Let’s end this debate now. The puzzle is now complete. We have the data and we know what works. We know the ‘too much protein is bad for your kidneys’ talk that some doctors and others tout is wrong. There is simply no data to validate this unless you have pre-existing, unrelated, kidney disease. We know that fasting/cleansing is good for you, not bad. For those who say ‘your body is always cleansing…that’s what the kidneys and liver are for,’ we can reply by showing them the research that far more can be done. For those who say that ‘protein is protein, ‘ we can clearly demonstrate that this is not the case…not even close. Many say ‘I’ve tried everything and nothing works.’ Maybe that person has tried other programs, but they most certainly have not incorporated caloric restriction and intermittent fasting. If they had, they would’ve achieved the results they were looking for. Being 80% of health and how we look is due to nutrition, whereas only 20% is due to exercise, it’s quite important to have a lifestyle system that addresses the 80% part.
