how to excess meat protein affect metabolism ? lethargy, no motivation....
-
brothers, help. I was looking at some topics from a brother, and he said that his intestinal problem lasted with a diet of rice, milk and yogurt. This makes sense from a bioenergetic point of view, as it fueled his metabolism and eradicated the problem.
I decided to do similar, I made it white rice, beef and eggs. high carbs and low fat.
However, I woke up today with lethargy, a little swollen eyes and fatigue, and no motivation, and a little inflammation in the upper intestine, but very little.
it wasn't the rice, nor the eggs, I believe it was the excess protein, why am I consuming more than 700 grams of meat daily, and five, six eggs, is there any explanation regarding the excess protein?
-
@erva-mate excess tryptophan, methionine and cysteine, which strongly cause thyroid inhibition, depression and carbohydrate metabolism disorders. It will be advisable to limit meat and introduce an appropriate amount of gelatin.
-
@Fructose how many grams per day? Well, I had even thought about something like that, it is a very strong inhibition of metabolism, I became weak and very lethargic, I don't understand, there are people who advocate high meat consumption and nothing happens to them
-
@erva-mate Ray Peat mentioned 2-6 tablespoons of gelatin per day. You can also make bone broth. With any meat consumption, there must be gelatin to balance the unfavorable amino acids.
-
@Fructose my goal was to increase testosterone, the emphasis on this is huge when I consume meat, I will exchange the meat for some cheese, milk or eggs
-
@erva-mate If you don't eat dairy at all, this may be one of the reasons. Phosphorus unbalanced with calcium can wreak havoc at the physiological level.

@Fructose “The ratio of calcium to phosphate is very important; that’s why milk and cheese are so valuable for weight loss, or for preventing weight gain. For people who aren’t very active, low fat milk and cheese are better, because the extra fat calories aren’t needed.” - Ray Peat

@Fructose yes, I was lactose intolerant, not digesting even a glass, I increased the starches and reduced the fat and I'm consuming 750 ml per day, I can only consume milk after 2 pm.... I'm going to try to reduce protein and increase carbohydrates and improve milk consumption, reduce or eliminate meat...
