Whey Protein and Weight Loss
When it comes to building muscle, the most important part of the diet is protein. It is a building block of muscle tissue. If you want to build strong and lasting muscle, consider the benefits of whey protein.
Protein is one of the staples of a strong diet along with carbohydrates and fats. Eating them in the proper proportions will help you to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight. As you get older, the body loses muscle mass. Building muscle becomes even more crucial for stability, longevity and proper body functioning.
Consider Whey Protein?
Do you remember the Little Miss Muffet nursery rhyme? She sat on her tuffet eating curds and whey. Whey is produced when you are making cheese. It is the top layer that is separated out. This is a pure kind of protein that has many benefits to the body, especially for those who are trying to build muscle.
Now whey protein is not just for body builders. Muscle is important at all stages of life. To help muscles recover from a workout, whether cardio or a strength training routine, it needs protein for the repair and rebuild. Whey protein provides the most branched-chain amino acids for optimum return.
Well, you might be saying that protein is not hard to come by and you?d be right. Of all the nutrients in your diet, protein is the one that is most often not lacking. You find protein in many sources: meat, dairy, eggs, green leafy vegetables and seafood. But, the quality of protein is what differs. Animal protein contains a measure of fat as well as the protein.
Whey Protein and Weight Loss...
Think about how hard it is to lose weight. As you age, it doesn?t get any easier. Whey protein as a daily protein source can help with that. Adding protein at every meal helps to balance your blood sugar. It eases those cravings for sweets and other unhealthy foods in the middle of the day. Your blood sugar is more even, just like eating complex carbs but without the added sugar intake. You can concentrate on eating healthier and getting the exercise you need to increase your weight loss.
The Body Focus? Essentials Whey Protein Powder
Whey protein is a pure, natural, high quality protein that is derived from cow?s milk. Milk contains two proteins, casein and whey; whey accounts for approximately 20% of the total protein content of milk. Whey is the liquid leftover after pressing the milk solids into cheese. This liquid is then filtered and purified. Once the purification is complete, the water is removed and it is then made into a powder. Historically, whey was considered an expendable by-product of cheese manufacturing. However, more recently, whey has proven to be an excellent source of protein with a high biological value.
Our Whey Protein Powder is available in creamy vanilla flavor (12.6 oz. offering 16 grams of protein per serving) and rich chocolate flavor (16.2 oz. offering 16 grams of protein per serving). As research continues, new information becomes available on the potential nutritional health benefits of whey supplementation.
