In an absolute stunning claim, a new article has been circulating around about how having too much protein can actually be BAD for you, specifically in killing your SPERM? As a protein (in moderation) advocate myself, it will be quite a turn of events if protein can affect things like testosterone and fertility.
Let's take a deeper dive into this meaty claim and see what it's all about and whether we should reconsider our protein intakes!

Also something important that you missed was that the high carbohydrate group not only had higher testosterone but higher Sex Hormone Binding Globulin which actually binds up the free testosterone (aka the muscle building testosterone) in your body so as a result you may have higher testosterone on a high carb diet, but overall less free usable testosterone for your muscle building needs. Now I'm just going off the graph that you should in this video and did not check the studies for myself so I might be wrong. Biology is Interesting though🤔

From what I can remember, there have been studies done (far more recent studies) that showed drops in free testosterone for low carb, and low-fat diets. Seems that going too low in either of those compromises testosterone levels, so perhaps that influenced the end results. Lots of problems with these studies regardless. Great coverage! 😎👍

@infernoizawsome6524 2 жыл бұрын
If you are a beginner and you want to build more muscle you should probably put in 2 grams of protein per kg of bodyweight for the first couple of months. And then go down to the recommended amount of 1,6g.

@justanotherfella4478 2 жыл бұрын
I mean you kinda need to understand what's the protein for. If you do resistance training, you tear your muscle fibres. This results in small cuts in your muscle and protein fills these small cuts. Your body does what it always tries to do and that is to repair the damage. If you don't eat enough protein, maybe not all cuts get filled with protein or not with enough to make it grow. Your body will still repair the cuts but you lose the opportunity to fill them out and make them grow. That's basic idea in an oversimplified explaination. Since you are new to lifting, you tear your muscle with nearly every activity therefore you should aim for a higher intake. 1g of every cm of your height is a good general rule.

Honestly, on a cut at 90kg I will need 180grams of protein. This means 720 kcalories from protein. My calorie buget on a cut is around 2000 calories. 720/2000 means 36%. 36% of my calories are coming from protein. And if I will need to dial down a bit the calories go at 1800-1900 then... I go into 40%. The interesting part is that I feel really good. I have a healthy diet, tons of salads, stopped smoking, proper sleep at 19 degrees, workout 5 times a week. Life is good

I find it funny that some draw conclusions from a really small study that DRASTICALLY changed a couple of peoples diets… I mean protein and fat is harder for the body to draw energy from and it takes some time for the body to get used to. And of course when your body doesn’t work normally anymore (since you’ve cut your main source of energy macronutrient) you probably will get lower T levels because of the shock…

Just a point on the 250g of mince. It is likely that the mince used in the study did not have 30g of fat per 100g. If the study was done in England and they used mince from the supermarket, the highest fat content I ever see is only 20g fat per 100g, and even then the most popular option of the 5g fat. Won’t be much difference to the overall video but that 30g fat seems too high (for me personally anyways).

Upon review, it wasn't the study that was the real problem, even though the limited sample size of subjects and short duration of experiment made the data of lesser value. In the end, it was the article written about the study that was terrible and misleading. Better takeaway: don't cut your carbs too low if you don't want to potentially impact your test levels detrimentally, and on a more basic common sense level, don't increase your protein intake by multiple times more than your existing intake overnight.

Just want to point out that a recommendation of 1.6-2.3g/kg body weight is 26.1-35.7% calories consumed for a 180lb person taking in 2000 calories daily. 180lb = 81.6 kg 81.6kg(1.6g/kg) = 130.5g protein 130.5g(4 calories/g) = 522.24 calories 522.24/2000 = 26.1% The recommendation is 1.2g-2g/kg, which would be 19.5-32.6% of a 2000 calorie diet, which would avoid hitting that 35% altogether.
