[quote=Anonymous]The reality is many people, including middle-aged women which is my cohort, do not get nearly enough protein. They get maybe 50-60 g a day. We lose muscle mass at an alarming rate after menopause. So many older women eat like birds, little salads, a bit of salmon, some yogurt. May mother was this way and she and her friends all suffered from sarcopenia and many had osteoporosis and broke bones. It's very difficult to eat too much protein, unless you are supplementing with shakes and the like. It's a straw-man argument that we are eating too much protein. Just try to eat 150 g of protein from whole food sources every day for a week and then get back to us and tell us how it went.[/quote]
