Isn’t the optimum ratio of fat/carbs/protein 40%/40%/20% ?
People should focus on eating ‘good’ fats and ‘good’ carbs tho, then it probably doesn’t matter which you eat more of… apparently the eskimo diet is very healthy - mostly whale blubber, full of omega oils tho![/quote]
There are many “optimal” diets, both person to person as well as within the same person but at different points in their lives, depending on their hormonal milieu at the time. [/quote]
Which ratio would be good for increasing hormone levels?

Low fat diets tend to increase SHBG levels. Probably upping your fats from 20% to say 30% of total calories. So something like 40/30/30. Also including more saturated fats for your fat sources this has been proven to boost free T levels in men. So adding some Cream, Butter, Shredded Coconut, Cheese.

Considering that a typical slice of cheese is roughly 20g i don’t think that’s a lot. Just depends on the fat content of the cheese itself. If it’s full fat or light/fat-free.
Full fat. So yeah it’s probably only 30g of fat. The meat eaters in my office are always like ‘oh thats soo much cheese’ but i think they forget i’m vegetarian. I’m eating eggs everyday now too
