This is the big news story at the moment. It is all over the media. The Telegraph reports that a High-Protein Diet is as bad for health as smoking Research finds that people who eat diet rich in animal protein carry similar cancer risk to those who smoke 20 cigarettes each day... The Food Doctor says: Firstly, there is a difference between eating protein in the diet and going on restrictive diets that exclude major food groups such as carbohydrates like the Atkins diet.. Nobody ever said that giving up carbohydrates such as whole-grains, vegetables, fruit and pulses was good for you! The key to living a healthy life is to include all food groups to the right proportions and keep levels of saturated fats, sugars and salt to a minimum. Here at The Food Doctor we would advise against any restrictive diet that cuts out large food groups and following any sort of diet regime which promotes an imbalance in the intake of major food groups. We also recommend people try to include more vegetarian sources of protein (nuts, quorn, soy, natural yoghurt) and stick to lean animal proteins such as chicken, fish and eggs, which are typically lower in saturated fats.
