A member asked:
Are high-protein diets bad for your heart?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: And bad for your kidneys too. Balance, balance, balance. Low carb, low fat, high protein - none of these make sense. Eat what you enjoy in moderate amount - no supersizing. Eat for hunger, not for boredom or stress. Don't eat mindlessly. Avoid junk food. No snacking after dinner. No binging. If you follow these simple rules, you will lose weight. Aim for 1-2 lbs a week.
