A low-protein diet is used as a therapy for inherited metabolic disorders, such as phenylketonuria and homocystinuria, and can also be used to treat kidney or liver disease. Low protein consumption appears to reduce the risk of bone breakage, presumably through changes in calcium homeostasis. [1]
In fact one systematic review and meta-analysis published in Nutrients in 2021, which compared plant protein versus animal protein when it comes to lean muscle mass, found that there was a ...
Participants with higher plant-to-animal protein ratios showed a significantly reduced risk of CVD compared to those who had the lowest plant-to-animal protein ratio – they had a 19% lower risk.
A 30-year study found that those who ate a higher ratio of plant-based protein compared to animal-based protein had a 19% lower risk of cardiovascular disease and a 27% lower risk of coronary ...
According to one 2009 review updated in 2018, people with chronic kidney disease who reduce protein consumption have less likelihood of progressing to end stage kidney disease. [ 47 ] [ 48 ] Moreover, people with this disease while using a low protein diet (0.6 g/kg/d - 0.8 g/kg/d) may develop metabolic compensations that preserve kidney ...
Even diets of mild protein undernutrition (7.2%) have been shown to have lasting and significant effects in rats. The following are some studies in which prenatal protein deficiency has been shown to have unfavorable consequences. Decreased brain size: Protein deficiency has been shown to affect the size and composition of brains in rhesus monkeys.
A whole food, plant-based diet may help some people with kidney disease. [40] A high protein diet from either animal or plant sources appears to have negative effects on kidney function at least in the short term. [41]
This versatile plant protein is full of fiber, iron and antioxidants. ... heart disease, diabetes and more. Plant-based proteins contain negligible saturated fat, especially compared to animal ...
