Comment on Low-Calorie Diet Doesn’t Prolong Life, Study of Monkeys Findsparent

Comments

Roughly speaking, it's about 25% fat, 40% carbs, 35% protein measured over the course of a week. I've recently added some light weight training to the exercise regimen and I'd like to increase that protein percentage to give my muscles the protein they need to build/repair. I have found that a lower percentage of fat doesn't really work well as it seems to throw my lipids out of balance (body overcompensation, perhaps?).
