The importance of protein
  • If you're hungry all the time, you probably need more protein. Our bodies can make us crave foods that we need the most.
  • Research studies on infants have shown that they naturally choose a variety of foods that provide them with the proteins, vitamins, and minerals they need.
  • The protein leverage hypothesis suggests that our bodies compel us to keep eating to get more protein. Eating the same number of calories, you will be hungrier on a low protein diet compared to a high protein diet.
"Because the body knows it requires a lot of protein, it will compel you to keep eating to get more protein."

 
It appears impossible to achieve the required daily protein intake on a vegan-based diet, without supplements, unless you want to become fat too.

Since working out in Jan losing 10-12kg etc. Used to be super hungry since I started supplementing with one additional scope of whey 25g extra protein a day in a shake I havent had any of the "hunger pangs" I had the first few months.

everyone is different but I can note that this has helped me.
 
Way more or whey more?

That climate change expert guy is also a nutritionist.

 
This holds true for many different nutrients, not just protein, if you have deficiencies, you will want to eat until you get what you need.
 
Missed opportunity for "whey more protein".

Cannot interact with this thread any further until it is corrected.

Almost at 100kg, will care when I reach it
Almost at 70kg :eek: will care when I reach 100kg.
 
Every time I turn on my TV
They tell me something else is bad for me
Well you can't do this and you can't eat that
They say it caused cancer in a few lab rats

Well the water's all poison and the air is too
And if that ain't enough there's a new swine flu
Yeah the planet's heating up so we're all gonna fry
But ain't nobody getting outta this world alive

No I ain't gonna worry, I ain't gonna fret
Have another drink and a cigarette
As long as we're here we might as well have a ball
'Cause sooner or later, something's gonna get us all
 
R50 is on The Science™ soon blaming the increasing number of cardiovascular cases being attributable to increased protein intake.

You should have dumped the BSB and had a solo career
