      @drekberg, THANK YOU for covering a little about absorption! Hardly anyone does. A lot of us are getting leaky gut and it's cascading into autoimmun,malabsorption, thyroid, histamine, lethargy & other health problems. I need to learn how to supplement correctly so I actually get some of benefits. I moved into mostly carn-vore + some (low histamine)prebiotic foods and clearly am not absorbing as much as I should but at least now my sugar-carbs-seed oils are over with!

      What do you think about the people that say an all fruit and vegetable diet is enough. They say you dont need the protein, you just need the amino acids and that's enough to grow muscle and maintain. They argue that gorillas eat this way and are extremely strong animals. I'm a weight lifter, I cant imagine feeling well and gaining on an only fruit and veggie diet. What do you think?

    Being over 80, I need more protein to keep bone mass, trying to consume a min. of 100 g. per day. Yes, I’d like to lose 10 pounds, but keeping muscle is my highest priority. The protein increase shocked my bowels,but increasing fiber corrected constipation issue. Truth is aging requires working with balancing several concerns.

    • @pat4005
      @pat4005 4 місяці тому +18

      You most likely were not eating the needed amount of the animal fats along WITH the protein.
      Eating fiber is unnecessary.
      The change to eating less fiber was the problem. You probably shocked it because you did it all at once, not a little decrease at a time while adding the animal fats.
      I brought this up because you did not say that you were also getting the right amount of any animal fats along with the protein intake, at the same time, which leads me to believe that you do not know that you should be doing this!
      Fiber is just slowing down and clogging up your digestive tract.
      Eating animal protein AND the necessary amount of animal fat will allow your body's intestinal tract to heal and absorb it.
      Eating fiber that will never be used for anything is foolish.
      You don't need fiber to push out anything other than more of itself because the animal protein AND animal fat WILL BE BROKEN-DOWN AND ABSORBED!
      And of course drinking enough water to keep hydrated throughout the day, (no matter what you eat), is what will keep you free from constipation.

    Good information to help see there could be other reasons for protein deficiency. For me as an older person who eats quite healthily (no sugar, processed foods or gluten), it has taken awhile to realize my stomach acid wasn't doing a good job breaking down my food. I have now been adding about 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to 2 tablespoons of olive oil which I drink as I begin to eat a meal. It has made a big difference in how I feel after eating (hardly any bloating) and am gradually noticing how much better I feel overall -- I guess more nutrients are being utilized as the foods are being broken down so much better. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge to guide us to better health.

    After my heart attack several years ago, the cardiologists wanted me to reduce protein intake to reduce cholesterol. At 6-7 oz per day I was having a number of the issues listed here. Then my regular doctor did a fasting blood sugar test and found I was pre diabetic. Did some research and realized, I'd been eating too many simple carbs and too much sugar over the years. The diet they had me on with all the fruit and grains was not helping.
    Then I saw Dr. Sean O'Mara's presentations on visceral fat, and read several studies showing insulin resistance is as much, if not more of a cause of hardening arteries than cholesterol. My subQ fat was pretty low. Shifting back to more good proteins, much less simple carbs, and eliminating sugar had an amazing result. My subQ fat that was already low stayed the same yet, I lost 3 inches in my waist. All visceral fat. No. I don't do a carnivore diet, but I do eat more protein, mostly slow digesting complex carbs, and now use nuts for my snacks when I want something, not carbs.
    The increase in protein also eliminated or at least reduced some of the issues shown here that started with the low protein diet they had me on. Am in the process of learning what the best balance for my body is.

    Don’t eat while at work ! I have a very stressful work like all healthcare jobs and I realized every single dam time I eat someth even no sugar no carbs , my glucose goes nuts . I tested many times. Stress doesn’t let you process food properly, and no wonder absorption of protein is affected too. I drink my protein shakes at work but I will stop doing that . I’d rather wake up at 6 am have an hour of relaxing time to have brkfast and protein shake couple if hours before going work.

    There are some 20-22 different amino acids that combine into polypeptides, aka proteins, and there are _a lot_ of different possible combinations of which over a hundred thousand are used by the human body, divided into seven types; antibodies, contractile, enzymes, hormonal, structural, storage and transport.
    Therefore, eating otherwise sufficient _quantities_ of "protein", depending on the types of protein, we can still end up with amino acid deficiencies which in turn can result in protein deficiencies..

    they explain for exemple 1) the cow do not eat meat but only grass and it has no problem to create proteins for its body, 2) our intestine is like intestine of cow, it is very long and it is not a carnivore intestine which are much shorter and therefore the meat takes too long to pass the human intestines and in the meantime creates putrefaction et toxins, What do you respond to these observations ?

      It is the government’s in with big pharmaceutical companies that are scaring the public about how bad and evil red meat is. Yet many of the government officials eat red meat themselves. They say not to use gas in car or drive SUV because of the ‘’climate crisis’’ They often fly around the world in private jets that cause far more pollution than 1 car does. Big Pharma makes money if we are sick, They donate lots of $$$$$ to American Heart Association. Doctors and cardiologists try put almost very patient (over a certain age) on statin drugs, $$$ for big pharma. Diabetes is the big reason for heart issues and not red meat. There are cardiologists on UA-cam here that are carnivores as well or low carb and they say too many carbs are biggest reason for heart disease due to carbs having being hugely responsible for people developing diabetes.
