[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 2045384, member: 94045"] I do not and never have restricted my protein. My kidney and liver functions are normal (as per my kidney and liver function blood tests). I have at least 100g a day. I am 5ft 4ins and weigh just under 9 stone, and I don't do any exercise apart from walking and the usual household stuff. My belief is that protein is a very essential nutrient for repair, healing, and strength. It does have the ability to convert to glucose, but as the body will only do this as a last resort in the absence of enough glucose, and then again, not in every body, there is no reason to be afraid of it, and every reason to be afraid of a deficiency. If you have existing kidney disease, it is another matter. [/QUOTE]
