Animal studies also suggest that
high carb low
protein diets maximise longevity: «The healthiest diets were the ones that had the lowest
protein, 5 to 10 to 15 per cent
protein, the
highest amount of carbohydrate, so 60, 70, 75 per cent carbohydrate, and a
reasonably low fat
content, so less than 20 per cent,» Professor Le Couteur said.»
