of body weight with no mention of excess weight and it is not that simple, so if you watched this and you need to lose 50-100-200 or more pounds you need to base it on the healthy body weight for your height and for most human beings that is likely to be some number under 200lbs when a man has a normal 15% body fat and a woman has around 20% give or take a couple of points.

Easily get your protein numbers up and never be hungry. 2.5 scoops a day, 60 grams protein, will last you 60 days.

    I came out of keto after 3 years (and strides in my health and fitness) and one of my favorite meals since then is spaghetti and ground beef. I was making spaghetti like you would see in pictures online, with tons of garnish and only a handful of ground beef. My satiety levels were very low, always having snacks afterwards and between meals. Over a couple months I slowly upped the ground beef to pasta ratio, this was actually out of laziness to add less of other ingredients. But I noticed the more ground beef I added, the less likely I was to snack. I now eat a 1:1 ratio (cooked size, not by weight) of ground beef to pasta and I feel very satiated after meals, having stopped snacking entirely.

    Beware judging protein as a generic macronutrient. Not all proteins are the same, and most non-animal proteins are not close to the right amino acid balance, causing more to be converted to glucose than would be optimal.
    I aim for at least 35g animal protein (which turns out to be roughly 150g of meat or six eggs) in every meal. Usually, I'll get twice that, and often three times. It depends on context. Being diabetic, I generally need to get plenty of fat to keep my glucose from spiking and staying high, though. Lean meat is out except just after my workout, when I have sous vide shrimp or white fish (no oils.) I also seem to benefit from getting some fiber, such as cruciferous veg.

    My son is autistic and I basically let him pick whatever he wants (within reason). There are days he wants only bread/pasta. Other days he will only eat meat. Sometimes it's a mix. His most recent food binge was grapes. It's really interesting to see his choices and fluctuations.

    I'm currently on a 100% carnivore diet, usually a chunk of chuck steak, two or three eggs, and 2-3 pieces of bacon. And I rarely need anything other than water for 24 hours. Usually if I do get hungry I keep some pork rinds or sardines on standby as usually I'm only hungry enough for a snack. So I can confirm the studies and everything stated is not false at least to satiation and making me feel better. And usually whenever I crave something outside the diet it usually isn't something sweet and often I just add some salt to my water and it kills the craving. Oh and I actively lose weight while changing nothing else.

    After a weight loss journey, I was ready to start regaining some mass (looked too lanky for my own standards) in the form of muscle. I was already in a low carb diet, but after doing some research, I raised the protein intake to the gold standard of 1g protein per pound of bodyweight (love mixing up measurement units), and damn! Since I'm currently in the volume gaining stage, at some points, I have to consciously make the effort to eat something because I'm aware I have yet to meet my maintenance +300 cals, if I'm hoping to get somewhere. Not hungry, sometimes not even cravings, consciously eat because "welp muscle gains will be slower otherwise".
    All thanks to real high protein intake.

    People don't listen to what marketers are flat out telling them, sometimes information hides in plain sight like how "I can't believe it's not butter" isn't butter, but a lot of people don't pay attention. In a similar way "processed food" isn't food, it started off as food, but it's processed. Poop is also 'processed food' as digestion is also a process. A lot of "processed food" has to have flavors added to make it taste like food again. If you wouldn't eat it without flavoring added you shouldn't be eating it at all.

    I recently switched from always eating a bagel with cream cheese and a fruit smoothie for breakfast on workdays to always eating a sit-down breakfast with eggs, potatoes, other vegetables or fruit, and a little bit of bread and butter. Now I no longer feel like I'm constantly starving. It takes a little more work to make and eat, but it's worth it. I'm probably even saving money because whole fruits and vegetables are cheaper than those smoothies.

      Your body uses amino acids to build and repair muscles and bones and to make hormones and enzymes.

    I am chronically ill and go to a clinic with several specialists who focus on helping you manage and hopefully improve quality of life. The diet specialist MD says that increased protein diets show benefits across the board for people with my conditions and now it's something they almost always recommend (exceptions of course for cases like kidney disease).

    Might just be my case, but I used to eat close to 2.5/2.9g kg when I was bulking up and I felt like my stream of pee was much much lower and less powerful. I thought at the time it was because I was dumping 2 huge protein shakes (one when waking up and one before bed) into my body. When I stopped this (bulk was finished) my pee stream was back to normal.

    I also heard about this recently from an episode of The Infinite Monkey Cage - that we eat until we've had enough protein - but they hinted that there was also such a thing as too much protein because of the increased cancer risk seen with the IGF-1 (Insulin-like growth factor 1). Have you heard of that and moreover, did any of the research you read address it?

    • @justjane1639
      @justjane1639 9 місяців тому +12

      Is that a real risk, or just a hypothetical one flogged by vegans? Because I haven't run across a cancer patient who is an avid meat eater. Quite the contrary lately.

      Anabolic states triggered by any food increase cancer risk. Carbohydrates make you eat more and more often (keeping you in an anabolic state), while protein satiates and, to the degree that it replaces carbohydrates, robs most cancerous growths from their preferred energy source and makes it easy to stay near a catabolic state.

      That hasn't been my experience--lately, I've encountered either vegans or people following a heavily-processed SAD diet. If I were diagnosed with cancer , I'd embrace a strict ketogenic diet with periodic fasting, going along with the metabolic theory of cancer, which emphasizes Otto Warburg's theory of cancer growth. I've seen people who have put their cancer in remission on the opposite of a vegan diet.
