The Power of Protein

The Power of Protein

Having the right amount of protein in your diet is of utmost importance. Protein is a key success factor in weight loss because it can help keep your metabolism up and keep hunger at bay. Protein intake helps to control
appetite and maintain lean body mass. The more lean body mass you have, the higher your metabolism and the
more calories you’ll burn. Eating the right amount of protein for your body helps control your appetite and build
and maintain lean muscle mass, thus making weight loss easier.

Protein helps you to manage your weight in two important ways:

Hunger Control: Protein-rich shakes, meals and snacks help control hunger because protein is digested slowly and it sends a message to the brain that the body is full and satisfied.
 
Fat Burning: Eating the right amount of protein daily helps maintain and build lean body mass as you lose
weight, which in turn keeps your metabolism up, so you continue to burn fat.

Protein + healthy carbohydrates = success.
The right amount of protein combined with healthy fruits and vegetables result in less hunger and a more balanced approach to losing weight. You need protein to stay strong and healthy. If you don’t eat enough of it every day, your body will steal protein from your muscles and organs.
 
Remember, not all protein is created equal. 15% to 35% of your diet should belean protein. Some sources of protein also have a lot of fat and should be avoided.
