That’s interesting, given that Valter Longo’s Longevity Diet recommends protein as 10% of total calories. (Of course, optimizing offspring for efficient calorie processing when protein is limited may be a good idea in evolutionary time frames.)
I wonder what protein is as a % of calories in average forage for a wild mouse. Also, I wonder how well the lab mouse model reflects human outcomes for comparable diets.
Thanks for looking to reach out! I try to reply to every single email I get (really!), but sometimes it takes a little while or some messages just fall through the cracks, usually by accident.
