spatzcat Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Does anyone know if a high protien diet can cause night sweats? Quote Never let your fear decide your fate. Link to comment
Loren Wade Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I eat high protein and don't get them. Anything behind the question? Quote lobro's a druid? twitter | fb Link to comment
wildross Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I've had co workers talking about sweating after they've gone to "meat" restaurants (the Argentine/South American ones with the big skewers). Not sure if that was the meat, the spices or the alcohol though... Quote Warriors don't count reps and sets. They count tons.

notanartmajor Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Some people just sweat easily, myself included. Especially at night. Beds man, they're hot. Quote Link to comment
oystergirl Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I get night sweats but that is because I am 48 years old. I get MORE of them if i eat anything with gluten in it, have a cigarette after not smoking in a long time, and the night after I have had alcohol. If you are eating a diet VERY heavy in feedlot beef, you can be getting some extra hormones and any time your estrogen shifts you can get the sweats. If this is a one time thing, it could be that you were just really warm one night. Quote The real world is bizarre enough for me....Blue Oyster Cult! Oystergirl: Bad Assed Lightcaster (aka wizard!)

spatzcat Posted March 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 maybe it's a hormone thing. right before aunt flo, for a few days it happens, then about a week before I ovulate i get them really bad. I wasn't sure if it was a hormone thing, or a protein thing...on work out days I tend to eat alot of protein and not very much sugar/carbs and sometimes on those days, I sweat myself silly while I'm sleeping...annoying.

notanartmajor Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 About the ingested hormone thing: Bovine growth hormone is brought into the system via the stomach, and is merely broken down by digestion rather than processed like an injection would be. In any case, human cells don't recognize bovine hormones.That said, spatz, it sounds like your ladyparts are turning up the thermostat on you. Quote Link to comment
Morrigainz Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I get night sweats, sometimes really bad. But I think it has to do with a combination of the type of mattress I have and my blankets, because I don't seem to get (as) sweaty in other beds. Quote Level ?

bigm141414 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I get meat sweats when eating bacon. But that may be because it gets me hot and bothered..... <.< As to your original question nope but since I've lost weight I tend not to sweat much anymore (well at odd times that is).

aj_rock Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Meat protein takes the most energy to digest. You produce a helluva lot of heat while digesting meat, especially if you like it on the rarer side... Not to mention, as wildross said, high meat meals from restaurants tend to give you calories in the levels of the 1500+... you have a huge surplus of energy and some of it will go straight into the metabolic fire... turning up the heat so to speak Quote Why must I put a name on the foods I choose to eat and how I choose to eat them? Rather than tell people that I eat according to someone else's arbitrary rules, I'd rather just tell them, I eat healthy. And no, my diet does not have a name.My daily battle log! Link to comment

RadRanger Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 I've heard of it happening immediately after ingesting a huge quantity of meat. Might just be a nutrient rush though.

Denny Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 I've found intense exercise and dinner with a lot of nutrition and protein makes me sweat like a madman, no fun to change sheets because they're drenched. Maybe this happens due to a mix of recovery and digestion? Quote -> Dead Athletes Don't Lie -> John Cleese on Creativity -> Digital addiction and the chaotic mind My Bucket List Link to comment
