Welcome back to the Diet Doctor podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Brett Scher. Today we're talking

about protein, all things protein related. Specifically, though, how protein fits into people's

lifestyles for healthy weight loss, for metabolic health, for body composition, and also for

health span versus longevity.

And we have a real treat because we're joined by three of our experts here at Diet

Dr. Adele Height, Francisco Spritzler, and the man himself, Dr. Andreas Einfeld, to talk about

what the science says and what their personal experiences and their clinical experience

says about the importance of protein.

And it's surprising that protein is pretty controversial in some spheres.

I mean, how much is too much? How much is too little?

Are there dangers to eating too much protein?

Because there certainly can be dangers to eating too little.

And how does protein fit into a low carb or a keto diet or any diet

for that matter to help us find sustainable, healthy, long-term weight loss and metabolic health?

Because that's what it's about. It's not just about any type of weight loss, and it's not

about weight loss for tomorrow next week or next month. It's about for a lifetime. And protein

plays a critical role. So let's get into these interviews with these three experts to go

through this masterclass on protein and how you can use protein to help you on your health

journey.

Let's hear from Adele Height. Now, Adele is a senior writer at Diet Doctor, but she's been involved in low-carb nutrition

since 2006 when she started working with Dr. Eric Westman at Duke University, and she's

kept up her involvement in low-carb nutrition for well over a decade.
