Re: Can you live only on High protein/High fat diet ?

 Well, There are peoplez sayinng that carbs are the cause of many health issues.

For instance people with candida or bacterial overgrowth ( intyestine) report feeling better when on low carbs....


I don't know what to think.

Anyone tried this diet ?

I personally do not agree with any strict diet.  High protein can elevate uric acid, which can be an issue for people with kidney disorders or prone to gout.  And if that high protein includes red meat it can also be an issue for people with hemochromotosis.  Then there is the fact that meats, organic or not, still contain hormones that can feed cancers.  Animal flesh can also increase inflammation due to the arachidonic acid.

So there are limitations to such a diet just as there are limitations to other strict diets.  Again well balanced diets and moderation is the key.
