Obviously, the healthiness or the harmfulness of the protein diet for weight loss depend exclusively on the technique with which it is calculated; in a nutshell, the "protein increase can be absolute or percentage, where" absolute "means a quantitative increase in dietary protein compared to the REAL (and NORMALcaloric) requirement, and" percentage "means an increase in the fraction of dietary protein compared to hypo-caloric energy (probably obtained by reducing the weights of fats - sugars to lower calories, but preserving that of peptides).
In the "absolute increase of proteins, the protein coefficient chosen is ALWAYS excessive compared to the real needs of the person.
NB. The choice or not of food supplements to be associated with the protein diet for weight loss depends on the therapist's ability to provide all the necessary nutrients and on the self-management capacity of the subject in food therapy.
NB. To appreciate the technique of calculating the protein diet for weight loss with a percentage increase in proteins, it is necessary to note that: compared to the normocaloric energy, the percentage of proteins calculated on the desirable physiological weight would be about 18.7%, but transferring the same weight protein on the low-calorie diet, the percentage rises accordingly up to 26.7%! This is the concept of the protein diet for weight loss with a percentage increase in food proteins.
