Among the many eat-all-you-want-and-lose-weight diets that have been popular for a time is one that eliminates all carbohydrates but permits the consumption of all the protein and fat desired. Would such a diet be effective?
Most diets provide adequate levels of protein, even when trying to achieve protein intakes of 1.2 to 2 grams/kilogram of bodyweight. However, protein supplementation can be utilized in some instances. Discuss instances in which you think protein supplementation would make sense or be warranted?
Discuss the various biological steps that will take place in your body to extract the necessary nutrients like amino acids, glucose, and fatty acids from the food and make them available to the body cells.
