    High Protein & Low Carb Diet Women - Lose Weight Quickly and Much - Men - Increase Muscle Mass and Become Very Strong - - Jonathan Price

    Introduction

    The high-protein diet is a particular diet characterized by a reduced consumption of carbohydrates combined with a high intake of proteins and fats.

    Before analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of the high-protein diet, it is good to open a small parenthesis on proteins and their function in our body:

    ❖  proteins or protids (from the Greek proteios, primary) comprise a large group of organic compounds formed by sequences of amino acids linked together through peptide bonds.

    The main function of proteins is to supply the tissues with the amino acids necessary for cell renewal processes (plastic function).

    Proteins also have an energetic function in particular conditions, but in a balanced diet this role is marginal. This process is instead active during prolonged fasting or in the midst of long-lasting demanding physical activity. In both cases the branched chain amino acids (leucine, isoleucine, valine) are degraded for energy purposes.

    RECOMMENDED DAILY NEED

    Nutritionists recommend taking around 15-20% of your daily calorie intake throughout the day. This dose corresponds roughly to a protein intake of 0.8-1.2 g of protein per kg of body weight. To guarantee the correct functioning of the organism and protect it from certain diseases, 2/3 of these proteins should derive from products of animal origin and 1/3 from products of vegetable origin (legumes). Legumes are in fact foods rich in fiber and vitamins that regulate intestinal function while protecting the body from toxins and chemical residues, often contained in meat.

    The high-protein diet, on the other hand, provides significantly higher contributions in the order of 1.8 - 2.2 g / kg

    DISADVANTAGES

    OF THE HYPERPROTEIC DIET

    Consequences of excessive protein consumption depend on the total amount of energy introduced during the day.

    In particular, if the quantity of calories taken in the form of carbohydrates and lipids is sufficient to cover energy requirements, the excess of proteins inevitably turns into storage fat (high-protein and low-carb diet).

    If the amount of energy taken in the form of carbohydrates and lipids is not sufficient to cover energy needs, the excess of protein is instead used to derive energy (high-protein and low-carb diet).

    In any case, both processes lead to an increased renal effort necessary for the elimination of nitrogen contained in proteins. For this reason, it is very important to always associate an adequate supply of
