Like other men, I need just 56 grams of complete protein per day, according to the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine. Most adult women need 46 grams, according to the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine. Pregnant women and nursing mothers need 71 grams. The Food and Nutrition Board defines complete protein as “Protein from animal sources such as meat, poultry, fish, eggs, milk, cheese, and yogurt provide all nine indispensable amino acids, and for this reason are referred to as ‘complete protein.’”

What’s wrong with getting more protein than that? Unless you have kidneys that are already damaged, I am not one of those who think that a high-protein diet would be hard on them. But we do have some evidence that a surplus of protein turns into glucose. Two studies are “Protein Controversies in Diabetes ” and “Effect of Protein Ingestion on the Glucose Appearance Rate in People with Type 2 Diabetes .”
How much protein turns into glucose remains in question. Our bodies can convert protein into glucose, “but very slowly and inefficiently,” writes Dr. Richard K. Bernstein in Dr. Bernstein’s Diabetes Solution.
