Metabolic Decline? Plateau? Protein Theory
I found this and wondered what some of you thought it might mean to you?
........ comes from a research team from Boston. They compared two diets over nine days, both providing an average of 1,492 calories. The low-protein diet contained 67% carbohydrate, 15% protein, and 18% fat. The moderate-protein diet contained 43% carbohydrate, 27% protein, and 30% fat.
Daily metabolic rate dropped to a greater extent in the group consuming the low-protein diet. The results show a 10% decline during the low-protein diet, but only a 5% drop during the moderate-protein diet.
