Protein Misconceptions

2Thick said:


This is not the correct article. The study that I posted by the same author has two groups (one control) with 3 levels of protein intake (low, medium, high; 0.86, 1.4 & 2.4 g/kg respectively).

As you can see the high group has 2.4g/kg (a little over 1g/ pound) and not the numbers you quoted.

I wasn't referring to your article, I backing up my claim for higher protein using studies of my own (which I am trying to see if they're on the net)

Where are the citations?
 
You'd have to ask DC for that, I'm only quoting him. I doubt he's making them up, however.
 
I did not read all this, just a few posts on the first page...

But I weigh 241. If I go under 300 grams of protein daily, I don't "feel" big. Not to mention, I can't grow. I am at 350-400 grams of protein per day. I simply can not grow and maintain a low body fat % on 1 gram of protein per day.

I do eat a good amount of red meat, so don't see the case against it. My chlosterol is fine. My lipid profile is fine. Everything is fine. I don't gain fat from red meat either.

Everything is fine for now. Wait 20 years. Then is when it catches up to you.

Are you 'on' right now?

You're always on low carbs though, right bro?

Yes, I am on right now. But I went from 189 to 230 after college eating this same way. Naturally.

sk* - yes, I am always on low carbs. Except every 5th or 6th day. (or vacation)

That would explain your need for high protein.

Yea, that's why I asked ...

If you go real low on carbs than you usually need more protein as a source of energy.
