Reply With QuoteYes, this is true, this is exactly why during a dieting phase you need to consume more protein because some will inevitably be wasted.

Body burning Protein instead of Fats??!!
I was reading on another forum that if you do a low carb low fat high protein diet that your body will start to burn protein for energy and actually store the fat your eating is this true?
I thought protein was the last hope for fuel as far as the body is concerned with carbs and fats being at the top.

Thats ratio is fine. If you would like to lessen the risk of muscle burning take amino acids and glutamine. This will save the incomplete proteins. Although they are normally completed when you eat it with a complete source. Rather be safe than sorry. Just my 2 cents.

Just take in a gram and a half of protein per pound of bodyweight as a rule and bump it up a few of the days of the week.You`ll be OK it`s just a bit of overanalyzing.
