What if the kind of protein you eat could help protect your kidneys even if you have type 2 diabetes? Now a new study has just revealed a game-changing insight. It's not just how much protein you eat, but what TYPES of amino acids you're feeding your body. Researchers looked at dietary patterns in adults with type 2 diabetes, and here's what they found. High total protein intake was associated with greater risk of diabetic kidney disease, BUT certain amino acids told a different story. And our ketogenic amino acids, like leucine and lysine. These specific amino acids were inversely linked to kidney disease risk. That means that the more people consumed THEM, the lower the risk appeared to be.
Why?
Ketogenic amino acids don't flood the body with nitrogen waste the same way other proteins can, and that's a big win for the already stressed kidneys.
So what does this mean? Foods rich in ketogenic amino acids like eggs, salmon, and beef might actually protect your kidneys even on a high protein diet. This isn't just about counting grams. It's about understanding the profile of your protein.

Using fraudulent PCR tests to crash the food supply. This is why the egg section in your grocery store is empty. Got chickens? How about a chicken coup? You need the protein, the choline, the sulfur, the vitamin A, E, and others from eggs. They are your daily multivitamins.
Yes!! But I keep mine fenced off my porch. I was on that barefoot. Everyone who has room and can handle caring for chickens SHOULD have them. They are awesome and WAY easier than you think. I have 20. Best decision ever. Look at my sweet Roo!! pic.twitter.com/JOTNwSsDGy
02:25 Highest quality source of protein other than breast milk. It has virtually every nutrient that you need. Its amino acid profile is complete. Its nutrients and amino acids are very bioavailable. The waste product from eggs is so minimal because you're utilizing all this great protein.
03:00 The protein you get from plant-based sources is actually pretty poor.
03:35. Here you have this meat that we've been eating for thousands of years it's not just nutrient-dense but if you're consuming something that's grass-fed and grass-finished, you are getting a very high source of protein that can greatly help you not just with your muscles but repair the proteins overall in general. Sometimes people think about proteins as just muscle, but you have all the enzymes in your body, the different metabolic pathways are all protein, a good portion of your skin is protein, a good portion of your bone is protein; your immune system is protein. So when we're trying to replenish and repair proteins, we need sufficient proteins and bioavailable sources that our body can really use efficiently. Eggs are at the top of the list.
One egg will give you 7 grams of protein and virtually every single nutrient. It may not give you all the vitamin C, but It will give you the B vitamins; vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, vitamin K1 and K2, and omega-3 fatty acids. So this is packed full of nutrients.
Other types of protein are just like muscle protein, but egg is a very unique source of protein.
05:05. Eggs contain Sphingomyelin. What is that? That's a compound that can help prevent plaquing in your vascular system. So if you're still hung up on this idea that eggs might clog your arteries, actually they don't; they actually prevent plaquing of your arteries.
05:22. Choline. Which is a really important nutrient that can help prevent a fatty liver in fact if you're deficient and choline you will get a fatty liver but Colin is also necessary for a healthy brain choline is a really good antidote to high cholesterol.
0543. Lutein and Zeaxanthin are two compounds that greatly support the macula of the eye, that is the back part of the eye. The macula helps you with central vision and also helps to act like a filter for UV radiation as well as filtering blue light there's a thing called age-related macular degeneration and these two compounds help prevent that condition.
The state of Georgia is responsible for about 15% of all poultry production in the United States and they just stopped ALL of it due to bird flu. Expect eggs and meat to get a lot more expensive, fast. --World Hall of Fun
IGOR is the name of the cheese, which is a milder Provolone. In fact, Whole Foods describes it as a "Mini Provolone Dolce," a sweet little provolone. It was good. No complaints. This cheese was a product of Italy. That good or bad? Depends on the manufacturer, but I've heard propaganda that the quality of produce in Italy is excellent. My one and only abiding concern about any cheese is the rennet, whether its made of a vegetarian Merck product or animal based from the farm. Fewer than 5% of cheeses will ever identify as animal rennet. Does that assume that the rennet is vegetable based? Probably. The cheese was $18.99/lb. I paid $6.46 for it so I got a 1/3lb.
