Topic: Protein diet, appetite control & Weight loss: Does the science work?

This week you learned about protein catabolism, transamination and  (glucogenic and ketogenic) amino acid oxidation.You also learned about  the importance of the urea cycle in the removal of the toxic ammonia  waste product.
