What is the concern with processed? * Research showing data of ultra processed food correlating with higher-all cause mortality. * Not protein specific, more high in refined carbs, seed oils and sugars * Low in micronutrients but high in total calories * Bloating from sugar alcohols or lactose (but this is an digestive comfort issue) Processed protein has eben studied rigorously and science has shown * No increase of increased mortality * Safe for your kidneys In general I argue any processing negatives (if any) are outweighed by the benefits of a high protein diet. Food quality does matter but what matters the most is * Total calorie control * Adequate protein intake * Fiber intake * Micronutrient diversity * Limiting ultra-processed food dominance “Processed protein isn’t the villain. Under-eating protein, overeating calories, and lacking muscle mass are.” Thanks for listening!
