During fat burning with very low carb intake the situation is different. An increased protein intake (even if not high) reduces autophagy and as we age this should not be done as we need to do lots of repair.
I do however agree with you that everyone is different and you have to do what you feel is best for you. The only difference between the Atkins induction phase and Rosedale's diet is the protein intake. So, if you are on Atkins induction and watching your protein, you are more conducting a Rosedale diet than an Atkins diet. But these are just names. I think that unfortunately Atkins died too early (about 2002) and probaly wasn't familiar with Rosedale's work. I have not been able to find anyone contradicting Rosedale's ideas with logical reasoning. |
Yes, we all respond differently to foods consumed, and Rosedale doesn't have a monopoly on recommended protein quantities, here are a few links to the research/information referenced earlier by Bikman and Naiman. The last two are previews, as the full videos can be accessed with a DietDoctor membership (which can be had as a trial for a month at no charge):

This may or may not help you. As mentioned, I've bumped up my protein consumption, not significantly, and still measure good ketone production. If the increased protein consumption resulted in significant gluconeogenesis, one would expect ketone production to decrease. Note the caveats by Bikman when a low carber consumes more protein. Hope you find the information you're seeking. All the best.
