Is A Low Carb High Protein Diet Really Effective For Weight Loss?
When I first heard that I thought ... wait a minute, the same thing
that is going to make you taller is supposed to make you "smaller"
... I asked Coach that question and he looked at me puzzled, but it left
me wondering. ... “Besides sounding absurd, is this method really
safe?
While we all know that we need a certain
amount of protein every day for good health - and because of the hype about it,
many people consider consuming protein-rich foods like meat on a daily
basis. and dairy products as very beneficial. However, judging by
the failure of most, if not all, of the people I have personally met who are
trying to lose weight on a high protein, low carbohydrate diet, it might be
about time. to review our ideas about proteins. .
Not only is a high protein diet NOT the best for weight loss, according to many
naturopathic practitioners such a diet can even adversely affect overall
health.
Due to their complexity, excess protein as well as fatty foods are the most
difficult foods to digest and tend to tire you out all the time.
Additionally, the common rotting of proteins during digestion creates too many
acids in the body and is known to lay the foundation for cancer.
This does not mean that proteins and fats should be avoided, on the contrary,
the goal when consuming these foods should be to eat exactly what the body
needs and nothing else. The Max Planck Institute has shown that since the
body recycles most of its protein for its own needs, 25g of protein per day is
more than enough.
According to T.C. Fry, a well-known naturopath and pioneer in drug-free
healing, there are several cultures, like the Caribbean, that thrive on a
cassava (tuber) diet and get around 12g of protein per day. Likewise, an
aboriginal tribe living in the Hagen Mountains were found to live about 80-90%
of their diet consisting of sweet potatoes, with the rest mostly consisting of
leafy vegetables, bananas, etc.
Although I have lived in Nigeria for over 17 years, most people
hardly ever consume milk or cheese (they were very expensive) and families have
strictly rationed their consumption of animal meat to about the size of a
lemon. average per person every two days. . All of these
groups of people, with their tuberous diets, are obviously in excellent health,
doing excellent physical labor.
In addition, breast milk, which for some time is the perfect food
for the baby, contains around 1-2% protein. (Only fruits and vegetables
are similar in composition) Any reasonable person might infer that a growing
baby needs more protein than an adult adult, but human babies, like our distant
cousins - monkeys in the wild, go away well. with human milk and
about the monkeys which share about 98% of our DNA, did you know that the
gorilla, the strongest primate, is known to weigh up to 4000 pounds? What
does this creature live on? According to Dr George Schaller and Dian
Fossey, two great primatologists, this powerful relative lives mainly on fruits
and leaves.
Now, with all of the above factors in mind, when it comes to a
proper diet for weight loss, I would recommend a diet without mucus or low in
mucus (raw and cooked fruits and vegetables). ) compared to any other
looking mode. in good condition. and health. Of course, if
the consumption of animal meat is to continue, I would also advise to do so in
minimum quantity and only one type of animal meat every now and then.
In my opinion, consuming fresh homemade salads, fruit mono-meals, dried fruit snacks like dates, nuts, and maybe even a quick juice, as a dietary option (with some form of exercise) will be the best way to achieve this. safe and healthy weight loss.
