I probably don't get enough. I should probably have more, but I know I definitely don't get enough protein.

I think there's a historical context for it. I think back in the 80s and 90s, fat was really the demonized macronutrient. And then going into the early 2000s, you started having the Atkins diet, the keto diet, which focused on trying to be as low carb as possible. So I think protein is really the only macronutrient that's never been villainized.

And so a lot of people view it kind of as a safe source of nutrition.

And I think a lot of this also comes from social media. Like if you are on social media, health can be kind of measured by aesthetics versus maybe like less visible indicators of health. So, you know, no one is going to see if you, you know, are really regular because you eat a lot of fiber, but they can see if you have built a lot of muscle because you're eating a ton of protein.

So I think that's definitely a factor as well.

I think the idea of not having a restrictive diet is so big now because we've seen the damage that restrictive diets can do to people's both physical and mental health. I think it really is a lot of times about weight loss. Eating a high-protein diet is supposed to be correlated with eating fewer calories overall because protein is satiating.

Yeah, I mean, I think the masculinity point is a really big one. I think you can also see kind of like a strain of alt-right, like white nationalism there as well. There's an anonymous social media personality and author called The Raw Egg Nationalist who kind of came from the bodybuilder community.
