pboy said:1:6 to 1:4 is up...cause think like 17% to 25%, I know what you mean though it was trippin me out for a second writing it. You could get by with 1:2 ratio, but most of the protein will be turned into sugar and its kind of a waste of energy, when you could just use a carb. It sends your body a better signal. Also, don't go below 1:6 ratio, or youll be out of balance in the opposite way, and have blood sugar problems or mood lowering, I think it provokes serotonin when carbs are so high without enough protein. Its better and cleaner, youll probably be happier and more energetic if you change the ratio from 1:2 to more 1:4...- 1.6. If you know your calorie range, just adjust the protein down to match it. You wont suffer any consequences. Also, youll probably loose weight faster that way, because your body will me more likely to create immune, lubricating, and detox factors out of the carbohydrates
Thank you.
But one needs a certain amount of protein a day as a baseline minimum. Like 80-100gram like RP says to detox estrogen and help the liver and all that stuff ? so i should never go below 80-100g?
Like if the scenario is this. 60g protein and 240g carbs wich is 1:4 vs 100g protein 250g carbs wich is 1:2:5 ratio.
But what about muscle loss as well by going so low protein. All the research that has proven increasing protein will maintain muscle etc etc
