We now have to teach the client what correct nutrition is and what it looks like. Because if this is the case, we have more issues than just weight loss. Fasting for religious purposes is one thing, but fasting for physical benefit is just pure ignorance.Īssuming one is working the Weight Watchers program correctly, they're not eating 3000 kcals of cheese cake. Even on a cleanse, the body NEEDS calories. Lastly, I work with tons of doctors, nurses, nutritionists, dietitians, athletic trainers, physical therapists, coaches and other trainers, and have never had any one of them recommend not eating for 18 hours. Constant source of readily and constantly available energy=better results. Ideally, we'd all be strapped to IV bags feeding us constantly at an incredibly slow rate. You provided one OPINION of ONE internet physiologist, about ONE antiquated study (12 years is an eternity in the world of biochemistry), about the effect of meal frequency on metabolic rate, NOT as it pertains to the entire gamut of wellness and weight loss. I am very familiar with both fasting and creating caloric deficits/surpluses for weight loss/hypertropy.īlaming the client in the Weight Watchers case, still didn't answer the Weight Watchers dilemma. So that's what I think about the RDA, in a nutshell Why? Carbs taste good, and they're cheap. So they know that people need more protein and less carbs, yet they reduce the protein and increase the carbs. They also acknowledge that the RDA for carbs necessary is 130g/day, yet they still set it at 300g/day. There are tons of studies showing decreased risk of heart disease, cardiovascular issues, lower cholesterol, better body fat ratio, and other things due to increased protein and lower carbs. And increased protein has actually been found to increase bone density at times.

They also have other information that shows no ill effects at up to 2.7 g/kg and prove that there is no correlation between cancer, osteoporosis, kidney disease etc, except for people that already have existing kidney conditions. The USDA and FDA have studies from the same exact Food and Nutrition Board that they used to base the requirements off of that say athletes need between 1.4 and 1.7 g/kg in protein.
