Vanity Fair: People Are Eating More Protein Because of Right Wing Extremist MAGA Politics
Oh no, men are eating meat and, as usual, liberal women want to monitor men and correct them.
Big Protein. Perfect.
TikTok content creators are hawking powders from Just Move and Ryse. Netflix is teasing its documentary Untold: The Liver King, which tracks the rise and fall of the raw-meat enthusiast, out later this month. Influential podcast bros, from the physician Peter Attia to the very well-paid Joe Rogan, swap protein-heavy diet anecdotes and share their "current state of protein supplementation." One of this year's most talked about shows, season three of The White Lotus, derived a whole thread of narrative tension from what can only be described as Chekhov's protein shake. For decades, an American protein mania has been building. This year, it may be hitting its peak. News and takes have abounded, from Vogue's "4 Signs You're Not Getting Enough Protein" and Grub Street's deep dive on added-protein foods to The New Yorker's profile of a protein bar company and The New York Times' fact-check of "big protein claims."
"I don't have a good sense on what's driving that right now, other than if it's just the usual manosphere--or manomania, here in the United States," says Pieter Cohen, an internist at Cambridge Health Alliance and associate professor at Harvard Medical School who leads the center's Supplement Research Program. "Everyone's letting their testosterone out these days." One thing he's noticed: More men than women arrive at his office "interested in protein."Oh no, men are interested in having high testosterone, not the low testosterone that liberal women prefer.
It's not only men who care about protein, but a mosey through recent history suggests a strong correlation between the rise of the likes of the men's rights movement and our national lust for protein--which is how we got to the quagmire of contradiction wherein a "manosphere" helmed by Donald Trump (he of the diet dubbed by his own health secretary, the admittedly often incorrect Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to be "really, like, bad") has such a vocal contingent of intense protein-maxing "health" obsessives. The intertwinement of masculinity and red meat (and its attendant health properties, namely protein) is strong and deep-seated. A 2023 study found that men were "more likely to eat foods to the extent that those foods were perceived as higher in masculinity and lower in femininity," which correlated with foods that were seen as higher in protein. Another, from this year, found that men who have what they describe as a strong "meat-eating identity" also "tend to perceive themselves as more masculine." An obsession with protein affords a masculine-coded cover on the feminine-coded world of body image and dieting--and a subject over which men can bond as bros. ... Cohen also points me to the work of his Harvard colleague S. Bryn Austin, in the Social and Behavioral Sciences department at the School of Public Health, who is the founding director of a research and training program dedicated to eating disorder prevention. In 2022, she coauthored a paper examining young men's use of protein supplements. Its findings warn clinicians to "be aware of their male patients' use of protein powders and muscle-building supplements," which pose "acute and long-term physical and psychological consequences." Last year, one of her coauthored studies found that muscle-building supplements formed a pipeline to anabolic steroids in young men.Oh no, another "pipleine" to right-wing radicalism.
The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for protein is 0.36 grams per pound of bodyweight, but some popular online health experts, like Attia, who advises David Protein and has invested in the protein-forward deer meat company Maui Nui Venison, recommends far greater levels. He says that his practice aims for one gram per pound of bodyweight. (Andrew Huberman has called this a good starting point--though one of his own supplements of choice, and a financial incentive, is AG1, which contains a measly two grams of protein per serving.)AG1 is the new name for Athletic Greens, a supplement for getting all of your nutrition from vegetables that you might not get if you're on a mostly-meat diet. So of course it doesn't contain much protein. It's all greens. This is "journalism" today.
Thank you so much for spotlighting this important study.
Big Protein may have come for all of us. Mary Claire Haver and Gabrielle Lyon are prominent pro-protein online personalities who target their content toward women, and an informal poll floated to an active group chat found that the respondent protein-supplement enthusiasts had women slightly outnumbering the men (sample size: five).
TikTok is rife with people of all genders ranking (and selling) Ryse protein and eating (and selling) David Protein bars. But on TikTok, at least, the videos tend to conform to aesthetic gender norms. The men often show up in tank tops that reveal bulging biceps, hefting tubs of the powder, while the women cook through "what I eat in a day" videos in sports bras and tight pants showcasing abs and what one user describes as "a flat stomach and fat butt."How are you doing GAINZZZ-wise? I'm getting back on track after a bad couple of months. In the beginning of the year I was losing a lot of weight while barely doing anything so I kept that strict regime of barely doing anything up. But then, get this, my Program of barely doing anything stopped resulting in lower weight, and actually began putting weight on me.

