Protein versus Carbohydrates?
‘Protein versus carbohydrate’ diets have recently attracted a lot of interest. The Dietitians Association of Australia does not recommend diets that are very low in carbohydrate and very high in protein. However there is a range of recommended carbohydrate and protein intakes that may assist with weight loss. What is right for you depends on your age, weight, sex and level of physical activity. An Accredited Practising Dietitian can tailor a healthy eating plan with the best amount of carbohydrate and protein specifically for you.
