Protein powder, drinks, and bars are no longer tucked away in supplement shops. They’ve made their way to supermarket shelves. And so have a variety of protein enriched foods, from milk to shakes, cookies to chips.

    Why is he vlogging with his phone while there is a camera crew there....? Definitely a protein deficiency!
  • Bio Availability and absorption both plays a role. Also you can't eat 4 whole eggs a day is a myth. The friend chicken you ate probably has more cholesterol than 4 boiled eggs.
  • If you ain't weightlifting with progressive overload you don't need crazy amounts of protein
  • @hd9g
    The episode fails to touch on plant based proteins, comparison of bioavailability between plant, meat and dairy. Apart from whey protein concentrate and isolate there is micellar casein and calcium caseinate. So much missing. I am not even a nutrition expert!
  • @Sam_A_Sam
    Interesting, I think I found some benefit in this.
  • @kuangmengg
    Using egg as a measurement for total protein amount might misled some to think they should eat that amount of eggs per day to get that sufficient protein intake.
  • I'm very disappointed that you glossed over the fact that protein comes from plants and because ruminants and other animals eat plants, they have plenty of protein in them. You kept ramming home the misleading idea that we need animal products to get protein by mentioning meat and eggs frequently, as well as dairy, yet you ignored the health benefits of consuming plants. You also failed to mention hem iron, casein and other inflammatory agents in animal-based foods. I also felt that you didn't pay enough attention to the amount of fat and calories, not to mention sodium. Finally, you ignored the health risks associated with highly and ultra-processed ingredients and food.
  • this is not not an optimal diet recommendation. People do not need to be eating more than 55 to 60 gms protein a day.

    Tamsak done idol and full support on your video 😊 idol
  • @roorlek
    The answer for healthy diet is no added sugar and lots of veggies. Everything is getting over complicated
  • @rash3571
    Did they get the Whey part wrong? Casein and Whey protein are the ones that differ in absorption duration... Concentrate and Isolate differs in terms of macro nutrients.

    Looks like Uncle chia is bored with talking point now or he's afraid he has to take on one more challenge for this episode.
