Thank you so much 😀
Thank you kindly beautiful lady ❤. Happy Easter to you and your family.
Great video. Can you address how long carb/hi protein can impact kidney function and how to balance that with the need to lose weight?
Happy Easter! Blessed be your family
Same to you!
I eat both animal and plant protein, I prefer the taste and texture of plant proteins
But nothing I buy is organic high quality especially the animal foods not because I’m being rebellious but because high quality is too expensive out of my budget
Great informative video, as always. I am having a difficult time with eating the 30 grams at each meal and feel as though I am so overeating. I have been following a 15 hour fast daily and eating 3 meals per day. Is this normal to feel I am overeating to get in the 30 grams of protein./meal. I was hoping that the 30 grams of protein would encourage my weight loss journey, along with exercise and strength training. Am I doing something wrong?
Wild salmon is getting hard to come by these days. Is the frozen or canned type ok or farm fresh from the fish counter?
Steer clear of farm raised.
you need to put section in the video for each ten foods so people can go back to ones they like
You suggested taking 5 g of creatine a day and doing a loading session of 5 g four times a day for 5 to 7 days. When you’re saying 5 g a day, are you meaning in addition to the creatine you’re getting in the protein you’re eating? Meaning, if I eat 120 g of protein, I’m probably getting 5 g of creatine if it’s coming from Beef, pork or salmon. So are you suggesting taking a supplement of an additional 5 g of creatine on top of what you’re getting from the protein that I am eating during the day? Also, what source of creatine in a supplement do you suggest?
I’ve tried creatine for the first time. I’ve taken it for 15 days. Mentally felt very well, had sharp focus, and improved cognition, however, I got so physically inflamed, that I couldn’t walk. My ankle was swollen and my heel was injured. I’ve read about associations with kidney stones and creatine and I have this same issue when I eat oxalate-rich foods. I stopped with creatine (it was only 3g a day) and it took 4 days to get back to normal. I can’t believe I can’t use it 😫😫
I add protein powder to my Greek yogurt as well!!!
Hello, I am enjoying your videos very much. Is your advice on how much protein and carbs to eat per meal and day only for women? I’m a 43 yr. old male. Should I be eating the same or more in order to build and maintain lean muscle mass?
I get weighed on a clinical bia scale at my prover’s office on a regular basis. I feel so lucky to have this available to me. I was disheartened to discover how seriously inaccurate my Renpho scale was at tracking my progress. Perhaps I had a defective one but it was so off the mark that I threw it away.
What if your vegan plant-based does Dr. Campbell give you any list of high protein? I know he is big into plant-based.
This is a great video full of pertiant information about protein and incorporating it into our diet.
Thank you!
1. Wild caught salmon
2. Grass fed Greek yoghurt
3. Grass fed bone broth
4. Grass fed, grass finished beef
5. Chicken breast, pasture raised if possible
No eggs?
How about coconut yogurt?
Full fat yogurt is better than fat free because it contains vitamin K2 as well as other benefits.
I love your channel! This information is excellent. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
