“Dr. Patrick also distinguishes general-population evidence from people with diabetes or insulin resistance, where some observational studies report different risk patterns and residual confounding remains substantial.”

“2003 According to Luc van Loon, 0.8 g/kg/day represents the minimum protein requirement to stay in nitrogen balance for a diet that is provided for 1–2 weeks, but this is not the protein requirement for optimal health, nor does it account for individual variations in protein needs due to age, physical activity levels, and health status.”

“A separate six-week randomized study in 30 healthy young adults found that neither 10 nor 20 grams per day improved the tested cognitive outcomes compared with placebo. The result is an important counterweight to the acute sleep-deprivation experiment.”

“A liberalized version of the diet containing more protein and (proportionately) less fat may offer much of the therapeutic potency while being easier to tolerate. This may allow more people to receive the optimal performance and health benefits.”

“Liberalizing the diet by altering protein, fat, and fiber intake may make the diet more tolerable. For those who have difficulty reaching and sustaining ketosis, ketone supplementation may be beneficial, but their use might interfere with weight loss.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick answers audience questions on various health, nutrition, and science topics in this Q&A session.

“The National Institute of Health (NIH) has been cutting funding on nutrition research leaving many questions in nutrition research unanswered. In the absence of NIH funding, industry has funded more research. Dr. Krauss believes that the future of research funding should come from philanthropic sources that eliminates any risk of conflicts of interest.”

“In this clip from Q&A #68, Dr. Rhonda Patrick compares stearic, palmitic, myristic, and lauric acids and explains why chocolate, cheese, butter, and coconut oil can produce different lipid responses.”

“A single 0.35-gram-per-kilogram dose of creatine monohydrate, equal to 24.5 grams for a 70-kilogram adult, reduced fatigue and improved word memory and processing speed on selected tasks versus placebo. It also changed brain-energy measures.”

“Protein blending is another practical strategy. A trial comparing an equivalent dose of a corn, pea, and canola blend with milk protein found no difference in post-meal muscle protein synthesis in healthy young men.”
