Why Protein???

The Role of Protein in Weight Loss and Weight Management

One nutrient that can help with weight loss and management is protein. It keeps muscle mass intact while reducing fat, increases calorie expenditure during digestion, and makes you feel fuller.

The Benefits of Protein for Losing Weight

  1. Keeps You Full: Consuming protein prolongs feelings of fullness, which lowers total caloric intake.

  2.  More Calories: Protein increases metabolism because it requires more energy to digest than fats or carbohydrates.

  3. Protects Muscle: Protein keeps muscle from being lost when weight is being lost.

How Much Protein Do You Need?

Aim for 1.2 to 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. Active people may need up to 2 grams per kilogram.



Best Protein Sources

  • Lean meats like chicken and turkey

  • Fish like salmon and tuna

  • Plant-based options like tofu and lentils

  • Dairy like Greek yogurt and cottage cheese

  • Nuts and sseeds




Conclusion

By increasing metabolism, maintaining muscle mass, and keeping you full, increasing protein intake can facilitate weight loss. For the greatest effects, incorporate a source of protein into each meal.

 Start Small, Stay Consistent When it comes to building healthy habits, consistency is more important than intensity—especially in the beginning. Choose any three days in a week to start your workout routine. Don’t push yourself too hard in the early stages; even a minimum effort is enough to set the foundation. Focus on improving your muscle strength, endurance, and overall stamina. Doing the same type of exercise every day can lead to boredom and imbalance—your body and muscles need variety. Target different muscle groups on different days to ensure balanced development and prevent fatigue. This approach will help you build a sustainable and effective workout schedule.
