This is Harvard Health Publishing, they say I need about 0.8 grams of protein everyday, now, that means I would have to consume about 70 grams of protein everyday (minimum) to stay healthy, now, I live in India and don’t consume that much, but I consider myself pretty healthy.

So, what’s the amount one should realistically be aiming towards? If I were to take 70 grams of protein everyday, what measurable changes can I expect in my life🤔?

      There are specific medical conditions where a ketogenic diet has shown some promise, but for the most part it’s not great for you. Essentially you needv blood sugars, and converting them from protein or fat takes a higher toll on your body than converting them from carbs. It barely counts as converting, a complex carb is really just a chain of sugars
