In another 2 years, Rhonda will be pushing carnivore diet, mark my words.
I follow and respect both of you. BUT I also must listen to my body. As someone with 30 lbs to lose, I have been doing my damndest to adhere to your protein recommendations, and I simply cannot do it. I am not losing weight, and I am paralyzed from over-feeding for half the day. If we are supposed to listen to our bodies, there's no way most females could have a 130 gram intake. It's 3:30 and I'm still full from breakfast (which was 57 grams of protein and all I can eat for the day). As of right now, I give up. I am going back to a protein intake my body feels comfortable with.
You often talk about bio- availability but what about vegan protein POWDER?
Dr Attia, I read that you live in Austin. Are you seeing patients and if so how do I get an appt? TY
Micro is micro for a reason. Take care of the main issues and the small stuff will follow👍🏼
She seriously needs to work on stop saying the dreaded crutch word,"like." It's extremely off-putting.
Jersey stick, how the fuck ☠️☠️ Poison ☠️☠️
How the FUCK can anyone take advice from such a joke like Attia. He advice a dangerous high protein diet with beef jerkey. WARNING ☠️☠️☠️
I am 300 lbs, is the protein recommended per pound of ideal body weight or actual weight?
I’ll avoid Rhonda. If I see it I stop watching
@peterattia I wonder if it the same amount for men and women – and regardless of age? I eat less as I age and the large protein requirements are becoming almost impossible plus taking away the joy of eating. Surely joy at meal times contribute to happy longevitiy!
Amen!!! Protein muscle mass health span! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I get 160g in 2 meals a day
2.2 grams per kilo, are these 2 fucking crazy? 😂
Something doesn’t match, I would have to eat much more than My hunger tells mento eat to get that much protein, also my digestion and mood are affected by this, maybe we shouldn’t eat this much?, maybe it’s natural to lose some muscle with age and that’s it! Why to fight and struggle so much?, I don’t see centenarians in the blue zones doing all this longevity efforts…
I get hungry In 2hrs with a whey protein isolate shake. I add in 3 -4 poached eggs and am good to go for 5+ hrs. On a busy day that is my jam.
So complicated for most people?
That’s still not gonna be enough protein
At 6:48, Peter mentions the Drtr-approach for overweight people. What is that?
If you have to make an effort to eat more, something tells me that's inherently wrong for longevity
A while back a friend referred me to Dr Attia's channel. It has only been a few weeks since I modified my diet to accomplish the 185g of daily protein I need for my 185lb of body weight. I have been doing fairly well achieving the 1g/lb goal and I noticed something kind of strange.
Long prior to my starting the 1g/lb dietary regimen I had partially torn my rotator cuff in a fall I took this winter on a steep icy trail. I have been going to a physical therapist weekly to rehab my shoulder and while progress was slow, I did see monthly improvement in my range of motion and strength without pain. Since I started the 1g/lb regimen it seems my recovery pace has significantly increased. The progress I might have been making in a month I seem to be getting in a week. Clearly this is just an anecdotal experience and likely is just that I was closer to the end of my rehab than the start, but it seems like I am getting meaningful (like 10%) gains per week now in ROM and strength without pain, versus more like that amount in a month before I went to the 1g/lb intake.
$600 worth of venison/month , I think i'll stick to Whey 😀
I find that whey protein upsets my stomach, is pea protein a good alternative?
As a Vegan I can't eat venison
1grms/lb of body weight is an absurd amount of protein, forces people to buy protein supplements and feeds the pockets of these people selling their supplements…..
Getting 1 gram per pound of body weight of protein is a challenge on the Mediterranean Diet!
Would love you to speak on aiding the digestion of increased protein amounts.
For elitists with time and discretionary income.
How to advertise my venison jerkey without making it super obvious that that is the sole purpose of this video, haha
Two skinny people talking about taking in enough protein and building muscle 😂 I guarantee they aren’t taking in what they are preaching. It’s like the person that looks like a string bean at the office but talks about how much they eat during the day. It’s a lie and facade. Why would you want to put all that time and energy in the gym to be the same size at you were in high school? Makes no sense.
I’ve always gotten 250-300 at 190 body weight Idk how people struggle so much with protein it’s easy for me
So little useful info with so much of empty talking!
Lamb, goat and beef meet for the win. If you sweat a lot, pay attention to salt and pepper.
A man typically eats more – especially if they work hard or are training hard. I’m starting to think that women have different demands that can’t be compared to men, yet male experts are probably speaking inclusively. I’m like Rhonda, I struggle to fit in large amounts of protein. My go to’s are eggs, crustless quiches, yogurt, cheese, chicken, salmon and a small amount of beef – throughout the week!
What people fail to realize is that the anabolic state of human body can be also “beneficial“ to some types of cancer. We are ment to feast and fast. I apreciet the point of view from his perspective but i`ll stick with my 18:6 IF protocol.
Menlo Henselmann says the research doesn't show benefits above about .82g per pound, except in unusual circumstances.
(There is a recent YouTube video of him being interviewed by Mike Israel on this).
Protein timing rules of thumb from older research are also proving not be to be correct. So I would question that 4 protein feedings a day are proven by research.
Any good whey protein brand that doesn't have sugar or carbs on it?
I’m 58 year young OMAD carnivore, did a DEXA scan in February and I’m at the top of my age group in lean body mass and bone density. I eat about 1-2 lb of meat in addition to fat maybe some cheese and or pork rinds and I’m losing a very comfortable 4 lb a month so I’m sticking to this.
1g protein per lb of body weight is wayy too much for 90% of 50+ yo to handle. Consistently that is.
0.5-0.8g/lb more realistic long term.
90% of 50+ yo are NOT as physically active as these two, which is a requirement for the intake recommendation at 1g/lb.
At no point in human history have people ever eaten that much protein. He even seems to suggest it should mostly be animal protein just to get enough Lucien. His advice is becoming suspect and I think I'm going off any channels with Attia on it now. can you even imagine getting 40 grams of animal protein 4 times day? Walk out your door and look at america…90% of the population needs to cut calories in half, not jam chicken down their throat 4 times a day.
God i can’t stand how much you guys are complaining about wanting to eat.
Go out and look around. The vast majority of people you see are obese or al least over weight.
People do not need to be fat shamed BUT being over weight is not healthy and leads to a host of illnesses.
When you look around you can see all the unhealthy people without taking a blood test or a fitness test
"NORMAL" for the average American is "UNHEALTHY" The health of society is in decline.
Is the venison jerky Maui Nui?
Where should we order these venison jerkey sticks?
So relieved to hear this conversation between you two. Getting enough protein is like chasing a dragon!! Can you share the company that makes the jerky?
Getting sufficient protein while trying to restrict or maintain calories is very difficult for me! Thank you for the advice!
1:55 Two charlatans.
1g per lb for me is about 180g of protein. That feels too much in my experience. Typically i aim for anything between 100g – 150g (130g being pretty optimal as i see it).
I typically get this amount from 2 meals per day + a protein shake. I don't pay attention to any other macros really. Not at the moment while I'm trying to lose a couple more kilos in total body weight. I find this method extremely manageable.