Well, I ordered this meatloaf thinking it was made of beef. It was made of turkey. I just didn't catch it. It looked like the traditional beef meatloaf. The price wasn't listed so I was arguing with a recently immigrated middle-aged woman from God knows where who had no sense of customer service. She barely had a sense of her own incompetence. She said she didn't know the price. I asked don't you have a list of prices? Looking at me knowingly, she said she'd have to weigh it to find out what the price was. I said no. I said what's the price per pound? She said she didn't know. I said don't you have a list of prices on the items in your display case? And then she finally understood. The work an older man has to do nowadays just to get a lunch. So she looks for it. She finds it. She quotes me a price. $11.99/lb. I ordered half a pound. She was afraid she was going to have to cut the displayed slices to accommodate my 1/2 lb request. Turns out that each slice is approximately a half pound. She didn't know that. Then I see the tag. A tag is generated and attached only to completed orders. So I got 0.51 lbs for a price of $6.11. But I didn't get beef. When did Whole Foods start selling turkey meatloaf? Who eats turkey meatloaf? It has wheat in it, and I got a mild allergic reaction; that combined with the sugar probably caused that reaction. It is like a parlor trick nowadays ordering food. You're looking for the dangerous seed oil, only to be delighted by their absence only to realize you're still going to get sick from the sugar and grains. It's fun. : - /
The one good find I saw here at Whole Foods was their rotisserie chickens. The price of their chickens is $8.99 for a whole chicken. The ingredients list was simple--chicken, seasoning, and one other item. No word of Canola Oil anywhere. But I can't tell that if that's a good sign or a deliberate, marketing omission to skirt around the popular concerns about seed oils. King Soopers 8-piece baked [but loaded with a lot of unhealthy seasoning, including Canola Oil] costs $9.99. So Whole Foods is $1 cheaper.
How does a store that specializes in organic foods be this bad? This store has a 3-star review on Yelp. Not good. Not good for a high-end grocery store.
01:28. In fact it's difficult to heal and repair your body without animal protein, especially red meat and today I'm going to prove it in past videos I have talked about eggs and I eat a lot of eggs and eggs are awesome but if we compare eggs to me there is some significant differences and that's what I want to talk about.
01:48. Lots of benefits from having salmon and fish which I have once or twice a week salmon and sardines are very high in Omega-3 which is good, but red meat or beef has more protein and has a lot of other things that can help you heal. If we look at the whole picture, I will say out of all the things that are involved in the healing and repair process, we need amino acids. We need bioavailable protein, which is going to be animal protein and we need concentrated protein.
WHICH IS HEALTHIER, RED MEAT OR EGGS?
If we just compare red meat to eggs,
Red meat is twice as concentrated in amino acids.
Red meat has 1.5 times greater iron.
Red meat has 2.2x greater magnesium.
Beef has 3.7 times greater amounts of zinc.
Red meat has 50 times more vitamin B3 than eggs.
Red meat has double the amount of B1.
Beef has 4 times the amount of B6.
Red meat has twice the amount of B12.
Beef has 4 times the amount of vitamin K.
Red meat has 5 times the amount of omega-3 fatty acids.
So the ratios of red meat are going to be better. Not processed meat from factory farms things like deli meats bologna Etc he's talking about grass-fed beef.
Beef compared to chickens that are pasture-raised, the chickens are still fed grains, which kind of throws off the Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratios. That being said eggs are also a good source of protein. As a side note, beef liver has 73 times more vitamin A than eggs.
03:22 Another nutrient that eggs have that is better than beef is choline. Eggs have a little more than double the amount of B2.
12x more folate than in beef.
Beef has the X Factor, 4 X-Factors actually.
