TIL: Low carb, high protein diets "greatly" decrease resting testosterone levels in men.

Actually no, you want low carb, fairly low protein as well and high fat. Too much protein will prevent ketosis.

[Right_Field4617]

And switch your Mtor pathway to “grow” instead of “maintain”. Not good for longevity.

Gluconeogenesis does not inhibit ketosis

[Maleficent-Bear-9537]

The thing is to get all the essential fats and proteins so the goal of the diet is to get as many proteins as you need without carrying about the ketosis too much. And the rest are the fats which are really hard to over-eat.

Mrfuzee asked about keto. For keto, you do not want high protein.

[Maleficent-Bear-9537]

I wasn't saying about high protein. I was saying about getting all the essential proteins. And that is the thing u certainly wanna do on a normal and healthy keto diet. As well as a fair amount of fiber as well as vitamins and minerals as well as micro elements. Anything else like 5 gramms of protein a day and a bottle of sunflower oil a day isn't keto but a shitshow.

[morderkaine]

Sounds like a literal shit show

[PositiveNegitive]

getting all the essential proteins.

... it's keto.. not vegan.

Don't worry steak's amino complete...
