    As far as I know (and I am not an authority on this matter at all), high protein is a fairly good idea. You need it for muscle growth and repair, and it generally helps to keep you feeling full for a long time.

    HOWEVER… You still need to be eating the other good stuff too. So like boosting a salad with some scoops of high protein cottage cheese? Probably a great idea, and much better than normal dressing. Eating a cereal that’s probably mostly carbs with added milk protein? Far less ideal. Using that same cereal as a crunchy booster topping on a yogurt with some fruit? Back to great idea again.
