Why is there an obsession with protein? How much protein do you need?
The New York Times once reported that most American adults eat about 100 grams of protein in a day. That's roughly twice the recommended amount. Even on a vegan or plant-based diet people can easily get 60 to 80 grams of protein throughout the day from whole foods like beans, legumes, nuts, broccoli, and whole grains. What's more, Americans are actively trying to increase their protein intake. No wonder protein powders and protein shakes are doing great in the market.
Now, avoiding sugar and simple carbohydrates and turning to protein-rich foods, snacks and supplements is absolutely a bad idea. Veteran weight loss surgeon and author of Proteinaholic: How Our Obsession With Meat Is Killing Us and What We Can Do About It, Dr. Garth Davis, will show you why.
In this conversation he talks about:
- What is a proteinaholic?
- Why is America so obsessed with protein?
- The problem with high-protein, low-carb diets like the Atkins Diet
- Why a low-carb diet is not good for diabetes
- Is dairy a source of high protein?
