Whether you are seeing a doctor, a nutritionist, or a trainer, all of them advise eating more protein. Foods, drinks, and supplements are loaded with extra protein. Many people use protein for weight control while others believe it gives them more energy. Now, weight loss expert Dr. Garth Davis asks, "Is all this protein making us healthier?"

The answer, he emphatically argues, is no. Too much protein is actually making us sick, fat, and tired, according to Dr. Davis. If you are getting adequate calories in your diet, there is no such thing as protein deficiency. The healthiest countries in the world eat far less protein than we do, and yet we have an entire nation getting sicker by the day.

As a surgeon, Dr. Davis was frustrated by the ever-increasing number of sick and overweight patients, but it wasn't until his own health scare that he realized he could do something about it. Combining cutting-edge research with his hands-on patient experience, this groundbreaking book reveals the truth about the dangers of protein and shares a proven approach to weight loss, health, and longevity.

I found Proteinaholic really enjoyable. I started eating WFPB only 4 weeks ago. Before that I was a died-in-the-wool low-carb advocate from about 2000 to 2014. After that I was a bit conflicted, but still thought that heavy meat consumption was ok for many (most?) people, just not those with certain genes that predisposed them to be "overly sensative" to saturated fat.

I totally bought into the evolutionary aspects of low-carb visa vis the paleo diet theory. It just made so much sense to me. Which is why I'm so glad I came across Dr. Garth's book. It really made a point at going through each of the talking points and tropes that you find in low-carb/paleo circles and why so many of them don't hold water. I feel like I was hoodwinked and worse, was deluding MYSELF for years because I'd just bought into one side of the argument. This while I marveled at how people could deny global warming despite all the evidence. I think it goes to show that all of us are quite capable of buying into something and then refusing to look at evidence that may be contrary - or just trying to rationalize that evidence away despite it's value, because if it goes against your worldview. Cognitive dissonance!

The book takes you through Davis's personal journey of his own denial and slow realization that our collective delusion about the primacy of protein is based of fallacies and marketers taking advantage of that. He takes you through many studies to show that the "preponderance of evidence" indicates that a plant-based diet is the healthiest one for humans, but is also fair about saying exactly what we do and don't have scientific "proof" of - but also what can practically and reasonably be expected as far as studies that could be done.

All in all, this was a great listen!

Great critique of low-carb/paleo talking points

The real truth abou Protein

I've heard many people site "facts" about diet and nutrition. When I ask them where they heard that "fact", they can usually supply a blog, book, or podcast but they can't find real scientific research. I love this book because it has 699 studies referenced in it. Garth goes through these studies and helps the reader weigh truth from lie. It is an entertaining, well written, and we'll researched book. I recommend it to anyone wanting to know more about health and longevity.

His take was exquisitely balanced. No denouncing anything as evil or side stepping inconvenient truths. Just facts and sound reasoning on data when more study is needed. I always appreciate it when someone can admit to previously flawed views. People tend to get themselves stuck in a position and refuse with everything they have to entertain any contradictions. Dr.Davis is flexible, which is immensely important.

It's also a complete book. Not just the What, but the How and Why.

Should be a textbook

What a great book, after having had the gastric sleeve and being pushed animal products, and had such issues with that after going four months plant base to prepare my body for surgery. Thank Doctor for this book I am back on track with my plant base and feel great.

Amazing
