I'm not sure if there are numbers but it seems a lot of people I know have very carb rich diets. It would probably be good for them to switch some of that out

  ...and fat. I switched out my morning half-and-half in my coffee w/ one tbsp of organic unsalted butter and one tbsp of coconut oil. It has helped me lose body fat and curbed my appetite.

    You put butter in coffee?
    • gm-conspiracy 8y ago
      Yes. Initially, I thought it would be gross, but it actually tastes good, and I tend to drink less because the caffeine seems more powerful.

    You can't prove that your change in coffee additives was what caused a loss of body fat or reduction in appetite. It could have been caused by other factors and there was no experimental control.

  This is not really a good idea, especially if they are getting enough protein in their diets already (about 0.8g per kg of bodyweight) which most people have no problem getting. Eating too much protein-rich food increases the risk of excessive uric acid build-up and can lead to all sorts of fun problems like gout and kidney stress. Despite what fad diets say, carbs are not bad for you. You will gain weight if you eat too many carbs, but that is the same for too much fat or too much protein.

    Unless you already have kidney problems, most people will find it exceedingly difficult to eat enough protein for it to be a problem.
