I'm not saying people aren't getting enough protein... I use 80-120g as that's the range for a lean body weight of 220#, or 100kg - which is roughly my lean body weight (though mine is wrapped in a protective layer of fat). Also, getting up to 2x the suggested protein range (minimum is 0.8g:kg to 1.2g:kg) rarely has the complications you mention. I'm also not suggesting that people don't eat general plant food. I'm not big on refined foods overall though, and that includes refined vegetable oils. Most people are afraid of fat, and specifically animal fat for no good reason. Fatty cuts from grass fed ruminant animals are one of the lowest inflammation foods you can have and eating nose to tail is a very good nutrition balance. For every correlation survey based study associating disease to red meat, there is a much higher correlation to refined grains, sugars and oils. IMHO, people should eat closer to real/whole foods that they prepare themselves. And imho, this can and should include some meat, fish and plenty of eggs (another food staple that gets a lot of undue negative press). |

Just saying, if you weight 100kg, even if you would be 2 meters tall you would still be overweight.
You can check that according to any BMI calculator like this one https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/educational/lose_wt/BMI/bmi...