If we do, we're shit. So don't fall for it. Eat what you decide is best for you, wear what you like, sit how you like, etc.
As far as I'm concerned a meat and potatoes diet used to be standard fare but knowledge about the effects of excess starches and carbs has made me cut back on those items. Metabolic syndrome, anyone?
That leaves meat. Oh darn, the sacrifice.

A lot of sky-is-falling rhetoric going around about those, but not only has mine made me lose a ton of weight, I'm now completely off insulin.
If it causes people to develop toenail cancer or something 30 years down the line, I don't give a crap. I'm unlikely to be around that long. I'll take that risk if it means not having to inject myself with insulin every day and do finger sticks several times a day.

Good for you MAE! Ace, my Gainzzz are that I lost 5 lbs over a couple of weeks, buy doing similar to Mark above.
The system is basically real whole foods. I've cut out a ton of carbs, mainly pasta, bread and pastries. Which is tough for me. Cut out a ton of processed sugar too. I'll use honey to sweeten stuff, like oatmeal or Greek yogurt.
Basically trying to eat stuff without seed/vegetable oils and sugar (and other ingredients that aren't natural). For example, I bought natural peanut butter that is just peanuts and salt. It's not bad actually!
And it's too soon to see how the trend plays out, but my blood pressure has gone down too. From 140-150's/80-90's to around 120's-130's/80's. I think it will keep going down as I continue.
Also, I'm considering getting some bloodwork done as a baseline to check triglycerides, etc...
Posted by: haffhowershower at May 09, 2025 05:58 PM (144I4)
And I prefer to get my protein from food rather than supplements. There's really no reason to resort to powders when I can eat eggs, beef, salmon and other fish, chicken, lamb now and then ... I try for 20-50 grams of protein per meal. Any more than that is a waste for my size and activity level. Too much less than that is not good, since there is no substitute for protein for building and repairing tissue. The FDA recommended level is inadequate in the long term.

I refuse to get Metamucil, so I'm trying to adjust my diet to get the required 25 grams of fiber daily. It's not easy, and I eat more now than I have since I was a teenager, but I don't gain any weight because it all just goes straight through me.
My colon is slowly getting used to pushing concrete through me, but it has been an uneven process. Once I get the bikes cleaned up, I'll probably lose a few more pounds and be at my Basic Training weight.

I cut my sugar to literally just altoids which I don't enjoy at all which is the point. Eventually they will stop. Like you I still bake bread. In fact I have english muffins on the go as we speak. I tend to each starch only with protein.
The best thing about cutting or eliminating sugar is the energy boost. Everyone I convince to do it comes back to me and can't believe how they feel after just a couple weeks.

So of course, 50% of Men, almost ALL older men, are on perpetual medication to lower their Cholesterol.
Almost like... there is a connection there.... as big Pharma has a perpetual money stream, based on the myth that all Cholesterol is bad... and so talk Doctors into continuously lowering the amount of cholesterol before they put you on meds...

And I prefer to get my protein from food rather than supplements. There's really no reason to resort to powders when I can eat eggs, beef, salmon and other fish, chicken, lamb now and then ... I try for 20-50 grams of protein per meal. Any more than that is a waste for my size and activity level. Too much less than that is not good, since there is no substitute for protein for building and repairing tissue. The FDA recommended level is inadequate in the long term.

BMI is not that useful. Muscle is far heavier than fat. For me, I have a lot of muscle. I weigh about 165 which is 25 pounds more than college but still bench 350 and other weight stats about the same as then. But I'm getting shorter. Over 1 inch the lat few years. So my BMI is going up. But not much visibly fatter.

It is. Genetics and extra body fat have a higher impact on serum cholesterol than dietary cholesterol.
I'm pretty healthy but had persistently elevated cholesterol and triglycerides. I switched from a high-carb, low-cholesterol diet to a high-cholesterol, low-carb keto diet and my numbers immediately jumped into line. So I think eating carbs also causes the problem.

I've told this story before, but I lived in a community with non-fluoridated water for several years, and then they started adding fluoride. Before the fluoride, we had mostly normal-sized people with lots of skinny ones as well, and a few fatties. After fluoride, nearly everyone gained 30 pounds. We had mostly fatties with some normals and a few skinnies.
I ended up on thyroid meds. Thanks, Karens!