X-FACTOR #1: CARNITINE. Carnitine helps transport fats into your cells, into the energy Factory called the mitochondria to help you get more energy. Without carnitine, the cells can't get energy from fat. Carnitine gives you that quick energy when you're exercising and since we're talking about a really important transport of fuel to the mitochondria that is essential for healing and repair of your tissues, not only do we need all the essential amino acids as the raw material we also need other things like those vitamins.
If we compare 100 G of red meat to 100 G of eggs, the amount of carnitine would be 150 mg versus only 7 mg for eggs.
Lamb is #1 when it comes to carnitine content. Beef is #2.
X-FACTOR #2: CREATINE. Creatine gives us that quick energy.
There was a discussion on Alzheimer's
this morning on a subscription forum. One guy laid out a plan to improve
cognitive functioning. I have myself increased my egg
consumption, eating the eggs either over-easy or sunny side up to keep the yolk liquid. Keeping the yoke liquid means I retain all of the benefits from the
choline and cholesterol that the food police have advised against. Here
are his comments:
Here is a list. You
might want to print it out. There are two parts to this: diet and
supplementation.
DIET
Eat lots of eggs. Yes, that is correct. Lots. Soft-boiled, poached,
soft-scrambled, undercooked slowly in butter. No high-heat frying or
hard-boiling. Raw is okay, but it's best to cook the eggs somewhat. How many? 4-6
per day per 100 lbs. body weight. (Ex.: someone who weighs 200 lbs. should eat
8-12/ day. Your brain needs all the cholesterol you can give it, especially
when it has been deprived of it for decades from bad medical theories! This is
therapeutic nutrition we are talking about.
No fried foods. High-heat cooking and overheated fats and oils do a lot of
free-radical damage inside the body.
No burnt foods, especially meats. Medium rare is best. (Cancer risk is also
greatly reduced when you switch from well-done to medium rare.) Okay to boil in
soup until the meat falls off the bones, but no frying or well-done. No
well-done anything!
No processed meats: deli meats, lunch meats, ham, bacon, sausage,
etc.- nitrates, nitrites, and also fillers that are no good.
No vegetable oils--not even virgin coconut or olive (there are two camps on
this issue, pro-oil, anti-oil). They all turn into trans-fats once inside the
body. Oil is notoriously perishable and turns rancid quickly. Some people claim
positive results with coconut oil. I err on the side of caution.
Definitely NO hydrogenated fats or oils. Unless you like machine lubricant in
your diet.
Eat butter, cream, lard, avocado, and nuts for healthy fats.
NO GLUTEN: wheat, barley, rye, oats. Gluten intolerance is a hidden
pandemic that affects millions, if not tens of millions/ hundreds of millions of
people in this country. More Americans have gluten intolerance than they think:
We eat WAY too many grain products, wheat-based and otherwise. Eliminate as
much as possible. A little gluten-free is okay: rice, millet, buckwheat, flax,
for example. Corn is iffy because it is mostly GMO now.
That reminds me: NO GMO!
Eat fresh meats and poultry: grass-fed, free-range (local, organic, if
possible), wild-caught fish packed in water. No farmed fish.
A little fruit. A LOT of vegetables. Sweet potatoes are very good
nutritionally.
No sugar or corn syrup. Little to no honey, molasses, or "natural"
sweetener. The body gets all the sugar it needs from all of the above. Liquid
nutrition products given to infants and the elderly are famous for their high
fructose corn syrup and low nutritive value.
This is also a very good all-purpose, anti-inflammatory, anti-disease diet. Anyone would benefit from it. I follow it myself.
I would also skip vaccinations. Flu shots, shingles shots, etc. Too many
viruses, too many toxic preservatives and adjuvants. Too little benefit with
too many risks.
SUPPLEMENTS
I will have to come back to this. Time constraints! But I wanted to at least
post the dietary side first.
. . . Alzheimers is not genetic. For that matter, NO
disease is genetic. That is the latest trendy medical theory like bloodletting
and the low-fat/low cholesterol myth. Genetics can be influenced by
external-environmental factors. They are not etched in stone.
