In this episode I speak with doctor and author of The PE diet, Dr Ted Naiman. While we already know that protein consumption is important for our health Dr Naiman emphasises the importance of the proportion or ratio of protein to energy in our diets. If we get that ratio incorrect the beneficial impact of protein in our diets can be reduced and our metabolism suffers.

We discuss how to leverage protein intake to optimise our body composition and our health.Dr Naiman lays out the optimum human diet in terms of macronutrients.

We find out how vegans and vegetarians can leverage their respective diets, to maximise dietary protein for their metabolic benefit.

We find out what role exercise plays in optimising our health.

Plus we discuss practical ways of tracking our protein and thereby protein to energy ratios.
