Protein is good - shock research

Fascinating to see research which suggests protein is better for us than carbohydrate, and it makes us feel happier at an organic level (in other words, not hungry any more).

But then this information has been obvious for years. So now the information is "proven" the next step is, more research! Yes, they now have to reconfirm that a high-protein diet is okay (read "make sure we can stay politically correct even though we are telling people the truth").

Just in case the researchers are really dumb, or have very limited knowledge, suggest they look at a few societies and civilisations which had high-protein diets for hundreds if not thousands of years:

native american indians (surprise, they did not live on Special K)

australian aboriginies (surprise, they did not live on 3-cheese pizza)

eskimos of a few hundred years ago (surprise, they did not live on tofu)
