[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2141064, member: 506169"] Hi Happy dude, You can't trust the newspapers or people online, or even your health care professionals since you are a Type 2. Neither should you trust me or anybody else! People have motives for what they say - [B]sometimes their motives are altruistic, but even so they can give advice or information which is bad for you. [/B]We are all different and everybody lies in their own way! For me any number above 7.8 mmols is a bad number and I take action - that may be eliminating carbs completely from my next meal or fasting (skipping that scheduled meal). - But that is me , not you! I find it strange that you are mentioning High or Low Protein not high or Low Fat. Are you eating a Low Carb diet/lifestyle? - If not the high or low protein really doesn't make much difference! Personally I find that Low Carb High Fat with sufficient protein (neither high nor low) works well for me. But that is just me and not everyone finds that eggs, cheese, nuts, full fat yoghurt and fatty meat/fish are things they want to eat. So finally to answer your question, I would go with neither, though if I had no alternative but to choose between High Protein and Low Protein I would choose the high Protein. Note that I have heard that the bad press about high protein and Kidney problems is just a scare - though I have not verified that for myself since I don't need to! [/QUOTE]