It is entirely possible to be both underweight or in the green as far as BM and “fat” from the technical standpoint one needs to increase muscle mass.
Still, fat people should lose the 75 or 150 or 250 pounds of blubber as soon as practicable. Shouldn’t need a chart or anything to figure that out.

Yeah, but this is bullshit. Muscle weighs more than fat. If you are easily mistaken for an NFL linebacker, than it’s OK, maybe you’d have a point.
Generally speaking - Anybody who weighs more than 180 or 190 (without being seriously fit and working out) regardless of height. Meaning most people most places most times.

It's interesting that bring that up. I've always lived in a community area that includes country and urban areas pretty close. The country areas have their own wells. Urban has water treatment with fluoride. And, invariably, the urban folks are more overweight that less healthy.
Fluoride has been proven to disrupt various natural body processes (including the natural creation of testosterone). There are actual studies that show that fluoride causes increases in depression and weight gain.
The reason I'm suspect of the whole process is that just about every bottled water product includes fluoride, and they don't have to list it in ingredients...and the dive in testosterone seems to have corresponded with the popularity of bottled water.

They did blood work, all was good. He said I had a little bit high bad cholesterol, but my good cholesterol was very high (and good).
So he prescribed 10mg lisinopril. The day after I took it my bp went from 150/85 to 120/80. It upset my stomach a bit, but that seems to have subsided. So I still need to exercise more, but lately getting in 8k to 10k steps, in farm prep for soybeans and other spring stuff.
And still doing mild keto, 1.1 ketone reading yesterday, 0.9 glucose ... all is well.

I'm convinced that IF we stick to natural foods, then what tastes good is what our body needs at that time.
It's our reward for eating right... Problem is, that we have chemically created crap, that our body says MIMICS the taste of what we need... but is unhealthy.
Like, our body likes fruit, which has a sweet taste... fruit that our body needs, but then we create chemicals and pure sugar, and make that sweet taste in Ice Cream... instead of much healthier fruit.
Steak tastes good because it is one thing our body needs... which is why it cracks me up when Vegans make plant based things that MIMIC the taste of meat.

I don't eat Butter.
I switched to Coconut Oil a long time ago.
Butter IS bad, especially heated/melted butter because the heat rearranges the molecules. Really.

They were really hoping to kill more of us in 2020.
They knew what HCQ did, which is why legislation banned the use outside of a hospital (which then refused to administer it).
They never said boo about or to India which gave out free Ivermectin with a diagnosis, and had great success with that treatment.
They learned and kinda knew what ventilators would do.
They rely on the ignorance and incuriosity of the average Dem to never learn these things.

Blue Bunny ice cream company has a product out called "Twist", in a few flavors, that's a mix of two ice creams that are as close to soft-serve as I've ever eaten coming out of a pint.
It's not quite as milkshake-ish as a Frosty, but the flavor is dead on the same.
I just had some and it's quite good.
Blue Bunny is here in the south, not sure if it's around the other parts of the country.

It's the crap they put into pasta, bread and flour. You can go to Italy and eat pasta every day and nothing will happen. You might even lose weight. You can to to France and eat 3 medium sized delicious baguettes every day, and you might even lose weigh. But in the US, you blow you like a porky pig.

If you take drugs, any drug, to help lose weight and you do not take the time to completely change your lifestyle while the drug tricks you into eating less, you are wasting your time and effort. You have to change it all. You also need to be very aware that glp1 meds cause muscle loss, if the reward is greater than the risk- meaning you are very, very overweight, please incorporate both weight work and cardio into your loss plan because your heart is a muscle.

As a child I used to be absolute disgusted by cooked egg white taste. No easter eggs, no over easy...my mom persevered and she found that only eggs super soft boiled so the white was mostly clear and slimy. It disgusted her but she had to get me some eggs in from the mom handbook.
I lost the reaction to it somewhere along the line.

I ate 1200 calories (balanced veg and meat, but low carb) and went from 219 down to 175 over about eight months with a two mile walk every day. It sucked moose cock. Always hungry, never sleeping well, grumpy. I gained it all back. Now I'm happy, sleep better, and walking sometimes...when my new knee lets me.
My basic training weight was 119 pounds. I weighed 135 when i resigned my cw2 commission 10-ish years later. There's no way in hell I'll ever be 119 again, unless it's a fleeting day or so as my decaying body rots in the grave.
