So there's nothing healthy about it if you're trying to lose weight.

Now, there are ways that you can eat frequently and still lose weight.

I'm not saying that.

Like there's ways you can sort of get around it and stuff.

But if you're conditioning yourself to be eating constantly, right, then you're sort of fighting an uphill battle from many sort of standpoints in that, hey, you've got like, you know, all these things sort of aimed against you.

Why don't you just go back to the 70s and eat three meals a day of real food, right?

And now, of course, people are talking about proteins.

You have to make sure you get enough protein, right?

Yeah.

I think that there's some truth to that, I think, because proteins are going to activate a lot of GLP-1, for example.

So the GLP-1 is a satiety signal.

So when you eat proteins, you're going to activate satiety signaling.

So that's a good thing.

Also, if you're eating proteins rather than carbohydrates, again, that's displacing something else.

So I think it can certainly work.

Now,

The question is, you know, how much protein, right, is really the question.

And it's always a difficult question because, you know, the high protein, if you're eating natural foods, right, and you're eating a lot of protein, then you're probably doing okay.

should you like supplement protein like you see these days, right?

High protein coffee.
