Over the past several years, I\\u2019ve noticed a subtle shift in the way the media\\xa0discusses dietary protein, with many experts promoting lower intakes. The push for lower intakes hasn\\u2019t only come from the mainstream crowing about red meat and colon cancer. Many voices from the alternative health communities are urging a reduction in protein. Even the ancestral health community counts among its ranks protein skeptics.

Am I one? I\\u2019m not sure. In past posts, I\\u2019ve discussed how my own tastes have changed, going from eating high protein to more moderate amounts.

Today I\\u2019m addressing the standard arguments levied against high protein intakes. Hopefully, we can get to the bottom of the issue.
