side effects of high protein diet?

Any one know anything about high protein diets side effects?

I've upped my protein levels quite a lot recently and since I have I've had swollen glands in my neck and there very sore. I've also developed an ache in my stomach between my abs and obliques on the right side.

Oh and my 'you know what' is a right old mess if you know what I mean

My mrs recons its down to the huge increase in protein. But she would say that because she's not overly keen on me getting bigger.

Look at it this way.. U are trying to say that high protein intake is making u sick...which it isnt,BUT the thing i have noticed(when i had an idiot trainer which probably smoked tampons before he trained me so he had me on NO carbs and all protein) is that ur immune
system becomes crappy and ur body starts getn weaker. U would notice strenght losses too.(slight maybe but they are there).
Are u talking bout erections too? Thats ur testosterone going dwn because u are stealing ur body of its natural carbs and fats.

U are becoming a weak man(immune system blah blah) and nature made sure u cannot reproduce ! Crazy i know. THat is my theory. U cant sell it.. hehe
So u dont get erections. It always happens to me on my depletion fase in my last week of prep for a comp.

O, back to the question.. Are u taking in any carbs? whats ur diet? Be open to get help

I hope it helps.

Researchers have found that consuming foods high in animal protein, saturated fat, eggs and dairy could lead to an increased risk of developing non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), a cancer that attacks the lymphatic system-part of the body's immune system.

But these risks become apparent when carbohydrates are cut from the diet. as long as your getting your 5 a day (or more) fruit and veg, and the recommended amount of carbohydrates you will be fine.

But as always I say get your self down the doctors to have a professional check you over.

I know mate I was just backing you up.

You mean to tell me I could end up; with cancer from eating a high protein diet?

I think you'll find this will only occur in extreme cases when carbs and more importantly fruit and veg are eliminated for you diet too. Am I right?

Yes mate,u are right. But wel said with EXTREME cases. Dont get too worried,just sort out your diet. U would have heard about it if people actaully got cancer from a high protein diet. I think the media would have liked that 1.

Dont think so tho.
