Just so you know there is certain amount of protein that you should have in your diet. Contrary to the atkins and other high protein diets too much protein and not enough carbs is not a good thing...Remba?
Below is the amount of protein you should have based on your training levels.
Tip: To get your weight in kilograms just divide your weight by 2.2.
BW= Bodyweight
Sedentary
.8kg-.9g/kg of BW
Physically Active
1.0-1.2g/kg of BW
Endurance Athlete
1.3-1.5g/kg of BW
BodyBuilding & Strength Training
1.6-2.0g/kg of BW
Children
up to 2g/kg of BW
Pregnant Females
Add 20g to total daily requirements and add 10g if nursing
Beware of eating too much protein. When protein is overwhelmed the kidneys and liver must process this overload.
The kidneys require more water to create urine when the solute concentration is high. This can lead to increase fluid loss and dehydration. Excessive protein consumed over an extended period of time can be detrimental to your body.
So in other words fall back on the meat and eat a balanced meal. Carbs need love too!!
No Apologies Peeps
