[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1120730, member: 41816"] Every claim I have seen for the harmful effects of excess protein has (so far) been thoroughly debunked. That included the spurious 'bad for the kidneys' - only true if the kidneys already have reduced functioning. and 'too much protein is bad for the bones' - now throughly debunked by, I believe 5 studies in quick succession. and 'the China Study book tells us everything' - nope. That has had major reassessment by experts, and was written with a strong bias (easy to find what you are looking for if you follow your bias). Since you are not providing any evidence for your statements, I won't either, but the problem of googling, rather than properly referencing, is that google is full of myths that get picked up and passed around like sweets. Just look at the Low Fat Debacle. I AM interested in [I][B]peer reviewed, carefully referenced information[/B][/I] on too much protein being bad for us - just as I am interested in ANY carefully referenced info on nutrition. I am also interested in knowing what exactly is considered [I][B]excessive[/B][/I] since the word itself is so vague and emotive. [/QUOTE]
