Episode notes
The Protein Dilution Problem
- Modern diets are over-diluted with refined carbs and fats, leading to protein deficiency.
- Prioritize protein in every meal to combat this dilution and promote satiety.
McDonald's Soda Economics
- Zach Bitter recalls his McDonald's job where soda refills were free, highlighting the cheapness of refined carbs.
- This illustrates how businesses profit from overconsumption of cheap, unhealthy options.
Protein and Carb Needs
- Protein needs scale with activity levels; sedentary individuals need less than active ones.
- Start with a protein goal (e.g., 1g/lb ideal body weight), limit carbs (e.g., 100g if sedentary), then add fats based on needs and protein source.
