We need MUCH less protein that we've been told

"I would start at at least 1g/kg LBM, see how you feel and then n=1 up and/or down and see what happens. "

This actually reminds me of something I’ve been curious of: are there signs/symptoms of too little protein?

Since increasing protein my hair is growing back.

#43

Yes, hair thinning, brittle nails and dry skin!

And muscle loss, weakness (marginal changes rather than becoming floppy :grin:), slow healing etc. though it would be harder to see these unless you were more than a little under your body’s threshold

Funny how a 4 scan package offers no financial or functional benefit over a 2 scan? Still - a killer rate!

Your post was so fascinating I decided to download the book you recommended. Starting it now. Thanks for your insightful message and musings.
