RE: You can use Soylent for precision nutrition and for caloric control

Hi Dana, Thanks for sharing the info, I just read both articles.

How does the protien intake formula vary if some at a higher body weight (or high bmi) is trying to lose weight?

I've Up-Voted your articles. I enjoy heath related posting, please keep sharing.

That is why I created a max calorie deficit calculator which says that the percentage of body fat determines how much you are at risk of losing muscle. If you are very high body fat (regardless of BMI) then you can afford to consume low or even no protein and you won't lose muscle until your fat stores decrease.

Hi Dana, Very good article, technical but I like it, when I'm free I'll take the time to go back and look at your older articles. They are useful.

I'm guessing you're a bit of an old school programmer, very cool.

Once I get the time to buy some steem (new to crypto) and transfer it into my account, I'll start auto upvoting your post so I don't miss them. Keep it steeming,you're really adding value to this community.

Honestly I can't imagine steem going down to 0.5...unlikely with such value being added every minute of the day by amazing posters like you. Cheers!
