Hi, What is the NHE diet you were referring to? I would be interested in reading it, since I have found a similar ratio to be useful (having experimented with a few ratio's such as 'zone' etc.) reg., DEan. >>He recommends a minumum of 15 gr and a maximum of 50 gr of protein per meal. Fat should be moderate, ie not in excess of the amount of proteins consumed and 30 gr of carb per day on the low carb cycle >>
