It’s really sad the way so many Americans even still hold so many goofy ideas about nutrition.
The number of people that believe there is some kind of protein (and fat) deficiency going on in America, I tell ya…it’s to the point where even some menus now tell you how many grams of protein are in this or that, as if protein is some kind of superfood. All it makes me think of is all the tools saying “it’s got electrolytes!” in Idiocracy.
And when it comes to things like milk (and steak. or hamburgers, etc.) things get positively ridiculous. I bet it gets a whole lot dumber for as long as Republicans have any semblance of power in any state in this country. Two states have banned vat grown meat, because of “wokeness” <- well, that is what they tell their dumbass supporters, but it’s probably due to lobbyist money. Some people want to regulate what is called “milk”, giving the same kind of reasons (stick it to the “soy boys”).
It’s also helpful if you’re on a specific diet and can see the breakdown. Example being putting on muscle, you’re supposed to eat 1.2g per lb you weigh to help gain muscle mass (obviously while doing the required work).

More protein means more satiation. In other words, if you eat more protein, instead of carbs, you’ll feel “full” sooner. source
