PROTEIN has somehow developed a very bad reputation, probably due to its unfair association with the popular “high protein” diets people have been using to lose weight.
It has to be stressed that protein is the most important of the three major nutrients, the other two being fats and carbohydrate diets. I want to defend protein as part of a low carbohydrate diet where little or no refined carbohydrate is consumed. Refined carbohydrates are foods like rice, bread, noodles and roti canai.
